Comics Civil War #5 cover. *SPOILERS*

Even though he's my favorite. I want to see him get the living **** kicked out of him.
To be honest, the 1st thing I thought when I saw that cover too, was "Yes! I hope they beat the crap outta him now!"
 
Cool cover but since when is what's on the cover actually what's inside the issue? We've all seen numerous covers that are just for "shock" value and don't really tell you what's going on inside.

The question nobody is asking is, who's holding the gun?

I wonder if it's Paladin, who shot Matt Murdock a while back.

Oh, and forgive my short memory, but when did Norman get out of jail?

Marvel Knights, after Ock was pulled from the river, "they couldn't find him", AKA, Miller left it for a plot device later on. Only reason I remember off the top of my head is I bought the whole trilogy for the pretty Dodson art. :) If he was thrown back in at any other time, then I'm sorry for the wrong info. Haven't been keeping up except the occassional comic-store read. :O

I hope it's the punisher, it'd be cool for him to return killing off one of those characters, probably venom, which would make way for the return of eddie brock.

I really wish that was JMS in Peter's place.

Hehehe....the thing is, if he were in that suit, his big-ass would start to free fall, and when he asked "what do I do, what do I do", every Spidey fan would say, in unison:"Glide, you tubby, b****!"

Then, when he tried to spread his webwings and fly, we'd laugh as he plummetted to his eminent demise.

Wow, I'm dark, huh?

Why does Venom look like a hybrid of Spawn/Violator and Venom 2099? Is that supposed to be Eddie Brock?

The Scorpion has the symbiote these days
 
Interesting. I thought in some new solicitation or something that Eddie Brock and the symbiote were returning.

Hammerhead, maybe?



Perhaps this is when Peter decides that his new suit is only holding him back. Y'know, it's kinda like training wheels on a bike. Yeah, when you can't bike without them, they're nice. But if you can already ride without them, they're just f***ing annoying to deal with.
 
I had just assumed the guy with the guy was from SHEILD.
 
ehh, to me the gun looks a little more mafia-esque and less SHIELD-standard.
 
Venom AND Bullseye!??? Well, anyway Bullseye!?? Yes!!!
I have mixed emotions over Civil War so far, I'm trying reeeeeeeeal hard to stick with these events. I can only hope the action and/or story in this ish will be good.
 
Well, hell, it IS written by the same guy who did parts 1 and 2! The action in those were fantastic!
 
i'm loving civil war so far, and i love mcniven...but bullseye? it just seems weird, that he'd be among venom and the goblin as spider-foes. i'm sure it has everything to do with the story inside, but still...bullseye?
 
Insane Thought of the Moment:

I've heard people guess that the new Daredevil is none other than Bullseye...if so, he IS on the opposing side as Spidey in this story...maybe this is why he's included? I, too, thought his appearance in the picture is a little strange.

there's no way in hell the new daredevil's bullseye. he's been in prison while the new one's out running loose. i'm telling you, it's either hawkeye or fury.
 
I have no guesses myself, as I don't read DD, and am not up to snuff on what's going on. I'm just mentioning who I've heard being mentioned as a possibility.

someone did a pretty convincing arguement for ned leeds.

and why aren't you reading daredevil? :down
 
Don't like to take money away from my Spidey-book fund.

Although I DID just read every issue so far of YA yesterday, and am pretty sure that'll be added to my pull list. Very good series so far!

you know, if you think about it, this doesnt make sense...Norman and Venom both already knew his secret identity...and Bullseye...well, whey the f**k would he care? has he even fought spider-man before? I like the art, but you know, they should have had like, Doc Ock and Electro or something, 2 guys who didnt know his identity...

I don't know how many times this has to be said, but here we go again.

Knowing his identity was Gobby and Venoms only leverage against Peter, now that everyone knows, there's no need to waste time.

Some enemies are going to be plotting, kind of in shock about this, and even regular goons want in on the action

I think the gun is more about symbolism, that even the average crook is after him. Also, Norman could easily hire plenty of nutcases with guns
 
Why on Earth is he still wearing the damn mask?!?

If Marvel want spidey's ID revealed to he world, why bother keeping the mask, its not like it'll make the character or story...or mythos for that matter any worse than it is, with this ******ed bombshell. Seriously, what is he protecting his face from, coz he sure aint trying to conceal his ID...:o

This sort of thing has been done to death but on a much smaller scale of course. Its something I cant get excited about. As for venom's leverage, he doesn't care about it as much as Osborn did and the revealing of spidey's ID makes osborn alot easier to deal with imo...thats the only half-decent thing to come out of this. Tango with osborn and lay the git to rest.
