Marvel throwing shade at DC?



We've already had some hints that Marvel might be planning a complete reboot akin to what DC did with their New 52, and this might just confirm it once and for all. Check out a vague teaser, which still makes an obvious dig at the rival publisher..

The txt accompanying the teaser simply states..

"COUNT ON MARVEL TO ALWAYS DELIVER!

Cuts above the rest..."



And there are 52 slashes. Pretty self explanatory I think. Those red slashes do look similar to Wolverine's claw marks, despite being four and not three - does this mean Marvel will completely reboot their current slate of comics with all Wolverine books?? Probably not, but something drastic is on the horizon. Sound off with your thoughts and guesses in the usual place.

what should I start reading in terms of Marvel?

I started up with AVX in the hope that something insane would happen but nope.

and then I love Ms. Marvel being Captain Marvel but I quit after the second comic lol

There are some fun titles out right now like "Avengers Assemble" which is very cute.
Captain Marvel is very good, it doesn't have a solid villain but it's beautiful.
All the Avengers titles just restarted and they seem to run a solid line together.

I'd recommend Hawkeye. It's more everyday stories, but it's still really good.


Edit:

So I'm late on the Hawkeye rec.

Secret Avengers just started, it's too soon to pass judgement but it's Hawkeye, Black Widow and SHIELD fucking shit up and also fucking each other over. But no actual fucking each other yet :(

Avengers Assemble is cool too.

No-one's mentioned Journey Into Mystery yet, which is a crime IMO. The recent Kid Loki run is absolutely flawless. Starts with Issue 622/the Fear Itself trade.

The current Sif-centric run is also pretty good with beautiful art, and it's only three issues old so it's easy to catch up on. Starts with Issue 646.

I have no idea if anyone else would ever agree with me, but I got into Marvel by reading Iron Man and Captain America. I would highly recommend Captain America volumes five and six.

Hawkeye has minimalistic art, which some people don't like (the guy at my comic book store, mainly), but the writing is fanfuckingtastic.

Winter Soldier is one that I love, even though the second to last issue pissed me off in one aspect (all right, two), and the last issue was too short. But that's one of the titles were I honestly can't wait for the next issue and grab it as soon as I see it. I spent almost two whole minutes flipping the last page of the last issue asking where the rest of it was and when they'd get it in.

I've heard good things about Captain Marvel and the new X-Men. The first run of Secret Avengers was pretty good. It's still too soon to judge on the latest one.

The Avengers books all just restarted in the last few months and they all seem to be connecting up.

Avengers Assemble is the "movie team" and that's a fun book. It's not particularly connected to the others but it's fun.

I also like both Thor and Captain America's books - Cap's is a bit strange, he was taken to an alternate dimension controlled by Zola and is raising Zola's "clone" son as his own(time moves at a different rate there) but it's a new direction and has childhood flashbacks which are pretty interesting. Thor's is a storyline that takes place in the past, present and future with a common villain linking them together, a "God killer" who has seemingly been murdering the gods of many worlds.

If you're willing to do back reading, New Avengers vol. 1 is what I always recommend to people.

As for current series, I'm really liking All New X-Men and Journey Into Mystery.
