Cholly & Flytrap... by Lacloake	May 11th, 2009 09:54:14 AM
I remember reading that years ago in a comic that also had serials of Akira, The Last American and a few other gems.... what the hell was it called? C & F was fucking hilarious too, really gruesome ending if I remember correctly...
Just answered my own question... by Lacloake	May 11th, 2009 10:18:58 AM
It was called Toxic! Great collection too... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T oxic! ... They don't make 'em like that anymore, salad days......
Frog Thor is a legend! by The Penultimate Gunslinger	May 11th, 2009 10:52:34 AM
Though a new group of Young Avengers?? Why does every Marvel team have to have a complete rota revamp every few months? Will we soon be seeing a new group of Runaways as well? (although that would be good - the old team have become stale due to consistant fuckupery from the writers).
And those Comic Book Guy quotes..... by The Penultimate Gunslinger	May 11th, 2009 10:54:06 AM
... had me laughing like a buffoon. That character is so spot on.
In fact they should kill off regular Thor again.... by The Penultimate Gunslinger	May 11th, 2009 10:57:07 AM
... and replace him with Frog Thor. Frog Thor should be the one who brings down Normal Osbourne and ends Dark Reign. Make it happen, Marvel!!!!
Really? Those Simpsons quotes? by D.Vader	May 11th, 2009 11:12:11 AM
The "I've wasted my life" is so much better than the Sean Connery/Roger Moore one. Meh.
Psst... Gunslinger... by Joenathan	May 11th, 2009 11:49:09 AM
They're not really heroes... they're bad guys... kind of like the Dark Avengers... don't tell anyone...

Ah! Maybe I should have actually read those preview scans. I guess that's a slightly more interesting concept, but not by much.
Pet Avengers by Continentalop	May 11th, 2009 01:23:36 PM
Any else remember the old issue of "What If?" that had "what if Howard the duck led a super-hero team of animal characters?" That issue also featured my other favorite What If? idea: what if you sat behind the Leader at the movies?
I almost forgot... by Joenathan	May 11th, 2009 03:49:01 PM
In the latest New Avengers: Reunion, what do we get? Thats right, a West Coast Avengers BBQ including Iron Man in full costume and holding a beer... fantastic.
By the way... by Continentalop	May 11th, 2009 04:40:22 PM
...Will someone please kill Bullseye. Yeah, he is a psychotic criminal who likes to kill people, doesn't mean we should be rooting for him (American Eagle, where are you to finish this douche bag off?). And as for that Dark Young Avengers preview, notice the fact that the robbers were racially mixed? You've got to hand it to crooks in the comic book universes, they may be thieves but they are not racist (unlike the guys I met in LA County in my youth).
What if Leader... by BlueHawaiiSurfer	May 11th, 2009 05:42:40 PM
At the movies!! That image will be burned into my head forever. The look on that guys face, lol!
New Young Avengers? by Homer Sexual	May 11th, 2009 06:07:16 PM
Why? What was wrong with the old Young Avengers? Mighty Avengers even mentions Cassie and Vision (my two least favorit YA members, FWIW) being on both teams. This new book might be good, but I really was hoping the "real" Young Avengers would be back at some point.
Joe... by Homer Sexual	May 11th, 2009 06:10:33 PM
Well, I am stupid also, I didn't realize this was Dark Young Avengers, I just thought it had the Dark Reign banner. My bad. My LCS was, surprisingly, sold out of the Reunion issue. I was bummed, and am now even more excited to grab my copy this week. Loved your comparison to ballers partying in full uniform, btw.
YOUNG AVENGERS!!!! WOO-HOO!!! by HollywoodHellraiser	May 11th, 2009 06:16:33 PM
I'm so stoked for this new series that I think I'll get Pet Avengers as well!
Pet Avengers vs. Super Pets by Buzz Maverik	May 12th, 2009 11:15:36 PM
Krypto vs. Lockjaw? Does Beppo get to throw poop? Schleppy needs to review.
