Fetishists, rejoice!
It's probably his Bizarro Magnum Opus, next to Ultimatum.
It's brainless, mindless fun. So-bad-it's-good-fun. This is Loeb you're talking about. Throw logic out of the window. Expect high levels of absurd histrionics to worse (anybody remember Superman beating Darkseid into space ranting about how Supergirl would never eat an APPLE PIE again? Or Ultimate Hank Pym yelling "That makes me... the [chameleon sting]er!!!" when he decapitates Ultimate Ultron?). And Red Hulk hadn't even showed up, himself, in any other Marvel title. The entire thing had that vibe of "nobody is going to ride with whatever is hapenning in this book" all the time. It was really contained to the red Hulk book and Incredible Hulk books and that was it.
It's funny and sad that not even my favorite YJers/Titans, Superboy and Kid Flash, couldn't renew my interest in the title. On the bright side, I have high hopes for the upcoming Superboy series because Jeff Lemire's take on the Atom is kicking seven degrees of butt (and I'm looking forward to the Superboy/Kid Flash race). Need I mention the second Flash title?
Good times to be an YJ fan right now, even if the team itself is defunct.
It was pretty God-awful. And yes. Only when Hulk goes cosmic again, will his stories be good. Seriously, some kind of alien force needs to destroy the Earth and get it over with. Then, all would be cool in the universe.
It wasn't any good. There's a whooole issue just flashbacking Ross' entire life. He says he's so sorry, he's so incredibly sorry, his life is filled with sin, blah blah blah... then culminates the issue toppling the American government.
And She-Rulk is Betty.
Damn! How could I forget that?
Oh yeah, repressed memories.
Red Hulk was a character taken out of nowhere because one of this generation's most prolific authors (sales don't lie!) wanted a character who could beat the [parasitic bomb] out of the entire Marvel Universe and kept his identity a mystery for 20+ issues in which Red Hulk was an ass to basically everybody and beat everybody up in a coup with assorted Marvel villains to take over the US Government. Then it was revealed he's General Thunderbolt Ross, the army-guy who's always chasing Hulk around for as long as he is alive.
...Red Hulk has been confirmed by Quesada and Loeb to join the Avengers.
...MY HEAD IS FULL OFF WHAT THE [tornado fang]
I have no argument with that, it would've been easier to accept getting rid of the marriage in a believable way. Even JMS smelled bull-[parasitic bomb] when Joey Q wanted to use "magic" as his excuse, I even wonder if JMS really wrote it of if Quesada did using his name, I wouldn't be surprised.
Pretty much, and Marvel Adventures while it was still around. But Joey Q's too obsessed with a single Spidey he forgot there's an entire generation of fans who grew up with a married Spidey, and that retconning the marriage out would horribly split the fanbase.
There is still the New York Comic Con I bet they will reveal more there.
Because it had gotten stale, it had gotten limited due to marriage and other trappings of the character."
Hah I was thinking that too. Doom can be Bison. Both are leaders of their own empire/country
Chun-li, Dr. Doom, Super Skrull, and Trish I am having trouble connecting.
It doesn't have to be anything you want with the ring. They just need a few constructs for each.
You know how a GL game would work? If they managed to limit the gameplay on PURPOSE. Imagine a KOTOR-like RPG, with the Corps as party members, being able to use different constructs as skills and willpower upgrades (or maybe even equippable rings of different colors) with energy charge being chosen in stats menus. You choose to have this much ring energy to charge your shields, this much to fight, this much to fly... Imagine facing Manhunters as main enemies, being able to fly as a method of transportation and dislocation without having it be an action-based gameplay. An action-based GL wouldn't work at all, unless they had him just shooting little beams out of his ring. If he was grounded, maybe they could work in some combos with several different kinds of constructs, but flying, PLUS different constructs? No. Although to be honest, it'd be perfect to have those end-of-bossfight QTE sequences where you press a few buttons and make some awesome huge constructs appear to finish off the enemies.
A truly good Green Lantern game would be something VERY tough to make. Heck, if it had to be action, without limiting the gameplay, I daresay it'd be tougher to make than a Superman game. Which is already something VERY hard to make due to the versatibility of the hero, in my opinion.
Spidey's probably not gonna be in it, so just SUCCUMB TO THE CAP SIDE.
I kinda agree with the guy on one thing. Watchmen doesn't need a sequel. It's probably the one comic book that needs a sequel THE LEAST. It was made during the Cold War, with a Cold War message. It's meant to stay in that time, and still be relevant today. A sequel would [tornado fang] it up. That, and Alan Moore just plain HATES DC.
Also, what would he do with the Watchmen rights? Prevent them from making sequels? OH RIGHT, he would have had to make a sequel to obtain them in the first place. Alan doesn't even like Watchmen anymore, due to the importance DC placed upon it, and the way it's been popularized as a movie. So let the cranky old man in the woods be alone with his Glycon worship.
It's a movie property. No matter how good it is, it'll still be Tron outfit Hal Jordan, with Deadpool's face. I'll be waiting for an actual good game adaptation of GL, seeing as his comic is rising in popularity. Maybe we'll get it someday.
You mean Alpha 2, right?
TBPH, I would like to see some of the EX characters return, though. EX as a whole is very underrated and was quite a fun little series.
Great on NPH's Spidey. And when it comes to WB Interactive Studios games, what's their track record with games? Track record of a company says EVERYTHING about how something turns out. Let's see...

...oh God. We're [tornado fang]'d.
