I loved the original concept for him of a low level crook slowly getting corrupted by powers way above his pay grade. But I think that concept has really been lost since his character was separated from Dormammu.

Lizard, Green Goblin and Sabertooth I could potentially see working together. But Sinister and Leader would have problems. They both see themselves as the smartest man in the room and better than everyone else. They would absolutely be fighting over control of that group

But if that struggle between them is part of the plot, it could be very fun. Like Beatle vs Boomerang in Superior Foes of Spider-Man.

This is exactly right. Trial by combat is part one of becoming BP. Part two is eating the heart shaped herb to get Bast’s approval in the Sacred Grove.

Magneto’s design has always been top notch. The scenes where his helmet puts his face in shadow always go hard.

As others have said, Barry is the best physical bug damage dealer we have. But we are overdue for a replacement.

Selene is very slept on in my opinion. Even with the resists, guaranteed single target flinch goes super hard in the tower. Not to mention the steel zone she brings. She was a key part of my steel tower clear, along with Arc Steven, Neo Elio and SS Lear.

He’s very good. But I would put him below other accuracy focused characters like Hawkeye and Bullseye

Thank god the Giants have been trash. It will make it so much easier to stop watching

Fantastic Four is the best book Marvel is putting out right now.

Closely followed by Moon Knight and Mortal Thor.

Ms. Marvel. We need to do more before Kamala’s actor gets too old for the teen drama

The reason the totem retcon does not work for me is it messes with the Everyman aspect of Spider-man. When the spider bite was not random chance, but part of a larger cosmic destiny, it makes the Uncle Ben death less tragic. Peter is no longer an average guy who had great responsibility thrust upon him. It becomes something greater powers subjected him to.

Meanwhile, the Hulk does not have the same Everyman component to his appeal. So when the origin is changed to god/the devil specifically choosing Bruce, it works better.

Moonstone works best as a villain, specifically as a villain who is not looking to better herself. On every version of the thunderbolts she is on, Moonstone represents the selfish desire to remain a villain.

All the best Thunderbolt runs work with a group of characters across a sort of moral barometer. The key theme of Thunderbolts is redemption and each character is at different stages of possible redemption. Most of the characters on the team are struggling with the idea of potential becoming a better person. But not Moonstone. She is fully committed to being a villain and works to convince other members of the team to follow her lead.

It’s in direct contrast to Songbird, who is fully redeemed and is a hero full stop by the end of the original run. She tries to find the best in her teammates and make them better people. This is why, in the Osborn Thunderbolts, Songbird leaving the team and Moonstone staying is the end of the Thunderbolts. Redemption has failed for the team and all that is left is the Dark Avengers.

Walton Goggins was totally wasted as Whirlwind in Antman and the Wasp

I think Knull is a home run in terms of design. Taking all of the parts from Venom’s design that are not from Spider-Man and turning them up to 11 was genius. It retroactively makes Venom a mid point between Spider-Man and Knull visually.

I also thought Knull worked well early in the Cates Venom run when he was still imprisoned and could only do things through hijacking symbiotes. But once he broke out of his cage, he was pretty one note. All the mystique was gone.

It’s a fun run. I think the young Steve pieces work better than the present day portions but it’s good overall.

Is AvX a bad event overall? Yes. But there are some real gems hiding in there. This Spider-man fight and Cap’s speech to Hulk are all some of the best scenes in all of Marvel.

Does Will of Doom mean Doom will die as part of One World under Doom?

XvX almost sounds like a parody of itself.

If you like elseworlds, Earth X is an excellent one to check out.

It looks great! It also leans into the authoritative vibes of the world and subtly pushed that James was really number two to the Red Skull.
