I think Punisher would be to soon as he might not even be available yet when it starts. Psylocke is more likely to be involved.

I hope one of the deploys requires Mockingbird so I can see the Official forums overload with tears.

Sign me up! Rucka is the best. I'm so pissed his amazing Punisher run got cut short for the pile of dog shit that is Thunderbolts.

I need to pick that up. I absolutely loved Crooked Little Vein. Shit was nuts.

Expecting CB/Wasp. But then I see a bunch saying Cable and then an equal number saying Psylocke. Though everyone is basing the 2 90 cp heroes off of the fact that 6 had 2 (Tigra and Beast), but wasn't beast required for 5?

Today on FB MAA posted a pic of the upcoming alt outfit for War Machine. Iron Patriot from IM3. Looks pretty cool but no info. on what it will do. I'm hoping they release a ton of alts for Iron Man to reflect all the new armors in the movie.

Age of Ultron was kinda meh to me. Shiny cover though.
Dug All New XMen. Angel cracked me up and I loved Kitty and Bobby mimicking Beast and Cap

Age of Ultron was a cool story I guess but it's obvious that it's a future timeline. Current speculation is that there will be time travel and Pym will have to die to stop Ultron from being created. I'm thinking that will happen.

Sounds like a perfect excuse to segue into Starlord and some of the other Cosmic dudes being alive if we're going to be led to believe that Annihilation : Conquest never happened.

Avengers was great! If you haven't already picked up on whats going on, Hickman is bringing the the New Universe into the 616. Back in the 80's Marvel started another line of comics under the heading of the New Universe but it didn't last long.

The best part of the Kitty/Bobby dialog is that when you get to hear Cap's speech, they were pretty much spot on

Also, I remember new universe from when Exiles went through a similar world.

Yeah it wasn't bad. I'll give Bendis credit, it got right to it when most event books lately take for ever to do so. I am excite for crazy Moon Knight having the balls to fight some robots.

I gotta say, when Doc Ock took Spider-Man's body, I was sure it was going to be the dumbest thing. I eat those words, Superior Spider-Man is the best. I hope Pete never comes back, well at least not for a couple more years lol. It's a really fascinating read, to see a hero in a radically different light.

**Delirium** · 2013-03-06 23:01

Guardians of the Galaxy - Infinite
will be 4 issues, each featuring GotG members that arent Peter Quill. First is out featuring Drax. All free.

We've got until the next Spidey movie, since marvel is a big fan of syncing up movie properties to reboots/ BOLD new directions/etc in the comics.

Though maybe not since ASM movies aren't in house.

I would LOVE to see a Superior Spider-Man alt in MAA. Or even Ock-Spidey with a new move set.

**KoalaTrap** · 2013-03-07 01:07

Really enjoyed SEX by Joe Casey. Gave me a Watchmen kinda vibe what with it trying feeling like Superheroes in a more real world context.
Also enjoying the mystery being laid out by Lemire in Green Arrow (man I love Andrea Sorrentino's art.)

Hell even a Miles Morales alt...

Ben Reilly or gtfo, although he'd prolly be an alt if the ever added Kaine.
