Perennial favorite Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. #1

Shirtless, akimbo laser pistols, cigar and wall crashing rocket cycle. Bro is totes alpha.



I've seen this spread a ton, but never what leads up to it:
Nick Fury, chillin' in the desert smoking a cigar while a SHIELD missile descends upon him so he can test a new force shield (you'd think they'd use dummies for this). The shield is sabotaged, so Nick runs to a rocket powered sled as it speeds away, jumps on, and is dragged to safety.

However that would explain why there isn't a proper website and why it's kind of messy. I'll have to keep an eye out for it, then.

I've definitely got my eye on it and will probably spam this thread once it comes out.

So far all I've seen is loads of T&A, a hero blasting someone's arm off to show they mean SERIOUS BUSINESS and the hideously overused glowing heat vision rage-eyes on a Super-person trope. The high point of a nadir ain't that impressive.

So, basing a run on 1.5 pages...

It's the one time she has gotten angry and blasted someone in 12 issues (the only other use of her heat vision was to entertain her cat). Most of the time, she's trying to get people to stop fighting and this whole final arc is set off because she wants to get the Ultra Humanite psychiatric help instead of just beating him up and eventually finds a cure for the illness that made him put his brain in a monkey's body.

But, it's Power Girl, so she tends to go for punching first and even Conner can't help drawing T&A.

Then, you get 22 double page spreads in issues #2-3 of this (timg for size, violence, and naked zombies):


Then, seven more pages of double page spreads of this:


Issue #4 tones it down to approximately 20 single pages of this:

I know these are supposed to be super special space deathsharks but I hate it when superheros are fighting animals. Adam Warlock here, one of the only credible threats to Thanos but here I am being seriously tasked by a fish.

In this case, Warlock is trying to get to Earth while a powerful psychic mind is trying to slow him down. It's not a space shark, it's a psychic projection of one by someone who is powerful enough to destroy the galaxy. It's not technically alive. No space sharks were harmed in the making of those pages.

I didn't include it, but the psychic tells Dredd that the Predator was hurt and dying, on Earth for one last hunt and an honorable death. It also knew that the gun would explode. And before it died, it took out a few of Dredd's men and two heavy armor mech units. So, yeah, evenly matched!

I just read the Fantastic Four Original Sin issue. In it, Reed encounters a locked door and Alicia asks him if he can just "use your science" on it to open it. That's such a vague question and a really weird way of phrasing it.

One thing I'm not digging about this series is all the emphasis on how poor she is. In this issue, her computer is busted and she can't fix it because she can't get ahold of a spare hard drive. Really? You don't know anyone that might be able to help you out?

Maybe it's explained elsewhere, but I jumped on last issue cold and have no idea why Bruce isn't helping out.

Yes. I haven't read a Batman comic in years (pre New-52), stopped reading Batwoman with JH WIlliams, and followed the first two issues of this new run (starting with #35) just fine.

Like I said, I followed 35 just fine jumping I am cold. The last thing I've read with Barbara in it was Black Mask, Killing Joke before that, so I don't really know anything about her. The only thing I've read with Black Canary was Longbow Hunters years ago. I wasn't confused by anything and figured I'd pick up on who all the characters are as the series goes on from context clues.
