Heheh ... that isn't at all how I read issue 513 :-). I read it as Emma being given the illusion of control under Norman. Right now, it is only Emma's pick for a team member (no spoilers) that is giving her any kind of edge. I read that team as being good people forced to do questionable things.

That team is going to be absolutely wicked to play. I almost took it myself.

Dark Avengers I've tried and it went badly for me (mind you, I was running without Ares or Sentry due to points). I will be very interested to see how they play out.

I don't think I've seen an ultimate brotherhood team, and I'm pretty sure that's what I'm gonna run.

Hey (N)Iceman,

Gotta spread some love before giving it to you again!...

Thanks for the help!

good idea go for it!

Sure, Mags, Sabretooth, Cyke, Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, Wolverine, not bad at all!

Hrm. Bit of a late question now, but... would an MI13 core be allowed to draft a single Skrull Infiltrator to represent John the Skrull?

These are the things that run through my head two hours after waking up on a day that I apparently (according to the wife and my laptop's history) emailed work at 5am saying I was going to be out sick today because of a really, really bad night of restless dreams and non-sleeping...

Also, something I just realized...

The Dark Avengers and Dark X-Men can't ever face each other. Because if we both draft a sub for Daken, and we both field him, the universe will implode...

Umm... not if we went by how they do it in the original.

I almost considered drafting the Cabal but I thought there was no way I would get the whole team, even though I think I had enough points.

R Green Goblin: 80 pts
R Sub-Mariner: 116pts
R White Queen: 61pts
R Hood: 28pts
R Doom: 121pts
U Loki: 160pts

Total: 566.

Ok, Dark X-Men might be gray... but Dark Avengers are villains, right?
Right??

Let's give the word 'Dark' some respect, otherwise soon no one will fear it

Dark Avengers = Villain
Dark Wolverine = Villain
Dark Ms. Marvel = Villain
Dark Spider-Man = Villain
Dark Captain Marvel = Villain
Dark X-Men = ... not villain? Don't think so.

Let's face it... your roster includes White Queen, Mystique, Dark Wolverine, Dark Beast, the guy who killed off Alpha Flight, and the guy who's waged war on the surface world multiple times. I vote for 'villain team that can also recruit Cloak and Dagger'.

... wait... I'm a villain team....

Nah, they can be heroes. Less chance of cross-recruiting.

Is there no Marvel Villians team looking for DC badness? None at all? I promise I've given up my backstabbing ways.

Not really, no. I think I can take care of all my needs Marvel-side.

Altho I could really use a good villain-based Dark Captain Marvel sub. Don't think I'm getting one this season tho.

We are!

The 'Green Mean Machine' is looking for some recruits to "Screwlinize" the Universe!
