Mass Resurrection ala Marvel

[blackruzsa]

I don't know if anyone's posted or seen this already, but there are quite a few spoilers here for the upcoming issues of Avengers: the Children's Crusade.

I'm keeping out a few tags on purpose for those who wish for no spoilers.

He's looking mighty foine, isn't he :3

And this is why I can't wait 3 months for Cheung's art.

Also linking to this Heinberg interview, because he confirms Children's Crusade will pave the way for Avengers vs X-Men -

This is the part that bothers me...

"Allan Heinberg: It's revived and transformed him, burning away his ego and his insecurity, leaving only what is true and noble about Victor Von Doom."

Doom without his ego isn't Doom. :)

And yeah, I doubt this will stick.

If the supposedly ego-less Doom immediately starts correcting his own past mistakes, it might be real. If he immediately starts correcting his enemies' past mistakes, it's 100% BS -- and quintessential Doom.

Oh, I think it's real. I just expect it to last about 2 months before someone decides they need him as a villain again, and has him consciously decide to go back to the way he was or something. Bonus points if:

1) This turns out to be a Doombot, or
2) He purposefully scars himself.

They already did this in Secret Wars, kind of, Doom was omnipotent and the best at everything that there was no need for him to have an ego or do what he did.

Wait, did they bring Original Flavor Vision back too? OMG YAY TWO VISIONS! Jonas needs a non-evil member of his family to chill with!

[sinisterlink]

Original Vision showed up in one of the Avenger titles this month. Tony said he had been fixing him secretly and got him working again. There was a rather cute scene where Vision was saying hello to everyone when he saw the Red Hulk and was like 0_o and someone else was like, "Yeah, there's a Red Hulk now..."

[practicalcat]

Yay!

See Tony, this is a MUCH better idea than cloning Thor. Which Avengers title?

[sinisterlink]

It was in Avengers #19. Here's some pics I found:

Thanks for the pics!

Please tell me that the last panel is Vision spotting Billy and/or Tommy and/or Jonas. Please?

[long_silence]

The main one.

[blackruzsa]

Can't believe I missed that! I do wanna see how Jonas reacts to that.

[sinisterlink]

I'm just glad they brought the original Vision back separately. I was afraid they'd be doing the "there can only be one" kind of thing and have Jonas wiped out while putting the original in his place or something like that.

[blackruzsa]

Would have hurt something if that happened :[

[pyrotwilight]

Which confuses me greatly actually. Wasn't Vision all but obliterated and then what was left of him without memory got turned into Jonas?

[blackruzsa]

Actually, Jonas is Ironlad's armor which was infused with the salvageable data from Vision's hard drive.

Like when you put a folder from one computer into another, so Jonas and Victor(?) are two different Visions.

Gotta love being in a country where the only area ahead of you in time is Australia :D
