So, I just finished reading...

The Iron Man "Execute Program" graphic novel.

OH, TONY.

And now I get why the Civil War gets started. But, Tony, sweetie, your premise is flawed. Guns don't require registration everywhere, and cities like Salt Lake City where they're not are a hell of a lot safer than cities where they are like Los Angeles and New York City. Registration only works for the law-abiding.

The art in this book is fabulous. Tony spends a good deal of it shirtless, always a plus. I need to make some wallpaper...

Did you see my little recap thing on Execute Program? BLONDETONY. wtf.

I don't think his premise is flawed -- but I totally went "OMG CIVIL WAR MAKES MORE SENSE NOW"

Just wait til you read Road to Civil War. O___O

"I look like an idiot." ROFL

I probably missed your recap because I'm slightly spoiler-phobe-y. Link me?

Found them. I had the same reaction: OMG CIVIL WAR. And seriously, I want to hug Tony like the woobie he is. Gawd.

WHY WHY WHY IS HE NOT IN A STRAITJACKET. This cannot be good for his mental state.

Dude did you SEE the new IIM7? He's like "I AM SO STRESSED" and Spider-Man is just "ur okay ur smrt g2g" and Tony is "...k."

THE ANGST!

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. I KNOW. And Peter's worried, you can tell. He should be. We all should be.

Peter wasn't worried enough to SIT AND LISTEN!! It's only after he starts webbing away that he gets a conscience attack(?) and turns around to snap that pic.

If Tony did that, people would be screaming for blood and calling him manipulative for taking advantage of Peter's weak moment.

I've found a place I can pick up what are apparently considered the "essential" seven Civil War graphic novels for around $41, shipped... Seriously considering doing that this week. I feel like I'm missing a lot here.

DO ITTTT

(and what seven did they list?)

(frozen)

[agilebrit.livejournal.com]

The seven I have are Road to Civil War, Civil War, CW: Amazing Spiderman, CW: Fantastic Four, CW: Iron Man, CW: Front Line #1, and CW: Front Line #2. Front Line #1 was listed as non-essential, but since there's a #2 I thought I should get it just for the sake of the lead-up.

I don't think I read the FF one. *scratches head*

I need to go buy cosplay supplies from Halloween store at clearance pricesrun errands, so I can run to the bookstore to double-check.

Spiderman was the only book of them all that didn't make the SHRA totally fascist.

You know...I bet the library has them. Maybe I should get them from there before blowing forty bucks on something that'll probably just piss me off...

(frozen)

[pensive]

You might wanna. Then again I didn't expect to take Tony's side. CW is my favorite thing in Marvel ever next to Extremis. *shrug*

(frozen)

[agilebrit.livejournal.com]

Since I make a weekly trek to the library anyway, I'LL DO THAT.

If you can find 'em, pick 'em up. Besides, it's not like you can argue with that Brian Bolland cover.
