Cap for a time?

 

[chris moore]

He was dead or dying when IronMan brought him into the Triskielon. Then when Thor travelled to Hel to confront Hela about Valkyrie's death, Cap appeared at his side to fight the Ogre hordes. This suggests Cap died (though why/how he went to Hel as opposed to Valhalla even if a non norse can go to a norse afterlife is a mystery). But the terms of Hela's bargain with Thor were that only one may return. Thor chose Cap to return when push came to shove)

You lost me at the Triskielon? Wasn't that SHIELD not Ulitmates who are now independent?

 

[MisterAJ]

Ironman still brought Cap there...

Guess the other hospitals had some water damage / Cod infestations...

Can't wait

 

[Mogwai]

^yeah, i really want to see where they go from there. it'll be interesting.

 

[squeekness]

What's the point? They killed off all the best guys.

 

[UraniaChang]

I'll buy it just for the cover, and use my "mentally wiping Logan off" mutant ability to satisfy me.

 

[Mogwai]

i do love mark brooks' art...has a bagley feel to it.

yeah but Oliver is doing the actual art.

 

[Mogwai]

yeah, i know.. what the hell..

 

[Venom160]

it's ******** I know. It's like marvel is knowingly driving the universe into the ground.

 

[Mogwai]

oliver's work wasn't the worst the book had seen, unfortunately.

 

[Venom160]

....yes it was. Seriously a two year old could draw better than Oliver. He made Jean look like a freakin guy.

 

[Venom160]

edit.

 

[Mogwai]

i feel that there was an artist (one or two issues) between the 'cable' and 'sentinals' arcs that was pretty bad.

 

[Havok83]

I liked Oliver's art on this book. He wasnt that bad. Paquette, who he shared drawing duties with, was defiently worse

Mogwai, I think you are thinking of Alixe, who did the Underneath arc, which featured the Morlocks. His art was very rough

 

[Mogwai]

^yup. that's who it was.

I forgot all about Ultimatum, now I have to catch up with it.

 

[Venom160]

don't bother dude. It hasn't gotten better. The only way to fix this now is to have Stan Lee so up on the last panel of #5 and snap his fingers reversing everything that Loeb has done.

Havok is your avy from Ultimate X-men? Looks like Ult Jean and Storm but its not from anything I've seen.

 

[Mogwai]

love that pic.

Ah, thanks for the advice. But don't forget that we have almighty Phoenix to fix everything.

eh if I don't think Phoenix will be the one to fix it. Remember the [BLACKOUT]Watcher-power Rick Jones[/BLACKOUT] that showed up at the end of Ult Origins.
