This could be interesting. I'd love to see Beast involved.

Not sure what to think. I like Beast and Firestar, but it sounds like it's going to be focusing too much on Girl Bucky for me to be really interested. I'll probably flip through it and decide on whether I want to buy it then.
Doesn't help that Onslaught was of course part of one of the worst things Marvel's done. Doesn't really make me want to read it more about the character, having suffered through the first story and the Liefeldverse Avengers.

Waste of a villian, Onslaught should effortlessly pwn both of these team combined seeing as none of them possess any resistance to tp.

I've been reading about Rikki since they did the Nomad: Girl Without a World mini and I think there's a lot more to her than people would initially think. Young Allies was great and it sucks that it got cancelled. At least with this coming up, I'll be able to read a few more stories with Rikki in it. With her being in the back-up stories in Captain America and considering her "relation" to Bucky, I'm surprised the two of them haven't had a real sit-down yet......maybe someday.

Onslaught is so stupid. Marvel literally tried to destroy its line when it came out w/ that gunk. There is no need to revisit this sad part of marvel history.

El Dragon? El Toro? i'm all for diversifying the marvel universe. but to quote a certain bowslinger, "not like this!" doesn't help that most of the new latinos are animal themed; Arana, Reptil, White Tiger, etc.

not trying to put this thing down, but did the last Onslaught mini do that well? Just not sure there is a demand for this thing. Then again, it may outsell half of the books I buy.

In this case, I think it made sense, though. Originally Posted by Monty_Cristo

I can't say I'm a big fan of the character but I don't have any problem with the basic concept of them.

i'm just saying that neither character is Blue Beetle or Spider-man 2099. i just can't imagine el Toro developing a following the same way a Squirrel Girl has. Originally Posted by motteditor

Wonderful! There's nothing like a great villian to make an exciting story. Problem is Onslaught is nothing like a great villian. PASS.
