June 1, 2010 1:43 am I have to say whoever was doing the art on the fill in pages was just awful, but that may be in contrast to what a great job bachalo is doing. I know it won't happen, but it would be cool if marvel let him redo the pages he couldn't get to in time for the trade paperback.

I thought this book was great. My only problem was I figured Secret Avengers would be a ground level threat kind of book. Especially with Brubaker on board. The minute you go all space adventure, I just consider that a normal Avengers kind of thing. 

Who do you guys think will be the first off the team? I'm hoping Valkyrie. No reason other than I don't care for her or see how hit fits on an espionage team.

I can see how Thunderbolts would get pick of the week. I'm just kind of shocked that the group was made by committee and not Captain Steve Rogers telling him who to put on the team. And how long do you think it'll be before we're calling him Cap'n Steve? 

February 10, 2010 4:55 am Who's that in the back right? The dude from the Wrecking Crew?  I can't see this being really good. And is Man-Thing a former villain really? I don't get it. Maybe they will kill Man-Thing to get some team bonding to take place. Bleh.

As far as the Bucky/Captain America thing goes. Here's my longshot guess.....

Steve Rogers will either team up with or start a new SHIELD with Nick Fury. Maybe some banter about him giving up one shield for another. Leaving Bucky to be Captain America permanently.

And this whole Heroic Age thing makes me think Disney is pushing for a more watered down Marvel. With clear cut good guys, bad guys. I can't see the above team being the new Avengers line up. I hope they don't get too controlling with the stories ie, the violence, etc.  

Didn't they just cancel Agents of Atlas? Great book. That's too bad if it's true.

Has anyone heard of this "32 rule"? I read somewhere that the max allowable words per panel was 32. Obviously one look at an Alan Moore book or Batman's word balloon throws that right out the window. I use it myself as a good guide. But how much is too much? Maybe there is a percentage rule? Like if the balloon takes up more than a third of the panel?

Why can't they do this series for Batman? Who wouldn't watch a series called Gotham? Pre-costume young Bruce Wayne learning how to be a detective. Not a ninja, we've seen that in Batman Begins. But a nice, gritty true crime drama. 
 
I've got a lot of catching up to do on this show. I heard the first seasons we're pretty bad with sort of an x-files monster of the week vibe. Where's the best place to get into the show?

Totally buying this. Great review man.

 Does anyone here think Darwin Cooke would do a great Madmen comic book? (from AMC)
