sorry it didnt make sense, I had been out in the sun for several hours and just came in to check news from San Diego.... I just needed some water and a lie down.

Oh balls. They didn't have those when I checked less than an hour after you posted.

I already have that Hand but I need the Hydra and Shield guys.

Is this legit? And would we really have to wait until 2016? The line could well be dead by then.

It's already 3:49 here in central time zone. So do they mean 3:00 in another time zone?

ukmu · 07-26-2014, 01:48 PM

nice poster!!!!

i guess i am gonna need more ultrons now....

also, the vision is in the upper left corner!!!

@EN SABAH...they are in pacific time there...

Relena Warcraft · 07-26-2014, 01:54 PM

Gee, I bet you'll never guess who I voted for. :P

En Sabah Nerd · 07-26-2014, 01:59 PM

Well I voted anyway, I didn't see anything about specific candidates so I threw in one extra.
Okay: rant time. Who the hell thought it was a good idea to make Angela Thor's sister?! Why did they even bother acquiring this character from Image, including keeping her name and appearance, if it's clear they just wanted to make something entirely new out of it. This'd be comparable to if Walt Simonson (who is currently working for IDW) took Beta-Ray Bill with him to their comics, same name and appearance, and completely reworked his origin and character development to the point of being a stranger to the original concept. Why not just make a new character if it's clear you wanted to make a new character, did they think that because Angela existed before in Spawn that Spawn fans would flock to Marvel, if that was the plan they failed because it didn't work out. I'm a Spawn fan, and a marvel fan, so when I heard Angela was coming to Marvel I thought it was a neat way to bring back a dead character for new stories, not butcher the concept of the character I already knew. I suppose if Bill Willingham ever moves to Marvel from Vertigo, he'll bring Bigby from Fables, but instead of being the big bad wolf, he'll just be a werewolf, and Werewolf by Night's cousin, but also Wolverine's long lost brother-in-law. well that's enough ranting, I'm done.

Strange616 · 07-26-2014, 02:02 PM

Already have Vision, but I'll be voting for a new one, along with Dormammu and Gamora! Can't wait to see the results!

spade · 07-26-2014, 02:07 PM

Can we vote for anyone because I have some favorites I want over that list of characters.

Unfortunately you have to pick from their list.

bmorr · 07-26-2014, 02:20 PM

id vote, but i dont use twitter or understand why it exists.

spade · 07-26-2014, 02:25 PM

Ha! So I voted Triton and Living Laser. honestly I'd be satisfied with anyone besides armor spider man 90 's and the new captain marvel. But you know damn well they are going to make armor spider-man anyway.

Relena Warcraft · 07-26-2014, 02:30 PM

Hey now.... what do you have against Carol Danvers, hmmmm?

*cracks knuckles*

1. Her Ms. Marvel look from the 70/80/00s is her best and definitive look and I'm happy with that figure.
2. We have a good version of her in the original Ms. Marvel costume.
3. Most importantly we have so many characters that haven't been reproduce that I see no reason for another version of her if it means someone else doesn't get produce. Again point #1, we have the definitive look of the character.

Snowflakian · 07-26-2014, 03:20 PM

Danvers Captain Marvel all the way!

Though the name is a demotion to her, I'm digging the update.

En Sabah Nerd · 07-26-2014, 03:40 PM

Hey don't insult Mar-Vell. He was one of the best, and his death is arguably the most significant comic death ever (which made his very brief resurrection very awkward). Any character should be honored to call themselves Captain Marvel.

Relena Warcraft · 07-26-2014, 03:47 PM

Which is why Carol was so hesitant to take on the name.

I was never that fond of Monica as Captain Marvel. Didn't really make sense for someone whose power is as cool as turning into light to give herself such a generic name. Photon and Spectrum were much better choices for her. It always felt like it was Marvel just trying to reclaim the trademark.
