CapnAndy posted:New Avengers has, and it's really good. He's just constantly bumblefucking around, making bad decisions, getting made fun of because he's old and/or Kate is better, and then being awesome and shooting arrows into motherfuckers way out of his weight class like it ain't no thang. The Daily Show bit from the Pleasant Hill tie-in is probably my favourite moment of the book thus far.

This is the 2015 New Avengers, right? There are like four books called that, and two since Fraction's Hawkguy.

CharlestheHammer posted:But UU Frank isn't all that different? I meant that the idea that marvel replaced Frank with the ultimate version without saying anything about it and that this was somehow magically gleaned from a whopping two issues that have not mentioned anything about this is dumb. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

The same thing is happening to Howard the Duck with #11. Currently it is rumored that a new Hawkeye series will launch in the fall and it will be a solo Kate Bishop series.

Let's wait to see a creative team before we get excited. It could end up being a nightmare scenario like Ales Kot and Greg Land.

I would like to see Kate get her own book or at least gave bigger supporting roles elsewhere, she's a cool character.

Reminder that Disney bought both Marvel and Star Wars to, among other things, build up their range of "boy" brands. Apparently right before both brands discovered that women have money and like cool poo poo.

Phylodox posted:Is Keith David available? I remember years ago listening to an interview with a random TNG cast member, I think Lavar Burton, who mentioned that surprisingly the richest person on the cast was Michael Dorn, because he got in on the ground floor of Fuddruckers when it was first starting up, and for whatever reason that cracked me the hell up. Dude spends all his spare time now collecting and flying airplanes, because why not.

Michael Dorn is always a pleasant voice acting surprise. He's pretty much only got one voice, but it's a good one.

Clint dying reduces the chance of someone trying to make him and Kate a couple at some point in the future so I am all for it.

I think when a character has a run as monumentally beloved as Fraction's Hawkeye, you have to let that character lay fallow for a while before they can have another solo book that won't instantly be dismissed as "Not as good as the last one". Let Clint run around in New Avengers for a few years and let Kate have a solo title.
