That's the one. With Gorr the God Butcher. The story goes for 11 issues.
|
Hmm, I don't even remember any time travel there. Only flashbacks. Then again, I don't really remember it that well anyway.

Bleedingcool reporting Marvel distancing themselves from Fantastic Four, might cancel the series and artists have been ordered not to sketch FF characters (including Galactus, Doom, Silver Surfer, Skrulls, etc.).
Speculation about Marvel's poor relationship w/FOX (X-Men too popular to cancel and distance from). Marvel apparently has a good relationship with SONY (Spider-Man). |
Josh Brolin will be the voice of Thanos
|
Ummm, is any of the upcoming films even supposed to feature Thanos?
|
He's meant to pop up in Guardians of the Galaxy in some capacity, since Ronan's supposedly working for him.
|
I like Brolin. Good pick.
|
Quote:
Then again, he'll probably show up for like 10 seconds tops. They got my hopes up with that post-credits scene and followed that up with nothing. Thanos definetely deserves a bigger part. |
He will, they're just building to it.
|
Seems pretty odd casting Brolin already when the first film he could get a bigger part in is Avengers 3.
But hell, enough with the bitchin'. Brolin is awesome so I wanna see that. |
....bigger part in...Avengers 3. You know what, I guess MAIN FUCKING VILLAIN isn't big enough for you.
|
Quote:
Is he supposed to be the main villain anywhere prior to Avengers 3? No? Shut the fuck up then. |
Also, he ain't even confirmed to be the main villain in Avengers 3 anyway.
|
Yeah he was pretty much confirmed to be the Avengers 3 antagonist. Not a press release or anything but all signs point to west, ya know?
|
Sixx you are literally so stupid I feel my own IQ going down just by being on a message board with you. You honestly don't think they'll throw Thanos as the main bad guy in Avengers 3? Cause that's just dumb.
|
God, fuck off shadow.

Anyway, was never a big fan of standalone titles focused on street level heroes (other than Spiderman, who I don't know if should still be considered one) but I checked out Mark Waid's run on Daredevil and I like it. Any other good Daredevil stories? I mean, I'm sure I read somewhere some other writer's DD run was really praised, just can't remember which, which volume was that and all.
|
Both Frank Miller and Ed Brubaker had phenomenal runs on Daredevil.
|
Thanks, gonna check it out.
|
The Brian Michael Bendis run on Daredevil was great as well. It leads directly into the Brubaker run too, so it's definitely worth checking out.
|
‘Sinister’s Scott Derrickson To Direct Marvel’s ‘Doctor Strange’.
|
You guys like Jared Leto? Because he might be Dr. Strange.
|
I do like Jared Leto. That's an interesting choice.
|
I don't get why Jean Grey is the poster child for comic book resurrection. She died twice, came back once.
That's not a lot by comic book standards. It's practically below average. |
Her return and persona best symbolizes the trope, I think.
|
I think it's mostly because the Dark Phoenix Saga was such a huge deal, and death/resurrection wasn't that common when she first did it.
|
Vincent D'Onofrio is going to be the Kingpin in the Daredevil series.
|
........SCORE!
|
This is very good news. I like this casting a lot.
|
Deathlok is being rebooted in the 616 to closer resemble the tragic portrayal of the TV version. Although not Mike Peterson (what!), this guy is also being manipulated by his handlers to do dirty deeds... until he starts to fight back.

Kinda looks like he has halfa Bishop's M over his right eye.
Basically looks a bit too much like this version of Bishop for my taste, don't like it. http://cdn.screenrant.com/wp-content...-004-Cover.jpg |
We all look the same, I agree.
|
Sad attempt to turn that into racism.
|
Yeah, definitely more a fan of the classic Deathlok look. This one looks kind of generic.

