And here I thought Namor was only after Sue. Now I see he's just after any woman in a steady relationship.
He's like the ultimate Pool Boy or something.
Ha! I like that comparison. So now he has to go harass Hank and Brand (I can't think of any other stable relationship outside of Reed/Sue and Scott/Emma right now. Hulkling/Wiccan?)

Villains United ended with Misty and Paladin starting as a couple, which seems much more interesting than Danny and Misty acting like the Slater and Jessie of the Marvel Universe.

honestly the four pages of Defenders #5 were the first I have ever read of Misty and I am already pulling for her like woah
she seems like a really strong, good character

There really isn't much of her. I haven't read Defenders #5, but she just felt one-note in Immortal Iron Fist.
She was a bit better in the most recent Heroes for Hire and Villains for Hire (and the last Heroes for Hire series, too). I haven't read Defenders #5 yet either, but I'm kind of bummed she's already not with Paladin. Though, as I understand it, nobody read Heroes or Villains for hire.
they kept doing issues focusing on her and fuck that give me more awesome superhero mercenary team-ups. Give me more Moon Knight fighting Velociraptors.

Wasn't Heroes For Hire that series with the terrible hentai cover a few years back?

Yeah, exactly. That book was great when it was Paladin, Moon Knight, Black Widow, Iron Fist and so on being super-badasses. But Misty Knight as operator just didn't work for me. I can see that they were trying to go for an Oracle style thing there, but Misty is no-where near as cool as Oracle.
the 2006 Heroes for Hire was pretty damn good, that cover aside. It also shows Misty Knight as an actual character. I have no fucking clue what Abnett and Lanning were doing with their Misty Knight, but it was no good at all.
seriously the "By which they mean she is a mutant" line is driving me nuts
The Avengers don't want Hope because she is a mutant they want Hope because the Phoenix Force is heading to her and can kill everything
her being a mutant doesn't factor in at all

Phoenix Force has a history of only taking mutant hosts. And no one cared about it the other 5 times it's been here. Heck, the last time it was here, it helped stop notMagneto from destroying New York City.
This anti-mutant propaganda has gone on too long, the truth should be brought to light!
Yeah but the other times it was here it didn't preface it by travelling through the cosmos wiping out planet after planet after planet with no force able to stop it
and the fact that it takes mutant hosts is just a coincidence. The Avengers would be going after, say, Kate Bishop or something just as much if she was the host.

Again, I say, Scarlet Witch.
X-Men roll up, say "hey, she destroyed mutants". Avengers say "no, the reality-altering witch is our problem". X-Men say "grr. Okay." At which point the Avengers just let her roll out. AvX #0 showed they're not keeping her under any sort of custody.
So, given that, I think Scott's completely justified.
Take Children's Crusade out, and the Avengers may have a tiny something, but with it? Nah, they can screw off.

Really, if they let Scarlet Witch just get her just punishment then taking Hope would make more sense.
But Captain Amerikkka and his little thugs want to have their cake and eat it too, and no one is bringing this up and I wonder if it even will be brought up because it would make Cap look bad. AvX #0 dealt more with Wanda being bullied by Vision and trying to give her sympathy.

I expect Wanda to appear in the latter part of AvX.

Oh she will, it was in the solicits for issue #4 I believe, but I doubt what happened in Children's Crusade will get mentioned. I really want it to just so people who didn't read that trainwreck can understand Cyclops having a problem with giving up one of his when Cap wouldn't do the same thing.

X-Men Legacy #265 was a mixed bag, and I wonder if Gage led with his best issues and this might be what we will get from him in the future. The general idea is a good one, but it's executed in a way where despite being bombarded with characters pouring their hearts out it just doesn't connect, especially with Weapon Omega because he's never been interesting.
Basically Weapon Omega reabsorbed all the energy from Rogue and Mimic, and then Mimic uses Rachel's powers to put him in a lobotomized coma to trickle the energy down based on how little brain activity he has. It's a non-death death, clearing him off the table for a bit. And Mimic looks to join the faculty, which is a nice addition.
Sandoval draws a really weird Toad too, he looks more like a Goblin. And even he gets in on the mopey mopes this issue.
Scott is dumb as fuck if he thinks that anyone is or should just let him do whatever the fuck he likes with any mutant because they are mutants
guess what, Scott, you are making an incredibly risky attempt to force a Phoenix possession
other people have the right to be pissed at this
I get this feeling they're going to pull a 'Daredevil' with Cyclops. Everyone has been hinting at this, that this is so out of character for him to do this. I would not be surprised if there is some kind of posession going on (e.g. Shadow King, the Void).

Matt Murdock and Kirsten McDuffie.
Is Ben and that blind sculptor still a thing?
Iron Fist and Misty Knight.
thank god
I just find Misty Knight so boring
fortunately, Fraction seems to be setting up Danny and Betty Ross which is much more fun
I confess, I haven't had a chance to read it yet
seems like a shame though
they are trying
but they aren't there yet
That does make sense to me
I just don't like it because I find Misty to be rather characterless, and that relationship not to be fulfilling in a storytelling sense
she seems like a really strong, good character
and Misty Knight was the most boring part of it

That was the 2006 Heroes for Hire series.
Different series, same name.

crazy ass team, lemme tell you what
And Zeb Wells is a good writer which made that continuity flaw even more jarring.
Wasn't it that he got his body and mind screwed up by Savage Land bugs or something?
Let's Play Final Fantasy 'II' (Ch10 - 5/17/10)
Nope, he was acting completely different before that happened to him.
FUCK YOOOOOOU SCOTT

Mag-Not-O if you will.
I just want to get all this Hope stuff out of the way, so the Phoenix can go to Quentin Quire. Where it belongs.
