    The fact that he was being a dick to Reed is probably why I like him so much.

    And also
    who the hell is that kid? I hope he can figure out how to get Jen to hulk out again. And hes recruiting FOR the Hulk for some reason? I get the feeling this is going to rock.

    That kid is Mastermind Excello, one of the smartest persons on earth. He's right up there in Reed Richards/Bruce Banner/Tony Stark territory. He's already handily outsmarted Reed once. I'd say chances are very good that he'll be able to fix Jen right up.

    According to Reed, he's the 7th smartest.

    Here's a link to a set of previews Newsarama put up, all three of them Marvel Initiative titles for the month of May.

    http://www.newsarama.com/marvelnew/May07/previews/initiative.html
    So not everyone working at the camp is kept in the loop. Also, should we expect Justice and The Gauntlet to have 'words' over the latter's special use of the New Warriors name?

    Gauntlet's being a dick. What a surprise. And Trauma needs to have his ass beat or just killed for being an emo bitch.

    Anyway,
    That should go without saying. I'm sure there's quite a bit of compartmentalization going on.

    I'd like to see it, but if he hasn't yet...

    It really is unfortunate how they're portraying her now; it's almost like they're trying to make her seem annoying. You've got this woman who apparently complains that she can't sleep around enough, sleeps with a guy she doesn't even like as a person, decks the guy (which shows how much trust she had in him) without thinking of the consequences....

    By the way, is anyone able to explain why Tony's tech worked to depower her, but it couldn't have worked on the Hulk? Is there something I'm missing?

    Wow, I don't even read The Initiative and it's official: I hate Gauntlet. I hope so hard that he runs into the New Warriors and gets his shit handled. Seriously, fuck that guy. Also, all of the good will I had for Hank after his reaction to Goliath's death has been obliterated.

    CBR had an interview with Kevin Grevioux about the New Warriors. It's mostly a retread of what we've heard already, though there are a few good bits of new info. Also, there's this new pic, which might help shed light on who Wondra is:

    I know it doesn't look likely, but man what I would give for Noval just to trounce on Iron Man. Or you know, Hulk could do it too, I'm not picky.

    He also said that about the "big" HoM reveal that Hawkeye was alive.

    He sorta just throws it around.

    It's more than likely just a big cyber-terrorism threat, with the likelihood of that being greater than something neat actually happening.

    I dunno if I care for that remark from Pete. I mean, Typeface was killed recently while acting against the SHRA. Lame or not, he should have some fucking respect for the dude.

    I'd be happier with that Thunderbolts preview if someone would tell Mike Deodato that Phoenix actually looks nothing like New York - and in the city we don't have water towers because we get our water from the canals. Artists should really look at some pictures before they start drawing places they've never been.

    Oh and also - everybody pictured standing outside should look a lot more miserable. Because it is fucking hot outside!
