HOWARD THE DUCK OMNIBUS Returns For a New Printing in October

Pfft, I have a passing knowledge of the character if that :p

@captainmarvel4ever: wink wink

@billy_batson: Your love and knowledge of the character made this happen.

lol, ok that was perfect :)

Nudge nudge shove shove, stab stab stomp stomp, wiggle eyebrows, wave arms, leap in the air to complete full body twist times two with a dramatic finish comprising of continuous cartwheels around a certain recently released Marvel film poster, lit from the flashlight clenched between my teeth in its general direction.

The real Howard the Duck is no longer in the Marvel universe it is just a clone. The real Howard the Duck is green and live a undercover life.

That's a great series too.

What about Man thing?

It was man! Plus it had the first comic book appearance of Kiss. But I really love Gen Colan's art- the man was a master, he truly "painted with a pencil". One of my favorite artists of all time. Everything he did- Cap, DD, Tomb of Dracula, Dr. Strange, Iron Man, & Howard- was great. Hard to believe he's gone- & Gerber too for that matter. They were two of the all-time comic greats.

Lol awesome!

Yeah I was wondering about that. I've seen some covers that were labeled ordinal sin and sins. Thanks for that clarification. I think I may pick those up when I get a chance

Interesting

Yeah, too bad many will ignore it due to misconceptions of the character.

BB

THIS. >_<

@strangetales: Well, he is not in "Original Sin" but he appears in "Original SinS", that is another mini-series, a collection of very short tie-in with the main story, small secret revealed, and someone had already posted here the two page story about Howard, in this post! Look above :)

It seems that Marvel is giving Howard a big push.

Super happy about this. The Steve Gerber series is a fucking masterpiece. I ain't even joking.

He was the star of the first comic-book movie I actually liked.

Howard the Duck is hilarious, I'm actually really happy about this.

YESSSSSSSSSSS

Quack.

Here we go. Someone who know more about the character. Really he's in original sins? Cool stuff. I've been wanting to read that and that's one more reason for me to

Oh talk about timing...

Yeah, it seems Marvel is trying to push the character more for whatever reason. Honestly I wouldn't mind Howard appearing in future Marvel movies, but only if it were in a "where's Waldo?" kind of theme similar to Stan Lee's cameo, but not as obvious and something fans have to actively look. Marvel could make into a weird easter egg hunt for their more extreme Marvel fans, placing Howard within their movies to be found for fun, yet without it actually interfering with the movies themselves.

@xwraith: Oh yeah~ Like Quack Fu push to the face!

Well, in recent years, Howard is appeared in Marvel Zombies 5, working alongside Machine Man and Swift Cloud for A.R.M.O.R. [and using "Rocket Racoon Style Guns"], so we can ad: Experience in Dimensional Travel, Expert with Heavy Weapon, and S.H.I.E.L.D. training and gadget

Last, in the last number of Original SinS [some week ago], it's show that he is the most intelligent person on his planet and one of the highest mind in the Universe! [Really, neither me or Howard itself think that this is true, but the Eye of the Watcher showed that!]

Yep LOL.

The meme is even funnier now; DC not being able to get Wonder Woman off the ground when Marvel have had a talking Tree, Raccoon and Duck all in the same movie, crazy.

@micah: Uuuuugh, seriously? People do that?

I love Howard the Duck....

Same^^

YES I FREAKING LOVE HOWARD THE DUCK

The comic version of Howard might be ok, I honestly don't know, but I'm not interested in the least. Plus his movie f-cking sucked

He does, you'd be surprised how many people quote "Quack-Fu"

Sure he does. It's just nearly non-existant.

But I was talking about the mainstream audience, since that's were most of the money comes from. In the mainstream eye their both non-existing. If Marvel can get people to turn out for Guardians, it shouldn't be much of a stretch to do the same to Howard. Howard's fanbase is about the same as Guardians before the movies and the push. As in only hardcore fans knew about him like the Guardians. Howard does have a fanbase.

@neiliusprime said:

Probably. I'd love to see him make a few more cameos, but him getting another movie is probably out of the question.

No, it didn't. The characters in Guardians of the Galaxy had a following (a relatively small following, but a following nonetheless. Howard the Duck's fanbase is practically nonexistant.

The funny thing is everyone else said the same thing your saying right now about Guardians of the Galaxy. And Marvel pulled that off to perfection, like I said if they can get audiences to care about a raccoon and a talking tree they call pull off Howard. Guardians of the Galaxy proved anything no matter how unknown can succeed as long as it has great acting, characters, writing, and as long as it's marketed right.

I might buy this depending on what it's going to cost.

I wouldn't mind that, actually.

@squares: I agree that he may not have a wide enough fan base to justify another solo movie though. Personally I'd rather see him get an mature animated series anyway. Like on HBO or whatever.

@wildvine: Okay, one person cares about Howard the Duck.

I like Howard....

@squares: I care.

Beata

Nobody cares about Howard the Duck, I don't see how a movie about him could be pulled off.

Hmmmmmm I wonder why Howard the Duck is being published again?

First Lego Marvel, then GOTG, now this......

@smart_dork_dude:

What do you mean by initially? I don't know much about Howard the Duck just from some dr strange comics and his old movie.

But I thought quack fu was something he learned before coming to our reality. Quack fu is from the duck world not ours

Well that was a different time and age back then. Believe it or not after seeing Guardians of the Galaxy I think Marvel can pull it off.
