There's not much that can be said about this without sounding a little gross, so I'll just say that if this being played straight then it's a pretty trite reveal to be honest. I have to expect that this is a fake out though, because I really do think Mark Waid is too good a writer to be so cliche.
i agree. i think it's a misdirect. i think we are MEANT to think this is what happened when, even if you look closely at the scene, it can be read many ways.
I think so, in fact: after all, there's a difference between seeing all of this in context - the way Uatu originally did - and getting sparse, simple flashes the way Matt or Thor did.
Knowing Waid, he is going to surprise us with something, unless editorial fiat causes everybody to act (again) like a bunch of fools. Given the way some of the individual stories are developing, I'd say there's a little hope left.
