If you worked for Marvel, what would you write?

[Rok]

"Untold stories: Spider-Man and his Ultimate Friends"

In the period after Ultimatum, Johnny Storm and Iceman lived with Peter. The tree if them teams up with Kitty Pryde.

[Mutant God]

Anyone of my alternate universes in the thread Create Your Own Alternate Universe(s)

But in the main universe a couple of ideas:

Uncanny X-Men - A Russian government official who is anti-mutant and has the army killed mutants in Russia only to be found out by the media and The X-Men battle Russian soldiers and sentinels.

Young Avengers - Battling New Offenders, An extremist with magic power, Space Pirates who use Hulking to steal from both empires

Fantastic Four - Ben and Johnny wake up in an Alien Casino, and Sue and Reed battle a cult leader while Valeria tries to stop her robot from destroying the Baxter Building

[Heasensy32]

Spiderman, Ironfist, Hulk and Squirrel girl.

Mostly Spider-man and it's called epic spiderman with peter building his legacy as the greatest superhero of all and most of his supporting cast become mutates like him going on their own adventures and finally being apart of spider's heroic circle and him being the leader minus aunt may and jj.

I'd write Spider-Man, getting his timeline and marriage restored by Loki, who owes him a boon for saving his daughter.

Oh, and I'd do a universe-wide event in which Death grows a spine and starts rekilling everybody who's ever come back to life.

And then I'd do something creator-owned on ICON...

[L.R Johansson]

I'd write Future Foundation, and use a lot of the forgotten yet uber-cool sci-fi concepts in the MU. =)

I'd write Defenders, and use a lot of the forgotten yet uber-cool Magic -concepts in the MU as well!

I'd write X-men, and I would bring the 04 back together, with Polaris and Havoc, and do a whole run of X-men, where they get members from EVERY species of humanity in the MU, and bring back Mutant Alpha as the big villain. The whole run would be very ANTI-Claremont, it would be me trying to make the Kirby-X-men work.

Hopefully I could do it.

I'd love to write a Mar-Vell ongoing taking place between Thanos's (first) death and Marv's death.

Basically just an excuse to do stupid flashback stories of Elysius, Eros and Marv having light-hearted Star Trek-like adventures, but with disturbingly casual references to Marv's past as the "greatest Kree captain" (that is, a merciless Kree warlord), Elysius having technically been created evil (or at least heartlessly pragmatic), and the fact that Eros's backstory is pretty traumatic (and that his powers are very likely horrifying to have. Slavers trying to cash in on you much?) Hah, that could set the stage for a story: They run into space pirates who recognize Eros, chase ensues in which Elysius struggles to resist selling Eros to said slavers/space pirates/junkies, and then it turns out the space pirates became pirates because when Mar-Vell was a Kree captain he led to the Kree conquest of their civilization but they managed to escape. Also, fun exploring all sorts of issues in the context of anything-is-possible-with-alien-civilizations!

Obviously it would depend heavily on possibly-since-then-retconned backstories, but I'd try to connect and consolidate everything (i.e. how come Titan is often depicted as a populated place even though war/nukes; how did Heater Delight suddenly go from blue to 'pink,' etc). It'd be a way to write Mar-Vell right here and now without bringing him back from the dead or having to deal with crossover events or anything new, although later-in-the-timeline stories would definitely be alluded to (such as that time Marv suddenly reappeared from a time portal and found it extremely important to notify his two companions that he'd once had a fling with a Skrull Princess and he might not have used protection).

I would write this ongoing forever (well no because Marv would eventually have to die) and it would sell a million copies each issue and everything I want to be canon would be canon and I'd sneak in social justice, physics and philosophy everywhere. It'd be great. This is literally what I daydream about and nothing like this will never happen in real life either in terms of MU canon or me, so I might as well share it.

I have your back, buddy. This is the type of stuff that interest me.

John Byrne mentioned that something like "X-Men Forever" the Claremont series that he wrote a couple of years ago would be a good model to basically pick up a series when it was left off at some point in time and write something different from that point on. Where creators would choose the timeline in a comic series' past they would be interested in writing.

You could do that for various series and characters. Personally, X-Men-wise it would be around the X-Tinction Agenda, I would re-do the whole thing. And hire artist David Finch for it.

[jphamlore]

I would write Kills the Marvel Universe.

In no particular order I would start with Nick Fury, Winter Soldier, Black Widow, Impossible Man, Angela, Fin Fang Four, and Doop. Of course Punisher has already been taken by Ennis.

[Da Boat]

As far as regular existing series, I would write

Cap

Hawkeye(similar to Fraction's series but more action and his whole outfit back)

the Avengers(classic characters, classic book, big ideas + personal struggle and a few new heroes)

Hulk(a lot of big ideas with genetic experiments and so forth with Hulk being modified all the time)

[Lady Warp Spasm]

Give me, Give me, and I'm gonna buy all your books.

-I would like to bring back the old Tomb of Dracula crew and have Brent "Astro City" Anderson draw it.

-Shield. With Real Fury. With Paul Gulacy as regular artist.

-Defenders book with Supernatural characters.

-Russian team/Winter Soldier. Cause they never had a team and would like to see it.

The Russians did have a team (The Winter Guard) and an earlier attempt at a team with a whacky variation on Perun, but the point of the Winter Soldier is that he largely acts alone and is able to infiltrate undetected. Buck's not the most liked man in Russia and going by Brubaker's run, he was not very popular when he was under their thumb either.

I wouldn't mind seeing a complete rethink of the Winter Guard though. A new Russian team without the WS, da.

but I digress: Some other good ideas there, Supernatural Defenders being the one I'd buy in a heartbeat.

[Winterboy]

I really would like to write Orson Randall and Union Jack in WWII.

For the X-Men I want to do a storyline where they find a neo-Weapon X project being conducted. This project is headed by an admirer of the work of the scientist who experimented on Wolverine. This storyline would introduce the five year old daughter of Graydon Creed and an agent of the organization who entered a relationship with the anti-mutant leader of the FOH so she could conceive a child for the project. Mostly because of the fact that Graydon is the son of the two infamous mutants and the possibility he could have a mutant child was appealing to them. Not to mention his father, Sabertooth, was on of the subjects on the original Weapon X. The head scientist then killed the female agent because he feared that she could become too attached to the child and try to break her out. The X-Men who would be in this arc would be Nightcrawler, Rouge, X-23, and Shadowcat who would team up with Mystique in order to save the child. I actually think Mystique would be the one to inform them of this and be the one to initiate an alliance in order to retrieve Graydon's daughter. Of course Mystique wants to do it because it is her granddaughter. Although they of course wouldn't trust her, the fact is that Nightcrawler and Rouge cannot ignore they have a recently discovered niece who is being trained into being a killing machine. This would be why X-23 would come along because she knows too well how it feels like to be robbed of one's innocence and abused into being a human weapon. Shadowcat would come because she would be interested in helping save the niece of her best friend.

This would never happen, but Ultimate Monet St. Croix in which she grew up in Algeria as opposed to Bosnia/Monaco. I'm actually not sure what the deal is with mutants in the Ultimate-verse (aren't they ... like a super-soldier serum thing there, too?), so maybe it would just be a general AU Monet book, but I'd love to see her be a little more outwardly Algerian, being Algerian myself. It'd be a great way to get another piece of the global take on mutants, and there'd still be good potential for comparing/contrasting with racism as Monet is black and a lot of parts of Algeria aren't so black. You'd see her growing up with her family, Living Life in Algeria, trying to get through school and hoping her mom can support them all, and then her powers start to awaken. She has to deal with what that means and hoping not to become a social outcast and starting to secretly help others. The series would end when her dad (still Cartier St. Croix) finally finds out about this and demands that she's sent somewhere else because of her abilities, they settle on Xavier's.

Maybe I just want to do a retcon of her past up to Phalanx Covenant!

Sorry, I meant "Winter Guard" not Winter Soldier.

I would definitly read that.

[Project Initiative Cascada]

I would do am amazing job writing an Emma Frost or Black Cat or Dazzler solo series. I would even like to do a comic reminiscent to "Birds of Prey" where different female heroines from the MU team up.
