And Deadpool. Almost 70 issues once. 50 with his Cable team-up book.

The worst book that Marvel has published in my lifetime gets cancelled because the only people that actually buy it do so to roast it on YouTube? I’m shocked.

You mean laws that people that routinely ignore laws will not ignore? Good luck with that.

Shut up. The Punisher is fine. Release the fucking show.

Without making it a Marvel/DC thing (mostly cause I read VERY little DC & have never really enjoyed much of their stuff), the little bit of “politics” I’ve seen out of DC skirts the line between outright politics & discussing political philosophy. Maybe I’m not reading their “political” stuff, but what I’ve seen has

I’ll pass on the communism part, thank you very much.

Overly political comics is the reason why 75% of Marvel is selling indie numbers & nothing but Batman sells over 100k anymore. I know it’s why I’m down to 7 marvel titles after being a 25-or-more-title reader for the better part of the past 25 years.

What kind of weather or place is so bad that you can’t be outside for a half hour? Are you at a bar in Antarctica? Is there fire raining down from the sky ? I’m sorry, but if you didn’t bring your coat because you didn’t think you’d need it, that’s not an issue of “you can’t wait outside”, that’s an issue of “you

I never said to close the app. Waiting doesn’t mean closing anything. It means waiting. And it DOES drop once the peak demand drops. I’ve done this a dozen times & waiting for a price that I’m good with always seems to work and takes no longer than 30 minutes.

I don’t disagree that that’s absurd, but I also don’t support capping. Because that’s where you just pop up the Lyft app & check there. Or a cab stand. Competition is good. And if everyone is on surge pricing or whatever their equivalent is? Wait. Because unless they’re colluding (illegal) on price fixing, then

It does. User obviously didn’t care until they got buyers remorse after already getting the service. Or was somehow dumb enough to think that going 10x as far as originally quoted wasn’t going to cost ~10x the price.

Solution: Wait and try again. You can get it fast. Or you can get it cheap. But unless you’re the only one that wants it at that exact moment, you can’t get it fast & cheap. I’ve waited at the bar an extra 1/2 hour from the time I was originally going to get an Uber because I saw that the surge was up to like 3.1x. I

I’m sorry, but if you can’t do the basic math of “this is the base price & it’s going to cost almost 8x as much as this”, then too bad. This is 2nd grade math.

In all my times taking Uber, I always knew the exact dollar amount that I’d be paying at the time I booked my ride. However, I’ve never changed my destination or added a destination, so maybe that’s where the surge charging kicked in. But unless the company just didn’t tell her the surge pricing now applied, I’ve got

I’m literally right at this point in my Uncanny X-Men 100-300 re-read right now. Im on the last issue of a fall of the mutants now. This is absolutely my favorite era of X-Men

I believe this is correct. Tho how Wolverine is still visible when he didn’t go thru the Siege Perilous is the only question remaining.

I was coming here to say just this: “so this is right after the X-Men & Freedom Force/Brotherhood dies in Dallas?”

This is terrible & stupid.

I can make a comparison while noting the differences in tier & taking them into account in the contrast. There’s a lower standard for characters designed to be ensemble team characters than there is for those designed as solo-title carrying characters. By that I mean that if you want to create a new solo character,

Arachnid or maybe the new Tarantula or some other spider name. Shit, he could have been the new Scarlet Spider if they hadn’t brought Ben back.
