Marvel Comics Thread

Well…bye bye thunderbolts. Gonna give Parker the benefit of the doubt when it comes to Dark Avengers.

Bendis Avengers exit interview #2.

Marvel remembers Michael Clarke Duncan. Not only was he Kingpin in the Daredevil movie and MTV Spider-Man he is also playing Groot in the next season of Ultimate Spider-Man.

oh man, havent followed comics in a while, only to read on this page that Daniel freaking Way is taking over Thunderbolts!! say it aint so!

i wiki-ed the AvX arc as well. sounds like a nice shake-up, i guess the arc took a turn for the positive…? I remember despising the first 3 issues big time.

came in the mail today

Jerome Opena’s pencils for Avengers Now #1 look amazing!

I only wish he could have played Groot or even Drax in the Guardians of the Galaxy movie. Damn a much younger Michael Clarke Duncan would have made an awesome Drax.

Well, consider me sold just off Opeńa’s pencils alone!

Dean White’s colors on that book is going to make it more awesome.

Looks like Cannonball and possibly Sunspot are joining the Avengers! I’m just happy that it’s two X characters that are taken away from Bendis and given to Hickman lol!

Great Q&A with Dan Slott on Spider-Man’s 50th Anniversary, Alpha, the Goblin War, #700 and all things ASM. Spoilers if you haven’t read the last few issues of Amazing Spider-Man yet.

Is it weird that I loved the cartoon, loved the old ps1 games but never got into the comic lol? Only Spidey series I enjoyed was the two “Noir” books

AvX Spoilers

Spoiler

So Charles dies again during an event, shocking. And yo I hate how bad the writing and motivations for any character not named Cyclops has been in this shit, he’s the only character who’s acted somewhat rationally this whole time even with the Phoenix. While eveeryone else has basically been going nuts with the PF he’s been the only one just doing what he says the group is about, helping people and trying to keep things as peaceful as possible. And ugh I hate how THE AVENGERS AND CAPTAIN AMERICA AND ESPECIALLY WOLVERINE ARE AWESOME! this whole event has been

I probably won’t be able to read any comics until tomorrow because it’s just one of those weeks. However, since the newspapers have already spoiled this for me which means my co-workers have told me because it’s not like I can get news like this by oh I don’t know reading comics…

Anyway I’m all for it. Finally AvX does something RIGHT.

AvX

[details=Spoiler]I never liked Professor X. Guy was always a prime time jerk and one of the biggest villains the X-Men ever faced. Let’s run down his ‘greatest hits.’

When he was in the womb he tried to kill his twin Cassandra Nova, WHEN HE WAS IN THE WOMB! Hell even Doctor Doom didn’t start being evil THAT EARLY. And of course this lead to Cassandra Nova becoming an X-Men villain. Thanks baldy!

Then there was the Onslaught mess, which started when 30 year old Professor X wanted to bang 16 year old Jean Grey. Oh that’s not even a retcon, that came straight out Lee and Kirby’s run. Plus the fact that he turned Magneto into a vegetable, for all intents and purposes killing him. HYPOCRISY MUCH? These two things created Onslaught.

So if you pick up MvC Origins, crank MvC1 to level 8 and Onslaught kicks your ass you can thank that lolicon murderer!

It turns out he messed with Wolverine’s mind too. OOPS HE DID IT AGAIN!

And let’s not forget when he seemingly killed the third Summers brother and instead of admitting he messed up he WIPED CYCLOPS’ MIND CLEAN!

So RIP Professor X. Good riddens!

…Only downside is you know he’ll come back to life once X-Men First Class 2 comes out. He’ll just be younger with black hair. 16 year old Jean Grey better WATCH OUT! [/details]

was it Jeph Loeb’s fault that Wolverine was top tier in vanilla?

Kevin Shinick is doing a signing for Avenging Spider-Man 12 right now at my lcs.

AvX stuff

Spoiler

Even so between Cassandra Nova and Cyclops Professor X is still a murdering brainwasher. And let’s not forget pervert. Homeboy has to die before teenage Jean Grey comes back otherwise it’s just going to be a creepy scene. :rofl:

I think it was Aaron who had Wolverine heal back up from being a skeleton. Loeb never portrayed Wolverine’s healing factor to be that powerful that I can recall. I didn’t read his recent Wolverine issues and you shouldn’t either.

Loeb did have Sabretooth being able to put his chopped off hand back and heal it back up like Absorbing Man can though. Sigh…

I like how you keep telling to not read the book even though I still do lol. I don’t buy the book. Rumor is that Frank Cho is suppose to take over for Wolverine.

Speaking of stuff you shouldn’t read but I did anyway, I just read AvX #11. Great outcome. Stupid story.
