Comic Book News & Reviews – Be Heard @ Comic Nerd

Fresh on the heels of its total domination of last year’s sales figures. Marvel are starting off this year with another huge attack on the 2009 sales charts Secret Invasion: War of Kings has already ripped through Diamond and are completely out of stock.
You may be lucky enough to locate one if you trawl through your local retailers. But all is not lost as the company announced that there will be a second printing variant available.
Scribes, DnA, aka Andy Lanning and Dan Abnett as well as image creator Paul Pelletier are aiming for a huge super hero event. The Inhumans need to get back to Kree in the aftermath of Secret Invasion.
But there can be not escape for the Skrulls who must face their wrath. Who knows just how Shi’ar Empire and Vulcan will react. There will be a new version of the cover penned by Pelletier as well as other new art.
Fans will need little encouragement to take in the new variant edition of this blockbuster saga that managed to crush the opposition scoring 8 out 10 of 08’s best sellers.
And if that’s not enough to keep you clinging to the edge of your seat, remember that War of Kings: Darkhawk is on its way to our grubby little fingers in February

There you go, Marvel!
When you don’t know what to do…
Or how to deal with your characters…
Or how to streamline you own canon…
…just shoot them into outerspace!
Adam Warlock…
Nova…male and female…
Hulk…
Havok…who also gets dropped into every dimension like he was Dr. Strange…
Ms. Marvel…
Captain Mar-vell…although I’m almost willing to forgive…
The list goes on-and-on and now we can add the Inhumans.
[Luckily, Namor has 7 oceans and more than enough seas to get lost in and enough amnesia relapses to NOT get shot into outerspace!]
I like the Inhumans (as a concept) but I hope they NEVER return to earth…EVER. They seem to be the weakest of all human off-shoots and despite their powers, even weaker than baseline humans at times…
Yep, I think I’m rooting for the bad guys to eliminate the Inhumans. If somehow (the real) Captain Mar-vell could their champion…as he should’ve been YEARS AGO…then maybe I’ll hope they pull out a win.
