Congrats to the current Avengers book for being #5 this week. Without Spider-Man or Wolverine.
The bigger story though was Transformers being #1! But that's a different discussion! lol

...

MCU popularity I don't think has greatly increased comic book sales for any particular character. I even remember asking those running a few comic book shops if that was the case and the answer was,...

Yeah,I never liked that when Cap questions Tony about including Wolverine stating that Wolvie is a killer, Tony quips that he's a 'samurai warrior' and Cap just drops it.

Well said and agreed.

The current line-up I believe are Sam Wilson Captain America, Thor, Scarlet Witch, Vision, Captain Marvel, Iron Man... and maybe Black Panther?

You know, I really don't know when someone started tracking sales outside of the companies themselves! Iirc, aren't they usually just how many books a store orders and not how many that actually...

That would be interesting!

Lol By who?

The end of that first paragraph has been said of other teams such as the Justice League. That's why some writers focused on the other characters more such as Martian Manhunter, Plastic Man,etc.
...

Yes. We all should.

Hmm... interesting choice. I'd call her Phoenix though. You know, cause it sounds cooler.

I think you can have A Listers and good writing. Shoot for the stars! lol

Is he!? Ok. Not sure why in the MCU he would rank above other more experienced heroes but alright.

Did any of these sell as well as Bendis' Avengers though?

You have plenty of people here to fight then lol Good luck!

Was it? I really don't know. Is there an article about it?

Been 20 years since writer Brian Michael Bendis asked a rather obvious question to the then powers-that-be at Marvel, "Why aren't your 2 most popular characters on your flagship team book!?"...

Interesting. I'm unsure if you mean the entire team of Alpha Flight or New Mutants? Kind of doubt it but just checking as none of the other teams - except maybe X-MEN - had their whole team in the...

Oh,ok. Thanks. I do not remember a book called Threshold.
Yeah, there were a lot of new characters for that.

I know Martian Manhunter has typically been a male but his race are shapeshifters so, therefore, androgynous.

Enjoyed how it makes what could easily be a commonplace superhero(ine) vs. super villain fight look and feel epic.

To echo others, the narration was a bit too much on a lot of pages. Would like...

Someone already mentioned the JL Task Force from the 90's. This New 52 team was similar:

Namor the Sub-Mariner
Sunfire
Quicksilver
Ghost Rider
The Beast
Rocket Raccoon
Valeria Richards
All of them are arrogant in their own ways and a little hot tempered!

Superwoman-Lois Lane. Know they've given her powers in the past but don't believe she's ever been on the team.
Batman- Jim Gordon How many read the run where he was wearing a "Bunny" bat suit!? ...

Hmm...I don't think it counts as an "urban myth" more than simply misinformation but here goes:
The popular phrase "jump the shark" took many to believe the scene from an episode of the t.v. show...
