    I just

    I don't understand

    So ...

    Anyone read Secret Avengers #24 yet?

  • MunchMunch Registered User regular
    I did flip through it, to look at the last page.

    Yayyyyy!

    Hold on though
    That could be anyone from an adaptoid or other descendant android (we've seen that they like to take on personas of the dead heroes) to Flash somehow in the ant-man suit

    I refuse to make a call till this story ends!

  • MunchMunch Registered User regular
    Yeah, I'm cautiously optimistic.

    The solicits did say someone would die.

    So, who knows?

    I did think it was unusual that he would actually call himself the Irredeemable Ant-Man.

    Maybe it's Robert Kirkman then?

    probably because somebody forgot

    and that somebody

    was Brian Michael Bendis

    now I know what you are thinking

    Brian Michael Bendis? Forgetting or even worse, not knowing a point of continuity?

    madness

    and yet, I posit that it is the truth

    Even if Bendis did write that part I don't think you're snark would work. Hope's powers have always worked against the person it was stolen from correct? Rogue and any other power stealers too I think.

    what's that from?

  • wirehead26wirehead26 Registered User regular
    Isn't Avengers Assemble an exception to Bendis leaving the Avengers franchise at the end of the year? Maybe that's where they are going to put the Ultron War in?

    I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU!!!

    New Avengers 25, the issue where we figure out how the Phoenix FOrce and Iron Fist are linked

    We're getting a separate Ultron War mini this summer.

    Nope, he showed up in Avengers 12.1 and Point One, both of which were by Bendis and lead to Ultron War. Or the Age of Ultron whatever they are calling it.

    He was also in The first arc of the Avengers, and his head has been in Moon Knight.

    "Ride or Die?" asked Goku

    "Ride or Die" confirmed Dominic Toretto, as they took off to find the Dragon Balls in hopes of reviving their friend Sonic
  • WiseManTobesWiseManTobes Registered User regular
    His head was in Moon knight, but Inferno beat me to it, but on the topic of Moon Knight, surprised Madame Masque being unmasked in that title didn't cause any stir.
    ( she looks normal, and is just crazy I guess)

    It would have if anyone read it.

    But yeah, I'm shocked.

    what? boooo.

    She should have been like Dr. Blight at the very least.

    I think the Hood made her face normal again with the norn stones didnt he?

    "Ride or Die?" asked Goku

  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    Madame Masque wore the mask because she was horribly burned or scarred or something

    but The Hood cured that with his infinity gem powers during the second arc of Avengers

    I like Madame Masque's mask. Also, it's kind of thematic to her character, given the name and all.

    I'm just wondering how they're going to tie down the entire Moon Knight story with one issue left, #12 is supposed to be the last one right?

    Also, now that I've slow-poked through this week's pull, damn Vision. Cold as ice! I guess he has the right though considering.

    If you can't beat them, arrange to have them beaten in your presence.

    Yeah, shunning and being a dick to someone who can alter reality is a genius plan.

    everyone is the pheonix!

    actually wanda should just make that happen right now

    "danny rand is the pheonix."

    Danny Rand would usher in an era of peace, justice and kung fu

    Vision got killed last time, so in his mind, what's the worst that could happen?

    I think his "get that shit off my lawn" speech is totally justified.

    I write about video games and stuff. It is fun. Sometimes.
  • SolarSolar Registered User regular
    Well no

    she's not actually responsible for what happened

    because she was insane at the time

    Vision is wrong

    but then Vision is also going through severe trauma

    so it's understandable that he would feel that way

    I just read AvX #1. For some reason the comic shop in town had it on the shelves today. Nothing too crazy.
    Nova crash lands on Earth warning the the Phoenix Force is coming - there's no indication of who Nova is though. This gets the Avengers in a tizzy so Cap heads to Utopia to bring Hope into "protective custody". Cyclops pulls his whole "this is a mutant problem" and they get into a fight. Cap says "Avengers Assemble" and it turns out that the Helicarrier has been cloaked above the island with the Avengers (including Wolverine) ready to attack. They have some weird American Gladiator jousting sticks too.

    I always forget Wanda is a mutant.

  • Centipede DamascusCentipede Damascus Registered User regular
    That's probably because her mutant power is "can use magic"

  • KyouguKyougu Registered User regular
    Isn't that Magick's power too?

  • SolarSolar Registered User regular
    well actually her mutant power is that she can control quantum probability

    it's just that she also learnt magic

    mostly because she was already called the Scarlet Witch and some writer thought she should be a real witch

    Like the majority of Epic Ultimate Showdown Awesome Superhero Fights, the setup, cassus belli, whatever you want to call it for this seems a little...contrived.

  • SolarSolar Registered User regular
    They are all contrived

    they are fictional stories

    In the next issue, the battle is interrupted when both sides are forced to fight off the break-dancing demon monkeys that suddenly fly out of Wolverine's ass.

    THEY'RE FICTIONAL STORIES.
