Why would Samson hate everybody so much as Rulk, though? He's always been a decent guy.

Have you ever read anything written by Loeb?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Oh, right. "Reasons." Who needs 'em?

 

[Red Mask]

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.

He's obviously not ready to be Sorcerer Supreme. Also Marvel's views on the unholy are still black and white. It doesn't have the open-mindedness of other supernatural fiction.

Anyway, for Bendis' latest story I have to give him respect for it. With all the ****e Marvel's gone through I wouldn't count on any American mystic, except for some of the female heroines.

Let's all root for our Haitian brother!

Holla at your boy!! Woof! Woof Woof ( does Arsenio Hall dogpound effect).
i still think my boy needs to update that fit and get some boots though like he did in this mini!

or maybe get that cool pimped out Baron Samedi white suit from James Bond's "live and let die" with the top hat. brother man really needs some shoes though. you dont know what you might step on with bare feet these days..

 

[Greg]

Well, I'm excited for the new Supreme!!! t:

 

[Anubis]

I've always loved the look voodoo guys had with the painted skull face and the top hat. That's just all kinds of cool.

Doc has NOT always been a decent guy. Look at his motivation to become the green haired shrink.

IMPO the guy was written with issues of inadequacy and jelousy,.. many could say that he failed as a superhero,.. and he would have a mild issue with too many marvel heroes that would be burning rage in a hulk form.

Consider how he treated the women who took him down? you realize after the fact that he let them out of open curiosity as to what they wanted. he had no personal beef with them.

I'm still waiting for his revenge on Osborn for that business on Obama's plane

 

[StreetWarrior]

So, just bought New Avengers #53. I didn't read any spoilers, so I got to find out that [BLACKOUT]Brother Voodoo[/BLACKOUT] is the New Sorcerer Supreme on my own. Yeah... I'm really not feeling this choice. Can't Strange just keep the title. Please?

Also, Damien was written like a teenage girl on an episode of Maury. Did anyone else notice how similar his dialogue/voice was too Bendis' Spider-man. Just add "hell" to every line of Spider-man dialogue and they'd sound exactly the same. Does Bendis even try anymore?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Who's Damien?

 

[Anubis]

Hellstrom aka son of Satan

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Oh, so Daimon, then. Because his name's Daimon. I thought Batman's obnoxious kid had managed to make his way over to the Marvel universe somehow.

But Samson spents like years trying to help Banner/Hulk, even though he always got his ass handed to him on some level. He's also helped many other hereos with ther mental issues.

 

[Greg]

Can anyone post a scan of the awesome last page?

 

[BLACKVULCAN]

my 2 cents
i thought Hellstrom was freaking awesome in it.Telling the demon possessing the hood to show himself and did he know who he was 8&^%$# with. I am the *&^%$# son of Satan *&^%$#!!! and the whole oh "stop using some possessed jerk wad to do your dirty work or will exercise your butt the hell outta here. That was cool. it was kinda strange to see Luke going from taking on "the freaking goldbug" to a servant of Dormannu though,since that was never his bag, but hey i will take luke even if he ends up in space now.hehe

 

[moraldeficiency]

Unless Helstrom is the actual son of satan, then dormammu is his grandfather basically as dormammu created those demons he got his essence from.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Hellstorm probably is the son of Satan at this point, since Satan's finally been allowed to be a character in Marvel's universe. Granted, Ghost Rider just kicked his ass a little while ago, so he's nothing special anyway.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Satannish is referred to as Daimon's father sometimes too. There needs to be a serious demon spring cleaning done soon

Was that thing the NAs were fighting Dormammu or just the Hood juiced up?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Probably the latter. I don't see the New Avengers surviving against Dormammu at his full power for too long.

 

[BLACKVULCAN]

so at thanksgiving.Who do they give thanks to for such a wonderful meal. i mean do they give thanks to Mephisto or Dormammu or just Satan?? hehe

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Probably the latter. I don't see the New Avengers surviving against Dormammu at his full power for too long.

That's what I thought. Cage jumped up and grabbed his horns and I was like "wtf?"

It's really up in the air. Some have him being the real satan's son, some have him being the son of satanish (who was created by dormammu, which would make dormammu SoS grandfather) and some have said multiple hell lords in that plane (satanish, mephisto, etc) created hellstron.

That was the hood juiced up, Dormammu would have basically devoured the earth on his way to consuming all of existence.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

The people at the Appendix to the Marvel Handbook website seem to be convinced that he's the son of Marduk Kurios, based on their encyclopedic knowledge of Hellstorm's backstory: http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix/mardukkurios.htm

Jesus! That's not one happy houngan. Looks more like Rob Liefield's Chapel! At least give the brother some hair!
