    So, I got to thinking...Luke Cage and Elektra will get to talking:

    Criminal to criminal, eh? Shit yes. N/A getting a possible Hand hookup? Shit yeah. If they're "criminals" they may as well act like it. It's the only way they'll stand a chance against Tony and the Inshitative.

    But yeah, again this could be my imagination running too wild.

    Why not... the Initiative has a group of five people who have collectively (possibly) murdered more people then the Hand, so why shouldn't they...

    I love how Ms Marvel is really living up to the Dumb Blonde stereotype. I mean SO fucking stupid. She is probably great in other titles but in NA she basically a loudmouth simpleton. And it's great. "I hope your wig glue makes you impotent" THat comment alolne could net the lawyer a cash winfall in a lwsuit. Seriously.

    I also like how Bendis is acknowledging how rich white folks with lawyers generally do not get thier rights stepped on while (Luke Cage) middle income black folks do. Compare the Iron Man trying to take in Luke Cage right at the begining of CW with the meeting he just had with Danny. Stark had even more evedience and reason to take Danny in using force then Cage, legally/politically, but he didn't and why?

    Lots of reasons but I can list a few. General Ppopulation tends to relate to millionares more then even the most heroic non-millionare/minority/non-playboy.
    GenPop generally tend to get worried if even rich dude can get his rights violated while they will make up reasons in order to support run of the mill power abuse. (Luke Cage must have done something to deserve how SHIELD brought tanks into his neighborhod).

    GenPop tend to rally with causes they think will win. Danny Rand's lawyer could throw up a fuss and make it seem like protesting for his release might actually help.

    I like NA, so far good writing, although ELectra forgiving a cunt punt so quickly is sort of wierd. Maybe she liked it.

    How could insulting someone result in a lawsuit? Especially if it's done in private.

    Furthermore the reason Rand wasn't brought in was because all of the evidence Stark had against Danny was collected through his armor. I don't know what you know about the legal system but if you bring in evidence through a certain type of technology the defense is allowed to supoena that technology to be studied in order to verify the evidence brought forth. Similarly, say I present an email as evidence in a court of law the defense can then supoena ALL of my emails on that computer and any computers networked to it.

    That's why Stark didn't push it.

    No it couldn't. If there's one thing I find ridiculous, it's people who clearly have no idea about a subject acting like they do.

    Ms. Marvel insulting the lawyer would get them nothing. Period. She can wish whatever she wants on him.

    The mistake they made was the idiotic, erroneous claim that if Iron Man brought recordings of the conflict into court, the lawyer could subpoena all the recordings Iron Man made. That's not even remotely true, and was clearly written by someone with no understanding of discovery in criminal and civil cases.

    I liked the issue except for Rand's apparently criminally incompetent lawyer.

    This isn't exactly true. The only way you get to examine the technology is if you have a legitimate claim that it was falsified. The determination of that falsifiability is done by a third-party expert (NOT the opposing party's expert), and remains sealed by the grand jury almost always. If it is deemed falsifiable, the only way the public (or opposing party) gets the info is if Iron Man tried to bring in the evidence.

    What would happen is that they wouldn't deem the evidence falsifiable, and the recordings would be admitted. All Rand's lawyers would get would be copies of the recordings, not the right to analyze the devices that made the recording.

    Don't misrepresent the law here.

    I didn't bring it up, but I can't let comments like "wishing cancer on someone would get them a windfall in court" and "admitting a recording as evidence automatically allows access to all recordings on that device", etc. stand without response.

    The comic is good, great art, but the reliance on completely false law is a mistake. You shouldn't use the law in your fiction unless you understand it, the same way you shouldn't use science in your fiction if you don't understand it.

    There was no need: they could just have had Strange block Stark's recordings.

    By the way, what the hell is up with Strange supposedly being unable to teleport them to Japan? Since when is he that much of a weakling?

