Comics The New Avengers Thread

To a point that's true, but now he's gone over the top. Now he's leader of the avengers and telling Iron Man there's no way he can be hurt. Luke is a street level badass, having him get too much play and moments just takes away from the character after a point. If you know luke's gonna win every time, he kinda stops being so heroic ya know?

There definitely needs to be a line drawn for Bendis' Luke Cage

Thats true but in all fairness well...he does have unbreakable skin. A guy like that is pretty hard to damage.

 

[moraldeficiency]

nah, give me a bucket of bleach and I could take him down. He still breaths and he can still burn. He makes a good tank but he's hardly someone that could stare down Iron Man or such, for him to be there just feels like bendis fanwanking hard.

If anyone should officially be leading the team, its Clint. They may have Steve Roger's choice for the new Cap on the team, and they may be crashing at his place. But Bucky just isn't used to leading a unit or working on team strategies. He can do solo fine, and works well with a team, but he doesn't have enough experience leading one.
Clint on the other hand has lead Avengers West Coast and the Thunderbolts. Make Luke the battering ram sure, but don't make him out like his word is what the rest of the team hangs on or that he can shrug off everything shy of a blow from Mjolnir. He should be able to take anything Ironman can, blunt force trauma-wise. But Colossus he aint.

I personally think Luke Cage is one of Bendis' best accomplishments. He used to be sucha joke and Bendis was able to revamp him and turn him into a badass A lister.

Agreed.

I could care less about Luke Cage back in the day. Now, he's moved up to one of my favorite current day comic characters. I be on board for a series starring Luke and Jessica for sure, if Bendis were writing it.

If Bendis were to do a Luke Cage/Jessica Jones series with Gaydos on art, i would cream myself several times.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

I actually thinkg that's a better idea than them on the Avengers.

There's supposedly another Alias book in the works...a mini series, iirc.

I have the first Volume for Alias. Keep forgetting to read it. I've heard a ton of good things about the series.
