    I think Jorge Molina is going to do well for A-Force:

    Arcadia: #35, an island Domain in the Southeastern corner section of the SW Battleworld map

    Surrounded by:

    In the West: #'s 25 - Valley of Flame, 26 - The Hydra Empire, & 28 - Hala Field
    To the North: #'s 27 - 2099 & 36 - Bar Sinister
    Off to the East: #'s 31 - The Wastelands & 37 - Limbo
    And down South: #'s 38 - The Deadlands & 40 - New Xandar


    That's probably gonna be it for me tonight, fellow A~F fans, it's gettin' pretty late. Before I go tho, just wanna give a BIG thanks for all the support & outright enthusiasm being shown already, it's both encouraging & really inspiring, TBH w/ya. And I hope to get responding to each & every bit of it ASAP tomorrow sometime, maybe a lil' even in the a.m., if possible. 'Til then, take care & be well... and keep dreaming up ways to hype the hell out of this book & help ensure its success!!

    I agree with CJStriker. You've done a great job on the introduction of the thread. I'm enjoying the links, especially.

    However, perhaps you could find another image for Dazzler? I didn't recognize her, as that image just looks like a generic singer.

    Here's a few I found.






    Namor the Sub-Mariner, Marvel's oldest character, will have been published for 85 years in 2024. So where's my GOOD Namor anniversary ongoing, Marvel?

    I can't wait to read it. I hope there's a rotating cast so we can see white tiger and others interact with the others too

    Now this is how you create an appreciation thread! Well done Hero Worship! I am so happy that my favorite superheroine is a main character here. Some points:

    Wilson said the five main women balance out each other. She-Hulk has the sheer strength, some leadership skills, and is a legal genius. Having once served in the Living Tribunal's Magistrati, she's dealt with cosmic beings before, so she might be the one who can be most at ease with Singularity, but we shall see. Dazzler transduces sound to light so we have our energy manipulator. If Wilson writes her with her original personality we're going to have moments of levity in between the heavy stuff; I think Alison and Jen can bring it on together. Medusa the queen, obvious leadership skills and a good melee fighter as well, we don't know how strongly she will pursue the Inhumans agenda in A-Force, but that may be for their own book. Nico Minoru is the resident spellcaster, but last I know she can cast a specific spell only once, unless that limitation has been overcome. She should be able to handle what science can't. Singularity is the real tabula rasa for me. She could be a scaled-down Eternity, but perhaps with a different mindset. How she'll interact with mortals is something we'll find out. It might be along the lines of the Cloud the living star in the Defenders.

    Pan:
    • In Greek religion and mythology, Pan is the god of the wild, shepherds and flocks, nature of mountain wilds, hunting and rustic music, and companion of the nymphs.
    • He has the hindquarters, legs, and horns of a goat, in the same manner as a faun or satyr.
    • He is also recognized as the god of fields, groves, and wooded glens; because of this, Pan is connected to fertility and the season of spring.

    Nymphs:
    • A nymph in Greek mythology and in Latin mythology is a minor female nature deity typically associated with a particular location or landform.
    • Different from goddesses, nymphs are generally regarded as divine spirits who animate nature, and are usually depicted as beautiful, young nubile maidens who love to dance and sing; their amorous freedom sets them apart from the restricted and chaste wives and daughters of the Greek polis.
    • Although they would never die of old age nor illness, and could give birth to fully immortal children if mated to a god, they themselves were not necessarily immortal, and could be beholden to death in various forms.


    Questions & Theories:
    Coming soon.
    Some Theories that I may have to help you out Hero Worship.

    By the info found in both Wiki and by other info is that Aradia is going to be a Utopian Paradise for Women!

    In Greek Mythos is was a unspoiled civilization that lived in harmony with nature. Aradia is also defined as a Utopia, virtuous in its connection to nature and how well it is bonded to and respects nature.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcadia_%28utopia%29


    ____________________________________

    The Nymph all seem to also not just to be maiden of the lands of Aradia, they are also aspects of nature like the Trees, Woods, Water, Air and so on.

    They might prove to the main connections that makes Aradia not only a Female Utopia, but worth saving. The other Battle-World Lands seem will all be in constant War with with each other or in their own lands with themselves. But Aradia might be the accept-tion to the rule and be one of the Few Places of Peace, making it worth saving in a world of WAR!

    Per appreciation thread guidelines, six posts discussing the announcement of A-Force on The View were moved to the Marvel Announces "A-Force" From Wilson, Bennett, Molina During "Secret Wars" thread where they are more appropriately discussed.

    I'm excited for this book, especially since it hit a few notes that I am really happy with.

    1) It's not another Carol Danvers or Black Widow hype machine. They could have easily slapped Captain Marvel in the front or Black Widow, but they didn't. Yes, they are in the book, but this team is She-Hulk's with Dazzler, Nico, etc. As somehow who has claimed that the Marvel U was constantly shrinking to only focus on the same characters over and over, seeing that they are using more C-Listers as the leads makes me very happy.

    2) Nico is gonna be in a book that's getting A-List publicity. That's fantastic.

    3) Karolina Dean and Pixie!

    4) As much as I was a fan of Fearless Defenders, it's great that it's starting out with the team assembled, where FD ended with the team finally assembled. I hope it keeps this massive team momentum throughout the series.

    5) The sense that "Anyone can show up" is a great hook. I've been dying for that hook again!

    There is a lot I love about this premise and I really hope it delivers and sells well.

    My wishlist though? Songbird, Diamondback, Hazmat, Sun Girl (Selah Burke), Anya Corazon, Hope Summers, Transonic, Julie Power, Crystal, Surge, Dust, Mercury and Cassie Lang

    Also, I don't think Kamala will show up because they want to make her meeting Carol be a big issue in her own book. Having her meet Carol here would remove that special event.

    Speaking of Diamondback, I hope that she pops up in here as well. We haven't really seen much of her since Brubaker's Cap run ended.

    I agree and I add Rogue in her 90's outfit.
