Re: Jab’s Builds! (Guardsman! Cobalt Man! War Machine!)

Rhodey and Carol's relationship came out of nowhere for me, I may be wrong but I don't remember any build up to it at all, no hints anywhere that they were into each other, Rhodey just sort appeared in Carol's book with both of them acting like they were in a serious relationship and had been togeth...

Re: Ms Marvel MCU tv series

It felt to me as if the writers (or at least I assume the head writer) were so concerned with telling a story about Partition, in which they then had to work out a way to include Kamala that they forgot what the show was supposed to be about and sadly it came at the expense of much of what made her ...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Bethany Cabe! The Controller! Killer Shrike! Midas!)

Sadly the 'Heroes of Iron' crossover, which would be great, couldn't happen anymore, Danny Rand isn't allowed to be IF anymore (even though unlike his replacement he actually earned it), he's no longer with Misty who has now been coupled up with Falcon. As for Tony, well as you and others have poin...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Bethany Cabe! The Controller! Killer Shrike! Midas!)

Eddie March is such a weird anomaly in the Iron Man books. An ex-boxer buddy of Happy Hogan who is the very first replacement Iron Man, but was used basically to show why Tony needed to be Iron Man. I wonder if the writing team of the time didn't want to use Eddie more, but for one reason or anothe...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Pepper Potts! Happy Hogan! Freak! Bethany Cabe!)

I'm kind of think Shrike is one of the many villains who shouldn't really be jobbers, skilled fighters with military and/or intelligence experience and super powers or super tech should be far more effective. Not that he should win or even beat most heroes but he shouldn't be a pushover and especial...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Pepper Potts! Happy Hogan! Freak! Bethany Cabe!)

Kathy Dare was honestly kind of terrifying. Not because of any power or ability, but because she was a pretty decent portrayal of a psycho ex-girlfriend turned obsessive stalker. She worked her way into Tony's life, Tony started to see signs of her jealousy, how clingy and emotionally manipulative ...

Re: Marvel and DC Heavy Hitters (Thor)

While I prefer the MCU Hulk (from The Avengers onward, I tend to ignore the Incredible Hulk movie) the scene in the Ang Lee Hulk where he's throwing about tanks in the desert is still one of the best depictions of the character I've ever seen.

Re: Marvel and DC Heavy Hitters (Silver Surfer)

While I agree that Marvel is (or was) more grounded so the characters weren't as ridiculously high in their power levels I do believe that there are a few Marvel characters that are up there alongside Superman and therefore a match for him (Thor, Hulk, Hercules, Silver Surfer, Doctor Strange etc.), ...

Re: Ms Marvel MCU tv series

It was okay, not the masterpiece that some are making it out to be. My main issue is that her fan-girling over Carol Danvers doesn't make much sense in the MCU given her lack of activity on Earth, maybe over the course of the show they'll show us that Carol was more active than we've seen.

Re: Die Grösshorn Eule

It's weird enough for us Brits when they try to write the speech of British characters so I can't begin to imagine how bad it can be when writing those that speak a completely different language. Oi wot, guv'nor? English speech is luverly and easy for Americans to mimic, pip-pip! How very dare you!

Re: Die Grösshorn Eule

DIE GRÖSSHORN EULE (Real Name Unknown, aka "Horned Owl") ... "Die Grösshorn Eule" is a literal German translation of "Great Horned Owl"... For the sake of it: it actually isn't. "Gröss" is not a real German word. There is "Gross" ("big" or...
