Why would Roberto need a new passport? Isn't he from Brazil?

[thehood]

He's been living in the US for several years now though.

I think he's a naturalised American now, which I'm not sure I would see him being keen on, but there you go.

I kinda dig this. Maybe a touch cheesy with the patriotism thing, but then again, that kinda works particularly well in comic books (and wrestling).

[nyadnar17]

I love the cheese. I love, love, love it.

[icon_uk]

My guess is that Roberto is amping the cheese up to maximum cheesage, as much for shits and giggles as anything.

[long_silence]

Roberto's not even a little phased by the Flying Cake that talks

[thehood]

He knows who sent it.

[silverhammerman]

I wonder if Al Ewing is reconsidering the joke faux jingoism of the USAvengers premise in light of recent events.

[thehood]

Going by what the first arc is about, he doesn't need to. If anything, it's fitting.

[thanekos]

Possibly the Golden Skull will end up parroting some real-world lines, in the same way the authorities of Mondo City on Battleworld paraphrased David Cameron.

Kinda surprised Larry isn't on the middle using a yellow jumpsuit.

[sindra]

Oh this is fun. Can we please keep having this fun? Please don't do anything to take it away.

Nice "Avengers Forever" reference, considering that was the first place we saw Songbird as a team member.

[astrakhan42]

And since Ewing honored half of the Avengers Forever promise with Songbird joining, I'm hoping he can complete it by bringing Genis-Vell back to life. It's been over ten years and multiple universal reboots, plus we're going to be getting a lot of Captain Marvel stuff in the lead up to her film, so it's time for him to come back.

[docfilth]

He'll have to resurrect Jack of Hearts as well.

[tigerkaya]

Jack is alive.

[thehood]

What reboots? Anyway, i doubt Genis will be back any time soon, especially since the film focuses on Carol anyway.

[zylly]

If I'm remembering my timing right, didn't they kill Genis right when they were introducing Teddy as Marv's kid? I suspect that may have something to do with why he's still dead.
