Avengers is Bendis' until he decides otherwise, and then he'll likely have a big say in who takes over. I can't see Slott fitting into that.

Ben Grimm's a great character, but I find myself wondering if anyone can make him work for long outside the FF. We'll see soon enough.

Hey the Avengers do have an editor! Tom Brevoort? hahahaha. We know he has nothing to do with this Avengers. A couple years ago Tom was on top...now? He seems to be a middle man cause his books certainly are starting to look more like the MK line. In any case...Joe Casey is working on Iron Man hopefully he may get Avengers in the future. Who knows it might be David Mack...when Echo joins! frown

In today's market a Thing solo series is risky. His last series was successful but it spun out of Secret Wars as well as Byrne's FF...when Byrne was BIG and comics sold like hotcakes so you may be right. If I was Marvel I would stick with the Thing series just in case. smile

LASH, love the Ambush Bug icon!!!

From Marvel's JAUNARY SOLICITS...


THING #3
Written by DAN SLOTT
Pencils & Cover by ANDREA DI VITO
"Fun N' Games" Pt. 3 (Conclusion)
The Thing vs. Hulks? When you're on "The Deadliest Place on Earth" anything can happen-as long as it's guaranteed to get you killed! It's more Fun N' Games with Nighthawk, Constrictor, and Tony Stark.
32 PGS./T+ SUGGESTED FOR TEENS AND UP...$2.99



Nighthawk? Yep, Dan Slott rawks.

Yeah I bet Nighthawk will continue be the source of jokes. Yet I don't mind. I like him better as a lame hero than a real hero. smile

But give me the latin lover swashbuckler that is a real hero...El Aguila! Now that's a man! wink

Put me next to the other Slott fans - I think he is great. I just wish Marvel is getting behind She-Hulk vol.2. They should have put a SHE-HULK preview in the back of all their books instead of that retarded NICK FURY AND THE HOWLING COMMANDOS garbage.

Retarded Howling Commandos by Legion god Keith Giffen??? I'm pupmed about Howling Commandos! I want a cartoon and video game asap!

Maybe She-Hulk will join New Avengers which is super hot (though I hate it!). That will give her title a push I hope.

btw, didn't She-Hulk #1 come out today? Must find that thread.

Re: Thing. He is to the FF what Wolverine is to the X-Men.

Honestly, Thing is much cooler than the rest of the FF.

What did everyone think of SHE-HULK #1? I loved it. There were a couple jokes that I found very funny and I loved the use of some old Walt Simonson characters (I don't want to be specific in case this is spoiling anything for any of you).

The art looked a little rougher than usual.? The lines and the color gradient edges were a little jagged. I think it was mediocre coloring. Just a minor gripe.

I bought my first AVENGERS comic today since that wretched "Disassembled" crapfest, AVENGERS THE INITIATIVE # 1.

I bought it for one and only one reason: Slott listed on the cover as writer.

I'm concerned that not even Slott could make me like what THE AVENGERS have become... This better not freakin' suck!

You might be one of the few who did that.

I'm figuring most people bought it because it spins out of Civil War.

I thought is was pretty decent. I don't think I've read an Avengers comic since Steve Epting was penciller, so I can't tell anymore if someone's out of character.

I've even dropped Slott's She-Hulk. Marvel just doesn't do it for me anymore.
