There's a lot of new series', both limited and ongoing, coming up from Marvel in the near future, but what ones are you most interested in?

I'm very interested and looking forward to the New, New Mutants series! It will be a great opportunity for me to learn about such classic characters. :)

Yes, it's a manga-style Phoenix mini-series. :jeanphnx:

I'm waiting to get my hands on 411, Marvel Universe: The End, Mystique, New Mutants, Sentinel, The Call, Wolverine (3rd series), Wolverine: X-Isle, and Wolverine/Doop. I might look into Domino, Inhumans, and Namor and see if I like them all.

I'm looking forward to it. As just plain lousy as that Mangaverse X-Men book was, this looks neat (and it helps that Maddie will be in it).

Still, it's second to New Mutants. My excitement over that is tangible.

How can you say that they're rip-offs when the book hasn't been released yet?

CmX

Yeah that was very harsh of you KnockaroundGuy, how about reading the book before bad mouthing it? Whats the big deal? As if every other character isn't some sort of rip-off? I'd like to see you create some fresh characters.

Personally, I'm most looking forward to 411, GUS BEEZER, NEW MUTANTS, RUNAWAYS, and Rucka/Robertson's WOLVERINE.

Mystique and New Mutants are definitely cool. But I voted for Runaways. It looks like a refreshingly different offering from Marvel, and I'm hoping it'll be a good break from the norm.

Mabus, how about The Call? I remember you read the all three The Call series. Hmmmm...

my choices: 411, Gus Beezer, Mystique, New Mutants, Runaways, The Call, and the Wolverine relaunch... I may give Namor a look, too...

New Mutants by far is the title I am looking most forward to seeing. Then Supreme Justice (Squadron Supreme ongoing, which wasn't listed), The Runaways, Inhumans, Mystique and finally Domino. Glad to see so many people looking forward to NM's!

I just chose the ones I plan to buy
Mystique, New Mutants, Marvel Universe: The End and Domino.
I also am kind of interested in Inhumans but I don't think I'm going to get it.

Yup. As others have already mentioned, it's a "manga style" Phoenix miniseries set in the "Marvel Mangaverse".

Here's Marvel's solicitation for the first issue (http://www.marvel.com/comics/onsale/onsale.htm?id=878) and here's a thread I started about it (which includes some samples of Ryan Kinnaird's artwork to give you an idea of what this mini will probably look like). (http://x-mencomics.com/xfan/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=16391)

As for myself, I've been looking forward to the Domino mini since it was first announced a few years ago. But now I'm extremely juiced for this Phoenix - Legacy Of Fire mini, so I had to vote for that.

In both cases, it's strictly the artwork that's drawing me to these projects, which is kinda interesting since I'm generally more the type of fan who follows specific writers.

While their powers may be similar to mutants we've seen in the past, its personality that makes a character. And since we know nothing about the characters other than where they're from and what they can do, saying they're rip-offs is a bit premature (and harsh). Personally, this is the only book I'm wholeheartedly looking forward to, so much so that I'm dropping Ultimate Spider-Man to pick it up (sorry Bendis!!)

I haven't been as excited about a new series (New Mutants) as I have been since......I can't remember when!

Looking forwards to Supreme Justice (new Squadron Supreme mini by JMS) but that wasn't on the list

And to some extent Phoenix, The End and we finally get to see what the Domino series is all about..

Mystique, New Mutants, and Wolverine/Doop for me. But if I have spare change, I might check out Domino and/or Sentinel too.

The two series which are the most interesting for me are New Mutants and X-Men: Phoenix - Legacy of Fire:jeanphnx:

Venom, can't wait for it!

Domino!!!

You had to ask, didn't you ;)

Inhumans in close second.

Alan Lynch

Mar 13, 2003, 08:44 am

Not particularly drawn to any of them other than Gus Breezer, but I like Rucka's Batman, so I might check out Wolverine.

I'm excited about Domino, New Mutants, and Mystique. I can't wait for them to come out! :D

Mar 25, 2003, 05:23 pm

For me its gotta be New Mutants, Venom, and maybe Runaways. I was going to pick up Mystique, but I might not seeing as it has a montly 2.99 price tag.:sigh:

I just can't see paying 3 bucks for a montly series unless its really really good. :dd: If its a hit, I'll probably just wait for the trade.
