Marvel Solicits for January 2012

[sherkahn]

ComicBookResources has the solicits for January 2012.

And I can see a few that look interesting, and I know someone's been looking at my fan art for inspiration (again).



I'll leave the many surprises for you to discover. Some of my fer-shur pics, and comparisons....

Hmmm.... I wonder where I have seen a young Franklin Richards with blue streaks of energy cascading out vs. a giant cosmic figure with blue hand.

Oh yeah!



Nice still see similarities....

ah that makes a whole lot more sense.... and honestly, i didn't see that coming....

Marvel Antimonitor

[blue_bolt]

Is that last picture real or fan made?
I want that to be real.

Re: Marvel Antimonitor

[sherkahn]

I made it.

[thefiretonight]

Speaking of ones from the 90's and Marvel Solicits, has there been any hint as to who the new Scarlet Spider is? I know it will probably never happen but I'd like Ben back.

[thanekos]

That X-Force cover's probably the making of at least one Mikel Midnight fic, I'm sure of it.

[misterbug]

I don't see Captain Britain on that cover.

(Yes, I know. DENIAL MODE HAS NO DEACTIVATION SETTING)

[cypherfdp]

People are suspecting MJ, but anything is possible.

[thefiretonight]

MJ, really? That would be an interesting twist. I haven't seen any of the art. Does it look like SS is a woman??

[nightauditguy]

Didn't Joseph get merged with the magnetosphere or something in the 90s? Why are they bringing him back now?

Re: Marvel Antimonitor

[big_daddy_d]

Really? Awesome job!

[cyberghostface]

I think it's going to be Kaine.

[big_daddy_d]

idk but from Solicits it's taking place in my city, HOUSTON, TEXAS!! FINALLY WE GET OUR OWN HERO!

[big_daddy_d]

So Marvel is bringing back Joseph? Please don't tell me there's a cop out planned..

[thefiretonight]

Kaine? I haven't paid much attention to him since Spider-Girl [The May series] and Ben's Lost Days Mini... What's he been doing?

I haven't read any Spidey besides Ultimate since before the Spider Marriage was reconed.

[thefiretonight]

Aw, yay! XD

[cyberghostface]

Hoo boy...

Basically he came back a while ago. During Grim Hunt, when Kraven's family wanted to kill Spider-Man so Kraven could be resurrected, he dressed up as Spider-Man to sacrifice himself in Peter's place.

Then he later came back as the "Tarantula", and was mutated by the Jackal into some sort of giant spider-monster. Then in Spider-Island, in a battle with Spider-Man, he was thrown into some sort of pool made from Anti-Venom's healing 'goo', which brought him back to normal.

[crabby_lioness]

They unmerged X-Man, they can unmerge Joseph.

Re: Marvel Antimonitor

[drmcninja]

That is one damn-fine piece of work! Amazing job, my friend!

[auggie18]

Man, Franklin looks grown up. From what we can see of him. Which makes sense, seeing as he's, what, 43?

[thormonger]

As I'm not a Marvel fan, I have to ask: On the second cover, below Wolverine, is that the "All Your Base" bad guy?

[mrstatham]

Oh for fuck's sake. They're doing another shitty alternate cover run on books that have fuck all to do with the character they're promoting.

[sherkahn]

Nope. AoA Nightcrawler.

[eyz]

That X-Force VS UK cover is quite messy :P
But all in all, love 'em!

[abbadie]

Guest starring CAPTAIN BRITAIN and the CAPTAIN BRITAIN CORPS!

Am I misremembering, or did the entire Corps get assimilated into the current incarnation of Brian on Paul Cornell's very first Capotain Britain and MI13 storyline?
