She was originally The Harpy (long ago). Many years later, the Red She-Hulk. After being depowered, she apparently became the Red Harpy (latest form).

Yup. here is a cover.

For eff's sake. Off panel? So a pointless death....

[Kaled]

His protégé Manslaughter needs to return. He was Deadpool before Deadpool.

Never really warmed up to the character. But being killed off-panel is always disrespectful. Haven't they leaned anything with Alpha Flight?

Peace

His protégé Manslaughter needs to return. He was Deadpool before Deadpool.

He's alive again - they all came back. No one has used him, however. Which is a bit of a bummer.
He seems like he'd fit in a Deadpool Corps kind of book.

The Defenders Omnibus finally came out! I put my order in for the new gorgeous Molina cover.

Hey Rev!

Thanks for the heads-up! I need me to order this here book!

[Oberon]

I'm sure I'm wrong. Wasn't the Interloper also the Overmind?

If not, is the Overmind considered an Eternal of some sort?

Good to see you Phoenixx9!

Yes, indeed! I'm sure it will be beautiful! And of course, it is the early, beginning issues.

Was he? I didn't think so. Now I need to go look.

EDIT

Okay, it appears he was originally from a planet named Eterna, so his people were called Eternals, but that was all before Kirby's stuff, so it was then changed to Eyung or something like that. So, I'm guessing he is NOT a Kirby Eternal.

Same, I usually go for DM covers but the Molina cover was too beautiful to pass up.

[Captain Craig]

Got the Defenders Omni yesterday as well. Excited to receive it as these early Defenders issues I've not read.
As of earlier this morning all 3 covers were still available on IST.

1. More printed of each cover?
2. Less excitement for the title than anticipated?
3. More people shopping elsewhere now, away from IST?
4. Combo of these factors in some form.
