The Black Knight Rides Again: An Appreciation

[mrjinjin]

I'd love to see him riding Aragorn again.

It would have to be a new Aragorn. I read somewhere that Aragorn got blown up. I kinda liked Valinor with those red eyes.

Better yet, he could use Strider. Always thought it was cool how he could take Dane places where he couldn't go before and could find Dane anywhere.

Unfortunately Strider went the way of the Elvian armor and the Sword of Light and Shield of Night, never to be seen again. Aragorn ended up becoming more Val's horse than Dane's. I really thought Valinor was cool, but I'f I'm not mistaken he ended up further mutated or became Bloodwraith's horse, or both. I wouldn't mind seeing any of the steeds back, but I think they'll probably go with something new (masybe even a dragon or something). Just don't bring back the atomic steed, please.

Peace

Strider was seen in Captain Britain and MI-13, so he hasn't been totally forgotten! I'm sure we'll see him again. Dane will need some kind of transportation in Weirdworld!

Oh, anything but the Atomic Steed, please. Dane looked even more like a dork while riding it.

Not sure you know Nomads1 but the Sword of Light and Shield of Night BK appeared in Shield #1. He was teamed with Val.

Did not know it. Wish they'd bring the whole concept back.

Is it November yet? I am so looking forward to this. And he gets an action figure variant, too! I hope a future issue will have a Skottie Young variant- baby Dane would be too cute.

Blasphemy!

I liked the atomic steed...it really suited Dane and his particular blend of science and sorcery. A medieval knight on a flying horse of metal!

Don't get me wrong, I liked Dane's various flesh-and-blood horses too. But the atomic steed works too, imo.

I'm getting more and more excited about this

[Captain Craig]

I'm going to get the first issue at least, see if it's written well enough to intrigue me for more at least.
I give Marvel props for not doing a 10th Avengers title, so I'll try issue #1.

[Bellerophon]

I'm so excited for a Black Knight ongoing. Dane is one of the most underrated Avengers.

I'm so excited for this. My top of the new ongoings.

Me too. I pre-ordered but I was not able to order the variant cover yet.
