I agree.
It's nice he is drawing again though, and him teaming with Alan Davis is always welcome.

Worlds Funnest is out. It's a trade collecting some Bat-Mite and Mr Mxyzptlk appearances as well as Evan Dorkin's World's Funnest and Grant and O'Neill's Legends of the Dark-Mite and Mitefall.
Well worth getting,
Andy

Deathlok and Rocket Raccoon? Not been offered anything beyond them at work yet. No, there were six more in 2015. In April 2015: Daredevil: Marked for Murder The Uncanny X-Men: The Asgardian Wars Avengers West Coast: Vision Quest In September 2015: The Astonishing Ant-Man: Origins Doctor Strange: The Montesi Formula Avengers West Coast: Darker Than Scarlet I think there have been six releases a year from 2004 to 2015, though the ones before 2009 were badly produced.

MIracleman: The Golden Age HC is out, so I picked that up. As with the collected edition from Eclipse back in the day it doesn't have Retrieval in it. Still loads of back matter as with the three Alan Moore collections.

Today Ralph has sent me a text saying he has found a Force Works trade in FPE. The text was full of bad words and doom laden telling me how bad the contents was. I have never read an issue of Force Works. It is a continuation of West Coast Avengers so I have pre ordered it. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1302900560/Should I listen to him and hit the CANCEL button now?

The book is already at 400 pages for a softcover. Increasing the page count further is probably just not feasible!

Still, could be worse. It could be FANTASTIC FORCE. Thankgoodness that has not been traded.

No but I can have it lodged away in the back of my mind that you think it's Pish for the moment when someone at Marvel goes "Hey, What about a Fantastic Force trade?"

The answer is NO VOLUMES.
Force Works is pish! It should stay in the past!!!

Force Works has some of the worst art that has ever graced a Marvel comic.

We will find out how foolish shortly as Wordery dispatched my copy today.
The X-Men: Age of Apocalypse Twilight trade arrived today collecting everything AoA post original publication. It includes the handbook so is therefore on of the greatest trades ever even though most of the rest of the contents is pish (the 6 issue Limited series isn't too bad)
Anyway chums, I have something of a dilemma: Please explain to me why I need the Mutant Genesis 2.0 trade because I am wavering on it!

Can't help you avoid this purchase, I'm afraid. I already had the hardback of 2.0 and the giant hardback containing the original version, and yet I still had to buy the trade when I saw it in FP. I suppose it's handier than the hardcover as a reading copy. For info, the TPB contains the double-sided fold-out posters of the wraparound covers at the back, just like the hardcover.
