Quicksilver and Crystal obviously (and she's been linked with Johnny Storm, Bobby Drake, and now The Sentry.)

Crystal and Bobby Drake? When did *that* happen?

Maybe I'm misremembering, but when she was first introduced in FF, wasn't Crystal torn between the hot-headed Storm and the cool-hands Drake?

While I'm going to pick up this book, this definitely isn't a traditional Avengers lineup (you'd have to go to "Mighty Avengers" for that). Bendis' reveal of Click Here For A SpoilerPower Man and Iron Fist as members clinches it. Not a big surprise who turns out to be team leader. If it weren't for the just revealed never-been-an Avenger-before member, I wasn't totally sure I'd be in. But now I have to get it. I'm excited about the book now.

Well Bendis finally made it a Marvel Knights book. Basically all street level characters except for a couple. Not sure I like who is the new Ronin (we all know who it is). He should just call the book the Kung-Fu Hussle or something. [Smile]

The presence of Spidey and Wolverine pretty much guarantees that this will be a huge seller.

I'm just not interested, even though I like a lot of the characters.

Well .... first appearance of the NEW new team!

I suppose Echo's "sex change" makes some sense now, but it's funny that we now have a new Ronin mystery. A lot people have been guessing that it's Cap, but from the dialogue, it doesn't seem like him. And Cap hacking away at people with a sword? I dunno...

Still awesome to see Iron Fist on the team, using the Fist to great effect.

Eh, IMO they brought Hawkeye back to life so that he could be Ronin v 3.0.

Unless he's the new guy in the Iron Man armor [Wink] (or unless they're BOTH the same guy ...(or girl for all we know))

Oh, and Yu needs to pick up the latest Iron Fist series -- he ditched the yellow booties...

So, what did anyone left reading this title think of the big reveal at the end of #31 (click here for spoilers)?

House of M, Civil War, all of the big Marvel U events of late have left me cold (to the point of dropping basically all Marvel titles). But this idea might get me back in, at least for next year's event.

Now to start a list. Who do you think is really a Click Here For A SpoilerSkrull?

All right it's been a while since I've done a New Avengers rant.

First off New Avengers: Illumimanti #3 really made me angry. Marvel has explained the Beyonder off as an infant cosmic cube. It worked. I liked it. I like the cosmic cube mythology. Ofcourse here comes Brian Bendis and says the Beyonder was really an Inhuman which is extremely powerful. He also kind of suggested the entire Secret Wars II didn't happen. I hate that.

Ok, the reveal? Not very keen on it either. I think it might cheapen some things like Civil War.

Is Tony Stark a [SPOILER}? No. They couldn't do that. It would just cheapen all of Civil War. I'm hoping Nomad was a {SPOILER} so they can bring the real one back.

I keep thinking Marvel Team-Up might have some answeres. One of the heroes introduced there was a {SPOILER}. I actually liked him. And there was a alternate version of Tony Stark introduced who is currently running around the MU secretly.

This can get sticky.
