Ben Reilly is back alive? Everyone but uncle Ben, huh?

@Solitude  
Probably saving it for some flashpoint shenaningans.
 
saves uncle ben, f’s the timeline, goes back and let’s uncle ben die, still f’s the timeline.

@OptimusPrimevil  
Yeah, sounds like something that’d happen to Spidey.

@Solitude  
just a matter of time.
 
either because they ran out stories to tell or ran into a brick wall and need something to jump start the comic.

@OptimusPrimevil  
I honestly think they should save the Uncle Ben lives thing for when they want Peter to Retire permanently, so he can have his happy ending,

@Thanotos Omega  
you have to wonder what would’ve happened if peter did stop that robber. how much of the timeline would’ve changed?
 
only guaranteed change is this won’t happen
 

@SquiggyBomb  
Reaction if they all hate Aqua?

@Thanotos Omega  
Kirran and Grant have already played the game and have gone on record saying they love Aqua.  
And Lani is a man of taste. He’ll adore Aqua.

@SquiggyBomb  
Reaction if  
Lani: She’s only here so single basement dwelling guys can jack off to their waifu

@Thanotos Omega  
What are you even talking about?
 
That’s what Kairi is for.

so the dub team for ghost in the shell arise went to all the trouble of getting Mary Elizabeth McGlynn…and they didn’t give her motoko kusanagi…  
 
^{it’s not}

@angrybrony  
Well I mean the Major is a cyborg.  
It would make sense that she could change her voice however she wanted.

@SquiggyBomb  
then why down grade from Mary Elizabeth McGlynn?

@angrybrony  
Because she’s probably busy!

@SquiggyBomb  
not with VAing.

@SquiggyBomb  
she was also voicing a character in the movie so i’m not see that as busy.

gerry duggan(deadpool, uncanny avengers) is the new writer on All New Guardians of the Galaxy

@OptimusPrimevil  

 
Kinda.
 
Like you have a group of Supermen in Superman Beyond then at the end of Final Crisis there is an army of Supermen/people but they didn’t actually do anything.
 
Then there was Multiversity that was something of a sequel to Final Crisis and all around better IMHO and had a Justice League of representatives from throughout the multiverse.
 
And now in this story…
 

 
YEEEAH they’re bringing ’em back!

one reason there’s not many comic store left in my opinion is that some can’t adapt plus the look of some comic store look feel too 90’s/early 2000’s plus some new readers ether get alienated by ether the owner or another customer within the first year

@Background Pony #6799  
My comic store is a bit more of a game story “Gamezone” is even became part of its name a few years back when it moved buildings.

@Darth Prime  
mine is run by this old couple that it has old school feel there son opened his own few towns over after visiting his they modernlize the place little and are more open too people that are not the usuals they also gave the back of the store to this guy who will be saleing games new & old so they adapted in there own way

@Background Pony #6799  
over here it’s much, much, much cheaper to go find scans or wait for toycon to roll out and you can buy a crap ton of comics for much less.
 
heck it’s probably the reason why the local industry is dead despite all the internet/indie artists saying otherwise. even the cheapo pulp comics (sold in newspaper stands) are mostly rip-offs of what’s popular.
 
heck even the cheapo pulp PORN comics is dead because of the internet.

@Background Pony #6799  
my locle comic shop is pretty nice, it’s got a a big window you can see the hole shop through and it’s next to a sub shop and a pizza place. the shop owner is a pretty cool guy who use to teach English.

@OptimusPrimevil  
I remember (vaguely cause I didn’t read comics back then) Food City was a place you go to for comics.
 
Bought issue 6 of G2 there starts out with Swindle and Megatron it’s like “hey I know those guys” but they’re walking past a skull talking about Bludgeon and I didn’t know who the hell Bludgeon was.
 
Back then anyway now I named my Marowak Bludgeon.
