Asura from Asura's Wrath is a better written version of the Hulk.

Carol's current costume is the best she's ever had.

That said, the black costume could work just as well if it were given pants.

What is he like?

[Baron of Faltine]

What is he like?

Angry. Very very angry.
(And killed gods..but he is not kratos...kratos got the happy ending)

[Agent Z]

What is he like?

He's much more aware that his anger is a problem than the Hulk and much better at aiming it at those who deserve it.

That doesn't sound anything like the Hulk.

My hot take is that the black costume in itself is great, and wasn't even so sexualized when it was created, but:

- Frank Cho and a bunch of other artists ruined it by making it so it was like a thong and showing her whole ass and even like... sides of the front.
- It doesn't really fit Carol's character that much. It's kinda just a random superhero costume, her Captain Marvel ones reflect her personality and history a lot more.

My point exactly.

Also, the narrative is much more aware of Asura's flaws.

If anything, the costume seems more fitting for Moonstone or someone who's a dark reflection of Carol now.

Well he did get a happy ending when he saved his daughter imo, maybe bittersweet ending.

Issues with execution aside, Jason Aaron's take on She-Hulk and how she views herself is not without basis. Jen has been harassed, she has been objectified in-universe as well as out; the Sensational She-Hulk series has numerous instances of her clothes being ripped in battle, to say nothing of how three different villains tried to force her into a relationship. There's a even a scene in Sensational She-Hulk where a villain hurls misogynistic insults when her clothes are destroyed by his henchman.

With all that in mind, is it any wonder Jen might come to see he feminine looks as more of a curse than a gift? Was there another, better way it could have been done? Maybe, but the idea does have a pretty strong foundation.

When written well Reed is, dare I say, the most relatable member of the F4 for how deeply flawed he is. For all the problems I have with Waid's run because of his handling of Doom, there is a moment at the beginning between Reed and baby Val which shows that despite his at times cold and distant demeanor, Reed is not oblivious to his own shortcomings and he cares a lot.

Great post. People always knock Reed when he does wrong, but he’s a good man.

Reed and Tony are quite similar for the fact that when they make a mistake some comic fans tend to judge them too harshly without realizing that most of their actions, good or bad, are either born from a desire to atone for past mistakes or make the world a better place for their loved ones and humanity in general.

I find Waid good with these small character moments. Brief scenes that give us a lot of insight on the characters. Not many seem capable of this nowadays.

Peace

Quoted for truth! Well said.
