Comic Book Thread: Combined for greatness

[Delirium]

If anyone wants to know what happens with AoU #10 without reading it

Spoiler: show

Hank Pym from the future gives a message to his younger self on how to contruct Ultron.
The Intelligencia finds a space knight that is really Ultron in disguise.
Because of the message, Hank is able to load a virus into Ultron, thus killing(ya right) it.
Because of all this time travel shit, the space-time continuum goes crazy.
EXCEPT it doesn't seem to affect the main universe much at all, as far as Beast, Stark, and Pym can tell
Instead, Galactus shows up in the ultimate-verse in front of Miles.
Angela gets pulled into the regular Marvel U and is pissy.
/facepalm
Also, isn't it great I can sum up a 20 something page comic in 7 sentences...

Yeah so I guess we have excuses now for cross overs like say Superior Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2099 occuring.


Might also explain how Ben Reilly is apparently alive again in Scarlet Spider soon.

whole thing feels very Crisis-ish to me. Which is not a good thing.

I read it last night, it shows that they dragged out AoU just to set up other stories for Marvel. It's pretty dumb but what else can you expect from Bendis. 616 Galactus in the Ultimate Universe might be interesting?

[tyven]

i havent picked up a single issue of AoU. good idea y/n?

I'm willing to give anything Fialkov writes a chance.
I'm also excited to see Spidey 2099, but yea AoU was so bland.

lolno

also, Last of Us ('-')b

[Vagrant]

If you really want to find out what happened in AoU just read the last two issues. All the other issues were mostly just filler to extend the series to ten issues. That said you're still better served just skipping the last two issues anyway.

[Delirium]

unrelated, anyone read the Last of Us tie-in comics?

[Kaslo]

I remember Marvel (maybe Bendis specifically) saying that 616/Ultimate would never cross over unless they run out of ideas... now that's happening twice in the span of two years....

I think it was Quesada who said it when he was EiC, but he isn't anymore so maybe that's why?

WHAT?! what are they about?

[Delirium]

WHAT?! what are they about?

Don't wanna spoil it if you haven't beaten it yet

Spoiler: show

prequel about Ellie and Riley. Only 2 of the 4 issues are out. Presumably ends after Riley becomes and infected after both are bit.

Not what I was hoping for but I will take it.

MAA: As per usual, Playdom is incompetent and did not release Season 2 today but Angel is under the Team selections. Unfortunately, it's 'Modern Angel' and not X-Force Archangel.

[Vagrant]

Yeah they did announce earlier it would be delayed and released a preview of two new villains. Selene and Sugar Man which leads me to believe Genosha will be involved if not Apocalypse soon.

I would expect PVP season 9 to start Friday with Angel as the reward. Hopefully when Apocalypse comes around Archangel alt will follow.

[grantlogan]

Prolly the thing I'm most excited to see in season 2 is what I'll call Incursions for now, until it goes live. The battle icon with 2 circles joined together that was most likely taken from New Avengers. Gimme some alternate reality fights!

[Vagrant]

Yeah those would be a lot of fun if they implemented them. AoA, DoFP, UM, even AoU I would guess.

Oh and season 9 in about an hourish or so apparently according to some pics people have posted. Mine says coming soon still but others are showing a countdown clock under an hour to go.
