Marvel's Civil War
So issue one has been out for a couple of days, has anyone else been reading? What do you think about it so far? What do you think is going to happen?
Just get the ball rolling here people... I know I'm not the only person here interested in this story. |
Quote:
Joe Quesda is going to end up apologising for it the way he did with "The Other", the way he did with "House Of M", the way he's going to do with "Onslaught Reborn"... It's not a pretty pattern. |
I'll most likely pick this up, considering that my favorite Marvel hero, Spider-Man, is going to be at the forefront of a company-wide storyline.
And I don't care what people will say about this; it's definitely going to be better than Marvel Zombies (I know that's not saying much from a guy who liked the "Spider-Clone" saga, making me one in about 2 or 3 in the world :P ) That all aside, I'd love to hear what people think about Spidey's new costume. I like it; it's nifty that he can mentally change back to his original duds with it. The new abilities are quite cool. |
Civil War definitely is better than Zombies, which was a load of rubbish in retrospecitve. I wouldn't even dream of comparing this to Marvel Zombies.
Anyways, I still hate Peter's new looks and definitely appreciate the retcon-possibility they've already given us. The new costume is too plain for me, especially in the head area. The Spider-Web-pattern we all know was definitely better. And I wonder what will become of Tony when this is all over. |

And in relation to the new coustume, it's s*it, and is intended to be s*it beyond it's purpose of being nothing more than a plot point. As for changing to his civilian clothing with mental powers...big whoop, Superman did that with his electric blue coustume in 1997, another case of sadass effort from a weaker DC at the time. |

There's probably a reason why Tony is having Spider-Man wear the suit, we'll just have to see. BTW I'm actually liking Civil War, I hope Mark Millar doesn't rush this like how IC was rushed at the end.

So far, the thing I like most about Civil War are all the fake banners fans have been making.
The people in this thread went crazy. Some of em are gold. http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=7339 |

I love the Deadpool one. :lol:
|
|
I have the books that the picture in the one Dr. Spengler has. It's from the "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark" series.
|
Yeah, I've got the collected edition. Fond memories of scarring my childhood forever.
|
In retrospect though...not so scary...:P
EDIT: Though this pic is... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...eakinScary.jpg |
Jesus jumpin christ, Jester, that was unexpected. i was speed scrolling and reading what you had typed right as the image just loaded up at once.
Anyways, on a side note to this Civil War ****. I'm interested. Specifically in the Wolverine series going with it, mostly cause Humberto Ramos is drawing it. I dig my Wolverine, and I ****ing adore Ramos. its like Randal Graves'd say "its like hermaphradidic porn, the best of both worlds." |
These are awesome:

Spoiler:
There you go Barkworm. (Thanks to Anarky fo helping me get the issue) |
Spoiler:
|
Yeah, I have a friend who doesn't look at comics at all. He was actually interested in this issue and absolutely loved it. We both pretty much bashed Iron Man after reading this. We're both with Captain America on this. We have another friend who likes to play devil's advocate, so he's sort of siding with Iron Man on this issue.
This series will definitely be one of Marvel's best. Anyway, go Cap! |
Thanks Jester!

ok afther rereading the spidey road to civil war and issue 1 i want to know now what is stark up to in the spidey RCW he's against the registerion act payed a old cold war villian to try to kill him and peter and now volnteared to hunt down one of his oldest friend and the argonaut project what iis his angle

Wow, Noddy, you need to learn about punctuation. Seriously, that was one illegible blurb.
Anyways, Frontline #1 came out on Wednesday and there's three stories in it. Two are more or less about Spider-Man and his dilemma and one's about Stamford. I liked the first, because it dealt with journalists and reporters which finally shifts the focus away from the heroes and villains and shows us some more real world. Speedball's story's kinda nonsensical, but I wonder where it will lead. The last story is damned awesome. That poem's so bloody cool and the last phrase is more than awesome. Get it, people. You must. |
Wasn't Speedball killed?

Check it out folks...it's the trailer for Civil War. Basically recaping it for those that don't read every Civil War comic. Also includes a preview of Civil War #2 which comes out on wednesday:

So far from what I've been able to read its been pretty good, I love how Mike Millar is writting it, but I dont care for any of the books that have led up to the civil war mini.
|
I wonder how many people will now drop certian comics based on the events of civil war 2.
|
Just read Civil War 2....Now thru all this Civil War stuff my main thing is wondering what J. Jonah Jamison's reaction would be to Peter revealing that he's Spider-man...... And what's his reaction?
Spoiler:
|
Aside from making Iron Man a total manipulitive badass, this is the second most redemable aspect of this storyline (let's see how long this lasts before a random cosmic enforcer like Strange blanks everybodie's memory), Quesdas had been constantly preaching how Spidey needed a fresher direction, and all he had to do was go ahead with a public unmasking in the first place, sparing us "The Other".
|
I'm pretty sure MP means Mark Millar.
|
Wow... can't believe
Spoiler:
I dunno what further to say... we're only two issues into this series, and so much has already happened! |

And here's something interesting.. Wikipedia has a list of who's on what side: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_W...9#Taking_Sides |
And people the reason you do not regiser
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...scaled_800.jpg hopefuly............down the line...........Cap give's one frank castle a shield class rail gun to take care of a armored no good pinko commie for putting a friend directly in harm's way. |

Okay, so I do smell a retcon here. Also, what annoys me a lot, is that Peter just overdid it. I mean Spoiler:
It just felt like you bring a dozen of cows when you say "I'm going to get some milk." |
God I hate what they did to Venom right there. Whats with giving him tiny eyes in the middle of big eyes.
|
Is that Mac Gargan? That might be an explanation.
|
Yeah, it's Gargan. Brock's supposed to be dead after a suicide, but no body was seen, so it's convieniantly up in the air. I think Gargan makes for a better host, he's more familiar to Spidey's history than Brock initially was (the 90's series got Brock right there also, keeping him as a reccuring character way beforethe Symbiote merged with him)
