Oh then maybe "Wicked"?

you got it, stile! Cyclone was a fan of Elphaba, and one scene has her gushing over Defying Gravity with her teammates.

I was thinking about whether to give it to you for Wizard of Oz, but it's quite a different bit of work than Wicked is...

Thanks Ibby and I am glad you didn't give it to me for Wizard of Oz. Yes Wicked has its roots there but it is very different - or so I have heard. I haven't ever seen Wicked, just know what it is about. My sister thinks it is one of the best musicals she has ever seen and she has seen a lot.

Mr Fantastic has some news for She-Hulk that he expects will make her quite upset, but to his surprise she is fine with it.
What is the news?

She can't transform back into Jennifer Walters

They're letting The Thing back into the team. Since Richard's team is secretly funded by Fantastic Four merchandise, there can't be five, so she's out.

I have a feeling Myg has the correct answer.




Yeah, and Wizard of Oz and Wicked aren't as related as, say, two Harry Potter books would be to one another. I liked Wicked quite a bit, a nice look into the "Wicked" Witch that we all saw and knew as a villain...

Correct. Take it away Myg.

I borrowed the book Wicked was based on from the library once but because of other things happening never read much of it. What I did read was pretty good and was a really interesting concept. Must borrow it again one day.

I do recommend it, a lot of the plot elements made sense and they give a very interesting alternate take on the original Wizard of Oz.

Name three Avengers who have gone into battle drunk

Carol Danvers, Tony Stark and Hank Pym?

I don't think I can make a better set of guesses than that!

Carol Danvers - Yes!
Tony Stark - YES!
Hank Pym - YES!


Believe it or not, there's at least 2 more


Over to you, Thoth!

Who were the others Andy?

Hercules entered battle drunk (a few times) and I believe Thor did too.

It actually wouldn't surprise me if more had, to be honest


When I was trying to figure out what to ask, I was coming across these issues where the hero is drunk or drinking - and they are Avengers!
It's an odd way to "mature" the book (though I found Carol's experience to be particularly ham-handed)

Heroes are people too! They're weak too!

Hey I usually have a drink with lunch and dinner - and still manage to work ok ... I'd like to see that without problematizing it

Now that I'm working from home, sometimes I have a small glass of white wine with lunch. And I've also been doing okay. Moderation is key

What is Quicksilver showing off to his Avengers colleagues that almost gets him into a fight with Hawkeye and Hercules, forcing Captain America to try and restrain him?

Some kind of battle trophy?

It's a West Coast Avengers Annual... I can see the cover... I'm going with a baseball?

Not a battle trophy nor a baseball. Although WCA was the first issue I pulled from a box, I knew Andy would go down that route. So, I switched it for a much earlier Avengers issue.

He was bragging about how many villains he has beaten up?

He was showing off something, but it wasn't about villains he'd faced.

Hmmmm.. you know my Marvel history so well, Thoth!


I'm going with ... Cap's shield
