The Official Avengers Thread (Heroic Age Bendis/JRJR)

[Drz]

Does anyone actually still think that Bendis is a good writer?

Ultimate Spider-Man has great writing and people love it. Sure its only on top 50 on sales, but the people who read it, absolutely love it.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

I mean the art and story are TERRIBLE. How the HELL can they allow this?!

Yeah, that's US-M, that's the one good thing he did.

Man i can't wait to see the reaction when a comic book with Red Hulk will be on top 5 sales.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

I'll deny ever being into comics.

 

[runawayboulder]

It was just put on CBR about Red Hulk.

 

[venom892]

Wasn't Hulk a top 10 seller for a long time?

 

[runawayboulder]

Man i can't wait to see the reaction when a comic book with Red Hulk will be on top 5 sales.

Remember when Spawn and chromium covers were #1 in the 90's....? Another question.....do you remember what happened after???

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I got back into comics.

 

[runawayboulder]

Yeah but for a while things were not fun...

 

[Spider-Gamer]

Red Hulk joins the Avengers with issue #7

...damn...

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Think of it this way: that's $4 extra per month.

 

[Alastor]

Yeah, I'm not even giving it until issue 6. I'm done with it now. Which sucks, because I like the line-up and I like JRJr. Oh well.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Huh. That's actually a good idea. The series has been middling at its absolute best and I really don't give a s*** about the rest of this arc knowing that I'm gonna drop it after #6 anyway.

 

[Alastor]

Thinking about it, Ive never dropped a title based on news or a story/character development. I'm not particularly upset, but theres no way I will read an Avengers comic with Red Hulk/Ross in it (except if it were written by Jeff Parker, or Van Lente or Hickman...maybe..probably.) Way to go Bendis, turning me into that guy.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

I really don't even see him gelling well with the current crop of characters. I mean everyone on the roster had their ass handed to him at some point during Loeb's **** fest, so I'm sure they'll all just be completely happy when Steve's like ''Guess what team?! New Member!"

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I imagine that's part of the point. Stir the pot a bit. Of course, Rulk is kind of like doing that by sneaking some poop into the pot for added 'flavor.'

 

[Jennifer Walters]

I mean Steve's been pretty good with the whole second chances thing lately what with seemingly Taskmaster and Victoria Hand, but Red Hulk's a whole other story.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I would think Thor, at the very least, would have some serious objections, given that he and Rulk tried earnestly to kill each other at one point.

 

[kguillou]

This is too funny, Red hulk? Really Bendis? I bet loeb begged him to do it.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Seriously for all the putting Captain America, Thor, and Iron Man together, you would think that they would use the real Hulk and not Rulk.

 

[IBRAH08]

Oh man. I read #3 and I thought, "HEy this is actually getting better. The dialog isn't as painful and was overall tolerable." But now they are gunna add red hulk. why? Why you gotta do that Bendis?

 

[Alastor]

Yeah, I'm baffled. Is he THAT popular with people? And by people, I mean those over 12 years old.

 

[Drz]

Seriously for all the putting Captain America, Thor, and Iron Man together, you would think that they would use the real Hulk and not Rulk.

I wish Grey Hulk was used more. Bendis probably wants Rulk so he can have him smack talk and so forth. Oh well atleast i have my Tyrone Cash!

 

[kguillou]

Why would General Ross even want to join the team anyway?
