The Official Stupid Question Thread: Marvel Edition - Part 2

[runawayboulder]

thanks. How recent? I know she went out on a date with him in her cancelled series. Have they been paired up in his?

They haven't done anything but gone on a date in her recent solo. In the Spider-Man SIEGE one shot, the Venom symbiote took over Carol's body briefly. He then revealed that Carol had deep feelings for Pete which she confirmed later. It's gone nowhere (creative-wise) since.

Back to the pic of her and Tony......I think she may be one of the few Tony hasn't banged. He did support her through her alcoholism in the late 90's but that's it. He missed a prime opportunity there to catch her while she was vulnerable.

I remember she recently had a brief fling with Wonder-Man.

So.... what is the Cosmic Cube? Just a source of unlimited power that can do anything or are there limits and boundaries?

Um, since it's a cube that can alter reality (you heard that right, reality) it's probably unlimited in power. We have people like Franklin Richards and Wanda Maximoff who can alter reality too, but they have their Limits. Maybe the cube's the same.

For the whole deal with IM and MM, I just want to mention how nice it was of Tony to help Carol out in her drinking problem, though he really could have taken his chance right there to just...y'know...

Not like she would have remembered...

 

[Varient]

Nope, but she recently had a fling with Spider-Man.




.

Whoa,... I thought they had only dated - and were moving toward that kinda thing before the current hash of BC, Carlie, and "shared a toothbrush" Mary Jane.

Then, (Shucks gosh darn it) Marvel dropped that thread.

IMHO Ms Marvel would've become whipped.

 

[Harlekin]

I'm pretty sure they didn't do the deed.

 

[Anubis]

Also, don't you mean.....Twipped?

I have a very hard time believing that.

I have a very hard time believing that.

It's all been printed in stories, what's not to believe?

 

[Havok83]

I think I could have gone for Ms. Marvel and Captain America

 

[Panthro]

Maybe it's the slightly dysfunctional Rick Hunter/Lisa Hayes from Robotech vibe, but I just don't think Ms. Marvel should date a guy who sold his marriage to the devil.

Ms. Marvel & Captain America - I could see that.

 

[runawayboulder]

He's had Sharon for a while now, her and Carol are cut from a similar cloth.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Cap's too good for Carol and she probably knows that.

 

[Havok83]

I like it. I do enjoy their friendship and thought they've had some good moments in the past. I can see them working for a bit

 

[runawayboulder]

I don't think that's true at all. That's was the paranoia talking, back in her booze soaked days.

Cap nearly fell right over when it came to Wanda during Disassembled.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, but... Carol's made of suck.

 

[runawayboulder]

Carol's awesome. She used to be a nobody, resorting to being a part of Rogue's origin and Wolverine's butt buddy but Busiek did some exceptional work with her and other writers have built her up since.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

And then Bendis made it all meaningless by having her suddenly be a loved and respected hero after House of M, in spite of all the disgrace she heaped upon herself during Busiek's run.

 

[runawayboulder]

Busiek didn't leave her busted for someone else to pick up the pieces. There were 2 scenes from both Live Kree or Die and Kang Dynasty that mirrored each other, her court martial. The first one, her status was deactivated and in the second one she was cleared of the charges.

 

[Franklin Richards]

I liked it when Ben Grimm and Logan were Betty and Veronica for Carol back in the SHIELD days.

Yeah, well... I don't think I actually read the last few of Busiek's arcs. So shut up.

 

[Franklin Richards]

You can reign in your Carol Funk there Corp. I know for a fact that when she was Binary and hanging out with space pirates you thought she was awesome!

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, her Binary days weren't half-bad.

 

[Havok83]

That wasnt a Bendis thing. It was Marvel mandated, as they were giving her a push. Bringing her back as leader of the Avengers coincided with the debut of her solo series which spun out of HoM

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Whoever's fault it was, it was a big hit to Carol's character and any sympathy I could possibly have toward her.

 

[Varient]

Including selling your marriage to the devil.

I can't relate to people who sell their marriages to the devil.

I have a very hard time believing that.

Maybe it's the slightly dysfunctional Rick Hunter/Lisa Hayes from Robotech vibe, but I just don't think Ms. Marvel should date a guy who sold his marriage to the devil.

Ms. Marvel & Captain America - I could see that.

It finally dawns on me that you might have a small problem with Mephisto making a deal with the parkers.

(Smile)
Didn't everybody get what they want?

Well Bendis certainly got what he wanted.