Can someone tell me which series (and maybe which issues) show Wolverine losing his healing factor for good recently?
You know, that stuff that leads to him getting offed in 3 months. |

Just read some Ultimates for the first time and wow at how fucking awful Thor is there.
A dirty hippie activist. What a shitty reimagining. And Hawkeye looks like a faggot with those earrings. |
What?
Ultimate Thor is great, you philistine. |
Are you fucking kidding?
Ultimates vol.1 - he's a fucking hippie activist, always speaking up against governments, saying he will only join the Ultimates if the POTUS doubles huminatarian aid budget, talking about saving the environmnent and whatnot. He is awful there. I can only hope he gets better later on. |
He's awesome because they keep you guessing as to whether he is the real deal or not.
Also, as much as I love 616 Thor, he's kind of one dimensional. The Ultimates version is at the very least a more interesting take on the character. Also, Ultimates 3 is garbage by the way. Takes everything cool about Ultimates, throws it out the window, and basically turns it into a generic 90's team superhero book. |
Quote:
Was that the one about: SPOILER: show |
And back to Thor, ok, I gotta agree it's pretty fun with this whole "is he crazy or really a god", but that activist bullshit gets on my nerves. Never met a norse god, but that doesn't seem like shit they'd get into.
|
Nah Ultimates 3 was the awful one by Jeph Loeb involving terrible stuff that I don't even remember. Think it was the Scarlet Witch getting shot, or something.
|
They get back on track with Ultimate Avengers though.
|
Yeah, I found the one I meant.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimat..._The_Ultimates Only entertaining part of this was the Asgardians breaking into a brewery. |
Strange since that series is generally regarded to be fairly good, although I've not made it that far yet myself.
|
Quote:
|
I loved the inital concept of the whole Ultimate line but they shit the bed so badly with it that Spiderman is the only title left i even remotely look at
|
Ultimatum is probably the worst thing I've ever read. It's like the comic equivalent of a sociopathic 9-year-old's action figure playtime. "And... and... Then Blob EATS HER! And like 20 people drown over there but we won't show it!"
|
So apparently Thor is soon to be replaced by a female Thor.
Quote:
|
Seems kind of dumb seeing as how Thor was the character's name not the persona's name like they could do with Spiderman. Whatever though, it's Marvel so I'm sure usual Thor will be back by next summer when Avenger's comes around.
|
Well, considering that Thor has been a frog and a lizard-alien thing, I don't think a woman is that big a stretch.
|
Huh.
I don't "hate" the idea I just don't understand it. Was Thor selling bad or something? |
*sigh*
|
Quote:
So yeah. Naming her Thor doesn't make sense to me either. Also, they've already had a female Thor for years. She's called Valkyrie. Dunno why they didn't just give her a series. Will wait to read tho, as any concept can be good if written well. |
Yeah the concept of the story I have absolutely no problem with, could be very cool, just calling her Thor seems odd.
|
I remember years ago when they had Eric Masterson (sp?) replace Thor for whatever reason, I thought that was pretty cool, but again I don't think he was called Thor they gave him some other name.
|
Someone just showed me that. I'm not a comic reader so I didn't know if it was breaking news or something. I came here to tell you about it anyway but it's not as new as I thought. http://marvel.com/news/comics/2014/7..._presents_thor
I do know that comics undo things like crazy, though. A character dies "for realsies" but is ressurected by something or someone a few issues later, for example. Male Thor will do something to make up for whatever he did to mess up and be back eventually, Why the sigh from Kalyx? New character for MvC4. Just 10 more years to wait. |
I commented on i09 that her keeping the Thor name was very senseless, in that Thor is 'Thor' because that's the name his parents gave him. The hammer gives you the power of Thor, but it doesn't make you Thor. You're just worthy at the time. Essentially they wanted to keep the title on the book for sales.
Bear in mind it's already been mentioned that Valkyrie is essentially Batwoman to Thor's Batman. She could have the hammer without having the name (it could very well be her, though). And what about Lady Sif? She's had way more exposure after two movies and one of the most fun episodes of Agents. Just comes off strange, abrupt, and desperate - sense this is mostly to score points with the SJW/Feminist crowd. Falcon may well take a turn as the new Captain America for similar reasons (though there's more narrative weight to that at least). So no this doesn't excite me for a new character in a game. She's not gonna last long enough to be in a game anyway. Alt costume DLC fodder, at best. |
Like the suit, though.

