When I say you should read Spider-Woman, you should start with issue #5 of her last series. 1-4 were just boring Spider-Verse tie-ins that had nothing to do with where the series went, the tone, or the depictions of the characters. Pretty sure the creative team was different as well.

And I just picked up Mockingbird about twenty minutes ago, along with issue #1 of A-Force (cause She-Hulk).

Oddly enough, the fifth issue actually was my introduction to the series. A few months back, they released a $1 reprint of it. Figured I had nothing to lose, and dove in. :laughing:

Good? Been out drinking, so I haven't dove into anything yet.

Yeah. Honestly, I've liked pretty much every comic I've read recently. Except the All-New Inhumans. :laughing:

I don't really understand why they're trying to push the Inhumans so much these days. They're just the poor man's X-Men.

Read Mockingbird #1 yesterday, and I loved it way more than I thought I would. It was funny, bizarre, confusing, and just delightful. I love how as the issue progressed, Mockingbird admitted to drinking more and more with every medical report (from two glasses of Chardonay a week, to three glasses per day, and finally to 2 bottles per day... we're like kindred spirits or some ****.) The artwork is also pretty dang sweet, and made me totally swoon over Mockingbird, even if she did just kinda look like a blonde. I think this might become my new most-awaited series each month, after Spider-Woman of course. I am very curious to see how the series balances dark and tongue-in-cheek.

My thoughts exactly. I read the first issue of their All-New series, and they immediately came off as bargain bin X-Men. Not the worst I've ever read, but still really fucking disappointing.

I'm glad you liked it! :yeah:

And current X-Men is already bargain bin X-Men, so who needs yard sale X-Men?

And I'm about to get into the old Hawkeye and Mockingbird series, along with finally reading the new Amazing Spider-Man, since she's now a main character in it. I'm quite curious if Mockingbird is a character I'd care about outside of one possibly good solo series. I was pleasantly surprised by just how much I liked Spider-Woman in her other appearances (New Avengers and Spider-Woman: Agent of SWORD to be specific).

TFW you discover two new comic download sites that are just amazing. I've lost a few sites over the last year, and was worried that my pool of piracy was dwindling, but it has just been rejuvenated. Even if I buy most of my comics these days, it's always nice to be able to steal anything and everything, just in case legal channels fail me, or I don't want to risk wasting $4 on an issue of a new series that sucks when I can safely test it out before shelling out my moolah.

:laughing:

I've got no clue how cool she is in older comics. Only other thing I've read with her in it was when the Thunderbolts rescued Hellcat from Mephisto's realm. The only reason they saved Hellcat was because they thought she was Mockingbird. :laughing:
