Thanks for the posts, Mace.

Oddly enough, that panel pretty much says everything that is wrong about the handling of Blue Marvel. It's not just the fact that Reed is once again condescending to...

Some great points here. Superman being weaker than other heroes is a more or less a recent development. In most cases, writers had to go to pretty good lengths to show that Superman wasn't the top...

I appreciate that Ewing uses him, but this isn't about token appearances. How Adam is used matters. That's basically the entire premise of Blue Marvel's existence. If Superman was Black, few people...

Well, the bigger problem here is that Grevioux gave Adam that ridiculous weakness to Neutronium. The parallel to Superman only really works when the character gets true Superman showcasing. Adam...

Just in case you need more encouragement to read Resurrection of Magneto #4 with Blue Marvel and Storm working alongside the Master of Magnetism, here's a snapshot of Adam deploying his antimatter...

But, but, but ... I need everyone to forget the Code: Blue team name so that Blue Marvel can use it for his future hybrid Avengers/Defenders/X-Men team. :cool:

This! Galactus has both a mother (Taaia) and daughter (Galacta) in the lore. It's time Taaia met her granddaughter. Let the cosmic tearjerker begin!

In one of the Thunderbolts series Monica borrowed Adam's vest, but I wonder what she would have looked like if they would have drawn her wearing his helmet?

Same.

The bigger mystery was that Monica's complexion also inexplicably changed to a lighter tone. Oddly enough, characters that you would think would be lighter -- like Adam Brashear's biracial...

I'm sure they'll come up with some magical reason as to why every hero capable of generating sunlight -- or really any kind of light -- is unable to affect the event. I mean all they'd really need is...

Dagger (Marvel) + Death of the Endless (DC) = Sica...

...and sometimes she's called Acinaces.

Death has many faces and when her eldritch light daggers land, her victims experience them all.
...

Very nice concepts here.

About the same as her phasing a bag of dog poop into a bad guy's mouth and then unphasing its contents. And then there was that live grenade that she phased into the Joker's stomach that one time....

Yes, that is a good thing as foreshadowed in the first issue when Blue Marvel declared that he would be a mutant ally.

Thanks for the update. Whenever Adam appears in someone else's book, he typically gets the short end of the stick. Not sure how he will be used here, but it wouldn't surprise me if he's just there...

It's always fun to read the first and last sentences of a post. :D

Your first sentence:


Your last sentence:


Nope, no negativity here. :D

All great points, but isn't Miracleman also widely considered to be a pastiche of Shazam/Captain Marvel? Don't get me wrong, I'm totally ok with that as I grew up watching the old Captain Marvel...

I'm not sure that is possible at this point. And should Sentry appear in a movie, I think that will forever cement him as a Superman pastiche to the general public, since pretty much every article...

Kitty Pryde + Batgirl = Shadow Bat

Give me one of those old-fashioned Marvel Two-in-One story arcs where Ben starts off teaming up with one character only to team up with other characters in subsequent issues until the tale reaches...

Yes, this would work, too. Really can't go wrong with either concept.

Coldplay as inspired by the band, of course. ;)

And I'm thinking Supergirl as the last daughter of Krypton whose spacecraft landed on the planet Xandar, instead of on Earth as initially planned....

Supergirl + Nova = Supernova.

Ice Man + Killer Frost = Coldplay.

I always liked that texture of hairstyle on Monica, although I'm perfectly fine no matter what style she sports, from 'fro to braids and everything in between. I don't know this for a fact, but in my...

If only the non-mutant side of Marvel had its version of a Storm-type sista. I know, I know, many will say Misty Knight is that in terms of personality and longevity, and Monica Rambeau is that in...
