I have to agree. The same-old-character fatigue is real. But I will say this, tho. We can't really argue that the Elders should be way more powerful than regular characters... since well, I have yet to read a comic book in which so-called "powerful" characters actually defeat permanently the superheroes. Isn't Thanos so powerful he can punch Captain America's head off? He can. He doesn't. And that's true pretty much for all the powerful characters.

I mean, need I remind you that Champion debuted in a comic book in which he fights Ben Grimm, and Grimm doesn't die?

That is what Elseworld comics are for

My fear now is that we're going to get remakes of the key Elders and miss out on first time clix of these classic characters.

Not today it would seem. Which doesn't bode well for the rest of the week.

Nooooo 😭😭😭😭😭

With the prerelease next week, it doesn't make sense to hold the previews any longer. I'm holding out hope one will show up later today.

Patience.
The day is not over yet.

Hold the line! Scott isn't always on time!

(With apologies to both Mr. Porter and the band Toto)

How much lead time does Scott usually give us?

Set releases June 5th; Pre-Release starts May 29th.

Does Scott usually do his previews the week before the Pre-Release starts?
If so, he probably won't start until next Monday.

It wasn't combat to the death, it was a boxing match.
He fought and defeated Colossus, I think Sasquatch, and some others before he merely beat the Thing up quite badly.
The Thing kept answering the bell, though. The Thing went the distance, which was more than the others could do.

I don't think that anyone is arguing for an unbeatable Champion. Yes, he can be beaten.
But it should take more than two punches from an 80 point Rafael to get it done.

Either way Wizkidz is gonna squeeze me for a brick or two...

They're squeezing me for 2 cases.

Prerealise starts may 22th
