I think,Right now she fell like she can do anything she want. Pick up people on the street and trow them around.she do it. Want sex?She just pick someone.
Moonstone's kick has always been about influencing others. And what better way does she have to influence a bunch of macho jerks who think with their nether-regions?
Of course, he was the one who started that trend with Karla in the first place. He also regressed all her previous characterization so she was back to being just a villain.
Don't get me wrong, I liked most of Ellis's run, but his handling of Karla wasn't one of them.
Why would that be smart? More than likely she'd piss him off by trying to be Linda or something and he would go all Void on her and toss her into the sun.
The frustrating thing to me is not that she's acting out of character, which she is, totally.
No, the frustrating thing to me is that Bendis actually acknowledges her past behavior nefore he wrote her and then goes on and has her act like that *anyway*. To me it says that he KNOWS he's ignoring continuity, and just doesn't care.
Or there COULD be a reason. Ala Daken hitting HER with a lot of pheromones completely changing her personality. Much like keeping someone drugged so they act out of sorts.
You know, she was in love with Clint Barton for a while. We saw her pause regarding attacking him in "The List" and she's interested in Bullseye as Hawkeye.
Maybe this actually with be in relationship to character development and still in love with the REAL Hawkeye.
I see this and I recall the smart, sarcastic, manipulative, magnificently selfish bitch she was in Busiek's Thunderbolts and it makes me sad. I recall her trying to manipulate Techno in a number different ways before she tried sex appeal.
Sentry and drugged-up Venom being skeeved out is pretty sensible, but yeah, Ares' thinking the idea is horrifying ramps up the hilarity factor tenfold.
That and he's probably upset that Moonstone hasn't given him his turn yet, since he thought she was a "fine woman" and all.
Say, I have a question: wasn't the Sentry just dead and twitching with a big sparkly hole through his face? Just read the issue and damned if I can find any explanation as to why he's sitting there alive. Or any reference to the fact it happened, if indeed that was a a fact.

Seems pretty sexist to me.
