Once again I am looking for the best out there from the Vine this week. As usual I am looking for all categories including blogs, reviews, wiki work, art, fan fic, rpg, battles, lists and any other thing that anyone can think of.

Yay!! Community time!! This is fast becoming my favourite thing here :D

First up, feebadger has written a blog How I Would Fix Marvel., which raises some really interesting points :) Certainly worth a read.

Hey, I know I shouldn't be doing this, but I did a review on the 'E is for Extinction' TPB. It's kind of an old comic, so I don't think you'd see it. Maybe you could check it out? Here it is:

For blogs

Strider92's blog on 4 characters he'd like to see in the New 52. Very interesting choices and I'm beginning to see a Backlash trend.

StMichaelWilson's Reasons why 2012 TMNT should be more awesome. It's a great explanation of what was good about the 2003 cartoon series mainly.

God_Spawn's 5 crossover fights he wants to see. His picks were awesome and well explained and inspired me to make my own, less good edition that pales compared to God_Spawn's superior blog.

krspaceT posted some interesting thoughts on his blog on what the Trinity War should do to avoid the mistakes Civil War made.

And TheAcidSkull vs Floopay's debate on World War Hulk vs Sephiroth should be nominated for the battles section IMO.

I did 2 more blogs this week

Death in Comics, why doesnt it matter and why it should

Its about how death of major characters has been abused in the last couple of years making them non-effective while the years before it was something with meaning

and

Diversity in the New DCU, or just the Illusion of Diversity

this is about how DC has been trying to focus itself on diversity but in such a way that it feels like an unsuccessful wave of diversified characters one after after the other, just like Marvel tries to do the same with female characters and yet the Milestone characters are still underused

@TheAcidSkull

Pretty much love everything about this respect thread for X-23. Nice compilation of feats with explanations as well.

Will be back with more recommendations later. :)

I really hate nominating my own stuff, but I'm going to throw my (Portrait's) Return of Dorian Gray series on the table... (For RPG)

I really liked @Ironhawk22 's blog "What I want from Year Two of the New 52(Part One?)". It gives a good look at a lot of the problems DC currently has, and why they should be fixed following 2012.

I've also just posted up a discussion about Joss Whedon working on an X-Men film and how everyone would respond to that.
