Echoes of the Multiverse

One of the interesting moments for me in that series was When Abe and Songbird were flying around doing basic superhero stuff. they run into Natasha who talks to them about being a hero and how lies can be dangerous and how they need to make a choice real soon as to what theyre going to do and what...

Ah, Thunderbolts. The original run was one of the saving graces of Marvel after Onslaught. I collected the series more or less up to when Hawkeye joined the team, after that the publication schedule became too erratic for me. In and of itself the series could have been a very mediocre redemption tal...

It's striking me as strange that several of the Hawkeye characters look like they would be right at home in a Punisher comic.

Is Hawkeye really that street level?

Most people consider him to be that based on the fact that he's "only human".

I found the comic pretty interesting, and certainly the most well-written "Sexual Fetish/Smut Comic" out there (um, not that I've read a lot of those. Or anything), given that it would let the story breathe instead of cramming the smut onto every single page. The art and poses were very well done, ...

Funny thing about "it was a skull": Bobbi was actually shown multiple times to be in Hell during the time when she was dead. Both she and Patsy Walker were in the Arena of Tainted Souls forced to fight continuously. Hawkeye and the Thunderbolts went into Hell to try to rescue Bobbi but were tricked...

Why Hawkeye is the Best: -So yeah, Clint is AWESOME. Though sadly a bit unable to keep a solo book going, this makes him an ideal candidate for membership of the Avengers, Avengers West Coast, or as the main star of the Anthology-title Solo Avengers . And despite this inability to hold a solo book,...

I love Sejic, but Sunstone felt really weird when I first read it. On one hand, is a one of the few really good representation of a BDSM relationship, on the other I really can't get behind the characters.

The fury bettle is just one step on the wrong side of being an adorable little monster.

Sentry and Nor-Varr are among the reasons I stopped reading Marvel around 2003. The two introductory miniseries were published back-to-back in an anthology magazine of Marvel Italia and when I got my hands on it I could only go WTAF! Both characters were insane, it looked like they were built to jus...

It's funny how people keep acting like "there have been in the past" somehow makes up for "there aren't in the present". While the character clearly has a chip on his shoulder, Tony's patronizing attitude in that scene doesn't come off as any better. ("I think you're full of $#!+, but let's work to...

Out of all these... questionable attempts at characters, I think Century is the only one that could be salvageable, with a massive redesign. The idea of a character built from a massive number of mind it's actually very intriguing (and very Abnett, if I have to judge from his other sci-fi work). Des...

I didn't mind Deathcry actually. I kinda liked her budding romance with Hercules, but I thought it was really odd that Herc actually got flustered around her when she'd make a move on him. I mean it's Hercules. You know he'd hit that like the fist of a horny demigod. Well, at the time he was in mou...

X-51- Late Kirby Didn't Hit a Lotta Home Runs: Jack Kirby was one of those creators who needed a collaborator. This isn't a knock on his talents. It is just the nature being a creative soul in a commercial field. Kirby's work done alongside Joe Simon or his work done in conjunction with Stan Lee wa...

Out of all the Dark Eldar units the only one I've ever really liked are the Incubi and the Mandrakes (at least after they ditched the bondage gear of the first minis).
