Bought/Thought January 3rd, 2007...

Miriam SHarpe is a wild card, but I dont think shes a skrull or anything like that. Could be shes a plant by some big corporation manipulating Stark.

Possibly. Roxxon? They haven't done much since Bagley was on THUNDERBOLTS.

It would have to be someone who would benefit from all of this, the SHRA I mean. I know it can't be cheap constructing new bases and such...

The problem is that FRONTLINE's A story is doing this, claiming some financial reason for CW, and the problem is that Guggenhiem and WOLVERINE already did this story, albeit it in a bit of a cruder, WWE esque way, because it's WOLVERINE, not high art. People read WOLVERINE to see him cut stuff. So it feels like a rehash of that "evil new CEO of DAMAGE CONTROL" sort of story.

Roxxon's been a naughty biz for years at Marvel. And Stark's company has had people mess with it befoe, that was when he started drinking.

But the Frontline story is about a direct connection to Tony Stark.

True. I guess I'm just desperate for Tony Stark to not seem like a greedy, fascist *****ebag in some in-continuity stories.

But hasnt he always been a greedy, fascist *****ebag. Think about it.

 

[Dread]

But hasnt he always been a greedy, fascist *****ebag. Think about it.

He's usually been loyal and a little honorable. The instances of him steamrolling over friend and foe alike for what he wants were the exception. Now he does it almost weekly. There is a difference.

And you'd be surprised, or not, to see that conservatives can abandon plenty of free market principles when they're in office.

Or not.

I can care less about ads. I don't care if there is twice as many ads as there are comic pages, no biggie. I just can't stand pullout ads, 3D-glasses, cards, crap like that. It's annoying.

And that is all I was saying. Thanks for agreeing.

 

[PWN3R]

I have no clue how I confused "study" with "stand". Wow.

 

[Dread]

It's only a typo. I understood.

 

[Darthphere]

Yeah, you've said about 25 times by now in long ass posts, we got the point.

 

[Brainiac 8]

It's Mr. Sinister.

 

[Doc Destruction]

Yes, because no one around here EVER repeats the same point a million times.

 

[Darthphere]

Yes, because no one around here EVER repeats the same point a million times.

Yeah but at least they have the decency to keep it to 2 sentences max.

 

[Doc Destruction]

Bah, I appreciate Dread's long posts.

 

[Darthphere]

Bah, I appreciate Dread's long posts.

So do I, when they talk about something new. Sometimes the ad thing is thrown in there when it isnt even releveant to the review he's making.

"Oh Blue Beetle was awesome, it had a great plot and nice art, and it didn;t have 25 ads"


Um ok?

 

[Doc Destruction]

Well, maybe that's his real problem with books these days. I know the mini-comic in a comic is enough to make me claw my eyes out sometimes.

Consumer puppet!

I play it in my Honda Civic while drinking milk, and listening to my new boombox.

Dread has a friend.

Hulk #102 - Alot of the buildup Pak has placed in his run all payed off in this issue.Hulk takes it to the Red King hard and it's more than just a fist fight,it's payback for all of the friends he's made.King Hulk sounds so cool and I'm glad he's going to hopefully have a queen at this side.

Civil War #6 - I feel like I can't judge this without reading the final issue.Great setup with the namedropping of all these new superteams all over the US.I hope Punisher makes an appearance in CW #7 or at least redeems himself in the eyes of Cap,or else his appearance in the book has been a complete waste.

I can tell you right now, thats exactly what it was. Just a way too boost sales on his new book.
