And the magic stupidity of Marvel's writers, the drug he drank...made him a costume too.
Really? Really?!?

That's as stupid as Scott Lobdell writing Bucky turning into a Hulk...and his bionic arm hulking out right along with him.

I know comic book writers are not scientists, but would it have killed them to have handed this guy a costume? Or even a holographic device instead so it's an instant thing?

He COULD be the costume. Osborn makes some wack stuff, god knows what it does. All I know he is not human under the mask, at all. Heck I COULD be wrong, I haven't read the comic, it COULD be holographic too. But I still think it is a drug of sorts.

I love the whole Dark Avengers thing...and Tiberius thanks for explaining that to me...that whole Decapitator thing sounds awesome as fuck...It would be great if we got a figure of him in MU scale. We did get that Gargan Spidey though, I guess it wouldn't be too much of a reach to make that fella.

Tiberius · 11-12-2011, 10:39 PM

Not ganna lie...be a hard figure to get from Hasbro. Be a badass custom though.

"Ai Apaec is a god of sky of the Moche people."

I think it will take more than a hologram to compress all that into a 6 armed Spider-Man.

No..he goes from being a drider (a man/spider combo like a centaur) to drinking a vial of stuff to instantly looking like the Doppelganger creature last shown in the carnage miniseries.

Really, why not just get Carnage? It would be SO much better to have Carnage!

Marvel has plans for Carnage. Carnage is also to hard to control. Some one posted a link to a quick read about these new Dark Avengers and why they would work. If Osborn wanted some one he couldn't control and run away and kill people, he would of kept Bullseye...if he wasn't dead of course. I'm not sure if you read the little blog piece, I can find it of you want?

It's all camera angle. Like how they made Sly Stallone 6'2" in Rocky, lol.

Sure would be a bad ass custom though.............With all the Halloween stuff on clearance and all...........big spiders............

Tiberius · 11-12-2011, 10:44 PM

a Lord of the Rings Shelob[sp?] could work?

Yeah- Carnage USA starts in December- I cant wait! I never liked the character before the last miniseries but now I'm a fan.
Incredible artwork too!

The thing is, the only one that ever beat Cletus (besides the Sentry) was Spidey...and now that his Spider Sense is gone, he'd be toast in minutes...

Just bought half of them!:

Here's hoping to a MODOK figure soon. (And my local toy shop restocking with newer figures!)

Such a nice image! I haven't seen one of these in person yet...

All I know is that I need to make, or get some one to make me a 6 armed Spider-guy. That I need to buy 2 Scarlet Witches, one to keep normal, another to make into Toxic Doxie. I really want this new Hawkeye, who happens to be Trickshot, which is AWSOME, maybe make him, somehow, or get you too

. Ms Marvel will be easy enough, I think. Skaar, check, Ragnarok, check, Gorgon, check. Osborn...just got to wait and seeeeeeeeee.

GOOD! Maybe I'll stat reading that book again- the art has been sucking hard in Spider Island so I did not bother reading it...
which really says something, considering my roommmate bought all that I can read it for free!

Again, costumed people in that had costumes that grew extra arms...assinine.

No, I need the...er...Anniversary version(?)
The one with the three little masks, not the "lives in a swamp" POC version.

I need the badass ninja killer, not the "Swamp People" version.
