It's been okay. It doesn't have the same special quality that made the Abnett & Lanning run so great, but Bendis is clearly building towards something, so we'll see if it pays off.
I miss Abnett & Lanning run, that was some good cosmic stuff. Loeb's Nova is very very bad.
 
No one beats Dick Rider in the Marvel Universe in terms of having big balls and big heart. There isn't a selfish bone in his body-he would give his life and die from exhaustion rather than let something bad happen that he couldn't stop. He's probably still alive in the Cancerverse right now kicking the crap out of everything trying to find a way home.

He got heart and balls, but he would barely be 10 in the MU with that.
 
It feels kinda wrong talking about his dead kid like this, but he really has to let go.

I do feel sorry for the guy.
But at the point when he is literally transplanting the kid into the Marvel universe (badly)
He just looks like a sad and crazy old man who cannot move on.

At some point somebody has to say 'look Jeph, your work over the last few years has been goddamn awful, its time to stop'.

speaking of which, did they ever explain how Peter got out? And why Richie didn't?

I'm already pissed that they apparently brought Thanos back already.
 
Nope they didn't explain jack.

Expect for some throwaway 'remember that cancerverse thing haha' line.

Fucking Bendis & Loeb man.

Speaking of which if either of those two are allowed within 1000 miles of the GotG film production it'll be a disaster.

Loeb hasn't written anything good in at least a decade. It's a shame given how he used to be such a good writer, but I've given up on even checking out something with his name on it.

I keep saying he's a DC sleeper agent, but nobody listens to me. Something about what my hat is made out of.
 
You can clearly see the difference in the OP between the new GotG (Iron Man scene) vs. the old Abnett and Lanning run (Nova scene).

It's really sad. I wish they would just cancel the new run and give the series back to DnA. At least the movie(s) will be based on their version.

That's a relief
 
We need a new New Warriors team. We already have a leader.

nova gutting annihilus from his mouth

Annihilus hasn't been shit since the 70s. It's his billions strong army of insect-warriors, the Annihilation Wave that was scary. Ricky Rider just snatched the remote control from Kim Il Jung of the Negative zone that's all.
 
How do the new GotG comics compare to the older ones? I read up until the end of the Thanos Imperative and haven't followed it since.

I'm very sure that Annihilus had Quasar's bands at the time.. that would've made him a very formidable opponent.
 
FEEL MY POWER!

I've only ever seen Nova in Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom. Love his voice actor, and the swagger about the character. I hope he's in the upcoming movie.
 
I only know about this guy from playing UMVC3

His win quotes are the worst and makes him sound like a 12 year old kid.

I hate him.

you are bad and you should feel bad.

Didn't they make reboot Nova to be a kid character?

I recall someone from an earlier thread about Nova being pissed at Jeph Loeb for doing so.

the less we think about that the better.

Dick Rider is lame. And you guys have failed continually to show me otherwise.

you know what's lame? you.

And we are done. Probably my second favorite moment from Annihilation. The first being Galactus unleashing max power Silver Surfer upon the fleet.

I liked when Galactus broke free from the prison and powered up, took out three solar systems just by yawning basically.

Beat him at what?
Kyle would probably win in most departments.


depends on which Kyle and which Rider. Ion Kyle wins, Nova prime Rider wins, white lantern Kyle wins I think.

I actually could see Rider and Rayner being bros and going around the universe being awesome together.

Kyle doesn't have the women banging skills that say a Hal does.
 
AT MARVEL HQ:

Hey, guys, guess what. I have the perfect comedic moment. It's genius! Up there with the likes of Brooks and The Marx Brothers in lasting brilliance. Tony Stark sleeps with Gamora and....snicker.....GET THIS. Performs badly in bed. AHAHAHAHAHAHA. Get it!? Because he's a playboy, but it's a space warrior he's sleeping with so he sucks in bed! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

No wait, it's just unfunny and ignorant and I hate it.
 
Mmm. I went and looked up the definition. Around me, ignorant was always used as a synonym of stupid. I see the issue. Let me clarify. I mean stupid. Not clever.

Although I think it's fucking stupid I have to clarify this.

At least you're using the right term this time
 
I never knew Gamora was Thanos' adpoted daughter, when did all that happen?

I wanna re-read Cosmic Marvel up til Cancerverse story now...
 
You know I dont think I have ever liked anything that Bendis has ever wrote.

It always feels like he changes the characters to fit his crap stories, instead of writing the stories to fit the characters.
