    This will get some folks' ire up - those that have been saying Fury's been "shelved", others pointing to "He's going to be in the Defenders" and we all assumed it would be today's Nick. Seems like this is some wonky time travel thing, so truly, today's Nick is still MIA. I'll take Nick whenever/wherever I can, but I was really hoping for today's Nick.

    Heh ... good point. We've yet to get Today's Nick, in either of his 'more appearances now,' except Winter Soldier, but it looks like he was replaced by Sitwell in this arc of WS. That said, however, going by Fraction's interview, we _should_ eventually get Today's Nick, but he'll be in a different role, than what appears in these pages now.

    Yeah I'm looking forward to seeing Today's Nick again. And yeah, Sitwell is in those images, crazy. I will have to seek out this interview with Matt, am very curious.

    I think I posted most of it earlier, but here's the whole interview with Fraction on Nick Fury and Silver Surfer.

    THIS issue is a time travel story. We should be back in the present, with Today's Nick shortly.

    That's great, thanks for the repost.

    It was good to go back and reread all of the interviews regarding this current run on the Defenders.

    I initially blew it off (despite Doc) because of the Fear Itself follow up. I am quite glad I stuck around though as this is my favorite book at Marvel along with Winter Soldier.

    Preview for Defenders #9 is out!







    And the FuryMax preview!
    I keep thinking this stuff would be great drawn by Kevin Maguire.

    And I'm guessing that means we will NOT see the old warrior, present day Nick Fury in Defenders, either in the last 3 issues.

    This, plus my LCBS was shorted Fury Max 5, has not made me a happy camper.

    No. Like I said, I'll take him any way I can get him. I just know a lot of people are wondering where "today's" Nick is, and if the current version of the character has been shelved, etc... I'm really hoping he'll show up somewhere and stay somewhat relevant, even though there's this push for his son to fill the role now.

    Great cover, Iron Fist! I'd love to see Deodato do a Nick Fury book. With his use of shadows, he'd be super.

    616 Fury hasn't shown up since Junior was revealed. Tom B isn't even bothering with the Jr. appellation anymore. It's pretty much like many of us figured -- replaced and limbo.

    Well, on the bright-side, limbo is better than some convoluted death that would have to be retconned someday. Limbo is not so bad - the right writer, the right situation, and he could come back.
