Last Rants concludes as Elliott and Jose discuss the questionable practices of Marvel Comics and pricing policies. Is it back to the 'bad old days' of filler material? And what message does Elliott have for Joe Quesada? (Hint: he doesn't plan on ever working for him.)

So what are your guys' opinons on Marvel's tribute to women thing in March? I think there just trying not to look like a boys club, but that's me.

We'll probably talk about that in the next week or two.

I agree with kurumais. Fall of the Hulks and Necrosha are Not company wide events they're just events that touch certain corners of the Marvel U. If your counting those than DC has just as many. They have Blackest Night, World of New Krypton, and they had the crossover in the Superman books. By the way I love events, and I like Marvel and DC equally.

Very well argued sentiments guys. That's what CCW is all about.

Marvel was just bought by Disney!!! They should be able to have books at $2 and make a profit.

I watched that Invincible review from a couple of weeks ago and u guys said how good it was. U guys were right!!! I picked up a trade of it from my library and it's been great. I had already heard of Invincible and would always see it at the Comic book store I just never got around to reading it, but always wanted to.

haha good stuff man i havent been watching for a while good im watching now i agree with the jumping on shit like marvels charging 3.99 for a first issue of a book thats 32 pages WTF and 5 dollars for dark reign tie in specials!?! i am also i little disapointed in the fans for not standing up. also, they still do cup o joe i used to read it on myspace but they stopped posting it months ago

Comics should cost 75 cents considering page count and content. Publishers blaming printers only works if you never pick up another magazine with 150 to 200 pages that costs $5.95.

I DID call BS back when these mini's were coming out on our videos. I was pretty pissed that you HAD TO read Superman 3-D in order to understand the last issue of Final Crisis.

I also called BS on DC for fucking up continuity with Countdown and Death of the New Gods. Trust me, earlier in the year we were calling out DC for some serious BS on a regular basis.
