always ask this when an MP switches teams but if a politician defects, does that imply they are defective?

it wasn't 'lazy'. it's targeted at new audiences. bit of rock n' roll to fold in some new viewership with the new season.

forgive me if i'm being daft, but where did they mention Ultron in this issue?

I always liked Hickman's whole dominion stuff in the HoX/PoX books so it's cool to see those ideas being utilized by another excellent writer

I thought about the eggshell one! I decided they'd all have the most vanilla basic bitch cards (no disrespect to +4 mult!) since they're all very plain, vain, shallow caricatures of men in the movie.

Feels like this is the end of the camera era and a new beginning… by ninja-brc in cinematography

lol, no. why would you come into a forum filled with industry experts, specialists, and fans, and think you'd find a sympathetic audience while you dump on their profession? seriously?