I wondered if he'd keep his wings or not. Guess so. |
http://oyster.ignimgs.com/wordpress/...engers-now.jpg
At the very least that 'Superior Iron Man' is still Stark. |
I wonder if people will be as pissed about Captain America being black as they are about Thor being a woman.
This looks like it's just an alternate series of comics but the "real" Captain America and Thor will continue. Is that it? |
No, it's the 616 Universe. These are the replacements for now.
And it's Falcon, he more than earned the title long ago. It makes more sense than a possibly random chick being named Thor. A woman wielding the hammer isn't really an issue (at least for people who aren't assholes). |
Is it 616 as in the devil?
It's hard to tell who is mad because it's a woman and who's mad because they hate change of any kind. |
Nerdrage can be anything.
616 is the designation for the main Marvel comics universe. |
It's also the real number of the beast. Some ancient king read it and said it must be a mistake and it must actually be three 6's. It always was supposed to be 616.

I'm cool with Falcon being Cap-- in fact, I kinda wished that he inherited the mantle back when Rogers died after Civil War.
I do think, though, that this isn't being done as any sort of natural progression of characters or story, and more just a way to garner attention and get pats on the back for being 'so progressive.' Otherwise a black Cap and a female Thor wouldn't be rolling out at the exact same time. So, it's a good move, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth because I feel like they're doing it for cynical reasons. |

Superior Iron Man
http://www.newsarama.com/images/i/00...jpg?1405605708 Stark's required 'dark side' saga sees him changing his armor to something Apple would approve. |
Blah, was hoping it would be Octavius in that suit.
Anyway, any particular reason stated for that many changes to Marvel characters this year? |
Oh and why is Falcon Cap now?
Rogers dies again? |
Just a shake up for the Avengers line of books (Avengers NOW) similar to what they did a little while ago across the whole slate. Things may return to normal by the time Avengers 2 drops in theaters.
Most of these changes are coming off the AXIS event. Don't know what happened there, don't think anybody died. |
Apparently the Super Solider Serum is no longer working for Cap and he ages 65 years fairly quickly and thus is unable to be Cap. No idea why this happens though.

I used to have a run of comics from the 90s with this idea, I think Stark developed a suit or something to keep him going until they found a cure. He didn't really age though.

Quote:
I thought Original Sin was the big event this year. God, I am way behind. |
AXIS is yet another big event, coming later in the year. Avengers and X-Men versus the Onslaught-ed up Red Skull, basically.
|
I honestly don't like this Marvel trend, of showing a bunch of new teams and status quos before the event that leads to them even finishes.
|
Is Iron Man being sexed up by GlaDOS in that picture up there!?
|
Oh and the new suit looks freaking awesome IMO.
|
Feel like Iron Man has been changing his armor too much the past few years.
He's had quite a few different armors over the years, but he's always kept them long enough that they become memorable and iconic in their own way. Lately it seems they've been changing him up before I even get a chance to really appreciate the armor. |
Official MCU film dates:
Phase Two Guardians of the Galaxy: August 1, 2014 Avengers: Age Of Ultron: May 1, 2015 Phase Three Ant-Man: July 17, 2015 Captain America 3: May 6, 2016 Untitled Film: July 8, 2016 (Probably Doc Strange) Untitled Film: May 5, 2017 (Avengers 3? Bear in mind this would be Justice League's year) Likely Phase Four(!) Guardians of the Galaxy 2: July 28, 2017 Untitled Film: November 3, 2017 (Almost certainly Thor 3) Untitled Film: July 6, 2018 Untitled Film: November 2, 2018 (Interesting) Untitled Film: May 3, 2019 (Civil War if there's a god) |
Why is November 2, 2018 interesting?
|
Wait they announced a phase 4?
|
They didn't "officially" announce a phase four, but they announced a bunch of movie release dates. Kalyx is just speculating the Phase Three/Phase Four dates.
