They should all be afraid of springing a woodie in those tights- and with all those scantily clad women around too!
Embarassing!

Captain Ultra used to be afraid of fire. Hulk used to be afraid of his father.

You would assume that most (if not all ) of the "heroes" have a fear of innocents dying via collateral damage in one of their fights.

And yet, he wrote all of Ultimate Spiderman, and it's brilliant.

Wouldn't know, funds dictate I stick to 616.

I just know his ideas for Moon Knight are the stinkiest of poop, his New Avengers is boring and uninspired, his Sentry is even worse than Jenkins', he can't write battles or cosmic powered char, and every char sounds the same.

Maybe because he wrote it from the beginning.

The guy has the worst difficulties to write correctly a lot of characters, he just doesn't seem to get them, to understand them, to know how they talk, how they think..etc...

With ultimate no problems like that cause of course he started the story so it was "his" characters. (of course not, but you know what i mean)

Wolverine has fear of drowning?

Wolverine doesn't actually FEAR drowning, as he's more than willing to jump in the water and fight Tiger Shark (for example) if he has too...but he's uncomfortable around water, because he knows that it's one of the places where he could actually die.

What? I presumed he couldn't even swim. He weighs like half a ton.

OK, i googled some answers :biggrin:, he can swim but its hard for him to stay floating. So he fears drowning?

I also read that he had a previous set of adamantium which was heavy was forcefully removed from him by Magneto. His second set which was given to him by Apocalypse was lighter. I don't know if this is true though.

didn't get me to read it. plus you do realize he's kind of using other people's material. he wouldn't have come up with Spider-man by himself.

Regardless of your Bendis hate, give the first trade a chance. It may have been because it came right after the whole clone/Norman Osborn & Aunt May resurrection/Ben Reilly era but it was really a breath of fresh air at the time. Still think it holds up (some of the dialogue is off, but that's Bendis for you). Good, classic Spidey.

Fears of the Marvel super heroes?

Good question and wonder if that will be a main plot developed in Fear Itself.
That whole angle of Super heroes against their biggest fear.

Spider-Man is afraid to failling to the people he cares about and every single people that is in danger and not using his powers with responsibility.

Thing is afraid of the stone shape he have and how people react to it,all though during the years that have been more or less overcome.

Doctor Strange is afraid of not using his magic powers with responisbility and that the role of sorcerer supreme is in good hands.

Daredevil is afraid that due to the fact of him being blind it would limit his live.

Bruce Banner is afraid to let the Hulk personality control entirely Bruce Banner brain.

Tony Stark to be left behind in the technology issues.

I think that if this gets well developed in Fear Itself,chances are that the main Marvel super heroes will undergone a relevant character development by facing their fears and becoming mre realistic and human characters so to speak.

Thanks but no thanks. Got enough problems funding 616 to waste money on Ult verse.

Rather buy some 70s\80s stuff.

Wolverine has fear of drowning?

He nearly drowned in an earlier series. As he was trapped under water he wondered if his healing factor would just prolong his death, drawing out his suffering. It kinda freaked him out at the time. Guess he never got over it.

those issues were available for free on Marvel's digital site. just not my cup of tea.
