Revengers!!! Mount up!

Thanks to Toplessrobot.com check em out http://www.toplessrobot.com/2011/08/marvel_comics_news_trifecta.php


See that its the Revengers. Apparently Wonder Man is back to his evil ways or is he? Assembling guys screwed over by Avengers or individual members.
Let's see we have Anti-Venom the former Venom Eddie Brock who actually was doing good but Spidey doesn't trust him cause Peter is kind of a ass about it.Powers basically like Venom but undefined healing powers

Ethan Edwards who was a Superman analogue in a story I never read and had to google him.I guess Superman type powers but not has cool has old school Hyperion(look him up)

Atlas was a Thunderbolt but killed off cause he could never completely reform.Growth powers

Devil Slayer was a Defender not sure how he ties in with the premise though he is a little crazy.Imagine Buffy(but predates her)but with a sword

Goliath nephew of the hero who got shot in the face by Tony Stark's Thor clone during Civil war Uh growth powers again.This would never happen in the Legion unless they were siblings :)

Century former Force Works guy(ugh)neat character not sure how he fits.Super axe thingy

Captain Ultra-comedy character who was turned down by the Avengers and I think was a Defender for a Day. basically Martian Manhunter abilities and phobia though I remember a story where he could make balloon animals

D-Man-Demolition Dunphy former wrestler and Cap sidekick.most notable for smelling bad. I love Bendis sometimes. He punches guys

"New" Ultimate Spidey Reactions Reaction/I can see for Miles

Let me preface this with I don't read U Spidey but I think this is an interesting idea moving the universe along and making it different from the 616. Though I like my idea of Peter coming back has the new Venom/Carnage.This little article isn't about my thought its about the narrow minded asses reacting to this on USA Today among others http://www.usatoday.com/life/comics/2011-08-01-black-spider-man_n.htm?csp=obinsite

1.No Miles wasn't created because Obama is President he actually has more in common with the online campaign to have Donald Glover play Spidey in the movie.That way of thinking is like why wasn't Captain America made into a drunken cokehead when W was President? Cause the President has no bearing on such things.

2.People are calling out the artist for saying that one day a black or gay or even both hero will be common place. They are saying stop equating the struggle of the two groups. Cause golly I guess we have to be all in seperate categories there can't be gay black people. Course I will get responses that I don't know anything cause I am white and straight.

3. One thing I will agree with was why did USA Today downplay the fact that Miles is half Hispanic? One commenter said it would be Spider Hombre but there has been a Spider Heroine Arana a few years ago.

4.Why is this a big deal to comic fans? I really don't think it is.Might lead to some good stories which is what matters but has I said in the preface I don't read Ultimate anyway.I wonder what people said when James Rhodes became Iron Man? Oh yeah that was the eighties before Marvel spoiled comics before they came out in major newspapers so only comic readers knew about stories.(ick I called USA Today a major newspaper that is how sad journalism is today)

Iron Manime episode Quick review

So G4 after months of showing commercials finally premiered Iron Man and Wolverine animes last night. I made it five minutes into Wolverine so that should tell you the quality of Iron Man.
The story seems to take place in the movie universe has Tony Stark is in Japan to build an arc reactor and train a replacement. Way to help the US economy there Tony!. So basically the replacement unit Dio goes rogue and is quickly defeated. No really I have seen longer fights with Tyson involved. i must have missed something though cause after the he is attacked by a xenomorph from Aliens and then it's gone. Roll credits. Wolverine starts I laugh at Milo Ventmiglia has Wolvie and turn it off.

Okay the good about it. When its not cgi the Iron man armors design is great.

Now the ugly like Icarus's tattoo ugly.(wrestling joke)The horrible dubbing is mid eighties/early nineties bad.It seems like the actors just read a script then people just played the audio track over the show.Also has noted on twitter(soggyhydrox)the cgi is lacking and shoehorned into the show. I have hope for X-Men and Blade(oddly enough)but not much

I know he is credited has such but are we sure Warren Ellis wrote this? Though he did write Extremis which was BORRRIINNNGGG for the most part he is quality. I don't blame him even man's gotta eat

Stats

Thanks for reading people remember leave comments. Going over start looks like people were searching for Earth 2 Robin stuff when I posted that article what a year or so ago. Go figure. I should do another costume post.

Lord of the Claws or Game of Paws

Thundercats review-
So I just finished watching the first two episodes of the new Thundercats series,and I must say I enjoyed it. Okay more then just enjoyed it was very very well done. Instead of the Great Exodus from Thundera that opened the original series all the action takes place on Thundera. The Cats are the dominant species and the other species (so far only dogs and lizards seen)are seen has lower life and made slaves of. The Cats are sorta like Romans.The focus is on Lion-O training to be Lord of the Cats so you know where that will lead. Lion-O is fascinated by technology that for some reason has become a myth to most Cats.
I don't wanna give to much away plotwise but one funny thing is one character showed up 5 minutes after I wondered if he was in it.(Grune) Another Cat makes a cameo that was just clearly for fans and a in case we don't get to him moment. Lots of slight sound effects and music cues from the og show.Oh and OG Lion-O voice actor Larry Kenney plays King Cladius. I applaud the people on this show they are clearly fans

Two kind of funny things stood out for me all the commoner Cats look like Hayao Miyazaki designed them. The other is the group is structured like an old school RPG party. Lion-O the young hero thankfully without amnesia.Cheetara is the healer/light weapons.Tigra is the brash ace type guy(Han Solo) and Snarf is the pet
Somethings I don't like Snarf doesn't talk and Slithe doesn't do the YESSSSSSSS thing.So far Monkian and Jackalman haven't showed up but I am sure they will in coming episodes

I will do a longer review down the line instead of this rambling one maybe at the end of the season.I might actually write that one beforehand instead of off the top of my head
If you were a fan of the original or like fantasy/action jump right in and watch this.
