Team changes

[stubbleupdate]

Because I found the Saga one, I had a rummel around for Marvel's "team line ups" from various events. It's interesting to see who stays front and centre, who appears and who vanishes with out a trace.

The Initiative

I really do like Jim Cheung's work, even if everybody has the same face. And, for an initiative promo, The Order are completely absent. Is that Kate Bishop behind Yellowjacket and Black Widow?

Marvel Your Universe Saga

Remember when Eternals were a thing?
Somewhere I have a pinbadge with this Sentry on it.

Marvel Now!

Featuring Banner as the man who learned to live with being a Hulk, Gillen's Iron Man, Cable from that team where they all wore red, Scott Summer as Toyota Aygo and the start of Jason Aaron's Thor.

Divided We Stand (Post Civil War II)

At least 9 of the books featured here have been cancelled.

I have that Initiative image as a t-shirt. Given that she's standing next to a bunch of YA members, I think that's a miscolored Kate Bishop.

Speaking of off model characters, I have another shirt (image taken from a CW handbook) with a character that I have decided is either a badly drawn Sasquatch or Werewolf by Night. Either way, neither was in Civil War. Of course Hulk and Silver Surfer are also in that image so whatever.

I don't recognize two of the people on the right side of the Divided image. Who are the woman in the grey armor (off model Ironheart?) and blue winged guy?

[zachbeacon]

Generally I'm more interested in the things that don't happen. Didn't they say they had plans for Citizen V (not Sunspot) and a female Blade when that Divided image was making the rounds?

I think we're still sometimes finding out about DC stuff that was derailed by the Number 52

The blue guy is Mosaic. He's an Inhuman, because of course he is.

[lilacsigil]

Ironheart's early armour endeavours were plain steel, so I'm presuming that's her.

[zachbeacon]

That was my assumption but she looks WAY too old here.

Yeah, that looks like Riri's armor from here https://comicnewbies.com/2016/07/30/riri-williams-creates-her-own-iron-man-armor/

In the very end of Invincible Blade shows up to pay her a surprise visit, though.

I know one of the more recent promos had a one-shot that was set right before FANTASTIC FOUR #1. Various panels showed what the heroes were doing before their "big premieres." It included Cyclops practicing in the Danger Room and Matt Murdock punching a heavy bag. Anyone know the exact issue?

Kate Bishop is standing behind Thor Girl and Stingray on that Initiative poster. I believe that the girl behind Black Widow and Yellowjacket is supposed to be Armory (Purple hair, pink t-shirt) since that row she's in is full of new Initiative characters like Trauma, Cloud 9, MVP, Hardball and Komodo.

[stubbleupdate]

I forgot about Armory - the girl with the Tactigon?

[long_silence]

Yeah you can even see a bit of a metal hand behind Yellowjacket that couldn't be coming from anyone but her, that's probably a miscolored tactigon. Kind of a shame that they never brought her back after she accidentally killed MVP and she was shipped off to an asylum to keep her quiet about the incident.

It is weird to see Tony and Rhodey flying butt-to-butt.

[shakalooloo]

Whoever's standing behind She-Hulk in that Initiative shot is the greatest hero we'll never see.

[stubbleupdate]

Do you mean Gauntlet (green shirt, massive fist), Patriot (red domino mask) or...the guy in yellow?

[zachbeacon]

I think the yellow guy is Bengal

[shakalooloo]

The one we can't see, since she's tall enough to completely block whoever's standing between those other two! :P

[cypherfdp]

I really liked Riri's Tekkaman Blade armor. If she sticks around after Tony inevitably comes back, I hope she wears it again.

[tripodeca113]

Howard the Duck looks off.

Aw, that first one.

That Marvel Now Divided pic still makes me so angry. Gamora! Kate! Nadia! AND STEVIL.
