Agree to disagree I guess.

No no i didnt mean it jacked the story i meant that what HAPPENED was jacked up for erik. Losing his family that way, the tragedy it brought to him...the situation was jacked up, Fictional or not. Thats what i meant.

I love how he looks up towards the heavens and says "Is that what I am? Is this what you want me to be?"

I REALLY hope that the next phase the big bad will be Kang.

I hope its galactus. Hell galactus AND kang!

Imagine if all internet disagreements went like this.

It'd be really amazing or really dull.

Did you order from walgreens.com? If so, when did you place your order? I placed mine on Friday, Aug 10. My purchase history doesn't indicate it's even shipped yet. Not complaining, just curious. I've never ordered online from walgreens before. I'm super stoked to get this guy.

yeapm ordered online, because waiting for him to appear here in south florida... well he probably wouldn't have arrived til next year more than likely. as for your order. i did hear they literally sold out of him and waiting on another big supply of them to come in.

i will warn you. the box on one of them came pretty crappy.

So I just read a review on the new MADROX figure on another site.
From What I saw of the HASBRO panel, I was lead to believe that the 90's X-factor team would be made eventually. So is it possible the X-men BAF will be Strong Guy? I know its just opinion but isn't it likely its Guido?

[Tim]

Yeah I think the baf most likely will be strong guy

[kylactus]

He has been hinted at for like 2 years now, so yeah I’d expect him soon.

I don't know, I mean, what can Kang really do that Thanos hasn't already done? The only thing you could really do to move up is Galactus. Though, honestly, after Thanos' defeat, I think they should ease back on having some big crossover event again for another ten years.

Have Phase 4 just be the aftermath and the new wave of heroes, Phase 5 builds up those characters, and then Phase 6 ends with Secret Wars.

Characters in the MCU bleed and get gravely injured. Thor lost an eye.

Superman will know success in the movies when they decide to limit his powers to just flight and superstrength.

See, I can't agree with this at all. Superman's powerset really isn't that rare in comic books. There's specific things he can do, like ice breath and heat vision that are kinda unique to him, but superheroes that can fly and have super strength are a dime a dozen in comic books.

The real issue, and what many people claim makes Superman "boring" is his personality. He's literally too good. He doesn't have the crippling character flaws that characters like Batman or Spider-Man have and that works against the character, because how do you write a character that is already perfect and give them any meaningful character development or arc that would make them interesting while still having him be Superman?

I will say that the most interesting Superman stories I've read are the ones where you see the effect he has on others. Where he kinda comes down to humanity's level to connect with them on a personal level.

One of my favorite scans of Superman, and the one that made me really love him as a character is where there's a woman who's about to jump off of a building and Superman goes up simply to talk with her. The woman is pretty much sure that she isn't important, yet he sits with her the entire night just to give her somebody to vent to. In this moment, Superman doesn't look like a god or a superhero, he really does look like a long lost friend who's trying to help somebody in their time of need. Somebody who's so dedicated to helping others reach their full potential, and that perfectly embodies what Superman is to me. It's genuinely one of the most heartwarming things in comic books that I've ever read.
