[Doombringer]

Anyone else excited, or rather interested, in seeing how this pans out. I know he obviously has some sort of truce or what have you with Tony, but maybe theres more to it? Discuss what you thinks up.

Also check out the buzz cut Sentry's sporting in that team shot. t:

Someone already posted it in the CW thread. Still, it looks great and i think i know which side he chooses.

 

[Doombringer]

Bah, i didnt bother to look, and besides now that i did look like 1 person responded to it. Thought it make it stand out a lil for those who havent seen or dont bother to read that thread regularly.

 

[Sebastos]

Heh, no problem. I'm not that big of a Sentry fan but this looks good. I read his mini and i was ok. Still, i'll give this a chance.

 

[KingOfDreams]

The art looks fantastic.

 

[Sebastos]

My thoughts exactly.

 

[Tropico]

Yeah, Pasqual Ferry draws awesome space stuff!! He was awesome in DC's Adam Strange mini. His Ultimate FF has been so-so, but New Avengers looks awesome!

 

[Dread]

Ferry's art is good as usual. Of course, I've liked it since he was drawing H4H in the late 90's. Even if Marvel and even Wizard refuses to acknowledge the kick-arse ninja costume he designed for Iron Fist. Boo!

While previous prevews and whatnot seems to establish that Sentry probably joins the pro SHRA side, CW has been a godsend to NEW AVENGERS because it has allowed Bendis to focus on telling one-shot stories about a single character, which is where he is strongest, rather than a 4-6 part arc about a team of them, where he is weakest. The quality of NA has increased dramatically since CW started so I just see it as hopefully another rare good issue of that title.

I might pick this up for the Inhumans stuff.

I hated how they portrayed the Inhumans in Black Panther.

Dude, its Black Panther written by Hudlin, I hate how every character is portrayed in that comic, especially Black Panther.

My only concern, which is a very valid one, is that Bendis has a way of making everyone he writes sound like an immature, 12 year old New York pedestrian. Which works fine in USM but sometimes wacky with other, more regal or otherworldly characters. I could almost see Karnak and Gorgan talking about "Medusa's boobies" or "is the rest of her hair prehensile" for 4 pages under Bendis' pen, and that would stink. Hopefully he proves this fear untrue.

Thats where the "might" part of my post comes in.

SORRY!! I never read the title and saw the Inhumans and picked it up. I have the Jenkins/Jae Lee TPB 'cause I loved that mini (and couldn't get all of the single issues). I know there was another mini after that, but even under pressure BB wasn't like that. Everyone was acting weird and I though it was gonna turn out that Maximus was controlling them or something. BB asking for a voice box?! WTF?!?! I thought it was more CW nonsense and not that the writer was crappy.

The Inhumans havent gotten a decent story since the Jenkins/Lee stuff IMO, there was a Pacheco/Ladronn series after followed by I think 2 McKeever mini's which focused on the kids.

 

[Red]

Interesting, but doesn't the Might Avengers preview give away which side he chooses.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Dude, its Black Panther written by Hudlin, I hate how every character is portrayed in that comic, especially Black Panther.

Black Panther wasn't so bad until I realized that Hudlin had tainted the Black Knight legacy by making that psycho, uber-religious fanatic guy in armor Nathan Garrett rather than the Crusader, who's supposed to be a psycho, uber-religious fanatic. Now the Garrett period has this big blemish that makes no sense with anything else about the character.

 

[BrolyKnight]

I think the sentry picks the side of SHRA, im a wolverine fan and in his last issue the sentry shows up to kick wolvies butt which woulds sound like he picked the side of SHRA.

I guess the second mini puts them back on the moon since by the first one they were in the mountains. Or was that a flub? Anyway, their behavior in "Xorneto's Last Ride" wasn't this bad either. I guess I'll pay more attention to anything that has Hudlin in it then. To avoid it.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Heh, I'm pretty sure I read both the Pacheco/Ladronn series and the McKeever series, and I can't even remember if they ended up back on the moon in either. I vaguely recall the teens leaving from the moon to head to Earth as part of some weird Inhuman/USA public relations exchange program, but I don't know if the Ladronn series explained that or if they were just miraculously back on the moon at the beginning of the McKeever series.

Neither series was all that memorable. The McKeever one had some interesting characters, but McKeever didn't really do much more than scratch the surface with them in his 12 issues. The Ladronn series obviously had some spiffy art, but I don't remember much about the story.

Im pretty sure they were on the moon in the Pacheco one considering Ronan and the Kree's involvement.

I wonder how Sentry will be able to stand up against Blackbolt. I'd love to see BB let lose against him.

 

[Docker2.0]

Seriously, why are the Inhumans pissed at the USA for? I don't understand why they have a cold war against us and not ALL of humanity. They never clarified what's ticked them off. I could understand Atlantis being ticked off becuase of Namorita but not the Inhumans.

 

[Kitsune]

Didn't the US Government confiscate some of the Terrigin mists that Quicksilver stole?

In the SON OF M series, Gen. Lazer took some of their Terrigen Mist crystals and refused to give them back to the Inhumans, so Black Bolt declared war on 'em.

And naturally not only is Namor pissed about Namorita's death but apparently he's had "sleeper cells" of Atlantian agents roaming about for years and are only now planning an attack. The question is, is Namor aware of these agents? If so, he is directly commanding them or just letting them do their business so he can friegn ignorance later?
