I'm reading the Steranko Nick Fury collection. Anyone who is upset about the Fury twist in Original Sin should do the same. Gets pretty wacky scifi.

Even if you're not upset, it's a great read. It might be my ignorance speaking but my 3 seminal Fury runs are the Steranko collection, Fury vs SHIELD and Secret Warriors. And maybe Secret War, though I consider it a New Avengers prototype more than a Fury story.

There is a MAJOR thing revealed in Original Sins this week. I feel like something like that should have been in the regular series, it's weird. Dum Dum has been dead for a long time but Fury keeps replacing him with super LMD's

That's not a revelation it's the writer forgetting that Dum Dum has basically been a brain in an cyborg/lmd body for close to two decades and didn't have the knock off infinity formula since way before then.

So FINALLY the Original Sin tie in for GoTG came out I think other than the and Avengers book I have been frothing at the mouth for some kind of explanation as to the throw down in the Cancerverse. Admittedly it is going kinda well for me not so Bendis-y as far as blotting out a book in word bubbles.

LMDs always bugged me, because they are so often used for retcons, so we will get captions of the LMD's emotional state before it's revealed to be one, and then everyone (after the reveal) just thinks, oh, it's just a loving robot it doesn't have emotions.

And if you recall in the Thanos Imperative anyone killed in the Cancerverse came right back to life (except for Mar-vell because Death killed him).

Guardians was Ed McGuinness drawing the poo poo out of a huge heavyweight cosmic fight. Awkward place to stop the issue though. They should have made it double-sized or found a better way to cut it in half. I do think that it'll be shown Richard survived somehow. He comes off really well in this issue. Also, I really liked the tie-in with Thor and Loki. Loki has a really hilarious moment followed by a touching one.

Also McGuinness's art was really awesome just how he draws a gleeful Thanos beating the poo poo out of people and having his poo poo beat right back. Ugh I really miss DnA Cosmic Marvel.

I really liked the Guardians tie in. McGuiness art fits and it actually feels like the logical progression. The Nova tie in hints at what happens to the Corps. I think they dove en mass into the Cancer verse to rescue Dick Ryder.

I really liked the new Thor & Loki. The combination of Loki casually sending the armada into blowing up against the old Asgard ruins then shrugging at the general/reader with a "well what did you think I was going to do?" and Thor gathering the clouds to deliver his patented KRAKA-THAKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM awesomeness was splendid. I hope the ending doesn't mean we've seeing the last of the All Mother trio being in charge though, I much prefer the idea of Odin chilling with his brother playing chess than coming back to do his stern gruff poo poo yet again.

The Question IRL posted:I really liked the Guardians tie in. McGuiness art fits and it actually feels like the logical progression. I don't think there was actually much of a Corps by that point. IIRC in his solo series he was building up the Nova Corps again but then right before it ended there was the whole Ego/Worldmind thing where it over recruited and that arc ended with Richard severely cutting back.

Does McGuiness draw every single character super jacked still? That was always my issue with him. If you took the heads off his characters you can't tell them apart. It was fun for big action-y books, but I can't take his characters seriously when they wanna brood. He did exactly the thing that always bugs me about most Nightwing artists. I like when he's lithe and looks like an acrobat more than a bodybuilder. Unmature fucked around with this message at 14:10 on Aug 28, 2014 |

Honestly I was surprised by the ending as I thought I was sure Fury was done for and that The Orb was the new Watcher. Would pay good money for Aaron doing a creepy Orb horror book.

Yeah, that final image of The Orb was great. I hope he does more with it. Overall, decent event, not great. What impressed me most was probably Deodato - he was more on point here than he's been for years.

I liked it. I think the series hit its peak around 4-5 and went a but downhill but overall, it was a solid event, which isn't that common. My biggest gripe is that the whodunit fizzled a bit towards the end as the motive wasn't super clear or natural TBH. I'd probably have to reread the series to make a better formed opinion though. Still, I loved the art throughout the series, the ending is neat with the new roles that were defined. For some reason, Fury chained as the new Watcher instantly reminded me visually of Black Hand chained by the Indigo Tribe. Also, they did tie-ins right as some of them were pretty great: Avengers worked flawlessly, Hulk/Iron Man was way better than I expected and Waid knocked it out of the park with DD. The resolution on that one was amazing as it didn't involve punching or brooding.

There was no grand cosmic meaning behind the watcher's murder, which was a pretty big twist. It was indirect, but this was Uatu's way of stopping Fury. He guided the Orb in, which in turn lured Fury. He knew Fury better than anyone after all those years of watching him commit atrocities for 'the greater good', so pushing Fury's buttons to make him bring himself down was easy enough. In the end, despite all of his justifications Fury simply murdered someone because he wanted what they had.

I think my favorite thing about Original Sin is Bucky growing his hair out again for that last shot of him.  Also, has his star been red the whole time? I thought it was painted black these days. I'm paying attention to the important stuff here.

Real Nick's infinity formula only ran out recently, he could have fathered Fury Jr. before then. But shhh, mentioning Fury Jr brings up Battle Scars, and no one wants that.
