hmm, umm... my guess?

I would guess he is getting more cash then he was back then.

As if he's worth it.



And now, from Bendis, we will be seeing the "Ultimate" Clone Saga... Wow, people see those ads and they may end up hiding somewhere where Marvel comics never show up, so they can avoid that "saga".

hmm, in the Ultimate FF, they showed that the hero who carried the zombie "virus" to the "zombieverse" was in fact Sentry. This could be a good way to get rid of him. Have him contract the virus, and in order to prevent his infecting others, he gets hurled thru some spatial distortion and lands in the zombieverse, and there ya go.

I really like Bendis' work...except when he tries one of two things:

1) Team books (maybe because he is too good at individuals?) There is no shame in not being a strong team writer, especially when he produced masterpieces like Alias, Powers, Daredevil, Powers etc. This man can plot an individuals trajectory with great precision...but his team books hit the target like a certain Vice-President.

2) Stories that rely strongly on continuity...he's admitted to confusing the identity of Jessica Drew/Jones (back when pitching Alias) he brought down firey damnation from other professions for his initial use of Luke Cage, he just guessed at what villains to use in the Secret War, etc. etc.

Iron Man appears to be taking place prior to Civil War right now as Cap is still leading the Avengers when they show up for the peace delegation.

I think I remember reading that interview (either reprinted in Powers, or online at Jinxworld). The Bendis is an amazingly brave guy for being brutally honest...I just hope that he's getting well rewarded for his participation in some of these train wrecks (Secret War, HoM, now Civil War)

Ouch, oh well least I like Civil War so far (I liked HoM and Secret War too... ). Meh, opinions are opinions.

I would like to see a Sentry comic, provided Jenkins is writing in and its not in the main continuity. He just seems out of place in the New Avengers to me. Whats the point in having a strong guy like Luke Cage fighting on your team when you have Sentry offering to throw whole island nations into space?

I don't think he needs his own series. i mean, he's had two now with little or no success. what the Sentry needs is a good writer/art team.

i volunteer chuck dixon/jim lee for the task.

other ideas?

i just think romita jr (is that his name) on the most recent series was the exact opposite style of art they should be going with. his style is more of a homage to the silver age of comics and what you need is somebody of lee/ross calibur to really capture the magesty of the power level that the Sentry represents.

I think Dixon and Lee might have something to say about you volunteering them, James.


JR, Jr's style is definitely a Silver Age art style. But, this would seem to fit the Sentry perfectly since his roots are supposed to have originated in the Silver Age when he was active.

First, I dunno if Jenkins can/will build up Sentry like Sentry needs to be built up, I think a writer like Loeb can/would do a better job of that. And any Sentry book will be in continuity. As for him being to strong, you could say the samething about Thor being an Avenger.

:yawn:
