Odin the All-Fatherer. Also, between the Terrigen Mists being released on Earth and now Uatu being blinded (and, well, dead), how is this not countdown to Earth X? Who knows, maybe the next secret is that Wolverine is related to Moon Boy.

To be fair, Tony Stark went incognito once just by shaving, and all of AIM didn't notice.

Is there a reason Dr. Midas dresses like Iron Man from the '60s? Also, for all the crazy and campy bullshit I've seen in comics over the years, I'm sort of stuck in a quantum superposition of loving and hating Nick Fury just taking everyone to the moon in a flying car that bears an eerie resemblance to the one Coulson flies/drives in the S.H.I.E.L.D. TV show. I mean, it's awesome in its sheer ridiculousness, but then again, it would have to be the Magic loving Schoolbus to do that. Anyways, the Strange/Castle team-up I'm looking forward to. The Lang/Frost pairing? Not so much. Also, wasn't Uatu married with a wife and kid? Is the Fulcrum going to make an appearance; the death of a Watcher must be pretty serious poo poo. And with Uatu dead, who the hell is going to curate the What If? stories now!?

That moment Fury had with his flying car was amazing, and reminded me why I read comic books. Coincidentally, while waiting for the MTG Game Day tournament, I picked up the latest issue of Nova, having never read the title before, and thought it was a really sweet, touching story until I got to the end, and he was referring to his friend on the Moon. My heart crept up into my throat, and then I saw the last panel.

I was 99% sure it was an LMD but for some reason everyone at my LCS thought they'd actually finally killed off the real Nick Fury (oddly enough more out of a hate for Bucky than cynicism regarding Samuel L. Fury). I mean, having your hand shot off and then being decapitated with a machete would be pretty loving manly but simultaneously too unceremonious for Nick "Goddamn" Fury.Little Mac posted:Nick Fury, Jr. is actually the SON OF AN LMD.

If his spidey-sense was always working he wouldn't have to wear a hardhat. I also find it funny that Nick thought he was going to be such a huge threat that he brought his special new monster-killing gamma bomb gun for THE MAN-SPIDER and it's like "oh it's a kid in red and blue pajamas, I thiiiiink we can let this one go".

What was Howard the Duck's secret? I also feel miffed that Marvel was touting, and I quote, "At long last, Jason Aaron and Mike Deodato reveal who pulled the trigger!" No! You didn't! Even Panther was like "I swear to god Nick tell us what happened to the Watcher--"*tangent/interruption*"--GOD DAMNIT". Four Score fucked around with this message at 05:06 on Jul 17, 2014 |

The Illuminati are a genuinely interesting concept that would work far better if we actually got to see the poo poo they did that worked to juxtapose with the things they do that go horribly wrong and spawn off the great big event comics like Secret Invasion and World War Hulk. I mean, in New Avengers we're seeing them save the universe, and in Avengers, we see that the "Avengers Machine" Stark and Reed build lasts thousands of years and results in a planet-sized utopia that patrols not only the known universe but the known multiverse, working retroactively through time as well. The problem is that we only ever see them when things do go wrong, and for the interim between their appearances we're never given much reason to attribute things going right to them.

I don't think Fury's fate is as bitter a pill as people are making it out to be. If anything, the Watchers granted him his last wish: to bear witness to the Earth surviving, just so he'd know his entire life was worth it. Of course, giving him cosmic awareness and all that other mojo, Fury would start on an interference streak that would make Uatu look like an absolute non-entity, hence he's chained up. Fury will probably end up being a better Watcher than Uatu ever was, just because the actual Watchers can control him.
