Realm of Kings was utterly awesome.

I cannot wait to see where this arc goes.

However...

Re: Realm of Kings....



That was THE BEST SMITING I've seen a comic book in a long time.


*SMACK*

Thorthulu.....you are no good.

Mighty Avengers #31 was the best comic I read this week. I might post a proper review tomorrow, but I am going to have trouble picking a quote to go with my review. There must be at least 7 or 8 fantastic ones from which to choose. There was a winning moment on just about every single page.

I have to say, despite never really being a big fan of the whole Lovecraft horror type genre (Plush Cthulu mafia games aside), I'm really intrigued to find out what happens with the new Marvel Cthuluverse and just how the Cosmic heros manage take on Captain Cthulu, Iron Cthulu, Thorthulu, and the rest of the Evil Avengers of the unholy galactic squid people.

I'm also curious to find out if the Quasar that came back is their Quasar, or actually our Quasar but simply infected. Also, I can see where Magus was going with the whole not having a heart being a benefit thing, but I wonder how he knew about it and just what benefits it grants? Immunity to infection?

Everything was surprisingly good for me this week. Of course, half of what I read was Realm of Kings related so that's no surprise.

Both issues of Spider-Man were good though, which is a very nice change of pace. I'm curious though, why doesn't Peter remember that he's been drunk on more than one occasion? Did Mephisto wipe that out too? That's the deal that just keeps on giving.

just finished Dark Avengers,



*FROM OUT OF NOWHERE!*


Molecule Man!

And it's connected to Secret Wars 2.

Honestly? The Far Realm here seems very similar to the "mirror universe" the Magus conquered in Infinity War. With the evil savage monstrous versions of standard Earth heroes (and probably villains too).

Where's the Infinity Gauntlet when you really need it?!?

Thanks to Hammer of Thor, they're lined up on my shelf (complete with PIP!)

HAHAHAHAHA! YES! Lovecraft lives. I noted in another thread how I loved all the Lovecraftian stuff coming out of the Fault. Can the VOID be far behind?

I'm really enjoying everything that's going on with The Incredible Hulk. Since the Peter David era, Pak has been the best writer since. Marlo is back and so is the Harpy!!! I'm really enjoying the more pro-active Bruce Banner, just as much as seeing Hank Pym become more confident in himself over in The Mighty Avengers thanks to Dan Slott(who did a sensational job on the She-Hulk's book). I'm really looking forward o Fall of The Hulks. The Hulk's family has really grown over the years. If they all ever worked together as a team, they'd be pretty much unstoppable unless you brought in some cosmic powerhouses! Altho, Hiro-(whatever) appears to also be Banner's kid and he's taking on Galactus! And then there's also the new Scorpion who may be his daughter.

Now I need to glare at my comic shop, they didn't put Legacy in my box.
