Each mini can be pretty much read without referring back to the core series, and few monthlies are actually crossing over into it.<br /><br />Obviously, the aftermath will have an impact on whatever series you're reading, but I think far less than the abominable New52 did.Siskoidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08266365376486695812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-38274509264229033512015-07-13T11:09:19.166-03:002015-07-13T11:09:19.166-03:00A roach being a bookie?

Gotta' ...A roach being a bookie? Sounds legit;)<br />Gotta' echo those comments about how funny and old-school that future Namor/Hercules bit is. If David keeps that up, I could see this being the spirtual counterpart to DC's JL 3001 series.<br /><br />Cool map btw. Lots of references if you're an old fan who knows his history.<br /><br />Likewsie, it'd be nice if Marvel settled down with all this war stuff/events for awhile, but I doubt that'll happen since its still profitable to keep this shit going for as long as it has.Mr. Morbid's House Of Funhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06721085161381688977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-8007251371851893492015-07-10T12:03:15.501-03:002015-07-10T12:03:15.501-03:00I haven't read the new 2099, and don't pla...I haven't read the new 2099, and don't plan to (I mean, as far as I'm concerned, 2099 is relevant as an X-Men or Spider-Man platform), but I love how Hercules is involved. If I wanted to read it at all, it would be because of that.Tony Laplumehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07854455859399339169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-79348844970867273652015-07-10T10:29:44.782-03:002015-07-10T10:29:44.782-03:00I think the nice bit about this Secret Wars is tha...I think the nice bit about this Secret Wars is that yes, there's a big rearranging event going on in the main book, but to date, it's pretty much been possible to ready ANY of the other books in isolation. They all tell their own stories, often without even a mention of any other domain on the map.Siskoidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08266365376486695812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-91103049045731807562015-07-10T10:16:30.487-03:002015-07-10T10:16:30.487-03:00I have to admit, the Watcher and Hercules and Namo...I have to admit, the Watcher and Hercules and Namor bits were quite amusing. I still don't want to read this Secret War book however.SallyPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05592635194271250605noreply@blogger.com
