Since I assume it will come into play during this event now, did Nova's dad just disappear off panel or was it an on panel, but not seen by Sam thing?

Between this and All-New X-Men, Bendis really likes seeing the Watcher on a pulpit, eh?

This isn't Bendis.

Another Spider-Man doesn't seem like particularly interesting territory when there's already been so much cloning.

It's going to turn out the spider bit Jessica Drew, and everyone is going to have a good laugh and "I told you so!"

This is a costume from Marvel Heroes for Thing, called Thing Incognito.

Sin is the main story, Sins is an anthology book about characters not big enough to have their own books to drop secrets in.

Mighty Avengers is being canceled because nobody is reading it.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

I don't know. It was a sidebar article off a link someone posted.


Maybe it was just a rumor. It seems to sell well enough actually. A decent amount above Marvel's usual cancellation line.

I think it would be very highly regarded in BSS if it wasn't for Greg Land. Is Hickman's run going to be done by the time the movie comes out?

No. Hickman's run ends a few months later.

Edit: The first reports were September. I guess it's actually May.

So yes, same time.

Lets interject that little bit of reality into comics so we have to wonder why these super bad guys that outnumber all heroes ten to one don't start sniping people from a mile away as well. If our noble heroes are endorsing and actively participating in ambush murders and assassinations, why aren't the "bad guys" capable of the same?

Because Nick Fury does his job.


Also you might want to take a look at the team Fury chose again. The only 'noble' guy there is Panther and that's only in the literal sense. That's not an accident.

Aphrodite

I would think once superheroes emerged, Fury adjusted his role.

Black ops stuff or something. A demon making a move for Earth is Doctor Strange territory. A demon consolidating power who could potentially pose a threat down the line? That's Fury.

A skrull attack fleet is a job for the Avengers. A Skrull warlord back on their home planet building up his resources? Pop him from orbit.

"There's not time to explain!" he repeated seventy three times proving he actually had ample time to explain.

Also eye patch sporting military guy just chumped a bunch of more powerful people with no real explanation beyond badassry. Aaron really did say to himself "I can make Identity Crisis better."

It wasn't actually unexplained. He had crazy future space stuff.

The second word is obviously Alderaan.

Princess Leia as new Thor confirmed?

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

Jane has told Thor that like 4 times though. Why would it affect him more from Fury?

Making the main love interest character the female version of the hero is the most cliche way to go too.

You know how Wild, Wild West scientifically proved your eyes keep a static image of the last thing you saw?

Well look at how big his drat eyes are.

Aphrodite

He shoves the Watcher's eyes in his own sockets (He loses the other eye to.... Oh, I don't know, let's say Moe) and that makes his head swell up.

Does each eye contain half of Uatu's knowledge, or do both hold full copies of all his knowledge?

If he didn't have his eyes running in a RAID then I'm glad he's dead.

Next (and final) issue of Thor: God of Thunder, I mean. It comes out in a week and a half.

Then 2 weeks after that is the first issue of just "Thor".

Uatu isn't really important enough that it's inconceivable to think he'll stay dead a while.
