Dark Avengers Annual #1

[redorion]

4 pages from Dark Avengers Annual #1 in which Bendis proves yet again he doesn't give a crap about continuity.





So apparently Bendis didn't get the memo about the Supreme Intelligence being killed a couple years ago, had his soul absorbed by Wraith and the Inhumans now ruling the Kree. That's aside from the fact that the Supreme Intelligence shouldn't know who the hell Noh-Varr is since he's from another universe and was in prison until after his death.

Noh-Varr's ugly new costume:



Surprise guest-appearance:

...Wow... Wow. My brain is just kind of refusing to store that costume in its memory.

[theanswer]

Ew, this was printed with failsauce instead of ink. :/

[thokstar]

Huh. It's like somebody took Space Ghost's costume, and then removed 50% of the awesome.

[ulf_boehnke]

They should have made him a super-villain instead.

[hybrid2]

Woah.

Nothing in this make any sence.

Where's the editor?
Why was this publish?

[joasakura]

..wha?

Wow. That costume is pure Fail.

:blue screens:

[colonel_green]

Looks like an update of the original Captain Marvel costume; that costume sucked, though.

[hybrid2]

is it safe to link Scan daily at CBR or not?

[icon_uk]

Is it possible this ISN'T The Supreme Intelligence though? Loki maybe, working with Osborn to keep Noh-Varr loyal?

[daningram.insanejournal.com]

I'm just curious. Does Bendis know that Marvel Boy is from an alternate reality? Because the scenes don't seem to indicate that at all.

[silverzeo]

... who in Marvel has the most costumes changes, not including the X-Men and Fantastic Four?

[sherkahn]

Oh god, I've done the timewarp dance. I'm in the 90's again.

[phoeixmessiah]

Uh couldn't this be the Supreme Intelligence from his dimension?

The costume is ugly, can we get the shorts back of his original green, white and gold costume?

[jlroberson]

Two things:

1) I don't give a shit about the SI having died(CAN it die, really?), glad it's here, and frankly I'm surprised they're only now getting around to doing this with Noh-Varr. That being said:

2) WHO THE FUCK LET STEVIE WONDER DESIGN A COSTUME?

[phoeixmessiah]

Ooo his costume looks like one of the Empirial Guard guys...Not sure his name but the costume is awfully similar. I think it's the bug eyes and covered head.

[thatnickguy]

Though I know it won't be the case, I really REALLY hope that last page is what the future status quo of Captain America will be. Bucky in the suit has been far too awesome to just walk away from.

[espanolbot]

Bucky: It's sure great you're alive Steve.
Steve: Ja, es ist gut. Heil Hitler!
Bucky: ...Are you feeling okay?
Steve: Ja.
Bucky: Huh, okay then.

[ghosty732]

Dude, Steve... bulge!

[robogeek]

I see Bendis' mistake.

In the back matter, he describes Noh-Varr as an alien take on Peter Parker, who has to learn to become responsible.

But he wasn't designed to be such. He's an alien take on NAMOR, who's only responsible when it suits him. :D

And if they wanted a Kree-style costume, why not use one of the Genis redesigns? That HoM costume was cool...

[valtyr]

That is a horrendous costume. And he's shaped like a condom, which really doesn't help. That tiny head!

(also: Steeeeeve!)

¬_¬

[jazzypom]

Steve came back too soon.

[furioussterling]

That costume is bad and you should feel bad, Bachalo!


Seriously, why does an alien with superpowers need GUN HOLSTERS? Or are they supposed to be something else?

Isn't that Red Skull?

[roguefankc]

I'm probably behind the times but I thought that Red Skull put himself into Steve's body the last time I checked. So how is that *truly* Steve Rogers?

As happy as I am, I'm agreeing that Bucky should stay as Cap for a while. He's proven that he can carry the mantle, and Steve needs to sort out his issues first with Tony, Reed, and all the other Pro-Reg heroes first or else it's not going to be very comfortable to be working alongside them again ASAP.

[xdoop]

I wonder if Noh-Var's new costume will look better under a different artist.

[iskander]

That looks shit...
