We'll see (don't call it AoA though - that's indelibly locked to Age of Apocalypse in my head ). After the way Livewires, new-Scorpion, etc disappeared or nearly so after their first appearances; I'm not holding my breath.

quote:Originally posted by Ultra Jorge: Also it shows Namorita calling her mom. I wonder if they are going to retcon Nita being a clone of hers?
Namorita gestated in Namora's womb for X months (don't want to say nine without checking), grew up relatively normally (as opposed to accelerated aging) and didn't know she literally had no father for yoinks. She wasn't grown/aged to adulthood in Cloning Machine X, and didn't have Namora's memories Ben Reilly-style. Why WOULDN'T she have called Aquaria her mum?
And, on the other thing, given that both Namor and Namora are sterile (ergo the need for cloning in the first place), would any genetic relationship actually matter in the first place? The taboo exists to prevent inbreeding, after all.

I wonder how Namora being back will affect Civil War, Namor, etc? I hope we get Nita back somehow.
Anyways, this last issue? Man I gotta say it was a bit confusing.
They really didn't want to keep it simple, huh? Woo is now the what??? This mini may have had more retcons than any other one. So anyways I am ready for a regular series. It was fun.

I loved it. Didn't see the big reveal coming either.
There were plenty of retcons, true, but when you're dealing with characters this old and this minor, you can get away with it. Proof that a retcon can be a good thing after all.

They're doing a hardcover first with the first appearances of the Yellow Claw (and Jimmy Woo - same story), Venus, Marvel Boy, Human Robot, Namora and Gorilla Man thrown in

I just can't wait for the "Agents of Atlas vs. Nextwave, Agents of H.A.T.E." crossover mini! It'd be worth it just for the Machine Man/ Human Robot stretchy-limbed throwdown!

What's the deal with "Marvel Adventures"? It's a more kid friendly line in its own universe right?

More kid-friendly line, yes, but there's no "universe" - each MAdv title is completely independent of the others (so MAdvSpidey Spider-Man is no more the same as MAdvAvengers Spider-Man than he's the same as MU Spider-Man or UltU Spider-Man), and there are strict limits on reuse of stuff like minor characters between issues of the same series.
