This is my own opinion, you agree. Awesome, if not. Like I said: MY Opinion. Don't like it? Then that's your opinion.
I just love how Marvel comics are just totally milking the Avengers & X-Men cash cow brands. Avengers, New Avengers, Avengers Assemble, The Ultimates, Secret Avengers, Uncanny Avengers, Avengers Arena (Which SUCKS & has NOTHING to do with the actual Avengers) Cable & X-Force, Uncanny X-Force, X-Men, All New X-Men, Wolverine & The X-Men, Ultimate X-Men.
Like seriously, a bit much Marvel? All conveniently priced at $3.99 or higher. If some are $2.99 & I made a mistake then... My bad.
Your a sucker if you buy all these books. I damn sure hope you read every single one of em & get your money's worth if do buy them. But probably not, I'm sure they just keep piling & piling up, rarely ever getting read. EXACTLY what marvel wants.
How many Justice League books do they have? TWO! DC's finally starting a third one! That feature different unique characters. Where Marvel always has Wolverine, Cap, Iron Man, Spider-Man, Thor etc. in every Avengers book & the same goes for X-Men books. Marvel's just a bunch of cheap pricks who love to rip you off & the stories aren't even that good! Certainly not along the lines of Justice League. I feel sorry for anyone who's buying all of these books. It's even going on with Spider-Man You got Ultimate Spider-Man, Avenging Spider Man, Superior Spider Man. And they cancel good titles like Defenders & Avengers Academy... go figure. And to top it all off... Marvel produces some garbage called "A+X" GTFO, I used to love marvel, now I'm finding fewer & fewer chances to like them.
I especially love how these titles aren't cheap either. DC still does $2.99 on some of their regular books, but Marvel can't go lower than $3.99.
Don't even get me started on Annuals which range from $4-$7. & that don't count your comic shop owner being a cheap pr*ck. Annuals are just crap. PERIOD. As every veteran comic fan knows, there only good for ... wait, what are they good for again? Seriously, I can't think of a reason.
If you think I prefer DC over Marvel, I don't. Surprisingly. However, the scales are in DC's favor ATM. Don't get me wrong DC does have books that aren't too great but not everything can be good but at least they don't force feed you Avengers, X-Men & Spider-Man until throwing up because your body can't handle all the crap.
Another thing, what's with Marvel & Point One(s)??? Or 0.5s? F... Avengers 12.1, Venom 18.1 or Guardians Of The Galaxy 0.5. CHEAP BASTARDS trying to cash in...
It just figures good books like Defenders, Avengers Academy & others get the axe while all this other HORSE crap is being printed in the thousands.
If any Marvel troll wants to "discuss" Superman, Batman & Green Lantern's "multiple" titles. I would honestly love too, Superman has Action Comics & Superman. Batman's a little bit much with Detective Comics, Batman & Robin, Batman: The Dark Knight, Batman Incorporated & Batman. But honestly that's just 5 Batman titles... however it's THE DAMN BATMAN for crap's sake! I will agree that's too much though. I'd honestly cancel Batman Inc. & Batman & Robin to make room for other interesting New 52 titles, not that they don't have a wide enough range as it is, but however it could be a little bit wider with examples like Wally West & Donna Troy & just have Damian in Batman. Which for the most part he usually always is in anyway.
As for Green Lantern & it's 4 titles? Green Lantern focuses Primarily on Hal (Currently dealing with Baz's chapter) eventually Hal will return with Baz moving to JLA. GLC which focuses on John Stewart & Guy Gardner, GL: TNG which focuses on Kyle & other corps. & RED Lanterns which focuses on a different lantern spectrum/corps all together with some small cameos here & there but still doesn't always feat Captain America in 5 of the 6 Avengers comics.
