May 22, 2012 1:05 pm I Just realised that Iceman's ice bridges(?) are really dangerous. they are solid now, but in a matter of minutes they will be crashing to the ground as big icy boulders. Not only is he upstaging the wedding, but he is a public heath risk whenever he uses his powers to get around.

May 8, 2012 8:38 am I was going to drop this, not because it is bad, but because of financial constraints, but I will keep on because of she-hulk. She doesnt get enough page time since Betty Ross became a hulk. Which is lame by the way. Anyway, this is a good book and should be read with our without Jen Walters.

April 30, 2012 12:22 pm I didn't realise Avengers is not out in the US yet. That is weird to me, from the UK. Anyway, you are all in for a real Coulsony treat, he is fantastic. So... Hard... Not... To... Spoil!

April 10, 2012 8:03 am Im really enjoying this book. The art is pretty special and a tad unusual, but the story is kind of familiar. All the hallmarks of a great story. Different but familiar at the same time.

April 5, 2012 10:56 am If you like the work on the Nova bit then you need to check out Power Play by Curt christiansen and Reilly brown. They use all that cool effects stuff and were a good few months ahead of Marvel. Unfortunately they can't seem to get out more than 1 issue, but it is worth seeing.

April 3, 2012 4:28 am Just so's you know, Chris Bachalo is a terrific artist and anyone who doesn't like his work is an idiot with no conception of what art it. Just sayin. ZING!

February 23, 2012 3:04 am The sensational she hulk series was slapstick, but it was also part of the tradition of books, like the seminal animal man run by grant morrison, where the form of comics was being challenged. So the sensational she hulk is historically important. The follow up series by dan slott was just really good comics, very well told and a prime example of what can happen when you give a talented writer the keys to a character and let him do what he wants. As a result of slott's run and to a lesser extent the David follow up, she hulk became an interesting, rounded, complex character that deserves better and is capable of more than most give her credit. And I haven't even mentioned her runs in the ff and avengers. She hulk is important to the history of the MU.

February 22, 2012 2:13 pm Good call Chris, as John Byrne said, or maybe it was Peter David, She hulk has the potential to be marvel's wonder woman. However, I think there is a flaw in your plan. I thought bends had a well documented dislike of she hulk and wanted to kill her off? I'm sure I read that somewhere. Anyway, with enough launch velocity a she hulk book could do really well. Good choice Chris!

February 17, 2012 12:23 pm Of course all the above is only relevant if you live in a world of absolute dichotomies. Which unfortunately a lot of people do. I don't worry about Hank Pym's past so much. He did a terrible thing and as a result is looked down upon in the real and fictional worlds. But to me, in the context of the Marvel Universe, he has saved the world hundreds of times over which balances out a single act of domestic abuse. More's to the point, he has never done it again and I don't buy into the "capability is always there" idea. Its horribly absolute and counter productive, in the fictional and real worlds. Just to make it clear, I don't condone domestic abuse, or abuse of any kind. I just dont see the value in judging a person, real or imagined, on an isolated incident for which they have only shown contrition over the past 30 years. If there are things that can be done that put a person beyond fogiveness then the whole concept of forgiveness is utterly hollow.
