Shadowlands - Marvel Event

[sherkahn]

IGN has the next big event for Marvel 616 New York.



Shadowlands event solicit:

"A turning point for the Marvel Universe begins here! Daredevil’s created the Shadowland temple in Hell’s Kitchen and taken the law into his own hands, but now he’s going to cross a line from which he’ll never return! It’s Matt Murdock versus the Avengers and Daredevil’s closest allies...but they may not stand a chance!"





Frank Castle! Hole and kicking! But on who's side?

Let me answer my own question. If he's been resurrected by the Hand, then probably Daredevil's.

suggested tags:
event: Shadowlands
character: Daredevil/Matt Murdock
character: Spiderman/Peter Parker
character: Iron Fist/Daniel Rand
character: Power Man/Luke Cage
character: Punisher/Frank Castle
character: Elektra/Elektra Natchios

writer: Andy Diggle
creator: Billy Tan

That's not Frank...

Frank doesn't have a beard...

[protogarrett]

Unless the artist decided he now does.

[twigcollins]

Hey. Shooting Peter in the crotch won't solve anything.

[terrykun]

He really wants to make sure there's no May in this continuity anymore.

[nezchan]

But this way kids with no crotches will be able to relate!

[victory_or_death]

I'll admit it. I laughed my crotch ass off at this.

[nezchan]

Man, and I've even got the perfect icon!

[qob]

It looks to me like he missed.. maybe hit Peter in the left cheek

[crabby_lioness]

Watching Danny and Luke take on Elektra - interesting.

The rest of the overdone hype - boring.

[zemo]

I don't want to spoil your fun, but what on Earth is Elektra supposed to do against Luke Cage with his unbreakable skin? Wave at him until he gets a cold?

[crabby_lioness]

IDK, maybe the Hand gave her an anit-Luke gizmo.

[tacobob]

In her other hand she has photos of Luke when he was an awkward chubby teenager with glasses and pimples. Just the sight of that brings the poor guy into a flashback induced coma that can only be fixed by patting him on the back and saying "You the man!" over and over and over again. Danny will have to do this, thus freeing Elektra to do whatever she is supposed to be doing.

[bruinsfan]

Luke did recently nearly die from a heart attack... start snipping those ribbons she wears with her sai to a burlesque tune and raise his blood pressure until he keels over?

[sherkahn]

Luke also needs to be able to breathe. A puff of fine diamond powder /toxins in his face, ninja style, should do some damage, too.

[crinos]

Bet his eyes are as gooey as the next mans.

Plus, I bet Elektra volunteered to go after Cage for that whole "Crotch kick" incident.

[terrykun]

The same way vampires go after Luke Cage (old Marvel Comics Presents issue), find the soft spots. Eyes, inside the mouth, etc.

[koschei]

Ram something small and spherical down hos throat so he chokes to death.

[protogarrett]

I just can't see Elektra winning that fight.

[colonel_green]

I can't either, given some of the stuff Iron Fist has done lately.

In my head, though, Luke isn't especially relevant to that fight - I imagine a fight between Iron Fist and Elektra moving way faster than he could keep up with.

[colonel_green]

Your tags should be:

event: shadowlands
char: daredevil/matt murdock
char: spider-man/peter parker
char: iron fist/daniel rand
char: power man/luke cage
char: punisher/frank castle
char: elektra natchios
creator: andy diggle
creator: billy tan

[thokstar]

So apparently Marvel was really jealous of the Fall of Green Arrow. I'm not sure why.

[colonel_green]

This has been in the works for at least a year; Tan said he would be working on it around then. It's basically the climax of the last two years of Daredevil stories.

[thokstar]

Oh, I'm sure both ideas were developed independently. I;m just noting the similarities (and that the story idea isn't that inspired.)

[q99]

This strikes me as a lot more interesting than GA's setup.

[protogarrett]

We all know exactly what will happen in this fight: http://scans-daily.dreamwidth.org/1606220.html?#cutid1

[tzipwich]

If DD became a supervillain, would that be awful or awesome?

[colonel_green]

It's been an interesting story so far. As Diggle describes it, all the past attempts to make Daredevil crack have been about piling misery on him, attempting to defeat him, which never works - he's just that resilient. So this is about giving him power and the temptation to go awry with it.

[punishermax]

IN THIS ISSUE, THE DRAMATIC CONCLUSION OF THE SAGA OF THE CHIMNEY AND FRANK CASTLE

[savok]

A battle for the soul of a city, can't help thinking I've seen that in a movie recently...

Well, it's a small event?

[jazzypom]

That's not bad.
