Hello, welcome.
I hope you enjoy your time here.
The board can be pretty quiet, but when people do post, it's usually something worth reading.

It has been awfully quiet, hasn't it?
You know what would be kind of cool, SM84? (See how I just abbreviated you, there?)-- maybe find the INTRODUCE YOURSELF thread, and tell us a bit about yourself and your comic-book world, and THEN it might be a nice conversation kicker if you wanted to track down some of the older FAVORITE TEAM, 5 WORST AVENGERS, FIVE BEST AVENGERS, etc, threads and chime in on them. It's really been a long time since we happily hashed through those discussions, and I suspect many folks' choices may have even changed a bit. Hmm-- Marvel Boy, am I right that you're still fairly fresh in the neighborhood? Man, you could take advantage of the opportunity as well, eh?
Because, heh, there's nothing like a HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT to make a person appreciate being on a community board, eh? Eh?? Hmmmm???
(Tote that barge. . .)

It has been awfully quiet, hasn't it? HB Yeah, with all the new Avengers-related titles out now (Feb 13), there still is little interest in NEW (read>current) Avengers material on the AA boards. I have been putting up threads for reviews of a bunch of Avengers-related comics the last couple of years (Avengers:Initiative, Secret Avengers, Heroes for Hire, Dead Avengers, House of M Avengers, Villains for Hire, Guardians of the Galaxy...really anything that hasn't been written by HE-who-I-promised-never-to-speak-of)----but I rarely get any responses. I guess most of the community here doesn't read new material, or have an opinion on new stuff. I would love to talk to ANY Assemblers about the comics I am currently reading--- Avengers (Hickman) New Avengers Uncanny Avengers Avengers Arena Fearless Defenders I realize there has been posts about AVENGERS (Hickman), but the twice-a-month output has me frazzled (I'm a slow reader), so I haven't been able to keep up with those posts. I would like to hear from anyone reading any of these titles, start a thread or send me a message. starfoxxx ---and welcome to the boards spiderman1984 (a great year for Spidey comics, IMO.) |

I did start a thread to discuss the Hickman Avengers, and tend to post in it as each new issue comes out.
It's obviously still early days, and the new regime may not be to everyone's taste, so I'm not sure everyone is into discussing it at length.
But there are plenty of alternatives, (as you say), and I'm reading them all for now, simply for the novelty of not grinding my teeth as I read an Avengers book.
I hope our newest member feels free to join in, or to start new threads, as he pleases.

Oh! Wundagoreborn! You're the other newish fellow I was thinking of- yes. Man, there's a fair host of welcome voices who we'd love to hear expand on their favorite 5, least favorite 5, best team, best era, etc, etc.
Have we posed the "Which team do you consider YOUR team?" question to any of you yet?
HB-- (hmm, although perhaps "HumanBelly" should be altered to "HumanNosey", eh?)

Have we posed the "Which team do you consider YOUR team?" question to any of you yet? This may not be the place for it, but "my" team consists of: Vision, Scarlet Witch, Wonder Man, Yellowjacket, Wasp, Beast, Black Panther, Iron Man, and Captain America. |

Absence makes the heart grow fonder......well, absence due mainly to the sister-in-law moving and taking Ye Old Internet with her. Had to take some time to find my way back to the World-Wide-Web.
Welcome Spidey1984! (Hm, has me wondering, what kind of cool things happened to Spidey back in 1984? Was that pre-Black Costume? Post-Black Costume? I should know, I should remember, heck, I was only 12 years old at that time yet memories fade like the soft wind of spring through the leaves......)

I think 1984 was actually when he got the black costume (as I think that's when Secret Wars came out) but I could well be wrong.
