Or the lack thereof....

We've seen three seperate views of the same fight that have NOTHING to do with one another as near as I can tell in Civil War. It's really kinda weird to be honest.

And then there's glaringly bizarre stuff like Black Widow II is a retired semi-prostitute living in Cuba then she's a SHIELD agent then she's a HYDRA agent and then she's dead (what a waste)
 
I'm pretty sure the Black Widow minis have been stated to be out of contuinity.
 
That would explain a lot but not much passes for continuity as is.
 
Willwohugger only makes thread about things that bug him.
 
If Marvel bugs you so much, why read it?:confused:
 
yeah willow...go get laid, come back, and post happy thoughts

Welcome to my world when I turn off the suspend belief / ignore laws of physics & conventional mores of society.

Open Laughter how Marvel no longer keeps to a timeline.

It is documented that Sex relieves stress,.... It's the next best thing to comfort food. I dare say that if more people spent time getting it,... the planet would be a better place,.... A little crowded,... but a better place.


Peace.
 
I'm getting a little tired of following the CW Wolverine stuff and then seeing Wolverine pop up in other CW comics (even Wakanda!)

Espeshially if he has children!!!! :thing:
 
As long as you remember that everything isn't happening at the same time, continuity is easy. I mean, think about it. The events in Wolverine's book are either happening before the wedding, or after. (Mostly likely after.)

The battle in CW #3 happened a couple of days before what went down in the recent issues of ASM and FF. It's pretty simple to grasp.
 
I think they're talking about the other continuity issues. Not just self contained to Civil War and the here and now.

I actually think the CW #3 battle took place afterwards, cause wouldnt
thor
be around during ASM/F4 if they took place after CW #3?

That was my understanding as well:confused:
 
My understanding is Thor simply wasn't there. (though if I was Stark I woulda definatly used him to gaurd the trucks.) The fight in ASM and FF was definatly after CW3, and I say this mainly because they said it was in ASM.

Yup.
 
laughing how the last 4 posts underline the problem.

There was a time when Marvel kept track and TOLD UOU what time it is.


LOL/
 
This is a perfect situation for Editor's notes. If they had any balls, they use them again. I loved seeing them. Most of the time, they made me go and read the book they referenced.
 
She-Hulk had them last issue, I guess Tom Breevort is above that (though ive seen him use it like twice before)
 
civil war is making a lot of sense and its well structured IMO. ASM 534 suffered from marvels continuity problem, mind (tony's known about petes spider-sense like forever), but no matter i think its done quite well.
 
I kind of assumed what's happening in Wolverine took place before Wakanda or CW 3, since he initially met up with Nitro, what, 2 months ago? And if that's the case, having him show up without mentioning anything about what he did makes it seem like he didn't do anything special. It compromises the story.

And that also means that both Thor and Namor have now entered the storyline, yet nobody has mentioned either.

:up:

all that "but there's the internet" is a loada crap. bring back editors notes. and if I'M agreeing with YOU we must be right. It's officially the law now.
 
Even though Tony has known about his spider-sense, it's not like any writers have been USING it or anything. Otherwise, Peter would have never put that suit on in the first place.

Yes, my joke threads that get blasted and my "Should I buy..." only to get crazy answers and insults have resulted in my being permanently unable to post anything but criticism.

It's a condition that is known as Faboyism.

:-p
