Marvel Solicitations For September 2008

[Sugarculted]

You haven't read much from Way, have you?

Oy vey. He's the main reason the first issue will be getting a download. Damn it Marvel, think of the DP fans. Why give us Way, and an average artist for the first issue. Why?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I'd have been content with Medina if the writer were better. Medina's cartoony style is light and fun, which suits a Deadpool comic well.

 

[Hans]

Just so we're clear: it's perfectly okay for Doc Destruction to reply to a post of mine that had nothing to do with him and insult me over it, but when I call him on it, I'm the "assjockey"?

Oh, not at all. I wasn't referencing any one thing; just the overall tone and subject matter of your posts and opinions as a whole.

 

[Red]

Dread, do you know what the definition of insanity is?

Dude, just give it a rest.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

All right, now everyone just seems to be ganging up on Blader. Let's get back on topic, people.

I wonder if the myth about Hercules raping Hippolyta will come into play in Incredible Herc, what with the Amazons showing up. Maybe they're going to try and warn Namora about what a dick Herc really is. That'd be funny.

I don't think that's how it went down in Marvel Myth -- indeed, her motivation for becoming a villain was that Herc wouldn't settle down with her.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Oh, I wasn't aware Marvel had covered that event. Maybe the Amazons are pissed he never settled down with her, then.

 

[Darthphere]

Well Blader did kind of make himself the topic.

It's been said in an interview (with Pak I think) that this herc did not rape her and they wouldn't delve into that. I'm sure they'll have something else happen.

 

[BrianWilly]

I don't think Marvel Herc ever did rape Hippolyta, Pak or not. He merely "had the pleasure."

 

[GNR]

is anyone reading x-force?worth picking up?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Had the pleasure of her acquaintance as they sat and politely talked about matters of state all night, you mean?

 

[Hans]

is anyone reading x-force?worth picking up?

I am. I like it a lot, actually. If you're a continuity fan, X-Force'll give you a *****. The story is fast paced and exciting, the characterization is strong and the art is great. Pick it up.

 

[Doc Destruction]

I love it also. Bastion, Magus and now Archangel - I'm sold.

 

[Darthphere]

X-Force is straight up the most entertaining comic in the Marvel line right now. Read carefully at what I just wrote.

 

[Doc Destruction]

Is that a ***** reference?

 

[Darthphere]

Is that a ***** reference?

No. I just don't want people to come in here with their lame arguments of "Captain America is a better comic!" when that's not what I said at all.

 

[Doc Destruction]

Ahhh I see now.

And I agree with you.

 

[Darthphere]

I just love the fact that I can read a real good, awesomely written comic like Captain America and then follow it up with balls to the wall, bloody, gore infested comic like X-Force. It makes me smile.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Is the Archangel in X-Force a clone or something?

 

[Red]

No. No he's not.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

So what is he? Angel's still all over other X-Men comics with his feather wings.

 

[Darthphere]

So what is he? Angel's still all over other X-Men comics with his feather wings.

Archangel?

Wolverine is in 8 different comics with 7 different costumes, this is the X-Men we're talking about Corp, come on now.

 

[Doc Destruction]

No I'm pretty sure Archangel is coming back full tilt. God, at least I hope so.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, but Wolverine's powers are still the same across the board. How'd Angel get his metallic wings back? Are they, like, casings over his real wings now or something?
