I thought it'd be easier to discuss comics in one thread... so here it is.
The Marvel thread!
Latest Events in the Comic Universe:
Avengers: Standoff! (2016)
Crossover To celebrate Captain America's 75th anniversary, the Avengers will find themselves in what looks like any other remote small town known as Pleasant Hill, only this gated community holds a dark and sinister secret – one that keeps its residents locked away behind its walls. Now, the time has come for its townsfolk to finally escape. As their revolt begins - why then are the Avengers trying to keep them inside?! And what does it have to do with S.H.I.E.L.D.? Even Earth’s Mightiest Heroes won’t be prepared for the truth behind Pleasant Hill. The event kicks off with a one-shot issue Avengers Standoff!: Assault on Pleasant Hill Alpha (in February there will be a prelude called Avengers Standoff!: Welcome to Pleasant Hill) and will continue through Avengers family titles, including Sam Wilson, Captain America, All-New, All-Different Avengers, Uncanny Avengers, New Avengers, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, Illuminati and Howling Commandos of S.H.I.E.L.D. before finishing with Avengers Standoff!: Assault on Pleasant Hill Omega.
Civil War II (2016)
Event Brian Micheal Bendis and David Marquez team up for a sequel to the popular event by Mark Millar and Steve McNiven. A mysterious new Marvel character comes to the attention of the world, one who has the power to calculate the outcome of future events with a high degree of accuracy. This predictive power divides the Marvel heroes on how best to capitalize on this aggregated information, with Captain Marvel leading the charge to profile future crimes and attacks before they occur, and Iron Man adopting the position that the punishment cannot come before the crime. The event will begin in June 2016 and will directly follow Avengers: Standoff!. It begins when a precognitive individual foresees the murder of one famous character by a superhero, sparking the 2nd Civil War.
(^This one is pretty interesting to read... just because I like seeing people struggle. lmao.)
Death of X (2016-2017)
Limited Series Set during the 8 months after the events of Secret Wars, it chronicles the previously untold story of the rising tensions between the Inhumans and Mutants and sets the stage for the blockbuster Inhumans Vs. X-Men event.
Inhumans vs X-Men (2016–2017)
Soon the Terrigen Mists will reach 100 percent saturation world wide and the X-Men are in desperate straights. The M-Pox caused by the mists are ravaging numerous mutants and soon there will be no where left to hide, everyone of them may become infected. There is only one choice left and that is to destroy the mists, only the Inhumans will not allow it to happen. The mists have swelled the ranks of the Inhumans and they see any interference in their form of evolution as a direct threat to their existance. The war between both will begin in December 2016 with a six part series and will spill over into every X-Men and Inhuman ongoing title.
