    things are crazy.

    There's so many of these ads in the comics my uncle gave me. Also so many of the Hostess fruit pie comics
    Anyway, what's the consensus on X-Men Noir? I thought it was pretty decent and I want to see where it goes from here

    I was the proud owner of a one-inch square Texas ranch; sadly, the deed was lost in the flood that wrecked my house. I wish I had waterproofed the damn thing because I could be rich right now.

    man back in my day these offers were like, "Learn the secret of fire! Only 2 sea shells!"
    "Get the new pointed stick! Useful for fending off dinosaurs or for hunting! Far superior to the traditional unpointed stick! Satisfaction guaranteed!"
    "Amazing musical rocks! Bang them together and be a hit at parties!"

    Man, I had to work my ass off for those stone tablets. You know the ones with Caveman and Rockboy? The etchings on those by Bill Kave and Grog Liebowitz were fuel for my young neanderthal mind.

    Avengers never really made sense to me as a team name

    hence my favoritism towards Ultimates

    What
    I'm pretty sure it's focusing on one team of Ultimate Avengers and you know what if Millar decides that bringing all the characters whose books were canceled in as the main members fuck that that is dumb

    Speaking of GeoForce, he picked boogers for like 3 pages.

    The only part I didn't like were the ads for the Spirit. samuel jackson looks like the worst drag queen ever

    Here's how they're gonna run (to the best of my knowledge).

    Dark = New official Avengers team for the Initiative.

    New = Still going on as anti-SHRA underground team.

    Mighty = The few details out makes it look as if initial team will be pulled together due to League-Of-Losers scenario, then the lineup will resettle into a JLI-type group.
