Thread Drift: Sabra VS Crossbones in the Spider-Man: Ends of the Earth one-shot

What do you suspect? That Marvel is pro-Nazi?

SW

Clearly. Marvel shot Sabra and intro'd the Nazi FF in the same month!

Clearly, you need to do another cover featuring Captain America punching Hitler in order to dismiss this opinion...or I just want that awesome cover redone. One of those.

Nah, after all Stan Lee enlisted, and helped our boys fight in WWII by writing the pamphlets about how to not get VD that kept them in top fightin' shape against those Nazi bastards. Jack Kirby was an advanced scout for the 11th infantry who sketched out battlefield maps for commanders.

And if you whipper-snappers at Marvel even thought about writing pro-Nazi comics, Stan would come down there and sock you in the face like Cap did to Hitler. Word.


Still bummed about Sabra, Mr. Wacker. At least make her into a Mossad version of Dethlok if she is dead, and send her after Crossbones?

[Songbird/Diamondback]

At least have something really bad happen to Crossbones after doing this. Hell, Cap should tie him up and throw him in the streets of Israeli for the crowds to beat him!

Seriously, this really bothers me!

I was just kidding. I think Marvel has been about as anti-Nazi as you could get from the very beginning.

But they do write stories about bad people doing bad things, and sometimes succeeding before good ultimately triumphs.

Thing is, I don't thing Cap bashing Crossbones' face in again is going to cut it this time.

I think whatever happens to him has to be much much worst. You pull THIS type of crap and expect another "POW! Back to jail you go!" No, Crossbones deserves a worst fate. He deserves a punishment that would be poetic justice.

I refuse to believe that he can pull off something like this and everyone else forgets about it!

[Chuckles]

Assuming she is, who knows Sabra is dead? Crossbones knows and Doc Ock presumably does. The heroes don't know yet and may not ever, so it's premature to be angry at them sweeping it under the rug.

This is comics, so it will probably come up again.

I first Recall hearing of Sabra shortly after i started reading comics when if memory serves she helped Iceman and Cecila Reyes defeat Bastion (OZT was one my fave ever Arc's js) and i really respected her nobility and fighting prowess . If it is the end of her character for now ... she shall be surely missed .

I think that was my first encounter with the character, too. Unless she was somewhere to be found in "Fatal Attractions."

So the digital version was gorier? Now that's a valid complaint. When readers can decipher two different meanings not from the same art, but from digitally altered art. I hope the print version was cannon.

/seriously from the book I read it just looked like Sabra and Kangaroo were in for a year of physical therapy, not a crematorium.

No but there have been people who have said digital picks up on details better than the printed page in some comics, I don't know if it's the same for this book, but I bought it digitally and it's clear blood spatter is coming from the back of sabra's head from the back, and in the next panel a pool of blood is forming around her head.

Also people have said hey didn't see any blood in kangaroo's scene and in my version there is clearly a blood.

The use of crossbones and lady deathstrike are another indicator these were kills, those are characters that when they win in a fight that means somebody's dead, they had to flee before they could finish it, or their against wolverine

[Chuckles]

I have a physical copy and can clearly see the blood splatter during the Kangaroo "kill" as well.

[chilly bong]

I didn't particularly like this book. While there was a degree of ambiguity towards the fate of the three heroes in the first story, it all just felt a bit mean-spirited....
