MOTW 3/20/13: Why not get exotic?

Let's take a moment from laughing at DC's follies!

New Avengers #4, Tony invents a big vacuum!

another earth pops up, but a solution has arrived:

newavengers4c_zpsc08dda7c.jpg

newavengers4d_zps12b3cb31.jpg

It's that world's Galactus, trying to destroy the other earth because it puts their universe at risk, pretty much a freebie for the NA crew in having to decide what to do, but they still choose to fight to save it. Terrax is his herald.


Avengers #8, you're not the boss of me, Avengerdad!

Indestructible Hulk #5, Bruce's idea of changing won't fly in today's litigious society!

    Okay, does the full comic make Thor's actions less douchey?

  • TexiKenTexiKen Dammit! That fish really got me!Registered User regular
    not really.
    Kevin throws Hulk into orbit, and then Cap says the army needs to stand back while they "subdue" Kevin. Kevin then asks why, and you get that Hyperion scene which leads right into Thor being a jerk. And then they all fight until Nightmask takes Kevin away.

  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    Nah, Thor and Hyperion were kind of huge dicks this issue.

    Hulk is understandable since, y'know, Hulk.

    My favorite bit of the issue was
    Bruce Banner getting the first clue towards the Illuminati being up to some heinous shit.

    well
    More Than Meets the Eye is a thing that should be read
    issue 15 had so many good little moments that were based on moments in prior issues, just a really good, effective buildup all leading to this ish
    unfortunately this means I can't pick one in particular as the moment this week
    the ending was brutal when you care about the characters, but it has too much leadup to post
    Rung, the ship's psychiatrist, has a talk with Fortress Maximus, the former warden of Garrus 9 who lost it

    I don't get the Ipad recording thing in USM

  • UltimateInfernoUltimateInferno Registered User regular
    It's the whole thing of recording police doing "unlawful" stuff and posting it on the internet, since Hill was in a sense "harassing" them without a warrant in their home.

    Saga continues to be wonderful. The posted moment wasn't even my favourite this month.

    No images, just a spoiler:
    The flashback with his dad was my favourite.

  • jkylefultonjkylefulton Squid...or Kid? NNID - majpellRegistered User regular
    I have to say, Anti's zealotry with the Transformers books finally convinced me to pick everything up in bulk, and its all really well done! I still have issues distinguishing some of the characters from one another, but that's more of my being an old man than a fault with the books themselves. So - thanks for the recommendation, Anti!

    i giggled at those panels

    second panel's page looks like it's breaking the fourth wall in the best of ways

  • KyouguKyougu Registered User regular
    Is Vibe good?

    Cause those panels almost sold me on it.

  • sweetcreamscoopssweetcreamscoops Registered User regular
    The panels are from JLA but honestly I'd say Vibe's been surprisingly good. The main plot with Argus leaves something to be desired but Cisco's personality and relationship with his brother are great, and it's very light hearted and fun. It's currently more Blue Beetle than Blue Beetle is. Here's a great scene from the preview:

    Closest thing DC has to a Spider-Man right now.

    Captain Marvel and Hulk's fastball special from Avengers #8 definitely got a grin out of me. The look they give each other is just great.

    also Texi sadly didn't include my favorite single line from this week, which was in New Avengers when Namor laughs at the idea that one of them is not coming back from this incursion.

    "Let hope die, fools. It's time to embrace oblivion. We are already dead."

    [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
  • Undead ScottsmanUndead Scottsman Registered User regular
    Namor is like that one guy a party that everyone hates. Do we know who specifically invited him to this incarnation of the Illuminati?

    Also, why is the Illuminati a New Avengers subfranchise? I never got that.

  • BalefuegoBalefuego Registered User regular
    Black Panther invited all of them to Wakanda

    and it's because the entire concept of the Illuminati was born in New Avengers (the Bendis version)

    [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    Also because a book named "New Avengers" will sell better than one called "The Illuminati".

    He's the Captain Speirs of the group.

    Which now makes me anticipate there being a "He came back" moment.

    Also makes me anticipate the "loot anything not bolted down" phase, if only to watch Namor try to sneak off with the FF's silverware.

    By extension that would involve naked Tom Hardy, which tumblr would eat up.

  • ElderlycrawfishElderlycrawfish Registered User regular
    Dang , i didnt realize that was Hardy but now i totally can.

    come to think of it

    Tom Hardy would make a fantastic Namor

  • Robos A Go GoRobos A Go Go Registered User regular
    I'd sooner go with Fassbender, because he's leaner and has a more enigmatic look to his face.
    He could also fill out a green speedo better.

  • ElderlycrawfishElderlycrawfish Registered User regular
    Not so much fill out as utterly destroy that speedo.

    I don't think they make spandex strong enough to contain Fassbender.

  • CrimsondudeCrimsondude Registered User regular
    I don't know. Jon Hamm's giant penis has gotten a lot of press this week, and he definitely deserves to helm a movie franchise. But these are all worthy ideas.

  • wirehead26wirehead26 Registered User regular
    Questionable story aside (that kinda affects the entire orginal series), Avatar: The Last Airbener: The Search part 1 had fantastic art all around.
