Remember when I joked that IW would be Infinity and Avengers 4 would be Secret Wars? Lol.

 

[Buckle]

Supergiant sounds like a name a six year old would come up with

"He's stronger than God, The Devil and Superman put together!"

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

Supergiant sounds like a name a six year old would come up with

It's also the name of a type of star.

 

[Frostinferno]

....It's a joke, guys. Sometimes we do them here on good ol' GAF.

Your joke can be made while still being unaware of why he's actually getting buff. Hence the responses.

[Freewheelin']

It still sounds like a name a six year old would come up with

 

[Secret Character]

The names are all star related.

Corvus is a constellation (the Raven)
Proxima is a star in the Centaurus constellation
Supergiant is a form of star, usually happening before a large star goes into Supernova
Black Dwarf is what happens to a small star after losing it's energy
Ebony Maw literally means Black Hole.

So is Captain America.

 

[Dongs Macabre]

Thanos looks like a dork with that popped collar.


EDIT

"Gimme your lunch money, nerd."

 

[Freewheelin']

So is Captain America.

I agree. That was at least for propaganda purposes and his role as Captain America is played as a bit of a joke with all those promotional videos.

But no real self respecting villain picks a name like fucking Supergiant

Dude super villains have dumb names all the time and the hill you want to die on is Supergiant? Lol

Lemme go ask my bros Doctor Octopus and Green Goblin to see what they think.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

I am ready for some black on black crime

Why are there two Black Panthers?

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Why are there two Black Panthers?

That's T'Challa's sister, Shuri.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

Thanos' generals. From Hickman's Avengers run.

You can't have a list of people with ridiculous names and not end it with "Todd from accounting!"

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

That's T'Challa's sister, Shuri.

Why is she in the suit and why'd he call her queen. I hope he didn't marry her.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Why is she in the suit and why'd he call her queen. I hope he didn't marry her.

LOL. No, it's nothing like that, don't worry.

T'Challa was in a coma after an attack or something, can't really remember, and she earns the mantle of Black Panther by saving Wakanda.

 

[jon bones]

Why is she in the suit and why'd he call her queen. I hope he didn't marry her.

T'Challa was not the King at that time, Shuri was leading Wakanda as Queen

 

[Toa TAK]

This is your daily reminder to be reading the current Black Panther run.

 

[Slayven]

Scarlet Witch or Vision would be a good fight for Supergiant

 

[liquidtmd]

EDIT

"Gimme your lunch money, nerd."

'Why don't you make like a tree, and get out of here'

 

[Escape Goat]

Scarlet Witch or Vision would be a good fight for Supergiant

Vision is going to get his stone snatched out of his head.

RIP in peace.

 

[autumnleaf]

I think Vision is going to get locked up in a cell (captured by the Black Order/Ebony Maw) like Thane in Infinity and the Avengers are going to try and rescue him. That's my guess for the the end of the movie with them failing and Thanos completing the Gauntlet.

 

[kurahador]

Can't help but reminded of FFXII judges for some reason seeing them lineup like that.

 

[aadiboy]

Dang, forget Thanos, that guy on the right looks twice as huge as him. Thank god they're actually giving the main villain some decent henchman to fight against rather than weak minions like in the previous Avengers.

 

[Afro Thunder]

Don't take BlackDwarf seriously. He is the weaker of the bunch.

 

[BobTheFork]

I would rather then just spent more time with Thanos.

They have barely made him a character but we get to spent lots of time with his job squad.

 

[Busaiku]

We will never get the NO.

 

[Donos]

Wtf when did they announce Brolin as cable in DP2?

 

[Escape Goat]

Lat month? It's been aehile.

 

[Sesha]

That's cool. I figured there'd be a lot of Infinity influences in the movies.

 

[ZeoVGM]

I actually think this will help with that. Showing his interactions with his family, much like Gamora and Nebula once were, will tell us more about his character.

 

[SArcher]

Still no closeup photos?

 

[Shambalakan]

Is this Doomsday's brother?

 

[JoJo UK]

Is this Doomsday's brother?

lol MCU have a better (looking at least) Doomsday than was in BvS.

 

[bengraven]

Yea what's up with Black Dwarf's name? Cold Obsidian?

What?

Also no Black Order.

"We have a black panther already...don't want people to suspect we're supporting both the Black Panthers AND a black new world order. You know how THOSE people get".

 

[Escape Goat]

I want a batman inspired ablative armor cod piece

 

[TropicalFish]

I wish Proxima had her gold metal arm and the larger two pronged helmet from the comics, but otherwise all four look top notch. Corvus Glaive looks sublime tbh.

So excited for the Black Order.

 

[ChubbyHuggs]

Dooope!

 

[B-Dubs]

The Black Order?

OH YES!

 

[andythinkpad]

Do they do funny bits like Frieza's Elites?

If not this will suck harder than Avenger 2.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

That time Proxima got rekt by a brick and Land's art:

 

[SArcher]

Black Dwarf was the biggest jobber. Gets his ass handed to him by Black Panther, then gets knocked the fuck out by Thanos and finally gets his head smashed in by Ronan.

 

[Screaming Meat]

That time Proxima got rekt by a brick and Land's art:

The Dude!

 

[massoluk]

So basically jobber for weaklings like Cap and Hawkeyes?

 

[lordmrw]

So basically jobber for weaklings like Cap and Hawkeyes?

If Hawkeye or Captain America take out any of them something is seriously wrong.

 

[massoluk]

If Hawkeye or Captain America take out any of them something is seriously wrong.

I'm trying to be positive here!

 

[DeathyBoy]

It's a shame they took these from Hickman's run, but without Namor/Reed and the Illuminati buildup they're just going to be generic, throw away bad guys.

Like Hickman's stuff is all part of a long range story. Just taking shit and throwing it into an Avengers film.... sigh.

 

[ChubbyHuggs]

I would rather then just spent more time with Thanos.

They have barely made him a character but we get to spent lots of time with his job squad.

We ain't about to get no Thanos Rising on screen.

 

[danthefan]

This is going to be the busiest film of all time. How many fucking characters can they squeeze in?

 

[SpaceWolf]

This is going to be the busiest film of all time. How many fucking characters can they squeeze in?

Scarlett Johansson stated in a recent interview that there's a particular scene she's in where there are approximately 65 Marvel characters running around.

It's going to be big.
