Official New Avengers Discussion Thread!

Still doesn't make a difference. But no decent person would be proud the son of Satan is a fellow citizen.

The Son of Satan's pretty cool, actually. I'm proud that a guy who resists his demonic heritage and (mostly) tries to be a hero lives in the same country I do.

 

[mre]

Yeah but she's Canadian, so who cares?

Canada IS the superior country.

 

[Alex Summers]

I bet the new Sorcerer Supreme is the Scarlet Witch. This is going to be extremely stupid.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

The likeliest candidate based on recent NA comics would seem to be Wiccan. Given that Mighty Avengers is catapulting Stature and Vision to the big leagues by placing them on a bona fide Avengers team, Wiccan could get a similar bump by becoming the new Sorcerer Supreme. I'd actually like to see that. It'd be interesting to have a less experienced, more fallible Sorcerer Supreme who's not quite prepared for the enormity of the title and its implications. And then Strange could stick around as his mentor.

I would read an ongoing on that concept.

First off, Canada rocks. Just had to say that. We are the greatest country ever. It's science.

Second, there's a really funny thing I'd like to tell you guys about, but I can't. But you'll get it on Wednesday.


Third, I'll put a vague hint here in a spoiler, in case somebody doesn't want a hint at all. It'll be vague because I don't know how to get more specific without giving it away:

Spoiler

He/she has appeared in the New Avengers before (and not just in like a flash of a picture or whatever). Won't say how far back it may have been.

I thought Doctor Druid was dead?

That might be kinda cool. Unfortanately, Bendis is writing so you can guarantee it'll be bad.

Actually, the new SS will probably be Luke Cage or Echo.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, yeah, I would hope someone other than Bendis could write it...

 

[Anubis]

Canada IS the superior country.

While that may be true, virtual utopia is boring and therefore, lame. You guys could use some more guns and ignorance.

 

[Dread]

Well, yeah, I would hope someone other than Bendis could write it...

Isn't that true of so many things?

"Wow, that could be such a great idea. Too bad Bendis is writing it."

Execution, my friends, is everything.

oh,.... that was harsh.

I can't even picture it it's so out there,..

well,.. i could,... but it wouldn't be pretty.

LOL

I did not see a reply like this coming

 

[random_havoc]

Okay, the comic comes out tomorrow, so what could it really hurt if I just say who the new Sorcerer supreme is just one day in advance, right?

Beware, MAJOR SPOILAGE!

Spoiler

Okay, so at the end of tomorrow's NA issue, it's revealed that the new person wearing the eye of agamotto is... Brudda Voodoo! Which is really funny when you see on last page a couple people mention him but then immediately say it won't be him.

I'm not thrilled with the idea, especially since he admitted to being magically inferior to Strange not too long ago when the avengers were invisible in strange's house and Voodoo couldn't detect them for Stark. But I am curious as to see what's done with it from here.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Wow.

Cool!
i at least hope that[BLACKOUT] he gets some boots and stop walking around in barefeet come on brother man its 2009! hehe[/BLACKOUT]

 

[Anubis]

Sweeeeet.

 

[moraldeficiency]

Ok, this sucks, we have a serious problem that needs to be addressed cause in a moment if this keeps going where it is we're looking at a bunch of people (and I'm not gonna name name's) getting banned at the very least:

Spoiler

When the **** did it become ok to like canada?!? Celine Dion, Bryan Adams, those annoying ****ers nickelback....Do I have to go on with the atrocities my people have suffered at the hands of those damned syrup drinkers? I'm not saying each nickelback cd is as bad as the holocaust but having to listen to one is at least equal to a lynching. So to reiterate, kids it's not cool to like canadians, they've been ****ting bad music down on this country for years now and when the revolution comes they will NOT be spared.

Now I hope with that we can all put the ugliness behind us.

That's...odd.

Why did they go for the

Spoiler

weird, obscure option when they have a character with way more storytelling potential - Wiccan - available and primed for the role?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

'Cause Bendis likes him.

 

[Watchman]

Spoiler

Well, at least its not the Hood or Spider-Woman

 

[The Mighty Thor]

'Cause Bendis likes him.

Sorry, I completely forgot Bendis was writing and started looking for logic for a second there.

Well, they did give us Shatner.....and 17% of pornstars in the industry. So I guess they're good for something.

I forgot about shatner. Yeah, shatner can stay here, he'll be spared. 17% that's the damn problem right there, too many canadians not enough hot latina spinners.

Could've been cool if it were [blackout]the Hood[/blackout].
