Marvel June 2012 Solicits

[sherkahn]

Newsaram has the June 2012 solicitations. Some intersting, some meh, some I just don't get.




some of the stuff that caught my eye.



INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #518 & 519
MATT FRACTION (w) • SALVADOR LARROCA (A&C)
•The New Iron Man explodes into action!
• Spymaster’s rampage within Stark Resilient comes to its bloody end!
• THE ASSASSINATION OF TONY STARK!

Huh, someone new wearing the Iron Man armor.



DEFENDERS #7
MATT FRACTION (w) • TERRY DODSON (a/C)
• Strange and company find their way to Wakanda... and the Black Panther!
• The Black Cat takes the job of a lifetime. The reward? Anything she desires!
• John Aman, the Prince of Orphans, readies to defend his secret with his life!


Stealing from the man who scares the Immortal Weapons? Good luck!

Always makes me happy to see the Dodsons draw Black Cat. :D

[mrstatham]

Ditto this, although it looks really similar to a whole bunch of the Cat stuff Dodson has done before. Not sure if it's from The Evil That Men Do or the Marvel Knights stuff, though..

[bewareofgeek]

Iron Havok!

[auggie18]

I approve of this idea.

[bewareofgeek]

Actually, it makes a weird sort of sense, since Alex is basically a human Arc Reactor.

OK, a mutant Arc Reactor, but you know what I mean. :)

[dr_archeville]

I, Tron Man?

[auggie18]

Hurrah, the Phoenix looks like a bird again! It seems like the last few years it's been morphing into a monster thing.

Maybe that's just Land, though.


Wonder if anyone'll remember that Rachel was the Phoenix for YEARS and nothing bad happened.

[cainofdreaming]

What the heck is wrong with Tony's fingers?

[pyynk]

Broken. His new sponsor is SERIOUSLY hard core.

[mullon]

Dodsons can be pretty hit or miss sometimes. Or are they only good when the work together?

[mrstatham]

They usually only work together, from what I can tell. Every single book Terry Dodson's listed as doing over at Marvel, his wife Rachel's been on too. So I think she inks/colours his work exclusively, usually.

[drmcninja]

As sick as I am of this whole Tron-line deal, I do really like that armor. This explains why they just re-introduced all those IM villains too.

[newnumber6]

I know generally we aren't supposed to talk about X-Factor, but the solicitation there just made me ask the question... "Uh, isn't he dead? Did he come back already? When was this?"

[lascoden]

Siryn changed her codename to Banshee. Notice the solicit says "her name."

[newnumber6]

You know, I could have sworn I double-checked that and confirmed that "yep, it says 'his' name", for exactly that possibility. I guess my brain is all kerfluegle today.

Sorry, false alarm.

Dodson!

[jazzypom]

Amazing work.

Fraction and Larroca? Meh.

[lascoden]

I don't like the new suit. It doesn't look like something you would call Iron Man. I know that it's not supposed to literally be made of iron, but other then the hands and face, this doesn't look like it's made out of metal.

[mrstatham]

Well, fortunately, we can expect it not to last very long.

[donnblake]

Is it just me, or does Red She-Hulk look like she's about to give Black Cat a swat with the flat of the blade there? That or the back of Surfer's head.

[thanekos]

I like how the " Captain America And.. " book seems to be rotating names, though I wish it was Hawkeye for a little longer- then Zemo could effectively two-for-one his next revenge scheme.

" Daredevil imprisoned in Latveria for crimes against the state- " The cover says Doombot, but I'm kind of hoping Kristoff shows up, mostly because I'm curious just whose idea " rout super-terrorist money through Latveria " was.
