On the last page people were trying to think of how this Cap story could turn out to be some kind of trickery or fakeout, etc. and it keeps reminding me of the end of The Gathering of Five when Green Goblin kills Spider-Man and I had to wait thirty days to find out that at some point in the previous issue the omniscient viewpoint of the comic had become Osborn's cursed super-insanity POV so It Was All Just A Dream. And then we got robbed out of seeing Spider-Man have a good throw-down with him (a recurring thing since Osborn came back).

Dude at C2E2 got to talk to Ramon Perez and ask him about Nova Nova had 20 issues planned, the editor had to fight hard to even get them the last two issues because marvel wanted to end it mid-arc. Rich's armor looking different had backstory planned. And probably most understandably, Perez sounded really disappointed about it all and loved working on the book. Just depressing stuff. EDIT: Further Despair for those that enjoyed it quote:Tomorrow is STAR-LORD #6, the last issue of the GROUNDED arc and, sadly, the final issue for the series. I’m immensely proud of what Kris, Matt and I were able to do in those issues: exploring an estranged Peter, finding his footing without the Guardians, on a planet he’s now out of step with. http://zdarsky.tumblr.com/post/159720103556/it-was-a-short-ride-but-drat-it-was-fun-tomorrow

Lurdiak posted:"If only they'd let Matt Fraction write the next big event" Fear Itself is looking better and better in hindsight. Since FI we've had: Spider-Island (June 2011) Ultimate Fallout (July 2011) Avengers vs. X-Men (April 2012) Age of Ultron (March 2013) Infinity (August 2013) Inhumanity (December 2013) Original Sin (May 2014) AXIS (October 2014) Spider-Verse (November 2014) The Black Vortex (February 2015) Secret Wars (May 2015) Avengers: Standoff! (March 2016) Civil War II (June 2016) Inhumans vs. X-Men (November 2016) I bolded the three that I thought were the best crossovers since then, but FI still ranks about everything else on the list.

I probably missed it, but does this event explain when Steve might have had possession of a cosmic cube, an infinity gem, or other tools where he could have taken over the world right there instead of waiting until now?

He was wearing the Infinity Gauntlet for a minute during the run-up to Secret Wars, and that would've probably done it. All it would've required was an errant thought before he went about repelling the incursion. Of course, that and everything like it can easily be handwaved as something Kobik didn't know about.

Was the Blackout character in SE#0 supposed to be Bob Reynolds/Sentry/Void? Zemo referred to him as Bob and they talked about the void descending on the city.

Blackout is a preexisting character who was a member of the Masters of Evil. He has the power to tap into the Darkforce Dimension. Blackout is also dead as hell and has been since the late '80s, so I'm not sure why he's there at all, but hey, comic books.

Wanderer posted:
Presumably it's one of several callbacks between the main title and Thunderbolts to the particular lineup Zemo put together for the Assault on Avengers Mansion story in the 80s. And that was... I want to say also the line-up that formed the backbone of Busiek's original Thunderbolts, minus Goliath and the Beetle. Baron Zemo, Absorbing Man, the aforementioned Blackout, Moonstrone, Screaming Mimi, Goliath, Fixer, Grey Gargoyle, Mister Hyde, the Wrecking Crew, Yellowjacket (the Rita one) and a few others I'm blanking on. Oh, Titania and Whirlwind. I don't think Nitro was involved but who knows, it's been awhile.

Rhyno posted:Zemo rescued Blackout some years ago. Isn't he Atlas/Goliath's brother? That was the Smuggler, Conrad Josten. EDIT: I see where the confusion comes from: quote:Years later, his body was taken by Baron Zemo, manipulated like a puppet on strings to serve as a member of his team as he confronted the new Thunderbolts over the life of their member Photon. During the battle between the two teams, Zemo revealed Blackout was merely a shell in which he kept the Smuggler trapped. This had the desired effect of turning his brother, Atlas against his team, and Zemo gained the upper hand. Also the original Blackout's name was Marcus Daniels, according to Wikipedia, so I have no idea who Bob there is supposed to be.

Cap was always Hydra, but Cap always being Hydra was only recently cosmic cubed into reality.

Maxwell Lord was just using his powers to control what the reader read, thus fooling them into believing he was a good guy.

Come to think of it I think there was a bit in the The Oath that implies that there's some fracture point where the "old" Steve Rogers is supplanted by the "new" Steve Rogers and is a seperate guy:quote:See, that’s the other truth. Like I told you before, I’m not the man you think I am. But everthing he ever did, every memory, every moment-- I carry it inside me. This is followed by about a page of Hydra Cap analyzing and giving commentary on Non-Hydra Cap and Tony's relationship in a way that heavily suggests that the actual published adventures of Captain America up to this point are still, in some way, in continuity. Which is a not entirely satisfying continuity bandaid and maybe supports E&C's idea that Nick Spencer might be kind of hazy on the precise mechanics of the story he's telling, because I don't really recall seeing it explained quite that way anywhere else.

Everything else that happened over the years still happened the same way and wasn't Hydra during that time.

EDIT: I see where the confusion comes from: In Avenger's Pleasant Hill all the bad guys were brainwashed into folksy, simple-minded, small town people. The Fixer thought he was a car mechanic until Zemo restored his identity. Since then Zemo has gathered his Ex-Pleasant Hill buddies (Graviton and Nitro) for this attack on New York. When Zemo said "Bob or should I say Blackout" it was a callback to their time together in Pleasant Hill i.e. Bob the Landscape Artist.
