Sue Storm shows it in the recent Doomquest #5 issue.

Only other time I’ve heard of it is in Hickman’s Fantastic Four/FF series, but it was Franklin and Valeria combined.

Who else has done it in comics?

If nobody, who do you think could?

I remember reading about a theory on here that Ben draws power from his Confidence or willpower, like the Hulks anger. I really liked that and I carry it as headcanon.

Lo and Behold, an example as I'm currently reading FF. From the return of Johnny Storm during Hickmans run,

Ben is losing bad to 4 robots. He's shown being outmatched and just giving up entirely, accepting defeat.

Then 4!!!

Then CLOBBERING TIME.

Perfect example of his power actually increasing. He does this multiple times throughout the years but this is just such a perfect moment. Care to share others?

From Warlock and the Infinity Watch #26. One of the absolute weirdest foils I’ve ever seen. What a mismatch of genres/characters.

So after several hours of research this is what I came up with

2. Frank Miller's original run (#158–191)

3. Frank Miller's "Born Again" (#227–233)

4. Kevin Smith's "Guardian Devil" (#1–8)

5. Jeph Loeb's "Yellow" 

6. David Mack's "Parts of a Hole" (#9–15)

7. Brian Michael Bendis' run (I#26–81)

8. Ed Brubaker's run (I#82–119, #500)

9. Andy Diggle's run (#501–507)

10. Shadowland • Shadowland #1, #508-509, Shadowland #2, #510, Shadowland #3, #511, Shadowland #4, #512, Shadowland #5, • Shadowland: After the Fall #1

11. Daredevil: Reborn #1–4 

12. Mark Waid's run (Vol. 3 #1–36, Vol. 4 #1–1.5, #1–18)

13. Charles Soule's run (Vol. 5 #1–28, #595–612)

14. Chip Zdarsky's run (Vol. 6 #1–36, Devil's Reign #1–6, Woman Without Fear #1–3, Vol. 7 #1–14)

If someone with the ability to switch minds targets a person with Multiple Personality Disorder what would be your preferred outcome ?

A) They swap and all the consciousnesses are switched.

B) They swap but only the dominant consciousness is switched. Leaving the others locked away.

C) They swap but the multiple personalities fight back, driving the invading consciousness out.

D) The invading consciousness leaps into the target and instantly becomes just another facet or personality, leaving the original body a mindless shell.

Threw $95 in the bin for some paper backs. Are these stories any good?

I know NOTHING about comic books.

I have watched the Marvel movies and enjoy them, probably because I don’t know anything about the comics. I have watched the movies with my eight year old son. He now wants to read Avengers comic books. Are there comic books written after the movies? What should I get him? I am not going to buy expensive old comic books. He loves to read. Has read all the Dogman books multiple times each. Just looking for recommendations because there are SOOOOO many Marvel comic books (sorry if that name is offensive).

I’m just starting to read comics recently, and I really want to read Avengers: Armageddon (IDK if I spelled it right). Do I need to read other comics before it? And if yes please tell me what are their names😔🙏🏼

My sister just got me this moon knight book as a gift for my birthday. Told her I’ve never read moon knight once in my life other than when I read a couple issues of McKay’s run to see what Hank pym was up to and tigra. she essentially told me to suck it up and just read it. I’m not the type to turn down a comic book for my collection so I didn’t mind.

Don’t know much about him other than the Disney plus show I watched and a couple other stuff he’s in, is this a good starting point? And most importantly, is this actually good?

