Should you fear the Reaper?
>>153448053
>>153448074
>>153448081
>>153448094Once you look past the heroics they really are one big swingers club.

>>153448134
>>153448145
>>153448164
>>153448182And that's it for this issue. If you enjoyed it then consider purchasing it from your retailer of choice or whatever.
>>153447989Simon, you were dead for that entire period. You didn't meet Wanda until after the two were married.
>>153448201Holy moly Patsy
>>153447989Randolph's possible fake Origin is also like Moon Knight, but with more direct Magical intervention
>>153448112When did Simon date Jan and Natasha?
>>153448017I hate hate hate Grim Reaper with a passion, would somebody please update his '60s costume for the 2020s? Its more laughable than classic Electro and that one gets picked on all the time.
>>153448872It can get worse.
/co/ should make a compendium of all WM’s best content from when he was still white, since you already know that’s over now.
>>153448872you sound 12, go play in traffic.
>>153448963I liked when he died.
>>153447944Let's not.
>>153452375You're too late.
>>153448624Not sure if this is an intention "Wonder Man has memory problems" moment or Duggan just screwed up. This makes him look an even bigger dick than usual.>>153448851>off-panel hook-ups you never knew about retconned into the pastThe old Bendis Special. Whenever this kind of thing happens I prefer to think the guy is just lying to make himself look like more of a Chad than he really is. Wonder Man did go to pieces when Jan was thought to have died in Secret Invasion thoughever. I can't remember any notable interaction between him and Black Widow outside of the time she somehow defeated him in Contest of Champions 2, maybe he thought that was a date.>>153448872Grim Reaper and Electro are both supervillain costumes that filter out people who can't into supervillains.>>153448963It'd mostly be all the times he died though.
>>153447944Why is he white?
>>153455098In the 616 universe Simon Williams is caucasian, in the ultimate Universe he's african american. Disney decided to blend the two together for their live action series but that just resulted in an uninteresting, poorly acted show with the main character's most interesting trait being talking like a faggot.
>>153455098It’s based off of the original movie.
>>153448027It's weird seeing Grim Reaper being written so low-key when he's an insane maniac, a very hyper specific racist and all around violent chap.
>>153448040>Spot wants to be paid in cryptoMy guy, what are you doing?
>>153455231He's getting better so he can be an Avenger later.
i know this board hates Duggan but I liked his West Coast Avengers and this is honestly a decent coda to what could have been a year 2 for that book.Its nice to have one last Simon book before Marvel buries him 6 feet under for the crime of being different from his Disney streaming slop synergy
>>153455185In the original ultiverse Wonder Man was Ben Grimm
WHAT THE FUCK!? DID MARVEL SERIOUSLY WHITEWASH WONDER MAN????!???
>>153448017>Eric tried to feed Wanda and Vision to Shuma-Gorath>He now thinks maybe he loved Wanda, or wants her just because his brother didIs Eric losing it even more than usual? Does he even need to make excuses for falling for Wanda or is that just the natural state of man?>>153455231It's odd that Marvel LA is so weird that a significant Avengers villain can just walk around in full costume and people just think it's a cosplayer, and are happier to see him than his brother.
>>153456134She just has that effect on people. Bewitchingly beautiful. I wouldn't look too deeply at the later. While LA is full of weirdos for the costume people, being mistaken for a cosplayer is just a stock comic book joke.
>>153456134>>153456503it's also really funny to realize a tried and true racist like him is having a Frollo crisis by falling for a gypsy
>>153457384You know Grim Reaper's usual love interest is a black albino, right?
>>153457411yeah by his own admission he was like "you're white enough for me, babe!"
>>153455249Spot isn't exactly the brightest villain. The only reason he isn't an Avengers level villain is because he's too dumb.
>>153457411I wonder if normal people's first thought about him is that. It comes up a lot on /co/.
>>153448872>Its more laughable than classic Electro and that one gets picked on all the timeBy midwits
>>153448872Boring twits like you are the reason so many superhero costumes were lame Kris Anka shit or guys parading in balck leather and trenchcoats Instead of actual costumes with actual personality.
>>153455185Isn't the Ultimate universe where Simon Williams was another Hulk but unstable and part of the West Coast Ultimates.
>>153457504didn't Doc Ock tutor a bunch of Spider-Man's rogues once and their threat level jumped exponentially? Spot need to hit the books, though to be fair nobody knows his power better than him.
>>153447977>>153448729...how many characters have the same origin? Guy gets into trouble, stumbles into ancient temple of some kind, the local god/demon gives them superpowers.I feel like that is possibly one of the most common origins.
>>153448872The weird head fins didn't bother me nearly as much as his insane idea that he was Simon's rival. >Guy who is an immortal Thor-level physical powerhouse>Guy who has a fancy blade on his wrist that spinsThey are not in the same league at all here....
>>153448872It's not even about the costume. Why the fuck do writers keep bringing him back? He's a boring ass character no matter how many times he returns with a new gimmick. I have never seen a single person claim to be a Grim Reaper fan.
>>153455185>replying to obvious bait
>>153458756>what is sandbagging
>>153458735To be fair, his first appearance was against an Avengers team where a trick weapon was good. It just is that his bro is one of the top-tier guys that even learning magic and buffing his weapon's powers still puts him on the backfoot.
>>153458735Grim Reaper is superhuman and has (or rather, had) a bunch of different powers, though the writers never seem to care about keeping his powerset or threat level consistent
>>153448112>The 80s red jacketSo is this just nothing but references? Darkhawk, Grim Reaper, Spot, Bar with no name, Killerwatt (who didn't know Firestar, that was Bolt) and Firestar mentions
>>153458792>Killerwatt (who didn't know Firestar, that was Bolt)They were literally lovers in Duggan's WCA fym
>>153458719it feels like it was a standard set in a lot of ancient myths and legends, though rather than receiving power it's powerful individuals like Hercules or Theseus who find themselves charged by their gods to complete various tasks/trials.>>153458792you heard him guys, you have to use Wolverine, Spider-Man and Hulk to tell a story, no one else.Fucking moron.
>>153458745His gimmick was over a really long damn time ago. The whole wanting revenge thing stopped being important the minute Simon came back to life. And the vampire thing was kind of pointless.
>>153458719Juggernaut, Golden Age Dr Fate, Golden Age Blue Beetle, Metamorpho, kinda sorta Thor back when he first appeared, Captain MarvelIBACthere are probably more than a few villains
>>153458820Hows about not wasting time namedropping anyone at all and just let the main character be a main character.
>>153458820>He has to be referencing SOMETHING every other page!!!!Are you retarded? Like seriously, are you actually retarded? Genuinely want to know are you fucking retarded or not here.
>it's another "let's randomly make Hellcat a love interest for a character she never ever had any chemistry with, or even fucking interacted with, at all" episode
>>153458892She's a romance heroine. I don't know what I'd want from her in a pairing though.
>>153458820Oh poor stupid little zoomzoom, you don't know what it's like to read a book that is not a pile of nonstop callbacks and references.
>>153448008I love palm trees
I like it.
