Happenstance Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Im not sure id actually want him to die, I think hes become a good Marvel villian instead of just Spider-Man one. Like how Lex Luthor branches out from Superman from time to time. Still, id like to see him back for a while as the goblin. I think there needs to be a really good Spider-Man Vs Green Goblin arc soon, its been too long. Are we thinking Ares is going to be the only big hero death from this event then or possibly could there be more? Some people seem to be wondering if Ms Marvel might be the one to get it. I hope not though as ive been reading her series lately and am quite enjoying it. Especially her new friendship with Spidey.

Regarding deaths, Tom Brevoort said theres two more deaths.
Paj! Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 A lovely issue. Though it did feel a bit like... Osborn went down too easily. But it was actually quite realistic. He was just an inexperienced version of Iron Man. I liked that they made Spidey beat him. :p I like Victoria Hand. I hope that wasn't her dying.

Happenstance Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Im kind of suprised they actually killed off Sentrys wife but it does fill me with hope that this means Sentry wont be around anymore after Siege.
Dan_Dare Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Siege and DA were both aces this week. So far, all my theories are proving wrong, though. D'oh.
Happenstance Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 GUARDIANS OF THE GLOBE Coming from Image Aug 2010 (For Real) A week of teasers started out with a serious, and obvious inclusion and the seeming announcement of a new team book coming from Image Comics. Invincible has featured the Guardians of the Globe more than a few times in his own book, afterall. Day 2 was surprising, and made a little joke, but was still somewhat in the realm of possibility. Then it got silly, and then goofy, and even had a dash of straight-up attention grab. Well, it wasn't all for nothing, as there IS actually a Guardians of the Globe book launching in August 2010, though it won't feature most of those folks. In fact, it won't feature any of them. The real team will be revealed next week, but some details were given today. Robert Kirkman is writing the book with Benito Cereno, who has written adventures of former members of the Guardians in the past. Ransom Getty provides the art to go with it. The six-issue miniseries will run alongside the long-awaited Viltrumite War storyline in Invincible, filling in readers on what happens at home on Earth while Mark Grayson is off in space. The group's lineup will be revealed next week. Full Press Release is below. Press Release WHO GUARDS THE GLOBE? Robert Kirkman launches Invincible spin-off with GUARDIANS OF THE GLOBE Berkeley CA - 19 March 2010 - Invincible is off fighting the Viltrumite War, so who's watching the shop while he's away? GUARDIANS OF THE GLOBE, a new six-issue miniseries coinciding with INVINCIBLE: The Viltrumite War, tells Earth's story. In GUARDIANS OF THE GLOBE -- cowritten by superstar Robert Kirkman (Invincible, The Walking Dead, The Astounding Wolf-Man) and Benito Cereno (Invincible Presents: Atom Eve, Invincible Presents: Atom Eve & Rex Splode) and drawn by gifted newcomer Ransom Getty -- heroes both familiar and new struggle to protect Earth in Invincible's absence. "Needless to say, Invincible, Spawn, Rick Grimes, President Obama, and a certain boy wizard aren't GUARDIANS OF THE GLOBE," jokes Robert Kirkman. "The teasers released this week have been all in fun, but next week's teasers will get down to business, revealing who's a Guardian. Invincible's absence due to the Viltrumite War has left people vulnerable, and GUARDIANS OF THE GLOBE will answer the question, 'What's up on Earth?'" Tune in next week to find out who protects Earth while Invincible is away as the GUARDIANS OF THE GLOBE teasers continue! GUARDIANS OF THE GLOBE, a six-issue miniseries written by Robert Kirkman and Benito Cereno and drawn by Ransom Getty, will start its run in August 2010.

ReZourceman Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 (edited) A) Very sad that its a mini series. Maybe it will become an ongoing at some point. B) Awesome premise, that it catches us up on Earth. C) I hope Savage Dragon is in it. D) Ransom Getty seems very very talented, judging by this weeks teasers. E) Benito Cereno's Invincible mini series have been surprisingly great. This sounds excellent. Edit;. Interview on CBR. "Guardians" is set as a six issue miniseries right now, but is this something you'd consider expanding into an ongoing title? For now, it's just to coincide with "The Viltrumite War." We're going to do this series to show you what these characters are up to during that time period, but I would very much like to continue this. I could see it continuing as a series of miniseries where we could do one wherever we need to, or it could spin off into a regular series. We're keeping that open.

Dan_Dare Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 This is a better article on Guardians Happy to see the series. Definitely picking it up. Interesting quote It's going to be a real series, and we'll find out the real cast next week. There will be a lot of characters that people will recognize from "Invincible" and then a lot of new characters, too. We'll be bringing in new superheroes that are more international - characters from Australia, South Africa, Japan, Mexico and more. We're going to try and make the team live up to its "Guardians of the Globe" name. I like this. I reckon we'll see a bit of a JLA vibe there- a much bigger group than, comparably, The Avengers.
ReZourceman Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Only just seen this but its awesome. Both have valid points. (Obv Kirkman more though) :p
Happenstance Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 Covers for New Avengers #1, Avengers Academy #1 and Avengers #1:
Paj! Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 Wolverine and Spider-Man. On two teams? ... ... ... ...
ReZourceman Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 Knew I wasn't crazy! Bitches. Erm I don't like Romita, but that Avengers cover looks great. Hope its like that on the inside. Also Wonderman is AWESOME. Chris Evans has been offered Captain America.
Happenstance Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 Yeah I just read that, wouldnt mind it. I thought he was good in Fantastic Four. As for the Avengers covers, I love JRJR so I cant wait for his art in Avengers.
Dan_Dare Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 Evans is a good choice. He did a good turn in Sunshine too, which is a quality film. I'm liking Romita more too. I think just having his characters in isolation on those teasers was a bad choice because he clearly thrives on action and environments- Just look at some of the shots he uses in Kick-Ass for evidence of that. Spider-Man and Wolverine on two teams is just annoying. I love having them as Avengers (at least Spider-Man. Wolverine doesn't bring anything to the table much) but if I get two Avengers books, I want two teams. Ms Marvel in New Avengers pleases me. One of my favorites, a classic Avenger and a much needed dose of Estrogen- not to mention 'A class' power levels too.
Dante Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 Dont know if anyone here liked the Batman Beyond animated series but its getting its own 6 part comic in June Also SUPERMAN/BATMAN ANNUAL #4: Expanding on the hit TV show Batman Beyond, this year's annual travels to the not-so-distant future where an aged Bruce Wayne oversees a new Batman, and the fate of a certain Man of Steel is very much in question. Metropolis is becoming crime-free, as someone is ridding the city of its criminal element permanently. Now, Terry McGinnis must uncover what's happening in Superman's home and face a very old and vindictive nemesis!
ReZourceman Posted March 23, 2010 Posted March 23, 2010 She looks awesome. Invincible Returns is out in 2 weeks. So to put this in perspective, we will reach April the fourth month of the year, and will have only had 1 issue of Invincible. Fuck Haunt.
