Avulsion posted:Wasn't Rhodey a cyborg for a while? I could make a joke about Bendis not caring about continuity, but no one really read or remembers the series where he was so much machine that being punched that hard in the gut would just be a mild inconvenience. It was an attempt at making him keep up with Tony's Extremis and other related upgrades, but the comic itself just wasn't very interesting.

This does seem vaguely familiar, but I also only vaguely remember reading that and it was during my pirating days, so I read every piece of garbage available.

Ignite Memories posted:This sounded amazing so i tried googling around for it. This is all I could really find on it. Yeah I did. It's a 12 issue series written by Greg Pakk. I liked it. In the series Rhody is a cyborg after getting mostly blown up. But he's constantly being fed videos of war atrocities so he's driven to kill as many war criminals until he dies. The meta plot is thst Tony grew a clone body to put Rhodey in before he died. But Dark Reign happened and Tony went on the run and Norman Osborn took the body to use as leverage against War Machine. In the end they fight Ultimo and Norman Osborn is pretty great. And Rhody does get into the clone body.

I had to reread that panel three times, and each time more of it's true nature opened up before me like a beautiful flower.

I like this. You know, I understand what Joe Quesada was trying to do when he erased the marriage. The man has a very specific ideal of Spider-Man. Okay, swell. But I'm of the opinion that if you're gonna make a sweeping change for Peter, why not have him start to garner serious major league respect from his peers and have it stick for once? You have panels like this, or the one where Cap invites him formally to be an Avenger, but they're the exception, not the rule.

Spider-man's whole deal is that he's forever an outsider, no matter what he's wearing. People who love Spider-man can't stand Peter Parker and vice versa.

I really liked how he's portrayed as a mentor and helper of young heroes (for example, that part in runaways after the "I'm Batman" panel and he takes them out for sushi and talks to them or the great Spider-Man and the X-men mini of last year), because who's better to give advice to young heroes besides a person who started his hero career at, like 15, and was way in over his head (besides fully prepared mental therapist and care professionals, but this is cape books). Cap is the ideal, but Spidey is the one that could help you get there.

You know who could be great? Doc Samson. Of course, he had actual "great" appearances about 2% of the time. It was awesome when he helped Speedball get over his Penance thing.

Amazing X-Men #18: After a good while of there being no Juggernaut around, the Crimson Gem of Cyttorak has resurfaced and is sending out a call for people to come get it. The X-Men have come to intercept, as preventing there from being a new Juggernaut is obviously in their best interest, but they failed because the Living Monolith got to it first. So while the X-Men try to fight it, Colossus hatches a scheme with former Juggernaut Cain Marko (he's there because he had come to destroy the gem) and goes to Cyttorak's realm or whatever to strike a bargain.   It backfires! Cyttorak takes Colossus' deal but gives Marko the power and the issue ends on a cliffhanger. But I told you that story to post this one. Amazing X-Men #19:

Nope, he's a corpse. Juggernaut there didn't kill him though, he apparently died trying to kill the Inhumans in a vague nonspecific way (suicide bomb? suicide-by-Black Bolt?). Then Mr. Sinister tried to perform experiments on his body because that's what Sinister does and the X-Men stopped him but make no mistake, he dead.
