I got this title strictly because of the buzz here at LW. It's a fun book, Slott knows we're all here for the humour. Got to say the art bugged me. I'll stick aroud for a bit to see how it goes.
Just spouting off.

#2's out... SPOILER SPACE SPOILER SPACE SPOILER SPACE SPOILER SPACE SPOILER SPACE ... and Hawkeye's returned to his own time. Awww. And Jen's arrested by the TVA for her 'time crime'. Slott's not wasting any time, sending his lead off into exotic locales, is he? Fine with me. She-Hulk and Man-Wolf-- wonder what their hyphenated progeny might be called  ?

Sad, to see Clint go. Slott writes an awesome Hawkeye! My first issue of Avengers ever Clint was reading Playboy. I mean how cool was that at age 8! He was a favorite ever since!

I read # 2!
I was devestated to see Clint "blink out"-- but I love the possible out he now has-- half of the letter Jen wrote him. Can't wait to see when/if this is picked up.
Horrified at the ending-- but what a cool set-up for next issue's 100-page spectacular!
Words cannot express how excited I'll be to get SHE-HULK # 3/100 next month!! (!!!!!!)
Hmmm... what IS Andy's secret mission..?

p.s.: Don't get me wrong, I *loved* it, but # 2 held only ONE "bwah-ha-ha" LOL moment for me-- and it was on the letter's page, when the editor asks they people stop sending in requests to call the page "SHE-MAIL".  The letter's page is an area where Marvel walks all over DC.

Also, it occured to me last night that Bobillo's art reminds me very much of Terry Moore on STRANGERS IN PARADISE.

The title just isn't as funny or inventive since the relaunch. I'll stick with it a bit longer, but I'm not loving this title anymore.
And what was with those giant arrows Hawkeye fired at the robot?? Were those his "Pym arrows" or somtehing?

Ah, Knight Man and Dr. Rocket -- we hardly knew ye... (or we did and I just don't remember...)
That cliffhanger's got me all a'tingle though -- who could it be? All signs seem to point toward Mockingbird, but I expect it'll be someone more obscure -- Two-Gun Kid?? Teen Tony? Dr. Druid would be funny, though I don't imagine Jen would want to rescue him.

SHE-HULK 2 #3 Hmmm-- what is the original cosmic trial featuring witnesses alive and dead, taken from time and space? Probably a play, but I'm not sure. I enjoyed who filled the role of counsel for the defense. Anyway, I liked the part of this issue that featured characters like Wyatt Wingfoot and a plethora of AVENGERS, and would've welcomed more testimony. But SHE-HULK moves at a clip, so it's on to what's next.
What's next being the acquisition of a new supporting cast member. A former Avenger... There's at least one character mentioned in a solicit for an upcoming issue that *could* fit the bill, but I don't think that necessarily means that that's who was being held in the TVA's 'bubble cells' (between these and the 'Big House', I think Dan Slotts should consider prison design as a sideline...).

Guess what Two-Gun Kid's occupation in his civilian identity was?
(When was TGK an Avenger?)

Wasn't he a lawyer? I think he was made an honorary member when he and Hawkeye were hanging out together.
Say, whatever happened to Wyatt Wingfoot anyway?

Mockingbird is my guess as well. She did kill the Phantom Stranger back in time after he drugged and raped her. TGK was a lawyer and an honorary member. TGK hung out with Hawkeye in the 20th century for a while and was mad a honorary member. Both Two Gun or Mockinbird would rock IMO!!!Two Gun would be less controversial though.

Totally restored my faith after my initial ennui with the first two issues of the relaunch. Have I mentioned how much I love Amanda Conner??? I'd love to see her on this book regularly, hint-hint. Sorry, Bobo. And the Hulk's testimony choked me up AND made me LOL. Slott is the man.

It definately had a feel of that northern exposure episode where the "chris-ness" of chris saved him from prison for parole violation. And i am sure that wasn't the first time that particular way out has been used.
Not a bad story at all. Still wish they had used it to bring back Clint. Every company should have one iconic character that stands out over time as the real pain in the ass that you love.
Damn you, you kids! Get off my lawn or I'm callin' tha cops!
Something pithy!

Loved this issue! Dan Slott GETS my Avengers! btw, the Avengers he had were from my favorite era! Hawkeye, Shulkie, Starfox, Captain Marvel(Monica), Hercules! Those were the days! First time Dan used the alter ego thing and I didn't get sick of it. It was smart and well done. Very good issue. Loved the 4th wall comment on the last page. Dan Slott needs to write the Champions (aka old happy Avengers not dark Bendis New Avengers).

Oh my GOSH, how I enjoyed this issue!! I'm going to try to avoid upcoming solicits, but I too suspect Mockingbird will be returning. Originally posted by Thriftshop Debutante:

Nah, i wouldn't wanna live by that credo. I live more by what the nurse said in the original version of rear window.
"we were both misfits before we met. We fell in love, married, and now we are misfits together..."
Suits me to a T.
