Misty Knight, Colleen Wing remake?

Did they take down the Rhino? sheesh, between him and the wrecking crew, I don't know who gets their asses handed to them more as a means of showing how tough a hero is

 

I like this new version of Misty and Coleen, sexy,strong,sassy and up to date.

 

I liked it...except for the Rhino takedown. As far Razorfist...I thought he was dead so maybe this is a different guy.

 

If not for the impressive debut of Ares, this would have been an even hotter book. Plus, there was so many outstanding Marvel titles from last week that this book could get lost in the shuffle. What I loved was the depictions of Misty and Colleen. I know it's very male of me, but just look at the way the breasts are drawn in this book. The women actually have nipples! And, Misty's have a little sag to them, while Colleen is drawn small and perky. Plus, they have the main villianess with an obvious boob-job. Also, the dialogue was real sharp. When you top that off with the action that's included, this is a book that I'm dying to get the second issue.

It's funny how just a few years ago, a Marvel miniseries generally wasn't going to be that good. Most of them were more like Sgt. Fury's Howling Commandos. Also, they were quickly forgettable. If the mini involved a solo X-Man story, it would in no way have any change to the character or really be worth a person's time to read. Now, the miniseries are really getting very good...plus, they are tending to have a little more relevance to the Marvel 616. (Drax's recent mini will link into Marvel's big galactic adventure coming in a couple months. Rogue's last had a big change to her powers and the fate of Sunfire.) Heck, the miniseries are sometimes better than the regular book that the characters appear in. (Loki's mini and Thor's recent book, Blood Oath, can be considered far superior than anything we've read in Thor.)

 

i'd like to see this too

 

Ya know, Phaed, that's th' second time I've heard that kinda comment. Strange.

 

I'm really enjoying all the obscure villains...though I have no idea who the chick with the sword is at the end of issue #3.

 

just goes to show there are no stupid characters...just writers with no imagination

 

Sweeeeeet.

 

I have been flipping thru it at my LCS and I have decided I will pick up the trade it seems like a fun high energy read

 

I Love Itttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!!

 

At first the obvious emphasis on T&A made me think that this was going to be a pretty shallow book. I like it, although I still think it's focus is on the visual (read T&A for the hormonally hyperactive teens), the action and pathos in the recent issues has been good. If this were a manga or anime I would say that it's loaded with fan service, but that isn't always bad. I'm a sucker for action and martial arts so I'm hooked.

Varient, in one of the Joe Friday's at Newsarama I saw a group shot of what is supposedly Heroes for Hire. Misty and Colleen kept their current look. I also saw the Roach guy (I forget his name) and, of all people, Shang Chi; no Iron Fist. I'll see if I can find the image again.

 

Series editor Mark Paniccia was tight-lipped for now in regards to details as to exactly how this series will spin-out of the summer event, though he did tell Newsarama, “This book will give us a street level look at the world of Civil War, a place where you’re just as likely to get stabbed in the heart when getting stabbed in the back. There will be lots of action but it’s poignant as well. It’s dark and gritty but will have an edgy sense of humor that you’re not going to get anywhere else.”

Oh yeah ….he also revealed the series line-up for the first time, as seen on this sephia toned promo version of the cover to issue #1. Click on the image to see a larger version...

 

Heh. Heh. I guess the new artist couldn't drew Misty's braided bangs. Looks like she's got half a perm and half a fro.
