Yeah, which sucks because Vanguard's a cool name for the dude and the group didn't really need a name. 

What kills me every week is all anyone focuses on are the Bendis rants. I can praise BLUE BEETLE, or AVENGERS: THE INITIATIVE, or NOVA, or even to some degree IRON FIST. But no one wants to talk about it. No, all it is is, "How dare you rip into Marvel's Golden Child? Booooo!"

Let's not get into that again. The only reason Dread buys Bendis' books is because he's given enough control over the Marvel Universe for his books to be relevant across the whole line. After all, what's the point in enjoying the books you read if it means you don't know what's happening in the books you can't stand?
Nonsense. There is absolutely nothing by Marvel that you can read without following Bendis' Avengers books. Immortal Iron Fist, the X-Men line, Skaar, Spider-Girl, Eternals, Daredevil, Fantastic Four, Moon Knight. You need to read the Avengers books to get the full story of those books, right?
I mean, just because people like me haven't bought any of the Avengers books or even Secret Invasion's main title but can still follow and enjoy Incredible Herc, that doesn't mean it should be done by everyone.
You're seriously arguing semantics with me? Every single person on the Internet uses bold exaggerations to make a point or react to something, but when Dread does it, suddenly it's the abomination of mankind, right?
I mean, when someone says a story "sucks", is that true?
If it makes you feel better, I took up reading a few differant books over the past due to your praise of them. So I'm definately listening in to both sides. I want to say some were Captain America, New Warriors, Iron Fist and Thor, but I could be wrong. Now, I haven't stuck with all those, but the fact remains that I listened well enough to give them a shot (and to shell out money for a decent read for a good long while until funds couldn't allow it) and I still read New Warriors and Iron Fist. I want to say there were more as well.
No one is defending Bendis, people are just tired of your constant *****ing.
What kills me is that you continue to feed the beast, spending money on comics you hate just you'll have license to complain about them, while neglecting to pick up good comics that need to be bought by more and more people--like Incredible Hercules or the late Iron Man: Director of Shield. And if Herc gets canceled because of sales, I'll hold you personally responsible.![]()
It's figuratively true, but not literally true, which is why we have two different words to differentiate those states. AND YOU'RE KILLING THEM. DREAD, WHY ARE YOU KILLING WORDS?
Manic is rebutting your opinion fair enough. I don't need to. I'd love to live in your comic world where the things that Bendis does on his Avenger titles are irrelevant to the rest of the MU, but sadly I live in this one, where they are supposed to be.
I don't read either, and am not in the mood to buy trades of either to catch up.

Play a new tune blader.
False. People defend that no-talent prick all the time.

It just seems like you are reaching for a nit-pick, figuratively speaking. I'm sure I could wait around until you made some sort of word error and pounce on you like a scavenger to a festering carcass (figuratively speaking), but that just seems petty.
I mean, hey, I'd love to talk about NOVA or AVENGERS INITIATIVE or whatever, but, no, gang, let's ***** about *****ing and complain about exaggerations. Sheesh. Because that is what I like coming to SHH for; getting a pop quiz on Creative Writing 101.![]()
potty mouthed middle ages housewife.
People just need to realize that the correct response to most *****ey jibes in the internet is "Yeah, I totally give a ****, honest," and not "OH GOD I'M SO ********* WHY IS IT THAT YOU [continue with mile-long epic description of the butt-hurting in minute detail]."
Now just watch as someone responds to this jibe with the latter.
Actually, Manic is agreeing with me.
Seriously dude, I was just ********ting at you.
EDIT: Also if I were really reaching for nits to pick I would never have passed up
But I did, cause that's the kind of class act I am.
