Wellman

I picked up Ultimate Spider #4 yesterday. It is mostly Peter/MJ talking with Harry/Gwen and it is such a good issue. I also grabbed the third printing of Ultimate Spider-Man #2. May's note on the fridge giving Peter encouragement to keep going is so dang sweet. 
 
The new Ultimate universe has my interest with Ultimate Spider-Man, so I picked up Ultimate X-Men #1-2. Might check out Ultimate Black Panther and the Ultimate Invasion TPB.
 
Greg Weisman is writing Spectacular Spider-Men, got the first two issues, had no spoilers on these, so I'm going in blind.
 
Spider-Punk, Miles Morals, Ultimate Spider-Man. Every Spidey book is infinitely more fascinating than the mainline Amazing Spider-Man. I don't know the sales numbers but it wouldn't surprise me if Amazing Spider-Man is lagging behind all the other Spidey titles.

Ultimate Spider-Man issue 4 is the best issue Hickman has wrote since F4  588. 

I'm thinking he's going to make him a Prime Sentinel 
 

Hunter x Hunter: Nen Impact has gameplay out.
 
 
 

Oh boy...
 

If you're not gonna link me to SF Marisa art, don't bother tagging me bro 😤

It is a Souls like action game. Gorgeous character model but if you looking for Nier this ain't really it.

Who are these omegadorks who are getting outplayed by an anon with an anime profile picture. You have to have a crippling porn addiction and severe isolation to be saying the stuff that this guy is responding to with basic reasoning. I'm talking about the kind of addiction where you push the 2 kilos of coke off your desk to make room for tissues and lube after the newest Mia Malkova drop.

Hey if you like it then that's cool to. 

I think all of that was hilariously accidental. They were thinking getting multiple artist to contribute would help speed up the process trying to hit the Switch launch year, which they did getting it out by December that year, without realizing they didn't give enough instructions leading to what they got. 
 
Personally I love it, while some indeed look like ass and you have a major character that is basically just the artist redrawing one of their favorite Final Fantasy characters, it is an interesting visual. Plus anything is better than what we got with the Xenoblade Chronicles X models.

Well fuck all these people. We need to stop giving these losers attention and voices. 

You are right, their properties might be worthwhile but taking all the developers may not be that attractive. 
 
I could see Nintendo buying them only because they have worked with them before on multiple projects and I think co own the Fatal Frame IP. The only publisher from Japan I could see as being interested in their IP and development teams equally would be a smaller but growing publisher like Arc Systems. Owning the Ninja Gaiden franchise would fit their current portfolio of classic IP, plus it would give them access to teams that have more experience in other genres not just action or fighting games.

It will be a shame but I don't know if Koei Tecmo will last into the next generation. Outside of contract work and Dynasty Warriors/Warriors spinoffs I can't think of a recent successful game. 
 
Atlus was the same way and wound up getting gobbled up by Sega. I wonder if there is any company that values KT properties or development enough to take them on?

Metaphor: ReFantazio is SO going to be the back bones of the next Persona game. That being said, I still want them to do another Devil Survivors game. 

Confirmed that Samus was set to be in Fortnite, then NIntendo said no
You already know why they said no...you don't even need to click to find out why.
 
 
 

If this was 2021-22, they would have probably been gobbled up by someone. However with the current state of the industry, everyone sans Nintendo seems to be laying off developers, I'm not sure. Most companies seem to be trying to hold together what they already have.

Which sucks, cuz they have some really good games.
Wild Hearts for example was a neat game.

Perhaps, my only issue is that the armors were kind of meh in the looks area.

Deadpool and Wolverine Trailer 2...
 
 
 
 

Separating Storm and T’Challa is the best thing they’ve done for both characters. 

Let’s goooo
 
 

Damn this arc is crazy, I thought he wanted Wano to be comparable to Marine Ford this is topping even that and we haven't reached the end yet.
