I've read through the Miles Morales stuff--and it is pretty good. Miles isn't entirely different from Peter, albeit a lot younger, but his supporting cast and his situations are pretty interesting.
I read the Infinite issue--it was mostly Nova flying to Earth, but I think it was more of a test/commitment on the unique digital format that Waid and Marvel is using.
As for AVX itself--while everything was set up fairly well for it, the actual initial confrontation still felt a little forced--but hey, Marvel has a long history of their heroes foregoing the option of talking out differences like semi-adults and punching the shit out of each other instead.
I think I'm going to bow out on Daredevil after the Omega Effect--it's funny sometimes, but I'm just tired of the plot.
Wolverine & The X-Men was indeed REAL fucking good.
"I've never read anything by Jason Aaron before." If you want more stuff like W&TXM, read Astonishing Wolverine & Spider-Man. If you want to read something real different and see more of his serious range, read Scalped.
Secret Avengers--surprisingly was able to keep the hype up considering that it just had a great mini-run by Warren Ellis. I get what you mean with the "thing" that happened--and for me, it was a character that I utterly DESPISED, and yet Remender still found a way for me to find the character endearing before doing that.
I hear you on Avengers Academy--the whole Reptil future arc was kinda "eh," but the recent Runaways team-up was cool.
I've only read an issue or two of Byrne's She-Hulk, same with Slott's, and I found them both to be entertaining in their own ways.
GL#6...interesting issue, WEIRD art.
Starstorm...anyone else think was a little nod to Nova? You know, the whole "power inside the helmet" thing.
"So this means that Hal Jordan will die." Wait...isn't Sinestro supposed to be the GL for 2814 now?
Nah, the Guardian definitely has the White Lantern ring in his power. That pose is usually for that.
As for getting tired of the teasers...the way that Johns is doing it might be a little formulaic, but setting up and teasing future stories have been going on since the beginning of serial fiction.
GLC #6...this issue and the whole arc in general I would probably describe as "insane, stupid fun."
John's actions...it makes sense to me, but I can also see a future storyline where John realizes that killing is becoming too easy for him.
As for why they keep doing this with John...I think the reason why is that he's really the only Earth Lantern that it works for. I mean, Kyle was the sensitive artist before the ring...Hal was in the Air Force, but outside of stuff like New Frontier, they never really play with him in combat...I'm pretty sure Guy was in college for a while and then was a teacher...but John was a Marine, even in his first appearance before the cartoon really amped up that side of him. Being a soldier has been part of him since the beginning--and while it's something that, in the military, you're trained to turn off that side of your head that makes you hesitate, unless you're an utter sociopath, the act of taking a life never stops messing with you--which is evident when you see so many soldiers come back home with post-traumatic stress.
I didn't quite connect the two until now, but now that you mention it, I do kinda hope they bring in Aya a little more, maybe even bringing in her robotic form.
Red Lanterns...it was pretty good. The book has definitely picked up speed and has gotten better as it's gotten on.
Yeah, I looked it up, Jack is apparently a nickname for John. I don't understand why. Blame the english language, not Milligan.
YES. Pick up Flash #6. It was fucking AMAZING.
Good episode.
