Haha, gotta love the gimmicky Avengers cover.

Check the link for the previews: http://www.comicscontinuum.com/stories/0409/16/marvelfirsts.htm

Wow. That is some bad Bendis dialogue. Austen-worthy, maybe.

 

[MrAngryFace]

DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[karasu]

die Hawkeye die.

 

[Willco]

Yeah, I think Hawkeye is done for. But someone needs to get Bendis off this book until New Avengers or something, because this dialogue is horrible.

 

[Littleberu]

die Hawkeye die.

Well fuck you.

 

[karasu]

teehee

 

[Asbel]

i'm rooting for the witch just to spite busiek's run.

Me either. Bad way to display Cassaday's art.

As for the Avengers death, my money's on Yellow Jacket!

 

[Ryu]

My money is also on Yellow Jacket. These both coming out next week, no?

Yep, you bet. Amazing Spider-Man might be coming out too, which makes it a pretty sweet week.

SPOILERS!

Avengers #502:

Spoiler

Big battle with a Kree warship, Hawkeye dies. Dr. Strange shows up at the end in spirit form and IIRC he says magic's involved in all the sh*t that's coming down on their heads recently.

Astonishing X-Men #5:

Spoiler

Ord gets his ass kicked by Colossus, and Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D. show up at the end to break up the fight. I don't think much else happened in this issue. Shades of Morrison...

Oh, and Uncanny X-Men #449:

Spoiler

Sage = Wolverine in holographic disguise, so that's how "she" survives getting shot in the head by Viper. Oh, and it looks like Sage is going to betray the team to rejoin the Hellfire Club. Or something, I wasn't really paying attention.

Hey Spike

Spoiler

Sage has know Xavier too long IMO... I wouldn't be surprised if this is one of those long term undercover so I can keep an eye on them gigs

I dunno... Granted, I barely read the thing but on the last page

Spoiler

Sage is eavesdropping on Shaw and some other Hellfire members while they're scheming and sh*t, and IIRC I think he says something about finding "someone else interested," and I got the impression he knew she was there listening. And the final panel's a close-up on her smiling lips.

And the write-up for #452 in the solicits says the Hellfire Club's back and Sage has gone missing.

Spoiler

Well yeah but that doesn't change what I meant... this could be one of those ones where only like one person on the team knows she went undercover because..... your reactions had to be realistic, etc...

 

[Spike Spiegel]

Yeah, you're probably right. Sage sucks, though; she's a boring, uninteresting character. Let her go, I say.

 

[Willco]

Haha, I was right and Nomo was wrong!
