    I just wanted to say I love your sig.

    I just wish it had Hulk speaking and everyone gasping.

    ...Except Daredevil, who's staring off to the side and gasping :lol:

    Thanks Muffin. I tend to change my sig and avatar whenever the mood strikes me. I thought about adding in the DD bit, but it seemed too long when I did.

    Regarding The Twelve, I was a bit dubious when I heard how the last issue ended, but since I haven't read it yet I'm witholding judgement.

    I'm still a little unclear on when New Avengers is happening with respect to OMD/BND. Has it not been made clear yet, or did I just miss the explanation?

    I ask because in that New Avengers Annual preview, Pete's taking off his mask in front of everyone.

    We don't know yet

    edit: but as this is a direct continuation of that NA story from a month or two ago, at the very least this issue is pre-OMD

    No, it's perfectly reasonable that a hit from average-strength Jigsaw can strike the superstrong Tigra with enough force to throw her off her bed, so we can get that top-down shot of her sitting on the floor. A pretty standard comic shot that's historically been the one used to portray weakness or vulnerability.

    Of course, Bendis also wrote Jigsaw breaking Spidey's arm back in the first issue of NA, so at least his apparent superstrength manifests when beating up both genders.

    I actually get the feeling, from reading the list of notes Tom Brevoort posted on his blog, which were sent to Bendis, that Bendis doesn't really have much of a mind for continuity/characterization unless it's a major character, or one he's spent a lot of time developing a voice for. Otherwise they just seem to be there to spit out Bendis-speak and act like what he needs them to act like. In this instance, it would have seemed more appropriate, to me, for Tigra to clench her fists and stew in helpless rage, rather than sit on the floor looking downcast. Both get across that she's essentially powerless in the situation the Hood's orchestrated, but having her react with more anger than depression would seem much more in line with her character, as she's traditionally been portrayed. Whatever though, NA's a great book and at least he hasn't just had the Hood cap her yet.

    I actually get the feeling that Tigra's going to do more in this issue than just get beat up. I wouldn't be surprised if she follows his gang to Strange's Sanctum and takes some revenge, maybe joining NA in the process?

    Hood was good in his mini and in Beyond.

    Unfortunately Bendis seems to be on a roll of taking characters that BKV has made awesome and sucking all the awesome out of them.

    The Hood is awesome, but yes most the rest of his crew are just generic super-thugs like the wrecking crew.

    But they are just there to beat shit up for The Hood so.. whats the problem.

    I don't know, maybe they need Soultaker? Or an odd oversight.

    Regardless, Cascioli's work is friggin' outstanding. It's a rare occassion when the fill in artist trumps the original guy.

    i'm thinking maybe Katana is paying back Marvel/Shazam/Whatever his name is (Billy) for helping her during Five of A Kind

    but then it's confusing if you don't know about that
