Clearly the sequel to Avengers: Endgame will be Avengers: End 2 End.

Step it up, people.

(Sorry)

"He wiped out 50% of all living creatures"

Wait really? did Thanos kill half of the plants and lichens also?

What an asshole.

The trailer makes a lot of sense if you assume the survivors have problems with gut flora.

god damn it

i can only read that to the tune of the soggy bottom boys' rendition of 'in the jailhouse now'

I've seen folks online bandying that around as a possible title for a while.

(Among, it must be said, a great number of other, much dumber titles.)

I was kinda hoping for the unlikely Avengers 4, with a blue '4' in a white circle.

fox deal's not closed yet buddy

They had the chutzpah to film the Spidey scenes for Civil War before that deal was finalized! Anything is possible!

aw man, what a move

The appearance of Ronin, and a presumed dead Ant-Man turning up at the front door, makes me think they're moving into an era of Avengers that I really don't want them to move into.

Yeah, once the MCU starts riffing heavily on mid-2000s Marvel comics you can count me out ohhhhhhhhhh wait

There's mid-2000s Marvel comics, and there's Bendis-written mid-2000s Marvel comics...

wait wait wait are you not a bendis guy

i have never met a not a bendis guy in my life

bendis sick stunt

He's by no means above reproach (he did a fantastic Sleepwalker impression for most of the last 4-5 years he was with Marvel, for just one example), but his Avengers run was pretty tight.

And it's not like the MCU has done a straight adaptation of any previous Marvel stuff.

fuckin' bendis, man

'Wait, wait, wait'
'What?'
'Are you not a bendis guy?'
'A what?'
'A bendis guy?'
'Um, no...'
'I can't believe it'
'I can't believe you're a bendis guy'
'I have never met a not a bendis guy in my life'
'What?'
'I said I have never met a not a bendis guy in my life'
'I can't believe that either'
'What?'
'I said I can't believe that either'
'How could you be a not a bendis guy?'
'How could you be a bendis guy?'
'I asked first'
'It's just...'
'How could anyone possibly be a not a bendis guy?'
'I just find his dialogue kinda repetitive...'

That reminds me, I need to check the library for new Powers.

worst origin story ever

Excelsior!

'Wait, wait, wait'

[in the background Kevin Feige and Joss Whedon are having a coffee]

Okay so now that the cat's out of the bag re: the title my question is: was it really necessary to keep that poor cat in a bag for months and months? Like I can see them wanting to keep Avengers: Genocide-Reversers on the QT but exactly how is Endgame meant to leave us shaken to our very core?

It's not exactly up there with the Civil War reveal

The title is so shit they were just too afraid to reveal it sooner. Case closed.

It's true, the world may not be ready for a scat-centric Avengers flick.

i have never met a not a bendis guy in my life

Bendis is mad overrated and always has been.

this is strong truth

The first thing I read by Bendis was Alias #1, which everyone I associated with who was into comics was having orgasms over and talking about how wonderful it was. I grabbed a copy in the comic book store, opened it up, saw that Luke Cage's dialog had many instances of the word "nigga" in it, then saw the main white woman character have an internal monologue about her self-destructive, self-degrading qualities while Luke fucked her in the ass.

This may be the makings of a prestige comic to some but it's not one to me.

But anyway, let's get back to what's important here, which is Clint Barton chopping up the Marvel universe one limb at a time.

MCU have good form for taking bad Millar/Bendis ideas and improving on them

DJP also OTM, Alias is unreadable

bendis? like, fuck him

i'm just a miles morales stan but that alias excerpt sounds pretty inexcusably bad

Yikes, I've had a damaged copy of Alias that I've been meaning to read for a couple of years. Think I'll just let that one go.

I am a big fan of Miles Morales! Not so much of Bendis, though.

I think the character of Miles is great, and that his corner or the universe has grown well... but I don’t think the stories, past the first couple dozen issues, have been any great shakes. I like what other writers have done with him more than Bendis (beyond the first ~ year). I think a huge part of the charm has been the art, especially the work of Sara Pichelli, who I wish would come back. See also: Silk
