Marvel Comics General

Well tEcHniCaLLy that adaptation turned Frollo into just a judge instead of a priest.

Hey, remember when a judge decided to burn a woman to death because he was horny for her?

A new Agents of Wakanda ongoing has been announed, written by Jim Zub and drawn by Jorge Molina.

Neat. I like Zub's Champions, and I like the Agents from what we saw of them in Avengers. So I'll probably be picking this up.

Question: How exactly did Black Bolt find out what his powers were? Did he step out of the Terrigen Mists, say, “That was weird,” and level the city?

Black Bolt got his powers while still in the womb, actually. Yeah, his parents, Agon and Rynda, were scientists and they administered the Terrigen to both Black Bolt and Maximus while Rynda was pregnant. When he was born, he demonstrated an early version of his abilities and so they placed him in a soundproof chamber where he grew up.

I was wondering if anyone else thinks it would be a good idea to make a page for the two The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl novels?

I really enjoyed them, and I think they might be worth their own page (or at least a bit more of a mention on the main Squirrel Girl page.) Both books were written by Shannon and Dean Hale, and focus on a younger, middle school aged Doreen Green, and are just really cute and quirky.

Yeah, I'd say they deserve their own page. They're a separate thing from the comics - Ryan North has said that they're in their own separate but very similar continuity - so it's not really accurate to lump them together.

Since it is technically a spinoff of it, should it be a subpage under The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, like The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl (Literature/TheUnbeatableSquirrelGirl), you think? Or would it be better somewhere else?

Literature/ should work if you want to make one page for all (currently two, not sure if there will be more) of them.

Okay cool, that's what I thought.

If anyone wants too help me draft up a page for it, Here's the editable link to the google Doc that I set up

Would it count as Wake Up, Go to School, Save the World (or Shady Oaks New Jersey at least), you think?

Here’s what I have so far:

Literature/TheUnbeatableSquirrelGirl

I would like to put more before I actually post it, but I want to see what people think so far.

Anyone else find it, well, let's say odd, how Agents of Wakanda has only two Wakandan characters in it?

Also, I'm not sure if a celebrity fashion designer makes for a good covert ops agent. Then again, superheroes have never quite understood how overt ops works.

Well, that's what they're called, but they're really more of an Avengers support team than anything.

Still could've used a different name in that case.

What about when that Celebrity Fashion designer can become as small of a micro-organism?

Gotta be able to see her to recognize her, and Wasp can get small enough that seeing her face is pretty hard...

...then bust your jaw anyway.

...or laser blast you in the face.

I am glad that Janet van Dyne is getting more exposure. She hasn't really had the biggest profile for the past few decades — even when she died and came back, they didn't really do anything with her. Although I really like how she's Nadia's mentor and pseudo-mom.

Pseudo-mom? Nah, she's just Nadia's mom.

Has Nadia ever actually had a mother before?

She's like most superheroes — she's got a dead mom.

"MY MOTHER IS DEAD!"

Join the club, we've got jackets.

"Dead moms! Get yer dead moms here! Half off if you buy two!"

Nadia also has a villain called Mother who raised her in the Red Room.

Watching Daredevil Season 3, I just realized... Why don't villains dress up as heroes more often? Masked vigilantes are amazingly vulnerable to a False Flag Operation. It's weird that it doesn't come up constantly.

That's the Chameloeon's modus operandi, and the Puppet Master, Skrulls, and Mysterio have done so as well in various ways.

Usually Spider-Man is the victim.
