Getting to the end of Counter X. Never read these X-Man issues before. It's essentially an X-Man team-up with the Authority and a nun with visions.

Back to the Bendis run. Took a break after Siege. The Heroic Age stories aren't as focussed, as the book is no longer driving the universe, but some of the individual arcs are fantastic and a lot of fun. I'm skipping Fear Itself itself for now as I will get to it on a Thor reread at some point.

Back to my 2000's Avengers reading this afternoon. Time for Slott's Mighty Avengers run, with Hank Pym leading as the Wasp. This team lasted between Secret Invasion and Siege.

Actually selling stuff. At Golden Orbit market in Sacha's, Manchester until 4pm.

Lazy Saturday reading, last year's Blood Hunt. Such a fun crossover and it holds up on a reread. I love Brielle, so it's fantastic to see her standing next to Carol fighting back. Also, the only time I've enjoyed that Dracula redesign. (I much prefer Gene Colan's version).

Wasn't 616 Manchester overrun with vampires last time we saw it?

And activate Summer!

Now on to Claremont's return to the #XMen. Reading my original copies from Spain released March to May 2001. I was 17 and also buying a weekly collection of comic volumes that reprinted the original Claremont run, which was released at the same time as the first film. That's a lot of words to read!

Exiles before #Exiles? This is from #XMen Unlimited 27. The back had unused art including this piece by then X-Man artist Mike S Miller showcasing #ageofapocalypse Blink & Morph having survived and joining Nate. Less than a year later that Blink and a slightly different Morph would form the Exiles.

A spread of Marvel Comics that shipped in July 2025.

I'm looking back on July's marvel comics I picked up and deciding what stays on the pull list, what I'll sell and what I'll keep...

This has a few of my fave indie titles. #MinorArcana is building pace and I'm in now. #AssortedCrisisEvents just stay with you. All four issues have been incredible. And welcome back #Lazarus, you've been missed. I wish the world you were coming back to wasn't so familiar to you.

Yes. 😂😂😍😍😍

Both. 😍😍😍

Despite no longer being distributed in the UK, OK Comics continues to stock @madcavestudios.com and @twomorrows.bsky.social stuff.

Q in Law was a formative one for me!

I'm waiting for unlimited on this one, but looking forward to it.

Happy hunting!! How you find some gems! Or at least some utter random craziness. 😂😂

I have no idea why I said Jessica and Jess. 😂 Let's pretend one of them I meant Veranke.

Here we go the end of my Bendis Avengers reread for now. #Siege. It's been so much fun. Really applaud Bendis character work with Luke, Jessica, Carol, Jess even Clint and Bobbi. Also, surprisingly, I'm thoroughly enjoying his Ares and Victoria Hand. And the art. Murderer's Row of talent.

Hard same. I'm surprised and glad it's lasted this long!

Yeah. Same buddy. Same.

We are at #SecretInvasion. Just reading the main series, both Avengers tie ins and the Thunderbolts ones. There's so much if we include the whole event 😂😂🥹

How's my #BendisAvengers reread going you say? Well I remembered how much I fancy Ares. The God of War. 😂

In all seriousness, past Civil War and it is different books with tweaked teams but the themes continue, and the banter definitely continues.

I'd forgotten about the 💭 experiment in Mighty.

Comics delayed until tomorrow, possibly Friday due to bank holiday in the UK. Will avoid scrolling for the next few days!

Yeah during the reread you feel the sense of direction and purpose since disassembled. And all these events inform each other but aren't necessary to each other. The way the Illuminati causes Planet Hulk for example, but really is part of the Avengers narrative.

Also 2006 also had Planet Hulk and Annihilation. It was quite a significant year for Marvel Comics.

It's been a lot of fun to revisit this run of comics. There's such an energy which was lacking from the Avengers for a while. On the flip side SHIELD (and Tony) gets turned into Homeland Security, which is sometimes hard to read when I prefer to see them as camp 60s spies.

Got to Civil War in my #BendisAvengers reread. It's been years since I've last read any of the crossover. I was thinking of skipping the crossover as it's not Bendis written, but it drives too much or the narrative to skip. I need to do a post on the first 20 issue of New Avengers at some point....

Oooohhhh I'm intrigued by the sourcebook... Looking for some 2nd edition goodness soon.

Decided to showcase some of the floppies...
