I am gonna guess sarcasm as he is in everything.

Uncanny
X-men Legacy
Wolvie
Wolvie, origins
Wolvie first class
New avengers
Secret Invasion
X-force

Astonishing has just finished
He recently appeared in new warriors and amazing spidey and those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

He usually has a miniseries on the go and at least 1 guest spot a month but usually more.

Marvel really need to sort their sh!t out when it comes to use of characters. How do they expect to run a cohesive universe when they can't keep track of whether a character is doing one thing or another or is on earth or off-world. It confuses readers so god knows what it does to editors.

In this case I was being sarcastic, but I'd hardly call myself predominately sarcastic in my posting.

I didn't mean you Jay, I meant Wolverine.

Sorry if it wasn't clear.

The internet needs sarcasm puntuation.

Maybe slashes.

Slashes are too common and would just be confusing . . . how do you divide handy by a period . . .

We should use the tilde . . .

I took 3 years in high school and 2 quarters in college, but couldn't speak any until I started working with some Mexican guys at In-N-Out Burger. Of course, all I learned how to say was nasty things about the girls that came into the restaurant, but still..

I want to give big props to an independent hardcover I picked up called Okko: Cycle of Water by Hub and also the Vertigo hardcover Cairo. Cairo was a pageturner and I read it through in one sitting because I had to see what was going to happen next which doesn't happen to me much anymore in comics.

Elveen · Post by **Elveen** » Sat Jul 05, 2008 2:22 am

I am still in Shadowman v2. But I have gotten to the real good stuff.

#16 was GREAT. Very, very intresting. I just finished #17 and it am looking forward to reading #18 tomorrow. I am kinda bummed because I know that there are only 3 more books left.

But I can see why many people say that SM #16 is where SM v.2 really gets good.

Groo & Rufferto
Groo Mightier than the Sword
Groo Death & Taxes

Hellblazer, continuing the Jamie Delano run...some of it is REALLY good, some of it is terrible. Not a fan of what Delano did with Alan Moore's character, but Ennis is coming up, so...

Elveen · Post by **Elveen** » Wed Jul 30, 2008 4:22 am

Before SDCC I finished the rest of Crossgen's Negation.

I just read the LoEG Black Dossier.(thanks Hobo) WOW. Talk about something to read. Very, very interesting.

Now I am starting Fables TPB #10. Just a few pages in....

Okko was stunning visually but I never got the chance to read it. Will get round to it eventually I am sure.

If you didn't like the Delano stuff, don't even bother with the Azzarello American journey stuff. I like Azzarrello usually but this was dog-*SQUEE*.

I have been reading the All New Atom and really enjoying it.

Have Army@Love to re-read and Dead of Night, Testament, American Virgin lined up

TPB---Y: the last man Book 1

TPB-- The Hobbit (illustrated)

Right now The Atlantis Chronicles and after that I'm taking a break a
small break from reading comics.

reading my recently completed set of Boris the Bear. You'd be surprised how tough it is to complete that set cheaply. The later issues are NOT easy to find.
