Avengers: The Initiative

Well…yeah…but his UDON weaponry was way cooler.

As much as i like taskmaster I actually dig Echo a little more just cause she’s deaf but her powers of mimicry offset it some so she’s not totally fucked over.

Whaaaaaa?!?!

Taskmaster is way better! He’s a way more amusing character.

That plus echo gets beat up a lot. You have to trick taskmaster once he’s seen your style to beat him.

Well the last person Echo actually beat the snot out of was Daredevil since then when she joined the Avengers she’s been fighting nothing but superpowered people and the occassional ninjas.

I think if Taskmaster trained her a little she would be an even greater threat and asset to the New Avengers.

That’s because if Taskmaster trains anyone, they become way stronger. It’s like a powerup in Mega Man.

But anyway, I just read Moon Knight 3-6, where he fights Taskmaster…and wtf is this? Does Moon Knight have some brain mojo where he can turn you into a pussy? Or should Marvel keep Huston faaaarrrr faarrrr away from Taskmaster at all times?

I don’t think Marvel knows what to do with Moon Knight. I mean he seems like a Batman gone psycho if thats possible. Thats one character that i would like to see on the New Avengers…hell on any team for that matter.

Indeed, the New Avengers need to lose Wolverine and Spidey, and would be well served with Bucky-Cap and Moon Knight.

yeah its good to hear that we’ll see how the other Avengers feel about Bucky-Cap after this arc.

Since they’ve got Strange out, I’d definitely like to see the New Avengers become a totally street-level team. Strange didn’t really work well with a team made up of guys who stopped bank robberies and mafia turf wars, when he was conjuring up a potion to bring the mighty MORZODE back from the realm of MORZOM to some place that also has some serious alliteration going on.

So yeah, I think a Cage, Bucky-Cap, Echo/Ronin, Hawkeye/Ronin, Moonknight and Iron Fist team would be way awesomer.

Cool. Caselli’s still doing the artwork so I think I’ll take a look at recent issues.

I don’t think that’ll happen. He’s the only person that’s an unregistered non-mutant superhero without penalty so he joining a team full of unregistered heroes would make them legit and I don’t see that happening.Same reason why Thor won’t join either.

Then again the New Avengers have gotten away so many times I wonder if the SHRA is actually in effect. At least 3 times someone from the government has let them get away(Symbiote invasion,World War Hulk, The Hood attack).

Well Thor has his own set of BS to deal with but hopefully he’ll figure into the Avengers fold soon especially once Secret Invasion hits.

That whole SHRA didn’t really shake things up like i thought it would. I mean you have the New Warriors running around making the Initiative look like retards. New Avengers are cracking down on the Hood. You got random heroes fighting the Thunderbolts and kicking the shit out off and damn near killing Bullseye(thank god he gets his ass kicked finally). Some of the Young Avengers fighting off doing there thing.

I can’t wait to see what Nick Fury’s been doing and i really want him to come back to Shield.
