Here in Australia the prices are killing me with marvel costs sky rocketing and its becoming harder and harder to keep up a big collection. I do however have to say that sometimes and I stress the ‘sometimes’ that it can be worth it and being a newbie to Marvel and DC comics it can be a stretch on the pocket. Thank you Elliot and Jose for your videos and blogs, its awesome to see people that are so passionate about something and it has created a greater love for comics in terms of Marvel and DC. SO THANK YOU CCW!!! 🙂
At this point, I think Jeff Parker should jump to Image or Dark Horse and try to do some creator-owned work that will have a chance of lasting more than a dozen issues. Clearly his talents are underutilized at the house of ideas.
Can’t say I agree on the Dan Slott part. Yes the killing of the original Hobgoblin was just dreadful. But past that on it has been a great series going forward except vol. 3 of FF. I felt it was a bit pedestrian it wasn’t very clear in the plot everything was just all over the place. Right now i find the Spider Island shaping up to be interesting event regardless of complaints on art. To me the Joe Q junior of Marvel is Bendis.

Very insightful rant Jose. Certainly helps explain some things.
