who are headsman and mr.x? wasn't the blonde black widow in the group? that team is seriously lacking in sex appeal lol...how would you compare the more recent issues with the ellis run or the issues diggle did with roberto de la torre? i think the last issue i got was when they osborn shot a missile at air force one or something lol

i thought this weeks asm was good as well...the art in the back-up alternated between sublime (mainly thanks to the coloring) and incoherent as fuck...but i like what they've done with electro

the blonde black widow turned out to be the real black widow..eloels.

[main_man]

im not really sure who headsman is. i think hes an old avengers villain.
and mr.x is a wolverine bad guy whos a master killer cause he knows what your going to do next. i really dont know him too well, i think he appeared in wolverine comics in the late 90's- early 2k.
and its not a bad read, but nowhere near the ellis run. (witch got me into thunderbolts in the first place.)

spider woman was a drag...and wtf is going on in wolverine? eloels. nice art tho.

[KZA]

wolverine weapon x is dope. this issue was he was in a room with 2 people and there was weapons on the table and someone in another room wanted him to use it on them but then he started to regain his memory back.

spider-woman you can watch all the episodes on hulu i think. the last issue is where all the crap that goes down. i cant believe i bought it for my iphone smh.

i thought dark reign the list: spider-man was good

spoilers

*Osborn opens the door. Sees Spider-Man downloading files*
Spider-Man: Uhhhh...LOOK! BEHIND YOU! NAKED BELGIANS!
*Osborn turns*
Osborn: What the...?!
*Spider-Man takes hard drive*
Spider-Man: Yoink...
*jumps out window*
Spider-Man: AND AWAY!

or how Peter uses that trick again.

*Iron Patriot appears in a cyber cafe and sees Peter at a computer*
Peter: Look...
Osborn: I'm not falling for that again tonight...
Peter: IT'S NORMAN OSBORN! THE IRON PATRIOT!
*everyone in the cafe crowds Norman and gets in his way asking for autographs and complimenting him, while Peter finishes the upload*

his list record is 4-4

wins

He imprisoned Hawkeye.

He exposed Banner to particles that would make him the Hulk.

He got Bullseye to blow up some tentaments in Hells Kitchen.

He got Daken to kill the Punisher.

loses

His plan to use Namor's old girlfriend as a weapon to kill atlanteans didn't work as well as he expected, with Namor throwing her monster head through Osborn's window.

He couldn't control the Weapon X factory/facility: The World.

Nick Fury played him.

And Spider-man exposed his more sinister activities to the public.

Secondary story involved Osborn, when he was the Green Goblin, almost killing Luke Cage's unborn daughter.

^^^having read the pulse issue, and marvel knights: spider-man 1-12, spider-man: the final chapter, etc...how did osborn spin the fact that he's been exposed as the goblin on several occasions?

lol at "naked belgians!"

did anybody read asm?

how is banner potentially turning into the hulk again a win for osborn?

read the luke cage:noir series as a whole...great art/coloring and the plot and some of the dialogue are good...but overall the plot structure is extremely sloppy.

[KZA]

Actually the problem was Banner. He needed to deal with Banner. Banner as a normal human...with no Hulk problems, and a lot of free time was bad. Hulk can be controlled or manipulated to be out of your way for a while. With Banner....you get none of that. So to keep Banner from fudging with Osborn...give him his own problems to deal with.

I read asm. peter not getting drunk at the wedding since michele kept giving him ginger ale after his one glass of champagne.
