Avengers #10

I was going to do a review in Great One speak, but I broke character mid-thread so fuck it. I'll do nonsense rambly instead.

So they're sticking with the whole 'The Protector' name for Marvel Boy, eh? Dumb... geez, the whole recap page is full of dumb, why do people settle for this crap? Namor, Rulk, fish, blah blah blah... Spider-Woman's "I know, right?" just killed the comic for me... OMG JRjr, are those supposed to be Sentinels? Did Cat-Beast just morph into the Wolfman? Gawddamn Romita, what the hell man? The Iron Fist/Ant-Man scene wouldn't have been as bad if their previous meeting hadn't been pointed out in-thread, it also wouldn't have been as bad if Danny was wearing his real costume and if O'Grady was still in his original IAM suit. Why did Marvel ditch the IAM suit anyway? It was a great costume, stupid Marvel... wow that mom and dad page was tedious... okay, Ben's "Are we there yet?" was a good panel... bwahahahahaha Bendis and all of Marvel editorial don't know the difference between Roswell and Area 51... :lol:

... seriously, what a bunch of stupid fucks... :lol:

...

... seriously, so dumb...

Image United was so much better than this.

You only listed 3 and they were all published by Warner Brothers and Disney you sucker of the corporate teat, you.

My 20+ years worth of creator owned and self-published comics buying habits make me exempt from questions of my purchasing habits in any given week, but if you must know I did order a copy of Daniel Clowes' 20th Century Eightball yesterday.

I always forget to list The Boys.

I reckon 80% of posters on here buy less creator-owned books than me.

That's because 79% of posters here don't ready any comics at all.

This is true, but still, I buy more creator-owneds than most.

Review by Jude Terror
"The Great One Does It Again"

The Great One Brian Bendis has been turning marvel's tin cans into gold for ten years, and he's still doing it with this issue. Winning. All the trolls and losers trying to judge him are just jealous. His writing functions on a different level, one that is not a part of this terrestrial realm. Vatican assasin editors may have tried to take money away from Bendis's family by mixing up the infinity gem colors, but Bendis uses tiger blood instead of ink on his scripts. Um, yeah. Winning. He's like a rock star from Mars. So sorry, Haim Brevoort, you can't turn Bendis's awesome infinity gems story into your selfish personal exit strategy. Oh no, there's snappy dialog in the house, we're all gonna die! Haters are picking a fight with a warlock here, and anyone who rated this comic below a 9 can apologize, publicly, while licking The Great One's feet. Bendis's Avengers run is epic, man. The run he's had makes Busiek, Thomas, Stern, and Lee look like droopy-eyed armless children. Yeah, The Great One is on a drug, it's called Brian Bendis. It's not available, because if you take it, you'll die. Your children will weep over your exploded body.
