Marvel Knights: Millennial Visions

[lordultimus]

A while back I posted some scans from Marvel Universe: Millennial Visions, which told alternate realities/futures of various Marvel characters. That one wasn't the only one they published; this one focused on the then-current Marvel Knights Imprint.

Some of these are pretty awful...

But I would read the fuck out of a blaxpoitation Dr. Strange if it was written by someone like David Walker.

Uhhh did someone forget to tell the artist that Ghost Rider was meant to be flameless? Cuz his head's kind of on fire yo

[laughing_tree]

The artists are the ones who do the write ups.

[razsolo]

Oh. That's awkward then lol

WHAT IF....Ghost Rider had SLIGHTLY LESS head fire??

Lol ^_^

I don't care about that so much as that they failed to deliver on Ghost Scooter Rider.

"Not since Daredevil's sex change operation has a single issue been pre-ordered as much."

Heaven help me, I'm actually curious to see that.

In other news, someone honestly thought that cyborg mosquito head Dracula was an okay thing to do. That kind of madness should stay consigned to southeast asian mythology.

So would the operation turn Matt's death penis into a death vagina, or would anyone she sleeps with become immortal?

Whereas "Cable's romance with Jean Grey" has basically been done with X-Man and Madeline Pryor. It was just as creepy as you'd expect.

That Dracula is very Mad Max: Fury Road.

What's even worse is that Si Spurrier briefly *did* give us a flameless Ghost Rider (the Danny Ketch version), and he was actually pretty cool!

This is mostly terrible, but there's a few gems in here at least. J. H. Williams III's Robot Captain America has some sweet art, and could probably work as an Elseworlds-type story. Amanda Conner's face work on Black Widow is very expressive. Head-ula's art makes a valiant attempt convince us this is a scary concept. The designs for the Cosmic Inhumans are a bit bland, but solid.

The odd one out has to be The Sentry. Did the artist not get the memo that this is supposed to be different take on the concept? Because that is literally just The Sentry. I know the character was brand new at the time, but the only thing they changed was to make CLOC humanoid and dump Watchdog.

Drac's proboscis and the ear wings could almost have worked, but I lost it when I saw his head flapping back towards his decapitated body.

The most horrific? The Black Widow with 123 kids! Arghhhh!!!!

[thehood]

Though a clone with the DNA of Natasha and Peter is kinda interesting.

These are pretty bad. I feel like they pointed to the grimm and gritty Power Pack idea from the first one and said "more like that"

[captainbellman]

I love the logic of Dracula just happening to be observing a laser experiment in a lab which also does genetics and cyborg enhancements.
