With Avengers.NOW already on shelves and a plethora of books coming in the next couple of weeks, it seems like the right time to ask: What are you looking forward to in All-New Marvel NOW? Any books stand out to you? What about currently ongoing series? What would you like to see from it?

I am most definitely looking forward to more Mark Waid fuelled Daredevil, but the thing I'm most excited and anxious to read is James Robinsons Fantastic Four. I've always appreciated him as a writer and I really hope he can come close to what Hickman did on the Fantastic Four book as while I've enjoyed Matt Fractions take it certainly doesn't hold a candle to Hickmans run.

Definitely. I'm also really looking forward to his Invaders series. It's been a while since we've had a proper one of those hasn't it. It's gonna be great.

Oh for sure, I already asked my store to hold a copy for me because I think it will be a gem. I'm not sure if I'll enjoy it but Dan Slott writing Silver Surfer is an intriguing book that I will pick up.

Captain Marvel of course, Charles Soule on Inhuman, Warren Ellis on Moon Knight, Punisher in LA, Slott and Allred on Silver Surfer, and my eventual bankruptcy.

That's got to be worth the price of a first issue at least right? Right now I'm really looking forward to the two being released next week: X-Factor and Black Widow. Peter David's original run of X-Factor was great and seeing him stick around, play with the cast and do something hopefully interesting with it will be great. Black Widow on the other hand I'm picking up because I'll buy any Nathan Edmonson book. Same with Punisher book coming out soon as well. Elektra and Ghost Rider look good too.

I'm definitely looking forward to Captain Marvel...frankly Miss Marvel looks pretty neat as well. Glad to see some Punisher/Surfer love and yeah, I forgot about Inhuman. Soule will do fantastically on that book. But yeah...I feel ya on the bankruptcy part...too much good stuff

There's just too many, my wallet can't handle this! I'm pretty sure mine starts playing violin every time I mention comics nowadays. But hey, if the books are good, I support it. Eventually I'll have to trim down my pull but you can't trim if you never try.

The ones that stand out to me are Ms marvel The punisher. Invaders She hulk.
I'll try the other ones to see what I think ( I'm looking at you silver surfer). I'm excited for the relaunched titles as we'll. never read X factor so I'm anxious to give it a shot.

I might just have to give that one a shot. Avengers Undercover is another one I think people are forgetting. I loved Arena, especially towards the end so I'm interested to see how that turns out. I'm just waiting now and hoping all, or most of the current NOW series I read that haven't been canned yet are getting a proper treatment (Superior Foes)

Superior foes is a sneaky pick for top books of the year to me. It came out of no where and is constantly amazing. I hope more people support it before it goes the way of fearless

It sells pretty well (not great but well) and has a lot of critical and fan support so hopefully it sticks around. Maybe even renaming it Sinister Six or just Superior Foes (without the of Spider-Man bit)...I just want this book to live. It's so much fun and has so much life, charisma and energy.

For me it has to be James Robinson's Invaders - love the team and the creator I am literally excited to read this, I have high hopes for Mr Robinson! The Invaders have been handled with respect in their last few series but it feels like there is still a lot of untapped potential with a team built like that. I thought Pugh was pretty good in taking the reins with the art on animal man, I've been watching his sketch book updates on marvel for Invaders and the art is looking pretty great. The other book I'll be picking up is Avengers World, I wasn't planning on it despite reading Avengers and New Avengers, but the casting of the first three issues has pretty much secured me for the opening arch as their all favorites from Hickman's respective Avengers runs. On a side note I think Ms Marvel looks great along with X-factor and Black Widow, if I had room in my pull list I would be all over those books.
