This is sort of where I was going with my question. I think the editors screwed up the DC reboot by only doing a "quasi" reboot with Morrison's Batman (and Green Lantern) while trying to rewrite the...

Don't think this thread is violating any rules regarding spoilers (if so I apologize). Given what everyone knows is about to happen in Batman & Robin #18 and the following issues, what really was...

Also agree. And for the point about known quantities, I personally have liked the direction of the Avengers the last few years. I have no problem with new faces being added instead of recycling the...

I like the Legion of Super Heroes approach to the team. If this is the primary super team, it should include as much power as deemed necessary to get things done. Obviously, most story arcs are not...

Yikes, you guys would ask me. I found this years ago. It is actually a motion gif where she is lining up the pool cue. I probably stole it from a sports forum I used to belong to.

I'm assuming they'll go low key with this ghost thing (otherwise it is going to get old fast with Ock being confused about why he cant do things). If anything, he'll do nothing, let Ock screw up on...

General question for those who are so far liking Thor: God of Thunder - Would you have the same feeling and do you think the book would have the same overall feel if Aaron was writing but someone...

I like Egghead and Mad Thinker for this. In general I think that the Big Brain villians, except for Dr. Doom routinely get jobbed to the heroes. I thought the concept of the Intelligencia, even...

I think you have to dig way back to find some good use of Attuma.

Arcade. In fact the more I think about it and read the spoilers to issue 1, the more I believe this story isnt about the kids at all, it's about Arcade and making him less of a clown and more of a...

call me cynical but there is a reason why marvel and dc didn't try to get the rights to the actual hunger games story to do a comic version. the topic of teen agers killing each other off, and it...

Assuming this is in context of comics and not a rumbles fight (or this post would have been there), most X-telepaths would be able to take him out. In the DCU Maxwell Lord was able to control...

Instead of yelling "No more mutants" I sometimes wish Scarlet Witch would have yelled "No more telepaths". Seeing the number of telepaths the avengers had on the screen of that A v X tie in issue...

Agree. Make her an Avenger and be done with that. They teased that almost 2 decades ago in Avengers forever. Just made a comment in the other Thunderbolts post, but I agree with you on Cable. He...

I'm all for Thunderbolt Ross doing all of this on his own. A good writer can create the back story of how a guy no longer associated (don't know for sure) with Avengers or the military has the kind...

Not so down on this but I have some thoughts on how this could work.

First - Sounds like I'm by myself here but I've seen about as much of the old cast as I need to see. I think this is just a...

In the last few years, Marvel seems to be making Nick Fury similar to Batman. By that I mean he's the ultimate thinker, he's seeing everything that's going on and behind the scenes making his...

Used to watch the old cartoons (Spider Man, Cap/Hulk/Iron Man/Thor/Sub Mariner) made in the 60's that they still broadcasted into the mid 70's. Wasn't a big book person. I think the first comic I...

I like RULK on the team. The team already has its brain in Stark. Ross adds combat strategist/tactician role that isn't really shown in other Avengers (I'd argue that Thor or even Barnes/Cap should...

There could be further explanation of his training and servitude to the Masters of Doom, introduced in Millar's run. There could even be a "cabal approach" where we get insight from Doom on key...

Thor and Hercules are reader favorites. To say Thor is Marvel's most enduring hero is not accurate. Spider Man, Hulk and Fantastic Four would be ahead of Thor EASILY. X-Men collectively as well. ...

Very, very well said. To add to that, I also think the times have changed and we are more into the area of science-based versus mythology based characters. A character based on greek mythology...

the biggest of those surprises being that ollie spent the one year later period learning hand to hand and other skills from the master who taught slade.

Those are close and even possibly Kitty Pryde if she was still around. My issue with Layla and even Kitty was just the age thing where they just look sort of young to be directing things like that. ...

It, along with Spidey and Marvel Team Up, worked exceptionally well back in the 70's and 80's, in the era of short storytelling. in the trade paperback, decompressed era of today, these kind of team...
