any thoughts on the vision series??? i gave it a chance because of all the buzz about it.. its pretty good the action is kinda slow but the concept is pretty cool
I find it creepy in a good way
>>83670773
First Post Truth strikes again.
>>83670428
It's one of like five readable marvel books going right now
The only unanimously /co/-approved Marvel book currently ongoing
>>83670773
I would say it's not really creepy but the suspense is well plotted.
>>83670876
Vin, Viv and Virginia are all carachterized in order to be inherently unsettling, and now even Vision is going bonkers
Pure comickino.
It's a DC book published by Marvel
Tom King does it again
>>83671017
Viv is arguably the most stable one.
>>83671026
Leave /tv/
>>83670428
>the action is kinda slow
That's because this is not an action book
You know, there are other writing styles besides action capeshit
>>83671112
Well there's capeshit satire and uhhh......I got nothing else.
>>83670428
Interesting concept and damn good execution. Art and colors are beautiful too. Overall the best Marvel series in a very long time.
The Scarlet Witch issue was GOAT
>>83671153
Expect it to be the last
>>83671112
yeah i know im not expecting crazy shit in every panel
>>83671153
yea the concept is really good very curious on hows its gonna end.
>>83670813
>moon knight
what else?
>>83671042
>Suspense book
>DC
a DC book would be dark and edgy, but not a good suspense/horror like this
There are exceptions like Gotham by Midnight, but they are few
Where did uncle Vic badtouch Vin?
>>83671077
Did Marvel ruin the scarlet witch? What do you consider canon as far as her story goes?
>>83671284
All non-bendis shit is canon.
>>83671254
i kinda wanted to see the classic avengers in it u know with a white captain america male thor but i guess its a good thing they kept up with all the recent changes in the marvel universe
>>83671234
Didn't Agatha already tell you?I'll miss Viv, she a CUTE
>>83670813
>five
you have shit tier standards
>>83671077
So what did he do to her.
Brainwash her or something?
She's in a trance.
tom king is only on for 12 issues right??? are they gonna keep going without him?
>>83671337
wiped some memories after a traumatizing experience.
>>83671042
Pretty much. Which is why DC signed the writer as an exclusive
>>83671075
Probably she's the one who murders the neighbours setting their house on fire
>>83671284
She was at her best during Busiek's Avengers.
>>83671313
yea but i dont expect the expected ever seems kinda cheap if they tell u excatly what happens so early
>>83671344
Which memories? All of the ones with Vis?
>>83671341
it's not really selling well enough to justify that
I really hate hyperbole like this, but if the book keeps up its consistency it could be this decade's Sandman equivalent.
The tension and suspense has been so consistently and tightly plotted in a book that would be light-hearted and goofy capeshit under any other writer at Marvel. It's profoundly poetic and dramatic without being melodramitic, which is so rare in superhero comics these days.
Glad it's ending though. I really hope Marvel isn't stupid enough to follow-up with a lesser writer (like giving it to Lemire or Soule).
>>83671381
oh well if king doesnt stay on guess it doesnt matter i thought it was doing really well
>>83671350
So the deal is on as soon as he finishes Vision?
>>83671411
yea i like how everything is slowly falling apart for vision when all he wants is to be human.. its going to be fun to see what happens when the shit hits the fan
>>83671456
king is only doing 12 issues of vision i dont know if someone else is going to keep writing for it besides it looks like hes gonna get fucked up good soon avenger on his ass
What should I read to get the most out of this run?
>>83671411
>I really hope Marvel isn't stupid enough to follow-up with a lesser writer (like giving it to Lemire or Soule).
You know Brevoort's taking a pitch from Nick Spencer to relaunch Vision #1 with sixteen variant covers.
>>83671370
If you don't expect that then doesn't it become unexpected?
>>83671411
I can see Marvel trying to relaunch it with Marvel Nower and it falling flat desu
>>83671303
>Scarlet witch with Wonderman
Is this canon
>>83671501
issues #1-8
>>83671561
Yes.
And all porn fanfictions with Scarlet Witch in it are too.
>>83671501
Mostly comics that deal with the Vision/Wanda dynamics and maybe some Ultron stories. The letters page on issue 7 has some recommendations.
>>83671493
I support this. Wouldn't want to see it drop quality because of going for too long.
>>83671516
Delete this you stupid fuck, HE IS WATCHING
>>83671586
>no Earth-XXX
DC and Marvel's multiverses are flawed
>>83671609
dumb frogposter
>>83671548
It'll probably be just ok, not terrifically bad, but noticeably worse. Like Moon Knight after Ellis.
>>83670428
i just read the entire series over the last 2 days, and holy shit, i'm incredibly impressed with the writing.
i did not think current marvel was capable of producing a book like this.
>>83671501
Omega men and Sheriff of Babylon.
>>83671501
Scarlet Witch & the Vision
Scarlet Witch & the Vision: something Year
Westcoast Avengers
The original Avengers run
Jesus this comic was depressing.

Not so sure mate. Moon Knight was "easy" to follow. Make him crazy and put him through weird shit or cool action scenes. I can't see how they'll follow on Vision without making it completely differente unless they find another talented creative team.
>>83671148
>and uhhh.
Bendis!

>it could be this decade's Sandman equivalent.
Doubtful. While the quality might be up there, Sandman also sold really well and with the nonstandard demographics like female readers. Vision is more likely to skate on by as a cult classic. Unless Batman makes King really huge and his past runs become more popular. But then again, no one really talks about Snyder's non bat-books.
>>83671907And i love it for that
>>83672019
Finish the vid, friendo.

House of M Is pretty good
>>83672192
I thought american vampire was pretty popular
>>83670428
This has been my favour series in maybe the past 5 years. Hand to God just the most macabre atmosphere in a comic and when the volume comes out I'm buying it. I really hope it doesn't end.
>>83673088
So many memorable moments, and shit is just getting started
A damned good book that's actually worth the hype.
>>83670428
I honestly think it's Marvel's greatest work since Miller's Daredevil. It maintains a sense of horror, mystery, black comedy, drama and emotion.
I don't want the series to end, but I have faith that King will do something fantastic by the end. This might be my favorite work from King thus far.
I feel like the character of The Vision has been grossly unappreciated, but this series manages to paint him in new light, showing his conviction to keeping his family together and I believe with this series and the movies showcasing him, then I think he's finally getting the recognition he deserves.

How come stuff like this never sells? Are people retarded?
>>83673712
>Are people retarded?
Yes.
But don't worry, i'm sure you'll enjoy Civil War 3 in 2018.
>>83670428
A fucking work of art. Better than shakespeare imo
>>83673712
People don't want good comics. They want safe mindless comics to give them their weekly dose of dopamine. Something they can then take to twitbook and post out-of-context pages for internet high fives.
>>83674795
>>83673921
That's depressingly real
>>83671323
Can't tell if it should be >5 or <5.
>>83673654
That's Hickman's FF but Vision is equally great desu senpai
It's definitively one of the greatest comics in the last years; superb in art, drama, emotions, narrative, it's pure and simple fantastic, easily comic of the year and it will be on every "must read" thread along with Silver:Surfer requiem and Thanos Quest.
>>83675658
>Thanos Quest
my black panther. Ron Lim wasn't bad in Infinity Gauntlet but god some of the art in quest looked like prelim crayon sketches
>>83670428
With the risk of sounding facetious it's one of the best comic books I've read. I've downloaded comics for a decade now and since Rucka's Punisher and Azz's Wonder Woman run, this one comic I plan on purchasing once it's completed in volume format.
