    Don't like the sound of that. Feel certain things should just be left alone and that is one of them.

    However, I am interested that it might be an FF centric event. Probably wont by until after the story is finished though. If it sounds like I will like i'll grab it in trade.

    Marvel history was broken with One More Day back in 2007, if this leads to a retcon I'll be chuffed.

    This seems first of many teasers.

    I'm really worried about Janet.

    I hate this stuff. Don’t change it from how Stan and Jack intended it.
    Good Marvel characters- Bring Them Back!!!

    The expression "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" immediately came to mind when I read this. It's actually a very wise practice to follow.


    Think it's interesting that Now is the time Marvel picked to do this. Seeing as Stan has only been dead just under a month.

    Stan and Jack were always shaking things up.

    The Marvel universe should never stay stagnant.

    Obviously there's not much info on this yet but I like that it's FF-centric (so far). I trust Slott to unleash some grandiose FF plans.

    Why would she be affected? She meets Hank, he gives her powers by genetic engineering. That origin has no issues. FF, Hulk, and Spider-Man, though, all involve radiation, which we now know would cause cancer, not superpowers. If they're changing FF's origin, I can understand why.

    Well I figured this is a line-wide event that will affect every major character and team... including Avengers. Perfect time to alter how the team was founded.

    Her being very prominent lately does make me hopeful and I don't think this has high chances to happen. I'm just saying if they wanted to diminish Janet's role... this is the perfect event for it, or at least seems like it. Let's hope not. :/

    There likely will be more, I'll update if there are.

    I wouldn't worry about Janet. They'd have to go out of their way to mess up her and the Avengers' origins.

    If this is an event, it's only a month before War of the Realms. That's too close.

    I'm just worried about other origins being changed now. You know Marvel will reveal over the day other origins may be changing. Scary!

    Not if the F4 aren't tying in - they don't have to have a tie-in to be involved in the main event book.

    I'm not really surprised...more disheartened...as it just underscores my belief that the editors and writers are just imaginatively and creatively bankrupt and have been for quite some time.

    Editor 1: You got anything?
    Writer 1: Nothin'
    Writer 2: I gots nada.
    Editor 2: Zip, Zilch and Zero
    Editor 1: Hmmmm...I know! Let's retcon some origin stories that are decades old...the new readers won't know or care because it's all old stuff anyways. Nobody reads that far back. Besides, we've been rehashing Event titles and stories for a while now and that seems to have gone over well, so...
