Death's Head has been popping up all over the MU (kind of sparsely to be honest) but I just learned He is in the new Black Bolt Book. Shows up in Issue #3. Thus making it a Must Buy! Yes?

[The Sword is Drawn]

Lots of fleeting minor appearances, yes. Whatever happened to that series Marvel hinted at, I wonder?

[Flyattractor]

Who knows, but I would buy it. I am also working to the Rumor started that DH will be in the next GOTG movie. Just because that would be AWESOME!!! ...yes?

[616MarvelYear is LeapYear]

Agreed! Yes! AWESOME!!!

The year 2020 is just around the corner......

[The Sword is Drawn]

The year 2020 is just around the corner......

Well, the timeline has somewhat changed since then...

We were shown in the pages of Nova (pre-Sam Nova) that Evelyn Necker may have been on the payroll of Project PEGASUS but she had secretly been working for A.I.M. We'd seen schematics for a Death's Head 3.0 unit and she'd taken advantage of Richard Rider's fragile state at the time to make a copy of the Novacorps Worldmind and link it up with a project she called 'Minion'.

But that was years ago, now. And with A.I.M. having changed ownership significantly since them it would have to be some kind of offshoot group.

Not implausible, mind.

Given that Tf artist Nick Roche is doing Renew your Vows, I wonder if Death's head will make an appearance there?

I didn't grow up with Marvel UK but I checked out Revolutionary War and I think the Deaths Head issue was the best one. Give us a Deaths Head and DH II team up book Marvel!.....please?

It seemed like the bookend to REVOLUTIONARY WAR with the two Death's Heads ,and Tuck teleporting off to parts unknown were planning on continuing their partnership.
On the subject of Death's Head being in the next GOTG. The original I keep thinking being played by Vin Diesel. I know he already plays Groot, but with the original Freelance Peace Keeping Agent having a face that looks like the grill to Mack Semi Tractor Trailer Truck. Him channeling a bit of his Iron Giant voice into the role he'd be perfect. For Death's-Head II, I keep thinking Dwayne Johnson for the role.

A fight (back in the day) between Dr. Evelyn Necker's Death's Head and Earth-811's Nimrod would have been epic.

I was reading Planet Hulk for the billionth time yesterday, and I realized those black robots are Death’s Heads!

Now I want a series about Death’s Head going up against Death’s Head II and a bunch of Death’s Head IIIs. Art by Ed McGuiness. Written by Gerry Duggan.
