- Ok, this is startin to get so confusin its me off. Are the AU titles actually different than the regular titles, in such a way that I need to buy both? Let me explain.
Fearless Defenders 4, currently up for preorder, has a 1.94 price point. However there is also a Fearless Defenders AU 4, releasing a couple of weeks later, with a 2.59 price point. Obviously, the 50 cent difference is not enough for it to just be a variant cover.
So Im thinkin that they are actuall different books, such that I need to buy both. THoughts?

- ... i am getting AU, but I may have screwed up on last months preorders and not ordered both the regular book and the AU book... they should have done a better job of labeling them as different... putting a .1 on em or somethin, not just labelin em AU...

- Yeah the AU issues are all Age of Ultron crossover parts. They're doing it that way so none of the issues interrupt the current stories in each title.

- it's weird to have a random issue for these AU ones where everyone is dead and NYC is destroyed yet the regular issues everything is fine. They should have made all the AU issues annuals like they did in the 80's for crossovers that Marvel did. Then they also could have made interest in annuals bigger and they could have made more money for it being a bigger issue. plus then it also wouldn't be confusing to so many
big missed opportunity by Marvel I say

- Yeah it was all written and mostly all drawn i think 3 years ago or more, before they even planned x-men schism or A vs X and even before Superior Spiderman was thought up. So it's written as to where none of that stuff happened. It might not be even slightly affected by those main storylines in the story, but i read that some characters who hate themselves are going to be friends in it because it was before all that.

- This is why I have "almost" completely stopped reading Marvel.
