I haven't read it yet, although I have it, but I read the first BRAND NEW DAY collection that followed it and liked it. I hate ret-conning and thought Straczynski came up with a pretty clever way of doing it without being obnoxious.James Reasonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049917964433932612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-50898498595636931122010-10-29T13:19:57.276-05:002010-10-29T13:19:57.276-05:00Mine too...

Sounds like it should be a good jumping-on place. The Moench/Gulacy run on MOKF was one of my absolute favorite comics of the 70s.James Reasonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049917964433932612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-6509021675962436682010-10-28T00:29:07.117-05:002010-10-28T00:29:07.117-05:00Speaking of Brubaker, have you been following Secr...Speaking of Brubaker, have you been following Secret Avengers? Issue 6 is the first of a 5-parter, with Shang Chi and the resurrection of his rascally father... games of death and deceit are afoot.

They almost lost me again with the horrendous ONE MORE DAY crap, and in fact did make me stop following Spider-man, but I've stuck with Cap and the Avengers titles.Troy Smithhttp://www.troyduanesmith.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-69785781108872484212010-10-24T10:58:43.371-05:002010-10-24T10:58:43.371-05:00With everything that's going on in the Marvel ...With everything that's going on in the Marvel Universe today, it's almost like somebody in charge had a revelation and said, "Hey, maybe we should do something to get back all those long-time readers we pissed off and ran off fifteen years ago!"James Reasonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049917964433932612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-10907064384243320482010-10-24T10:56:40.164-05:002010-10-24T10:56:40.164-05:00I just read TWO AMERICAS, the collection that imme...I just read TWO AMERICAS, the collection that immediately follows REBORN, and was less fond of it, but it's still okay.
