    I didn't see the issue preview for the July issues, which shocked me considering I liked the series. Does anyone know for sure?

    Personally,I think it's the end of the line.I've been reading the book since #2 and it's been great.I just don't see a book in the #120s making its way back up the charts without replacing the creative team or the name/tone of the book in general.

    I'm hoping we'll see a relaunch. It worked for She-Hulk

    I'm hopinh we can get Slott on a better book.

    Slott on Damage Control.

    I know he wants too. he keeps sliding them into She hulk and The Thing.

    I thought of another Team Book this morning that Slott would Rule on but I forgot.

    I like Slott on Thing, he's great on it. But if I had to choose another book for him, it would probably be a Hawkeye or Luke Cage ongoing. [​IMG]

    Exiles. That's what it was. I think Dan Slott would Rule on Exiles. He could have his dream team without messing with Continiuity. Hawkeye, Two Gun, squirrel Girl and Destroyer.

    With his love of contiunuity he could really bring the book back to what Winnick had it at in the beginning. Instead of plain messed up worlds we could see worlds that were like 616 until a certain point. Plus it used to have the nice comedy/action that Slott puts in all his books.

    Imagine a world where Squirrel Girl is the undisputed greatest hero in the world.....or where she rules with an iron fist.......I would love it.

    Doggone it Slott.....you should put together a pitch for Joey Q. Then you could finally do your Turner D Century Story.

    I would personally choose Bendis for a Hawkeye ongoing. A lot of people had complained about Bendis killing him and hating him. Then you actually see Bendis writing him during the HoM stuff and everyone's goin', "damn, Hawkeye is cool as hell!" Which is way better than before he died when he was boring as hell.

    I just stopped buying it. Thing was great, it's just kind of forgetable unfortunately. Its not a big deal in comparison to the rest of the storylines and it falls through the cracks.
