Dawgstar posted:What If the MU lost Atlantis Attacks: You might remember Atlantis Attacks as about Atlanteans summoning Set the primordial snake god. When you actually summon said primordial snake god, things go south very quickly. TPK. Also Set's brood escape into the multiverse but I don't think anything came of it. I love this stupid issue because of how blatant it "cheats." Instead of changing one moment it decides to make sure the heroes lost on every front. "Namor failed, Thor failed and Punisher failed. Awesome. Now let's see 40 pages of every hero dying horribly!" And since it's on topic now, here's a massive article I did recently on the 100 best What If moments.

Dunbar posted:https://twitter.com/GWillowWilson/status/1019595127814172673 I read it this morning, it's fine, mostly set up for the rest of the series. My guess based on the end of the issue is that the series is going to reveal that Carol's always been half-Kree, and that's why she got her powers when the Psyche-Magnatron exploded, or not but something like that seems likely.

Love love loved Immortal Hulk #3 with all the different viewpoints, particularly the lovestruck old dear’s take on it. Digging the groove the series has found of creepy horror tales welded to the 70s Hulk show format. Of course if it stays true to it, poor Ms McGee ain’t ever getting an interview. New Thor was good too, can’t beat a good ol Asgardian screwball farce, and all the explicit mentions of the convoluted family ties was fun to see. Not even read all of this week’s haul yet but it feels like the best week in ages aready.

That might have been the most recent time he'd been mentioned in ages, too. Also it left a young Dawgstar wondering if the Scarlet Witch could do stuff like 'turn Wolverine's bones to anti-matter' then why didn't she do it more? Then M-Day came and I never wished for anything else ever again.

cant cook creole bream posted:Kelly Thompson might be one of the only writers who can make "the boss of space" look cool, so I'm excited to see her in that JJ book. I kinda stand corrected. While the JJ book is cool, the new Captain Marvel book is really incredibly good. I guess that happens if you actually give her complex emotional flaws, wh8ch still seem really relateable. I don't really know much about her backstory. Was her inconvenient childhood explored before? It puts a lot of her characteristics in context. I guess you do often end up like your parents. If this quality keeps up I'll end up liking her again. A-force and ultimates was cool, before everything collapsed. cant cook creole bream fucked around with this message at 18:14 on Jul 19, 2018 |

I'm almost positive that this version of Carol's family is a full-blown retcon. I want to say her dad was alive when she was an Avenger in the '90s grappling with alcoholism, and there's an issue of Claremont's Uncanny X-Men that establishes that Carol's brother Steve died in the Vietnam War.

I got the lettered art for my Edge of Spider-Verse #1 book and it looks v. good, and I remembered that it has the best joke I have ever written in it (a personal opinion that does not reflect the views of Marvel or the general comic-buying public). What I am saying is please buy my book when it comes out next month.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine must be a nice, quaint show for them set in a universe where nothing weird or wild happens.
