"I'm sure she would not let me come to harm."

I think I've heard that several times before. People NEVER see the obvious betrayal heading their way.


I like this line up for Howling Commandos. Crazy, but potentially awesome.... shame it probably never went anywhere.

Not the most imaginative bunch of names though.
Awful lot of "the"s.

(Maybe Stature and Hercules should rename themselves just to keep the theme going.)

And then Cataclysm ruined everything

[scorntx]

Pretty sure Ultimatum did a pretty good job on that score.
Cataclysm was just sweeping through the ruins looking for survivors.

Any reasoning behind Reed's team's logo? Omega https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mu_%28letter%29

Omega would seem to make more sense.

Also, is this the first time we've had exposure to the Ultimate version of the Watcher? (even though Reed is intimating that he exists across ALL versions of reality)

[scorntx]

Nope. Ultimate Uatu appeared all the way back in Ultimate Origins, and again in Ultimate X-Men for a cameo.
And I think a Watcher appeared in Ultimatum.

Oh, and Ultimate Spider-Man. They gave Rick Jones superpowers and apparently didn't bother sending him a user manual.
(that is, they gave him superpowers for a reason. They aren't just going around giving teens superpowers for shits and giggles.)

I'm guessing because it looks like a reverse version of an open-topped four. By happy coincidence, it also coincides with the Egyptian hieroglyphic symbol for water, which I believe was said to be Reed's "element" as well?

I guess? I liked that classical bit in the "Marvel 1602" story, but here, it only makes sense for read. Why are Hulk and Kang also wearing it?
"Kang is of Time, and Time as you know, is much like a river..."
"okay, and you, Banner?"
"Hulk crash like waves against rocks." "*sigh*"

[lbd_nytetrayn]

Well, they're on Reed's team like you said, right?

[captainbellman]

Oh IIIII get it! "Disassembled" because he's literally had his head torn open and played with. Haha, you're pretty funny Fialkov.
