The only Howard-related comics I've read were some of the She-Hulk books where some guy gets transported to Howard's homeworld.

Basically unless it's his numbered Series or the max one you're better off not reading it.

And as a Rule She-Hulk Comics are never good unless Dan Slott writes them

He was one of the writers on this one.

Spoiler:

Ah I wasn't aware of that. I'm about 5 years behind on trades.

I loved that horrifying ball of tentacles.

Of course, I sucked no matter who I used.

SabreMau

Fun times.

Brainiac 8

This series was fantastic.

Reynolds

Back when Generation X was amazing. I remember coming back after I'd stopped collecting it to find out Chamber had become a male model or something. Ugh.

Brainiac 8

Yup, and now all the Gen Xers are gone other than M and Husk. (Unless you want to count Apocalypse Jr)

blaze_zero

Man, I have no idea what you guys are talking about.

Guess I need more comic books.

SabreMau

I remember seeing the Generation X made-for-TV movie with Matt Frewer back in '96.

It was kinda low-budget.

I was great with him. I thought he was a decent under used character. He had an air throw that absorbed life from his opponent and his Mystic Slash move could be used in mid-air. The Mystic Stare was great for pressuring people into attacking you. Chaos Dimension did a ton of damage (even though it used up 3 super bars).

I had a lot of fun smacking people around with him, Jin, and Tron.

You must be my clone or something. Swap tron for blackheart and that's my team too.

Howard the Duck's alt costumes should be Darkwing Duck, Donald Duck, and Maui Mallard as Cold Shadow

YOU JERK. Now all I can think about is Darkwing Duck should be in the game.

And now all I can think about is how your sig-image character should be in the game. No, not the Punisher (though in retrospect I'm AMAZED that he hasn't shown up in one of these fighting games yet.) At least one of the Runaways could be nice. Haven't they been trying to get a movie made as well for them?

If for some reason Stephen Colbert does make it into the game.

This has to be his victory animation:

SabreMau

I keep thinking that's Bob Saget.

RoyceSraphim

Wow, I'm glad my parents got a saudi bootleg version of the movie, that meant I got all the laser action and none of the bedroom action.

RE:Colbert

If you beat him, he needs to sit up and do the fist with DANTEEEEEE! SHE-HULLLLLLLK! ARTHURRRRR!


OOOH! He enters the stage like Thor, dropping down with the American flag.

Taramoor

Honestly, if Colbert makes it in, I think he should just be an alt costume for Captain America.

Only when he tags in the other characters should call him Mr. President

Oh, and I got this a little while ago.



That one's going in the permanent collection.

The Movie has been delayed indefinitely, so boo to that. Molly would be amazing as a character, but there's no way that's ever going to happen, ever ever ever, so I'm not even the littlest bit hopeful for it.

Wait wait wait wait wait.

Is that Howard hanging around with Franklin Richards, Artie, Leech and Man-Thing?

Why did I not know about this series?!?

Brainiac 8

Yup, that's what it is Cloud.

It was when Howard helped Franklin, Artie, and Leech escape during (if I remember correctly) the Operation: Zero Tolerance story. Man-Thing uses the nexus to help them escape, and it's all about them trying to survive while Howard feels like a glorified babysitter.

It was a fantastic and hilarious mini series.

Also the interesting thing about the leaked list is that it doesn't have a single deconfirmed thing on it, even stuff that was deconfirmed after the guy posted it, thus making it significantly more legit seeming than the others, at least.

That sounds awesome. I've gotta track that down. Is there a trade paperback of that out yet? (Yeah yeah, I'm part of the problem, etc.)

Skull2185

I would pay 60 dollars to beat the shit out of Bill O'Rielly and Tucker Carlson.

Video Game or otherwise.

No trade as far as I know...you may have to try and buy the issues seperately from Milehigh comics or ebay. They shouldn't be too expensive.

It's worth it, the story is strange, humerous, and quite a bit trippy.

cloudeagle

Sounds right up my alley.

If nothing else, the fact that Howard keeps popping up in recent comics (I think he was a main character in the latest Marvel Zombies) makes it that much more possible Marvel will push for him to be in the game. That's the main reason Super Skrull made it now, after years of relative low-tier status, after all.

Though it does beg the question: why would a Capcom internal roster list only have headshots for the characters that were already confirmed to the public, and not for the rest? It's not like Capcom hasn't had official art for every character for months now.

I loved Generation X (its a shame most of them are dead or so far from what they were, because I'd have loved to see Penance - the ORIGINAL Gen X version - or Chamber in MvC3), and that mini series was fantastic.

Generation X was just the best comic until issue 50. Thats how long I stuck with it. The fact that artie, leech and franklin lived in a tree house on the grounds was always a great source for either comic relief or really well done heartwarming moments.

Brainiac 8

Mondo.

That roster does seem pretty crazy imbalanced. Spider-Woman? Two Dr. Strange villains? That red thing from Ghosts and Goblins?

Then again all of the Marvel vs. Capcoms have been crazy imbalanced. Check out the roster for Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter:

Marvel Capcom
Blackheart Akuma (Gouki in Japan)
Captain America Chun-Li
Cyclops Dan
Hulk Dhalsim
Omega Red Ken
Shuma-Gorath M. Bison (Vega in Japan)
Spider-Man Ryu
Wolverine Sakura
Zangief

I mean, you only have eight Marvel slots with thousands of potential characters to choose from, and you lard it up with Omega Red, Shuma-Gorath and Blackheart?

Edit: And I'm all about Howard the Duck.

Hey...Shuma Gorath is king. I couldnt tell you a single book he was in (and i have read marvel for almost 30 years) but i rocked with him in marvel superheroes .

MC Mystery

I don't get why we'll never see Runaways characters. It just seems to me, that they should be in all the marvel games, but they haven't been. : (

Likely because its a fake based on the original posts made. It probably has nothing to do with the guy leaking stuff. It doesn't make what he said more or less valid. It's completely unconnected, and before anyone asks yes it is completely fake because Spider-Woman has the Spider-Man logo, something only a person unfamiliar with the character would do.

Runaways is the definition of a "cult hit". It has a very vocal and loyal fanbase and critical acclaim but the sales have never been there.

Brainiac 8

Yea, having Spider-Woman there with SM logo is very much a dead giveaway that it's fake.

I still hope we get Howard.

Reynolds

Well we might actually be getting one of the good Spider-Woman characters that's actually somewhat connected to Spider-Man, and not the flying, psychic secret agent.

You mean like this one?

SabreMau

Spider-Girl, maybe? The new one that has an eponymous comic title coming out next month?

cloudeagle

Hm. Which Spider-Woman is Marvel currently pushing? The flying secret agent Spider-Woman was the most recent active one according to Wikipedia.

Then again (if the list is real) Marvel may have chosen to lump her into a banner that would be the most recognizable and user-friendly. Kind of like they did with MODOK... he's been the heavy to lots of heroes, but they had to pick just one banner.

Maybe? But I'm pretty sure the guy would say Spider-Girl if it was Spider-Girl.

She is the only Spider-Woman right now, with Mattie Franklin dead and Julia Carpenter Madame Web

Wait, Madame Web? When did that happen? Hopefully they're not going back to the "animal totem" garbage.
