Best Plot Twist moment of the week: Daredevil. The Lady Bullseye arc ended this week.
Who would've thought that the Hand wanted Murdock as their leader! Sweetness.

Sucks that White Tigress and Tarantula are still under Hand control.

Best Ongoing Monthly moment of the week: Captiain America. Holy shit, why is Ed Brubaker so awesome? Oh and Natasha delivers.


Best Art Moment: Wonder Woman. The two-page spread of Diana, Donna, and Cassie in their full body armor with the gorilla soldiers was fantastic. Someone needs to post a scan.

    Someone actually reads Crossed? I thought it existed purely to gross people out and invite ridicule.

    Makes you wonder what other famous monsters might be improved if given a tendency to rape. For instance, what if Abbot and Costello met the Mummy and then he raped both of them? Then Frankenstein comes in and says, "Grrr, looks like you're having a party..."

    Sadly, it was just a very cheesy line. But thank you for posting the image. I love the look of all 3 sets of armor.

    Actually, Agent Tresser had a good line in Wonder Woman. Something about the "Justice Teens." I thought it was comical.

    Ego is the new Xandar (literally, Nu Xandar) and Worldmind has pretty much reconstituted himself as Ego. Rich goes to clear his head where he meets the F4, who scrambled after Ego showed up. They have a chat, which is interrupted by Rich's annoying ass brother and Worldmind, where Rich finds out the strain of the entire Nova Force could be driving him insane. Rich relents, and returns to Ego to give up the power, but at the last second he realizes something is wrong, and tries to run. As he's flying away, Worldmind zaps him, drains him of the Nova force (all of it, including his Centurion powers) and then teleports him back to his home, naked.

    New Avengers had a pretty awesome moment when
    Luke Cage smashed the shit out of Bullseye and Venom with the Wreckers crowbar. Even better when Venom appeared as splat on the wall after the hit.

    The ending sounds pretty good too with Clint getting upset at the sight of the Dark Avengers and tells everyone to suit up for a rumble.

    The bit at the end from Mandark showing up onwards would have been pretty awesome if it hadn't been such a fucking massive non sequiter.

    The page with the two Monitors saying goodbye before they faded out of existance was fucking heartbreaking also

    Get new power from another source? Is Worldmind really acting suspiciously? I didn't see any reason for him to think WM was being suspicious about powering up the reserves.

    He'll hook up with Quasar, I'm assuming. As for Worldmind jacking him...well Rich really sorta had it coming. Worldmind nearly died completely thanks to him, and he's been pleading since Annihilation for Rich to go restart the Nova Corps.

    except that he's said on multiple occasions that he'd like to avoid the slaughter that happened with the previous corps, which is why he wants to make sure that all of the candidates were up to the challenge. like he said in the issue itself, it wasn't so much a matter of if they were willing to be centurions, but if they could stand up to it.

    which is why he got so upset in the first place and probably why he sensed that something was wrong

    Yep exactly, Richard might have been more obstinate about it then he needed to be, but the Worldmind is now jumping in to it far to fast.

    It's fairly obvious that Ego voluntarily gave himself to Worldmind that he knew he could eventually influence it, which is why Worldmind wen't from "ehh, you're kinda right about holding off on the new Nova Corps: to "FUCK YEAH LETS GET IT STARTED PRIVATE ARMY YEAH".

    Also yes Rich is definatley hooking up with the remnants of Quasar, but it makes me sad because that means somthing bad is going to happent to Quasar, again.

    Man just can't get a break, even as an Energy creature thing.
