Mockingbird Vol. 1: I Can Explain
Mockingbird Vol. 1: I Can Explain | Chelsea Cain, Kate Niemczyk
103 posts | 70 read | 1 reading | 81 to read
Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. Bobbi Morse, the former Avenger known as Mockingbird, goes solo in her own incredible adventures! With a scientific mind and a lethal mastery of martial arts, she's one of the most versatile, in-demand assets at Maria Hill's disposal - that makes her ideal for investigating strange goings-on in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s own medical and recovery network. And when Lance Hunter's undercover gig at the London Hellfire Club goes south, Mockingbird sets off, battle staves at the ready, to save him - and the Queen of England! From helping out a teen driven bonkers by her own new powers, to doing a little dog-sitting, Bobbi shows that she's a woman of many talents as bestselling author Chelsea Cain and artist Kate Niemczyk make Mockingbird sing! COLLECTING: MOCKINGBIRD: S.H.I.E.L.D. 50TH ANNIVERSARY 1, MOCKINGBIRD 1-5

Bobbi is my favorite S.H.I.E.L.D. agent. Always has been and always will be. #Marvel #BobbiMorse #Mockingbird

Now that I've FINALLY finished my speech bubble challenge posts for this one, I can review it! I really had a lot of fun with mockingbird and I can't wait to read volume 2. Did I hear that maybe that was in though? Did they cancel it?
#letsgetgraphicweeklongmarathon

Bookzombie I haven‘t read any yet, I saw (on Book Riot?) that it was cancelled though. 🙁 7y
xicanti Yeah, it got cancelled far too soon. :( The writer was harassed, too, and I think she ended up leaving social media. 7y
Natasha.C.Barnes @xicanti All bc of that feminist agenda shirt? Dear god. 7y

I love a little historical #throwback with The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp! The funny thing is how it looks like they're going to use it as an instructive reference...you'd expect a little more from scientist-terrorists, wouldn't you? 😂

Me reading last night next to poor Portia who just got spayed. I wanted to sleep right next to her, but it was my parents' room and already pretty crowded. 😆 This poor baby is feeling a little better today but she sure doesn't like these drugs. #letsgetgraphicweeklongmarathon

Natasha.C.Barnes @TricksyTails @MallenNC @Clwojick @callielafleur @Mollyanna @SandyW Thank you all for your well wishes! She is doing a little better today but still pretty confused. We weren't able to get her to drink water but she did drink chicken broth so I think all is well. 7y
TricksyTails When my pup wouldn't drink, I gave him some coconut water mixed with the water. It has electrolytes in it. Maybe that could help along with the broth? 7y
Clwojick Also, if you add broth or water to their food and heat it up... it smells stronger and they're more likely to give it a taste. ❤️ 7y
Natasha.C.Barnes @TricksyTails @Clwojick Great advice, thank you! She has started eating some, so I'm not too worried about her, but I totally think mixing food and warm water is the way to go for her next few meals. Just have to be careful not to give her too much bc the meds make her nauseous. I hadn't heard the coconut water thing, that's an interesting idea, thanks! 7y

This was so much fun! I only dabble in superhero comics, but this was hands down the best one I've read so far. It beat out Matt Fraction's Hawkeye run as my favorite (funny because Hawkeye and Mockingbird were married, and he makes an appearance), which I thought was impossible. Funny, perfectly paced, and very, very clever. Bummed that this was canceled, so there is only one more volume for me to read 😢.

vivastory Have you read her Archie Sheridan/Gretchen Lowell series? I've been curious about them 7y
readordierachel @vivastory I haven't. I hadn't heard of her until the drama surrounding this series. I'm curious about them too. This was so good that I might have to check them out. 7y
vivastory I was unaware of this graphic novel series until your review. I'll definitely be checking it out. Are you excited for Ta-Nehisi Coates Storm series? 7y

readordierachel @vivastory OMG, I hadn't heard about that! That sounds awesome. 7y
vivastory I don't read many superhero comics, but the X-Men are hands down my favorite superhero team & Storm has always been a favorite character. I'm excited to see where Coates takes it. 7y
readordierachel @vivastory Cool! If I've read any X-Men, I can't remember it. I do, however, remember the cartoon (and the movies or course, for good or ill) 🙃. 7y
vivastory The movies have really been uneven, from atrocious (The Last Stand) to brilliant (First Class & Logan) 7y

Loved the feminism and loved the way Bobbi was written. The underlying plot is a bit confusing but it won‘t change the fact that I enjoyed reading this volume and will be picking up the next.

Mehso-so

Alas, I went into this with high expectations due to glowing reviews & didn't end up swooning. Knowing nothing about the character, I found the puzzle box story confusing until it circled. But the last two issues were fun & made me reread issue 1. I do follow some marvel comics but I'm not steeped in Marvelverse lore so I'm sure many hidden asides flew past me. I will be reading vol 2 since it's already purchased. #mommyreads #comics #ebook

Bobbi is a badass!! She kicks butt and looks amazing doing it. She's also a biochemist who spouts off science facts whenever she sees appropriate. My favorite character trait, however, has to be her sarcasm. A mutated superhero girl after my own heart💜 #24in48

There's an amazing sale on digital Marvel volumes happening on Amazon. I kind of hope it ends soon, because I've already spent WAY too much (this picture is only evidence of about half of what I bought - some #msmarvel and #deadpool didn't make it inside the parameters) and might not be able to stop myself from going back for more. #bargainbooks #Marvel #mockingbird #squirrelgirl #jessicajones #scarletwitch #blackpanther

I read it, I cried over it, I loved it. So upset that it was canceled and even more upset that comic fuckboys harassed the writer off the internet over one of the issues in the next trade 😒😒😒 (I'm late to the fury over all this but I was too pissed when it happened to say anything. I'm almost not really over it.) If u haven't gotten around to it, pick up this trade and support the writer and the series itself. Fuck Marvel and its fuckboy fans.

TobeyTheScavengerMonk They did such a great job translating her to TV on Agents of SHIELD. She was always the smartest person in the room AND unstoppable in a fight. 8y
