Don't know yet. I tend to read *about* Marvel and don't read Marvel. That's from the online preview.

But I asked my LCS to pull a copy for me, just because.

Roland Mann is revitalizing/re-visualizing his CAT & MOUSE concept (originally published by Aircel comics) and has a Kickstarter going. They met their initial goal in less than 48 hours, so now the stretch goal (with LOTS of cool extras!) is based on total # of pledges [250+ pledgers result in s...

Citizens is the story of Bedford Tanner, a young man who enters the army on the promise from the government that he would earn his citizenship when the war is over. Unfortunately for Bedford, a new part...

Re: Do you recommend these books?

The Bloodshot yearbook is very different for the character and has some good (if unscripted) art by Michael Bair. I re-read it a few times a year and always enjoy it. Very noir-ish.

As Magnus pointed out, Aric got the armor in 408 AD and was a fierce warrior until the armor resulted in his premature death. Dwayne McDuffie had planned to bring back Aric's consciousness but the title got cancelled before it could happen. I liked the one-shot and the McDuffie issues were actually ...

I didn't like Armorines much (mainly due to its association with X-O), but really dug SW. To me, it was Armorines done right.

I liked the armored team quite a bit. Certainly more than the "Secret Defenders" like initial concept. Although the Bloodshot-focused issues were pretty good.