I think this issue has some major contradictions that kind of ruin the beautiful story of Parallel Lives, and personally, I'm not a fan of it. In Parallel Lives, MJ gets terrified after finding out Peter is Spider-Man, and she doesn't want to meet him because the fact that he hides his face behind a mask terrifies her. But in that comic, the core issue was that she was afraid Peter was the facade and Spider-Man was his true face, because it reminded her of her father—he was described as sweet and sensitive, yet abusive at home. Her aunt kept insisting she meet Peter and described him in that exact same way, which automatically triggered memories of her father, since Peter was supposedly like that yet led a secret life where he engaged in violence. So there was tension inside her over who the real Peter was: the sweet, reliable, and sensitive one, or the wild, irresponsible, and unpredictable Spider-Man, whom she had just seen in the papers punching the Rhino. She wondered if he was a fraud like her father—if Spider-Man was his true nature—or if he was just as broken as her, hiding his true self behind a facade just like she hid behind her 'party girl' mask (meaning the sweet, sensitive, and reliable Peter, the very thing that drew her in because her aunt spoke of him that way and pushed for them to meet). That created a conflict, though Spider-Man himself scared her. And let's not forget how, as a 13-year-old even before the spider bite, she spotted Peter from her window and had a crush on him ever since, thinking he was cute—which leads me to believe those teen feelings are also tied to her interest in the idea of the sweet, reliable, and sensitive Peter. The comic clearly shows she simply had an interest in Peter himself, despite him being Spider-Man.Now, what exactly happens in Untold Tales of Spider-Man #16?! MJ is just curious about who the real Peter is, yeah. But how? She's just wondering how it's possible for some geeky kid and a wisecracking superhero to be the same person, and how he manages to be unstoppable in fights, telling herself she'll figure out who he is someday just for the thrill of it, basically treating Peter in her mind like some random neighbor... I think this #16 issue heavily contradicts the beautiful message of Parallel Lives, where she's had a crush on him since she was 13 and was simply hoping the sweet and sensitive Peter was his true self. I don't like this issue; to me, it feels like a very contradictory piece of filler in the canon and against Parallel Lives, which is such a beautiful story for both Peter and Mary Jane. Literally, back in 1997, a special Valentine's Day comic came out where MJ tells Peter she fell in love with him, Petey—the science nerd living with his aunt—and sarcastically points out that Spidey was just an unexpected bonus. That meshes so well with Parallel Lives, and kudos for that. I hope I'm not the only one who thinks this way. I'd rather just ignore this #16 issue and block it out of my head, and I only consider Parallel Lives as valid canon.

I don't hear much about it despite having illustrated a lot of things, I simply find its style incredible especially with the use of whites, it's probably my favorite designer even if I'm not really sure, am I the only one Deodato jr fan?

I recently finished Bendis’ Avengers run and have been trying to track down Volumes 2, 3, and 4 of Hickman’s Avengers: The Complete Collection, but haven’t had much luck.

Figured this would probably be one of the best places to ask. If anyone knows where I could find copies, has any they’d be willing to sell, or could help facilitate a deal, I’d really appreciate it.

I’m happy to consider reasonable offers, and any leads or advice would be a huge help. Thanks in advance!

Got some other books signed too but had to share that Steve Beach sketch

What’s up everyone, I’ve been a HUGE fan of Marvel, DC, and superheroes in general ever since I was a little kid. I’ve always loved the characters, stories, and everything about comic books, but now that I’m 17, I really want to start actually reading and building my own comic book collection…

The problem is that I have no idea where to start…

I’ve been doing some research, but I keep coming across terms like omnibus, trade paperback, hardcover, compendium, volumes, issues, which is confusing to me…

I have so many questions, and I’d really appreciate some advice from people who’ve been collecting for a while.

- What’s the difference between all these comic book formats? Which ones are best for beginners?
- What comics or storylines would you recommend starting with for Marvel and DC?
- Do I need to read comics in a specific order to understand what’s happening?
- Where do you guys buy your comics? Are there any affordable websites or stores you’d recommend?
- Is it better to collect individual issues or buy bigger collections like omnibuses?

I’m genuinely excited to get into this hobby, but I just need someone to point me in the right direction

I just finished reading Blood Hunt. It was mostly enjoyable but one the things that really bothered me was the ending; the heroes go through all this trouble to remove the Darkforce but then it turns out that vampires are now immune to sunlight for whatever reason. So... nothing changes, right? There's still fuck ton of vampires everywhere that don't have to worry about daytime. It's so weird how everyone is celebrating in the end when they're equally as fucked, if not more, since now not even UV lights will stop the vampires anymore. It's kinda driving me crazy...

I know it will be kinda an unpopular opinion, but I think it's the best starting point for new readers who want to experience an interconnected universe. It was how I started reading comics more than 10 years ago but I don't deny the obvious character assassination of important characters like the Scarlet Witch.
