Wait, I just realized. Agent X is the mythical Asian superhero at Marvel who can't be tied back to an obvious Asian stereotype. I mean maybe if you want to rag on his Matrix-inspired wardrobe (all the rage in 2002), but that was hardly an Asians-only thing.

He's basically a ninja though. And his origin has him as a yakuza member with HONOR and a katana.

I know that Ultimate Reed is rubbery too, and has deflected lead bullets at least once. What the hell kind of bullets is Taskmaster using there? Ultra-barbed flechettes?

Oh my God, please let the entire story be Iron Jonah wandering around Manhattan, getting increasingly sweaty and uncomfortable, completely unable to find Spider-Man because Peter Parker is too busy getting laid at home

If the Marvel universe ever comes to an end, Iron Jonah should be the last panel.

The only problem with Taskmaster learning Japanese from TV is that Chow Yun Fat speaks Cantonese. Not Japanese. They're not even really similar.

I thought he was saying that the move he pulled there was from a Chow Yun Fat movie, and then his ability to speak Japanese was just a side thing. They were unrelated.

BetterToRuleInHell posted:What if the universe was ending by a Celestial Jonah? Because that last panel looks more Celestial than anything else. Marvel needs to copy the Emperor Joker storyline and make it Emperor Jonah, where instead of killing Batman, Jonah gets to expose and then kill or humiliate Spidey/Peter every single day, over and over, for eternity. Or until someone figures out how to stop him. Also, regarding Taskmaster, the only good thing to come out of Deadpool Max was the female Taskmaster.

You know I'm going to assume that they aren't actually letting you see through the mask for the reader's sake but that Jonah just had his assistant draw the stash and face on the helmet with a marker.

I choose to believe that the mask is being electro-molded to JJJ's face, through Science!

His assistant's so surprised, his glasses popped off.

Two things: First, Jonah's expression doesn't change between those panels. This lends support to the "marker on mask" theory, and is beautiful. Second, those panels are all way better read in J.K. Simmons' voice.

Ha, does this mean Tony Stark designs his suits' masks with an internal opacity filter?

Haha, so Jonah just bursts into Stark's lab, appropriates an Iron Man suit and just starts randomly destroying lab equipment in his glee over taking out Spiderman. I forgot just how delightfully insane/incompetent everyone in newspaper Spiderman is.
