I'm moving in August. Wonder how many longboxes I'll get up the stairs before my back gives out?

I enjoy his stories, however, he is a guy though that I don't really want on my favorite character as I know it will just be miserable for that character and tear down a lot of what they have built up from past writers. For instance, Steve Rogers is my favorite character. In Remender's run, he has killed off Sharon Carter and taken away his serum. So my favorite character no longer has the love of his life or have the ability to be the character that I enjoy so much.

I think his work on X-Force was superb and Uncanny Avengers has been fantastic since the first arc.

I know what you mean. I was a big fan of Brubaker's Cap run and Remender really came in and cleaned house. Cap has never been a favorite character of mine so it didnt effect me so much. I at least appreciated the fact that he took a risk and went so far left of the status quo. I'm hoping Sharon pops back up soon.

@longbowhunter: No, you're fine. OP made a typo.

I couldn't fathom spending that much money on art.

Ah, gotcha. I couldn't imagine spending that or art either. Hell I can't imagine spending $142 million period.

Rick Remender seems to be one of the more polarizing creators in comics today. Fans have been salty ever since the "M" word controversy last year to which Rick requested angry fans drown themselves in hobo piss. Now he's got readers in a tizzy over Jet Black and Sam Wilson bumpin' uglies and to a lesser extent Sam stepping into the role of Captain America. Personally I'm a fan and have been ever since he had one of the Reavers singing a FEAR song in the pages of Uncanny X-Force. I don't love everything he does, but I always check it out regardless. His track record has been very good in my opinion. I know there are several users on this site who don't care for his work. Feel free to express your distaste here and to further explain your stance. Or if your a fan like me talk about your favorite Remender Marvel series, reinvention of a character, creator owned work or punk rock easter eggs.

@JetiiMitra: That's not what it says up top. Or am I just reading it wrong?

Last year a Francis Bacon piece set an auction record. It also sold for $142 million.

I've been really enjoying this event. It's so over the top and weird. I will miss the real Nick Fury though.

£142 million is over $242 million US dollars.

I came here with the intention of voting for Black Panther. But the thought of an Inhumans movie proved too much. So voted Inhumans.

I was a big fan of the Darwyn Cooke Spirit stuff. Wonder who will be the creative team?

Seems like a good value but always hit or miss depending on how much you like the franchises represented.

Thats my thinking too. $20 is a good deal, I'm just not a very big fan of a lot of popular franchises.
