Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

If Avengers 2 doesn't end with Ultron being loaded onto an air-gapped Chromebook where he just becomes a snarky AI Tony occasionally trades barbs with, I'm gonna be slightly disappointed.

Honestly, I just love the concept of Super Villains who are just kind of passive aggressive douchebags to the Heroes between heists, instead of just constantly trying to fire their hero hangout into the sun or something.

Like, a Carmen Sandiego who loves inflicting petty grievances on people just as much as stealing landmarks. Tony, the clues are in a print only, wildly out of date world almanac. You are going to have to READ A BOOK, in a public library. instead of googling poo poo.

EDIT: vvv This is my favorite form of Doom, yes. The one with to-scale giant dynamite attached on his to-scale model of his kingdom, telling the Silver Surfer he might be mean, aghast at this crazy man so upset over a mere $200.

He needs some relaxed days where you are shrinking landmarks to add to your personal collection (Doom will not settle for a REPLICA Eiffel tower!), between skinning your ex girlfriend for a new outfit that only lasts a few issues anyways (Doom should have gone for a higher quality ex-girlfriend, it might have lasted longer then!)

This is what I like about Doctor Doom. He has a job outside of being a dick to the FF. Sure, on that job he can do petty things like introduce a mandatory "I hate Reed Richards"-day for all Latveria, but he is not constantly plotting against the FF.


Oh who am I kidding, he totally is.

One of his plots is being genuinely kind and supportive to Valeria, putting him way ahead of the cursed Richards in familial appreciation.

Does the general public know that Doom is Valeria's godfather/caretaker? If so that may limit her choices in boyfriends.

Valeria is going to end up with the Bentley clone who is deeply invested in his evils plans and looking for Doom to fund/support him.

She is also going to eradicate the Kree.

I don't know how the actual comic goes, but for me it's imagining Ghost Rider awkwardly trying to convince the kid that yep, he's Santa, here to save the day. Up to and including while he's laying out righteous vengeance on whoever had beaten the boy.

Hm? Screams? Oh, no, those are... reindeer! Yeah, reindeer calls sound a bit like screaming, like with goats.

I do wish that Ghost Rider was actively trying to fool the kid, but he stays silent through most of the issue. Everything else is as expected though.

There is a good chance she will play Jean Grey instead. I'd see a Jean that's basically Mindy.
