Okay, you guys are gonna love this...

Last night I dreamt I was surfing some political blog I go to (I won't say which in case it goes against any of my fellow Reilly lovers) and there was a very out of place article called 'Spider-Ben'. Curious I read it and it was crazy... it talked about how there were plans to bring back Ben Reilly for real in PAD's book a few months ago, but they were nixed at the very last minute by editorial edict (and instead Pete just used Reilly's ID as a compromise, which did really happen). What's even more insane, is that apparently this editorial reversal was so last minute there were even pages that were penciled, inked, colored and in some cases scripted and lettered (although not all). The article contained a link to these pages so I clicked it and the story I got was that it took place just after Pete went anti-reg, but before Cap died. He's in the underground Avengers bunker and Cap says he has a surprise and turns on a giant TV monitor and there's a blonde man who looks like Peter in a SHIELD-esque outfit. Apparently Ben Reilly had been working as a covert agent for the anti-reg side behind the scenes for months and was sorta like the Winter Soldier except still good... less morally ambigious and not brain-washed at all. Of course Pete was shocked. That was about it for the pages. Ofcourse I'm pissed this was reversed by the editors, but it was still cool to see. Then in the dream it gets really strange. I'm typing about this with a header like "OMFG Reilly was supposed to come back!" or something on these very forums and a gruff man suddenly spills milk all over my laptop and short-circuits it! I look up and it's Norman Osborn! He's holding out a mirror with coke on it and asks me if I want any and I rebuff him and say "Sorry, I'm not a junkie." I then grab a 40 ouncer and start pouring it over Norman's head and telling him this is for my "homies" Ben Reilly and Harry Osborn. And that's when my alarm went off. Like I said the dream sorta made sense until Norman spilled milk on my computer. Then it went surreal. Oh well. Still the coolest dream I've had in ages.

Anyone else have any Reilly dreams?

it was going so well until norman popped out lol but u know if reily came back like that i wouldnt mind at all. liek sheild were watching the battle and took reilys body away, then replaced it with the ashes. and they took reily as a sort of spidey back up or sumfin. but yeh cool dream lol

Devil's Due has a direct link to my Xombie review on their main page. If you didn't read it the first time, now's your chance. Just head on over to their website and scroll down to the 215ink link.

 

[crivelliman]

Does anyone have access to perhaps a complete checklist of the entire Clone Saga? I'm sure we've got one, I just can't seem to find it.

 

[uchiha_itachi]

^ i kno theres one but i lost it sumwer... a reading order wuld be nice to lol

 

[WOLVERINE25TH]

Um, page one? First post?

 

[crivelliman]

Um, page one? First post?

Right on, thanks! I honestly just didn't check, since I imagined it would have been deep within the pages of the thread.

 

[WOLVERINE25TH]

Hell no! That there's vital info! It gets first postings.

 

[Rez]

Kickass dream, and why is this thread not on the first page! DAMN YOU SPIDERMAN 3 FOR TAKING AWAY OUR POSTERS!

 

[uchiha_itachi]

LOL well you cant blame it. theres not alot or reilly news anyway...

 

[spidey-dude]

I heard a rumour that kaine might be popping up in thunderbolts....cant rememebr where I heaqrd it or if I dreamt it or what now....

 

[uchiha_itachi]

lol! lets hope its real

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

If Kaine's popping up in Thunderbolts that's not good. It means he's cannon-fodder.

 

[spidey-dude]

maybe he is going after osbourne isstead of them after him????

 

[spidey-dude]

what......?

 

[freemadison]

i'd love to see him go after osborn after tearing through the thunderbolts first. now that would be a comeback!

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

Being familiar with Ellis's Thunderbolts, the only reason Kaine would appear is if they were setting him up to be maimed/killed or otherwise humiliated. Sorry, folks.

Having said that, I'm highly dubious he's appearing in it. When it comes to clones and loose threads from the clone-saga, I'll believe it when I see it.

THIS IS A SUPER IMPORTANT POST!!!
WITH MAJOR SPOILERS FOR SPIDERMAN 3!

I just got back from seeing Spiderman 3 for the first time(I know, not very fan like of me), and throughout nearly the entire movie I got a HUGE HUGE HUGE Ben Reilly vibe from Harry.

Anyone else!? HELLO! Nearly his entire storyline was the Clone Saga! They even had Peter slap MJ for craps sake!

I was SO HAPPY during the team up vs Sandman and venom. These two men, best friends, brothers, fighting together.. and then what happens... he jumps in front of him to save him from being IMPALED BY A GLIDER!!!

I **** a brick. This whole ****ing movie was the clone saga on screen. I'm in heaven, the thing I never thought I'd see was brought to the screen tonight.

 

[spidey-dude]

awesome...Although you kinda just ruined the film for me......

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

Oh man... I seriously didn't like SM3 (hate is too strong a word), but I'm not gonna go there in this thread. I will say out of all the connotations one might want with the clone-saga, you pick up on Pete slapping MJ...? Um... I like the clone-saga, but even I cringe at the thought of that scene.
