Cap_Ironman Weekly News, Week Ending 12 September 2010

[garrideb.livejournal.com]

As many of you know, there's been a lot of dissatisfaction with LiveJournal recently. Because we understand why some people are no longer comfortable using LJ, we've created a sister community over at Dreamwidth. You can find it at c-im.dreamwidth.org.

This does not mean that we are migrating over to DreamWidth. It does mean that those who are no longer on LJ can remain part of our community of Steve/Tony fans. We will be linking to posts on both communities in future newsletters, so those who don't have DreamWidths don't have to worry about missing any great fic or art. You can comment on DW posts with openID, so you don't have to be a member to leave feedback. If you want to join DW, you still need an invite code, but those are fairly easy to get. You can ask me, one of the other mods, or look through the posts here to get an invite code.

In other news, your mods have decided that the comment section in the weekly newsletters are now an open space for off-topic conversation. Want to randomly introduce yourself? Want to share a recipe? Want to link to a fic you wrote that isn't Steve/Tony? Feel free to do it here. Also, if there is anything on-topic that you don't feel like making a separate post for, you can do that here, too.


penumbren is looking for - or possibly was looking for - a beta for a 616/Iron Man Noir fic.

niki_chidon posted two pieces of fanart: Lazy Sunday and Cap's Scrapbook.

dazzledfirestar posted a fanfic titled With You.

muccamukk posted a hurt/comfort guide to first-aide.


Finally, if you're a new or recent member, hello and welcome! Our rules are here, and in the profile; this includes our warnings policy, so please read. If you're interested in the ship, you may want to read the Ship Manifesto, and consult the list of Slashy Moments. If you're planning to write for the comm, there are some tips on writing the pairing here, and the Avengers in general here; if you're having trouble finding a beta, or would like to offer your services as a beta, our beta list is here. If you're looking for the comm archive, it's Tales of Suspense, and it's automated - you can create an account and upload your fic. Our Dreamwidth sister community is here. If you have any questions, you can comment here or PM a mod, that's me, muccamukk, or valtyr.

Call my name and I appear; that is from New Ultimates 2, which is drawn by Cho and written by Loeb. You can see the whole page here. (The dialogue is shopped.)

Ahah! Thank you. I'm a biiiiit behind on anything the Ultimates (read Super-Human, Homeland Security, Gods and Monsters and Grand Theft America thus far).

So now you're telling me there are NEW Ultimates? Ouy. Comic canon, you hurt my brain.

Know of where I could get a good list of the order of which to buy?

This looks about right. Although I found Ultimate Power, Ultimates 3 and Ultimatum to be pretty much a waste of my time. After Ultimatum, Millar started writing Ultimate Avengers - the first arc of that was okay, the second less good - and Loeb started writing New Ultimates, which is pretty much garbage but is drawn by Cho so I just look at the pictures.
