Oh man, was Doom already revealed at the end of the symbiote arc in New Avengers? So this either demonstrates how stupid and forgetful I am or how long its been since this arc was resolved back in NA.

@brother129 - that would actually be pretty awesome if Slott brought him and Hank back in that manner. He'd have to explain why Lang couldn't have come back by himself though, but definitely doable.

@anonymous - I suppose I did forget to mention Doom. I just sort of assumed everyone knew already and it didn't seem important since it was revealed in New Avengers 36 months ago and the solicits for next issue and preview covers all mention / show Doom already.

@islandliberal - I know he's most likely alive, but I was just emphasizing the amount of people potentially killed in that issue, all of which seem like so much wasted potential if Slott simply discards them.

Hank is quite obviously not dead (he survived a nuclear bomb in #2), but the others probably are (I'll miss Thor Girl; she was fun; Trauma, I never cared about).

Hey Kirk! You forgot to mention who the big bad guy behind the symbiote attack in Mighty Avengers was. Maybe you didn't want it spoiled? I just thought that you got interested when you saw the end since that guy's already been scheming in a lot of other Marvel comics, like you yourself said in an earlier review. =)

Hi Kirk,

Not sure if you caught it, but in the previous Avengers issue, there's a coversation with Cassie Lang and Hank Pym about her dad possibly being alive after getting exploded because he could shrink himself into the microverse. I'm betting that's how lame ass Hank Pym survives getting incinerated. My other feelings on the issue: as much as I'm enjoying the story so far, I am getting tired of what appears to be Marvel's official policy of killing off young heroes with potential...whether they be New X-Men, the old New Warriors, and now promising Initiative recruits. Enough is enough already.

I think I hit the wrong button when I was moderating comments because I can't get Christine's comment to appear, so here's the quoted text:

Christine Said:

"Daredevil must have made fun of his haircut, kicked his dog and told him his mother dresses him funny because this is some messed up shit he's doing to Matt as of late."

Yeah, when a blind guy makes fun of your haircut and the way you dress you know it has to be bad... :)

Jokes aside, great reviews as always.

really, if slott is gonna make characters I really like keep dying, I don't wanna be on that roller coaster.
