Everything about that panel.

I love that it detaches at the shoulder and not the more obvious seam on his bicep.

Is that a seam, or just where his huge gloves end? Are those gloves, or his flesh?

I was going to say "why is his head pointy", but everybody is an alien in this situation anyway.

Tippy used Iron Man's glove to knock Mjölnir through the the rift to the moon and into Doreen's hand. There's a lot of context missing in the panels posted.

To be fair this exchange could describe several points in Beast's history, and probably has.

But it's just an Erika Henderson version of this Beast, who still looks fairly stupid.

It's a pretty recent change, within the last two years I think. Someone got the crazy idea that a superpowered world-saving superspy might favour a slightly more practical costume than sexy body paint.

These two things aren't mutually exclusive, but honestly the Spider-Woman redesign is great.

Also I enjoyed the time she got trapped in a cosmic maternity ward by a bunch of Skrull soldiers who came to kidnap a V.I.P. and figured a hospital full of pregnant women was easy pickings.



Honestly I liked that whole series... a LOT more than I expected to.

Very quickly, I guess. Catch them off guard before they realize what's happening. Its not like the Hulk where it happens by reflex in response to danger.

Yeah, well, Skurge's last stand notwithstanding, the comics mean jack in the trailer because Mjolnir is shattered by Hel.
I wouldn't be surprised if that turns out to be dream-foreshadowing of him becoming unworthy and unable to use it for a while. But it not really being destroyed.

That reminds me, though, of a genuine badass heroic moment from that same story:

No offense to this comic but considering the poo poo the skrull empire's been through it's weird that people still use them as default space villains. They should really be more like space hobos.