    I still think Strange is there only to balance out Sentry. As in his motivation is making sure Sentry doesn't just go *lolzbrightsunnydaytimeSMACK*. I'll bet he won't do anything to help the team above and beyond what a 'regular' power in the MU could do.

    I think having the evidence come directly from the plaintiff's magic-techno armor would be reason enough to consider it potentially falsified.

    I don't think I'm misrepresenting the law. I know for a fact that if an email is brought forth the court can supoena whatever computer the email was downloaded on and any computers networked to it as I've seen it happen in my area of business.

    Okay, I can't say this more clearly than this: you're wrong, because email is not a 'recording'. It's not even remotely the same thing. The fact that you don't get that there's a difference in terms of the rules of Evidence between a device that records content and email isn't my fault. If you really want to push this, I can give you cases to explain.

    Digital files can be presented as evidence without demanding the ability to subpoena the device that stored it, or the device that recorded it. The ability to subpoena that device will depend on a host of other factors, e.g. the novelty of the device.

    Realistically, what would happen is that the Grand Jury would say "Stark's not lying." and the defense would have no access to his armor, only he recording.

    Rand would head right over to the Neg zone.

    So Miss Marvel, as an Agent of SHIELD can insult and wish sickness on the legal council of a suspect while on the clock and on a mission? There isn't some sort of irresposnibility, miss use of power/authority/priviledge/civil service or anything? No "higher standard"?

    My bad then.

    Also basically what you are saying is that instead of comparing the obviously comparible interactions (That of SHIELD coming after Luke Cage and Mighty Avengers coming after Danny Rand) you would rather argue with me about the way law works in a fictional universe? OK my bad then.

    You can show infra-red pictures during a drug case without having to bring in a FLIR setup, you just have to give the court a basic explanation of how it works right? I don't think a defense would want to subject a jury to hours and hours of 'spectral analysis this' or 'Reed Richard wrote me a 1000 page memo that', they'd just veg out and take the guy at his word.

I don't think a defense would want to subject a jury to hours and hours of 'spectral analysis this' or 'Reed Richard wrote me a 1000 page memo that', they'd just veg out and take the guy at his word.

    That's because infra-red pictures aren't a new, one-of-a-kind technology. They've already undergone scrutiny and been accepted as valid.

    Wait, wait, wait. Brother Voodoo is working with Tony? When the fuck is he doing this? Brother Voodoo is currently seeking out the Soul Eating guy in Wakanda as a favor to T'Challa. Man, I know Bendis is "the man" at Marvel and shit, but the least he could do is check and see which characters are in play. At least this explains Brother Voodoo's entry in the CW:Battle Damage Report.
    Man, subscribing to comics blows. I haven't gotten this issue yet. :v:

    When he dies, I hope they write "Worst Affirmative Action Hire, EVER" on his grave. His corpse should be trolled.

    Yeah, but the boards are pretty lame and the bags are just cellophane packaging. They only just manage to keep the comics from getting damanged in transit.

    I suppose this suggests that Iron Man falls under the Kyllo decision.

    Well it's not so much a device as an extension of his own senses. That is he would prove he can do it and testify that he "witnessed" Danny Rand under the mask of Iron Fist.

    Wow talk about realistic. The conflict of interest that is in comparison to real life officials. IRL conflict of interest is EVERPRESENT! I wonder just how many conflicting interests there are betwean Stark's companies and Rand's company. LOLS for DAYS!

    On top of that, infra-red pictures aren't stored in a helmet where he can edit it without missing a step.

    I figured he would claim that anything in the helmet could be bought from any authorized Stark tech vendor, then bring out his newest 3-d handycam and a computer with lots of Power Point slides, then proceed to talk about how smart he is and how awesome his inventions are.

    And then he would remind them that he has the power to level cities, and also he has the god of war on his team, so they should shut the fuck up and arrest whoever he wants them to arrest.

    Something tells me that he'd lose the trial.

    "ARREST THEM! I HAVE THE GOD OF WAR!"
