Are the Civil War tie-ins worth buying?

I just came from the comic book forums to check out the latest posts and threads and I found a something about the Civil War tie-ins. So are the tie-ins worth buying for? Maybe the main Civil War title contains the main story but what's happening behind and beyond is also important. For me, the tie-ins are essential to understand and answer all your questions regarding your favorite characters involved in Civil War. If for example you are a Spider-man fan, you would want to buy the Spider-man tie-in issue, entitled "War at Home", because you want to know what's happening on Peter Parker's life now that he has revealed his secret identity.

I confess, that I do collect all the Civil War tie-ins. It's worth it because I made a vow to myself that I'm gonna finish this issue. Everytime I miss an issue because the comic shop run out of copies, I feel disappointed. Just like when I missed Spectacular Spider-man #28, but it's not an official tie in. I think it's more than a lead-in. I've read somewhere that it's in this issue where you'll find out how Doc Oc found the Thunderbolts. Well I'm still looking for it.

Thunderbolts is a good tie-in to have because it introduces new characters that might be involved in the war. Frontline is also a good title. This one is on the journalism side. It's about Daily Bugle journalists gathering their thoughts about the registration act. And if you want to know what's happening to Speedball, it can be found inside Frontline too. One good thing about Frontline is that it comes out twice a month.

Amazing Spider-man on the other hand is a good title too. It's in this title where you get to know what's happening to the life of Peter Parker a.k.a. Spider-man now that he's revealed his true identity.

If you want to find out what's happening to Nitro and his whereabouts, you better check out Wolverine. On Wolverine #43, Logan found Nitro. The S.H.I.E.L.D. army together with Wolverine busted into Nitro's hideout and guess what happened? The S.H.I.E.L.D. army burned into ashes. Only Wolverine survived.

New Avengers, is about a new team or more of an army being formed by Captain America. The team is composed of SuperPowers and heroes which is against the SuperPower registration act.

X-Factor, is a bit boring stuff right now but let's find out till Quicksilver comes out on next issue.

Spider-Man almost died: Give Punisher your thanks

I was supposed to blog about Civil War #5 after I read it but I'm always too busy. Not now. It's Sunday and it's weekend. Just looking at the cover of Civil War #5 tells you the whole story of it. But let's get into details. And so Iron Man found out that Spider-Man was going against him. So they had a little fight. Iron Man tried to talk Spider-Man but I guess no one will believe Iron Man anymore. Spider-Man was questioning Iron Man why'd he put all the heroes who refuse to register in the negative zone. Spider-Man's point that putting these heroes who didn't violate any crime but only wears those tights for good intentions is very cruel. Spider-Man was against Iron Man's ideas and that, Iron Man didn't like it. Iron man said Spider-Man was a lunatic. Meanwhile, the Fantastic Four Siblings, The Human Torch and The Invisible Woman was being chased by S.H.I.E.L.D. units. They just realized that the registration act is wrong and they're on their wa...

It wasn't David who killed Goliath. It was Thor.

So it is true that Thor has killed one of Captain America 's allies. Yes Thor just murdered one of his former ally. Read on and light your candles. I just recently bought a while ago the most awaited Civil War #4 . I read through the first five pages and I found myself very sad about the events. Iron Man was beating Captain America down to the ground making his jaw almost fall off. Thor was throwing his Mighty Hammer at every anti-registration act super hero he sees. If you could just see Thor's eyes, it's full of rage ready to take down every one who opposes him. It's just too bad that Goliath died trying to stop Thor. Yeah, it was Goliath who died. Why would Thor kill his former team mate? I have the answer so again, read on. The pro-registration Super Heroes were shocked at what Thor did. Nobody was supposed to die. But Thor didn't know that. It's because that Thor isn't the original Thor . The Thor that killed Goliath was a clone of the original ...

The U.S. president just ordered Deadpool to bring Cable down, Dead or Alive

I just got my copy of Cable and Deadpool yesterday at Comic Quest. I've read through the issue just once because of my busy life -- I'm a Web Designer. I started buying comics when I was still in highschool but I never get to finish a series because I don't have the money to buy me the complete issue every month. Now that I've got a day job and I'm earning as much as you do, yeah the normal employed guy like you, I have been able to complete some new series this year. Let's get back to the Story. And yeah, so Deadpool found the New Avengers hideout and as usual, Deadpool is using his bigmouth again to try to beat down Cap's guys. Deadpool is very funny. So he thought he could take Cap's men down and tried to fight them but to his dismay he failed. The Avengers tied him up especially his big loud mouth. That was the funny part of it. Then cable freed him and they teleported to the White House. Cable tried to talk out the President but to no avail, the Pr...
