I am pretty sure I read that it would not be revealed until like the third issue. I also am not aware of any delays.

Pretty sure I read it won't be revealed till like the middle of next year.

Didn't that exact situation happen with the first Ronin in New Avengers? I recall that somewhere spoiled that it was going to be Daredevil so Bendis decided to change the reveal to Echo.

I thought it was because Brubaker wanted Matt Murdoch in prison for his solo series, so Bendis had to replace him for that reason.

Kiss the Joycon to Kiss Zelda

Brubaker didn't want that, Bendis wanted to end his run with Matt in prison and asked Brubaker if he was cool with that. He said he was, and just ran with it.

They should have just had Ronin be Iron Fist, so that he was posing as both Ronin and Daredevil. :allears:

That was Frank's big comeback to the Marvel Universe after being somewhat confined to the MAX line for some years, too. It was a pretty great way to reintroduce him.

I know, right? If Daredevil lasts multiple seasons on Netflix there better be an arc using that whole thing.

Wow, that looks awesome. I wonder if chunks of the Incursion Earths are what makes up the new Battleworld and if we're even going to see any one shots now.

I'm not loyal to anything, General... except the dream.
I was kind of hoping it wouldn't be linked so directly to Avengers/New Avengers.

EDIT: I should probably clarify; if this is something that spins out of the incursion situation or something that follows on from Reed or whoever's 'solution' to that problem, then fine, but if this is the end of the Avengers/New Avengers storyline, then that sucks.

So what might happen is that whoever wins or survives forms a new universe. It would be a way to keep characters like Miles around with his cast while ending the ultimate universe or something.

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.

So basically picking and choosing the best characters like they're putting together a giant Exiles team?

I could see them doing something like Zero Hour, cherry picking what they want and dumping the rest.

It's pretty much what I think will happen. And have they ever attempted to merge Earths when incursions happen? Because that looks like it's actually the solution here which forms Battleworld.

I know Darkdevil and American Dream (or did she actually take the name Captain America in that last MC2 mini?) are there. And a bunch of other people, I guess.

Well they did merge 616 with that rogue planet a few months back so it's feasible.

I would not want to gently caress with a Spider-Man who had to protect his family. Dan Slott stupidity aside, when Peter is all about "I have to do this for Aunt May/Mary Jane!" then he's loving unstoppable.

Spider-Verse is going to be done before Secret Wars starts though? It is a little funny that there's a crossover with every single version of Spider-Man right now, and early next year we're at least briefly getting another alternate spider-Man.

Yes, but Spider-Verse just killed off a version of Peter who's married to MJ with two kids. (Granted, in that world, his daughter's the main Spider-person)
