So are there no new Captain Marvel comics being released? Do I have to read Avengers (is it just Avengers? Is 'The Enemy Within' the subtitle? Why is the Marvel website completely unhelpful?) to find out what happens with Carol and her brain tumor?

FUCKING COMICS.

Dear comics,

This is why I never recommend anyone ever start reading you, because you're the fucking worst, I mean seriously, do you hate your readers? DO YOU?*

No love,
Red


*I mean, obviously the answer is yes, especially if said reader has a vagina.

The only reason I know exactly which issues to look for is because there's a page at the back of Avengers - Enemy Within #1 that says the next ones coming are Avengers Assemble 16, Captain Marvel 13, Avengers Assemble 17 and Captain Marvel 14. I get that they're trying to boost sales on Captain Marvel by possibly bringing in people who are reading AA, but there's no excuse for completely renumbering the book that starts the crossover so people have no idea what it is anymore. This Enemy Within book is just Avengers Assemble 15 but seriously I was like "what is this?" because of the pointless rename and then I realized. They should have left it in a subtitle under Avengers Assemble or something imo.

Thank god someone's paying attention, otherwise I would be totally lost.

They totally should! Don't fucking throw around #1 unless you actually mean it and a new reader could come in cold and know what's going on!
