Children's Crusade #4: THE BIG ONE

Assuming you are as big a fan as I am, you also screamed something both guttural and squeaky from the deep recesses of your throat and then promptly began sobbing and crying for joy while making sounds reminiscent of the Muppets' Beaker.

Or maybe it's just me.

The last page of Avengers: The Children's Crusade #4. HUGE HUGE HUGE SPOILERS. I'M WARNING YOU NOW, IT'S REALLY BIG.

But first, something from Avengers #5, posted a few months ago. Look at the entry after "Return of the King"

Ironlad (re)turns.

I am not getting my hopes up too much for now, because of the way it was written, but let us remove all doubts for a moment and simply bask in the joy of getting our favorite teen team leader back.

Heinberg, if you fake out now, I will rip something painful.

WTF KIND OF ENDING IS THIS? It makes me happy, and yet also enraged.

And the rest of the issue seemed a bit short. My sad face is imminent.

No. You are terrible, terrible person and you are fired! :O

Chris is an actor and he portrays Kurt as camp because the scripts tells him Kurt is camp. He had been nominated to Emmy AND GG for his portrayal, because he's just such a good actor.

Chris himself is a huge geeky fanboy, who loves Harry Potter, knows his way around sai swords and has a trunk full of not of tiaras but X-Men action figures. I'm pretty sure Billy is closer to him than Kurt.

There's a joke I had about this.

When Children's Crusade 2 was out and posted on SD, Billy transformed everyone there into Von Trapp clothes. Kate even pointed out who Eli was dressed as.

My internal conversation was this:

Me: So, then who's Billy dressed....DUH, he's Kurt. Because Billy Tivos Glee to watch it when Teddy's not around...

	I'm pretty sure I actually posted a similar thought back in that post! Furthermore, the character of Kurt was named Kurt because Chris played him in Sounds of Music and Ryan Murphy said he looked familiar. My head is about to explode. The coincidence would be just too incredible if that happened. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

I'd nix that just because Colfer doesn't look anything like I imagine Billy looking. Love him in Glee, but really not seeing him in an action type role. Or with flippy/wavy hair, which Billy must have if the world is to remain intact.

I'd love a young Jake Gyllenhaal to play him. Or maybe that David Henrie kid from Wizards of Waverly place, which I have actually seen once or twice to my eternal shame. If that guy became a somewhat better actor, he could pull of the action fanboy thing...

	Young Jake Gyllenhaal? So you saw Heinberg's old plans too? Because even now, Lindsay Lohan for Teddy still makes me laugh so hard. XD (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 2 comments) (Show 2 comments)

	Didn't know the Lohan thing, though I did know Teddy was supposed to be a girl. I just think young Jake could do a really good job. Could've. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)
