Avengers: Children's Crusade #6 preview

Anyone still remember this?
Newsarama has the preview of Children's Crusage #6, as another group of superpowered youth muck around trying to rescue the Scarlet Witch.

It does lead to interesting reunions.

When one isn't enough. )

One Perfect Team-Up: Spider-Man and Ant-Man

Scott Lang was Marvel's second Ant-Man and (by my calculations) the person who had the name and the suit for the longest time. He's someone I'd like to see more of around here*, so to contribute to that and to One Perfect Moment week, here is one of his early adventures.

It's from Marvel Team-Up #103 (March 1981), by David Michelinie (writer), Jerry Bingham (penciler), Mike Esposito (inker), Diana Albers (letterer), and Bob Sharen (colorist). The story is called "The Assassin Academy" and, as the title of the comic and the post indicates, involves him teaming up with Spider-Man.

6 pages and 3 panels from a 22-page story.

tags that we don't have on-comm (but could have at delicious, maybe?) - creator:jerry_bingham, creator:mike_esposito, creator:diana_albers, creator:bob_sharen

* could one of the tag wranglers or mods please add the 'char: ant-man/scott lang' tag to this Heroes for Hire post? It could also do with a 'char: power man/luke cage' tag.

Preview scan and a Request.

Okay I recenty bought volumes 2-6 of Peter David's run on Hulk and decided to do some reserch on a giant red gamma monster called Madman.http://marvel.com/universe/Madman_%28Phillip_Sterns%29 Partly because I liked the character and mostly because we've got another giant red problem in the Hulk books now.

Imagine my suprise when I saw that he was one those villains that confessed his love to his adversary. Being a fan of this type I would love to see some scans of the confession.

For legality have some Kristoff Vernard. Read more... )
