Last Hero Standing #2 (of 5)
http://www.buzzscope.com/reviews.php?id=4290

This is a poorly done cover.

First off May being in the foreground and Cap farther to the back throws the perspective off so that it looks like May has a gigantic head and huge breasts.

Second, her hand is going straight for Caps crotch. Either shes become very forward latley of someone didn't pay attention the the placement.

I will give a little bit of props though, because it does appear as if May's breast has some droop to it. It's all to easy for artist to portray a girls breasts as just big round lumps and not give them the shape of real ones.

And not, I'm not obsessed with her breasts, it's just that it's prominiently displayed in the middle of the page.

The only thing that really concerns me about that cover is that Thunderstike 2 doesn't have a big "X" over his face.

All right, JMS just redeemed himself on that last page alone. **** "Sins Past," Aunt May berating Wolverine and forcing him to go get donuts kicks ass.

I think I may start picking up ASM again. While Sins Past left an awful taste in my brain, this storyline seems to be going fairly well.

Darn you, euroq. I just got this in the mail today and was going to spoiler everyone. That scene alone was worth the $2.25 cover price! Another nice thing was that the

Spoiler

Hydravengers seemed to have individual personalities. I sort of had the idea from last issue that they might be automotons or something.

I also got the first JMS FF today, so nyah! I just skimmed through it, but there were a few good bits, and an interesting ending.

 

[euroq]

Looking forward to ASM and the first JMS FF.

Wow, I'd completely forgotten about the cliffhanger from the last issue of Hulk. I'm hoping David does something good with that...

Wow. These first few pages had several twists that I didn't see coming.

Spoiler

And is that Doom. Because it really looks like Doom, but we've been teased before with his return in MTU and it wasn't really him

 

[Zaptoitnow]

GLA # 3 Hmm...

Spoiler

So who is in the shadows? Couldn't be Doom... maybe Kritoff?

Why couldn't it be

Spoiler

Doom. That's the armor we last saw him in.

 

[iloveclones]

Oh, you know that wacky Doom, always sending out a Doombot or something.

 

[euroq]

Somehow I don't think Doom would want to return in GLA's book.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Heh, that last page of GLA is great. I figure it's a

Doombot

Could be. But we've

seen a doombot in that armor before.

I'm really just hoping he is back.

 

[Duneboy]

Does anyone know if Marvel ever released their *2099* line out on tpb's? I know it's been quite some time since they did those series' but I figured someone might know something out there. Thanks!

I assume you meant we've

Spoiler

never seen a Doombot in that armor before. Which doesn't really mean anything, since Doom's probably got loads of stuff we've never seen before.

I don't think GLA's the right place for his return.

Well, in my opinion, GLA is the perfect place for it. Because it would show inter-title continuity and connection.

Which probably means that it won't happen.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

But then Marvel wouldn't be able to hype Doom's return. You don't actually expect them to hype a title that's (gasp) GOOD, do you?

What do you mean?

Marvel only hypes good books.

Look at Arana. It's the greatest comic ever written. Better than Watchmen, better than DKR, better than Sandman.

And how about that New Avengers? Lots of talking, characters acting like they don't know each other, and innane storylines. That's ****ing quality.

Marvel wouldn't lead me astray.

If they aren't hyping it, it must be crap.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Gah, I misspoke. You're right, of course. Comics like Runaways and She-Hulk and Young Avengers, which deliver quality stories built around earnest, realistic characters and a strong sense of continuity, are such trash. Why haven't they canceled those pieces of **** and replaced them with quality titles like New Scorpiona and Absolutely Untenable X-Monkeys yet??

OMG WTF!!1!

Absolutely Untenable X-Monkeys IS teh Greatest thing since ARANA. Because Joey Q says it is and he's most definitely not a self-serving media ****e huckstering all of the public with his ridiculous hype.


Actually if they made a comic called Absolutely Untenable X-Monkeys, I'd probably buy it.
