man that empyre x-men issue felt a lot more intense and exciting than the main event and the other tie-ins, hope someone makes a thread of it soon after this.

>>116878800Finally.

Enough. I'm done with entertaining your immature ass, so here are my parting words.You and your ilk are the reason Marvel Comics is dying. You demand for every popular character to be turned into your self insert. Not because you read comics, but because you want OTHERS to read about YOU. To read about delusions you have of your own greatness. That's why you come here. To see how others react to characters that have been cut to fit YOUR mold.You're a narcisstic attention whores, that masturbate to his own reflection.But no one likes this shit. No one likes the stories with YOU, because you have nothing to offer but more whining. And that's why Marvel is gona crash and burn. Because you poisoned it with your blandness.

>>116879147It's not as good as the IH pasta

>>116879157ooooo is this the new hot pasta? be sure to post this next issue too!>>116879174Few things are

>>116879157What brought this rant on? Genuinely asking.

>>116879036cop-out, they coulda made Teddy go full radical.

>>116879397Cop-out?Are you fucking retarded?

>>116879073I feel like the Invasion of Wakanda tie-ins would have been really interesting

>>116879096>lets get it done *yawn*There are no stakes in these events anymore. The heroes always treat this like a chore instead of a challenge and if they aren't invested why should I?

>>116879157Your pasta need more salt

>>116879619why did you add the *yawn*?You know what exclamation marks are For right?

>>116878907Ben is a good man.

>>116878837Stature doing the classic Mr. Fantastic “hey remember what my superpower is?“ move.

>>116879157Sorry, this just doesn't have the same charm of the original IH pasta.

>>116878744GAYYYYY

>>116878800>>116878815>>116878837This is fucking disturbing

>>116879130i feel sad for the brainlets who bought every issue of this checklist

>>116878800"it just poured out of me"Why is Marvel comics writing gay erotica for children? Sana Amanat just what is your agenda?

I’ll give this event this: it’s the first time in several years where I am not annoyed by the event existing, I just think giving it so many tie-ins was excessive.

>>116878800WHY IS CAROL WIELDING MJOLNIR? She is an alcoholic slut and not worthy!

>>116878952MORE DAKKA!

>>116878837>>116878854gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayso is kate bishop a homo now too? Why is Marvel turning all the kids gay?

>>116878800do you realize when it’s an agenda when the scene doesn’t contribute anything to the story

>>116879413whats the point a corrution arc if it's not even him going bad

>>116880250It's not a corruption arc

>>116880262wasn't that Hulk overall holding back because its heart wasn't into the fight that much? Also he wasn't a puppetered body shell

>>116880250It's not a corruption arc, it's an arc with Skrulls in it, so obviously you'd expect impersonation... And if you followed this comic, you'd know this face right here >>116879057 is his grandma R'klll.

>>116878991>Truly this is the Infinity War

>>116878837Absolute dork.

Man what a nothing burger of an event. No wonder they never let Ewing head one before

>>116879819>Why is Marvel comics writing gay erotica for children?Because it's hot.

>>116878800hot

>>116879983I bet you actually shave your armpit you fucking pussy

>>116879819>muh childrenClutch your pearls harder, please. And yes I realize it's the same imbecile who sits in the thread replying to the same post over and over to make it seem like there's a lot of people rejecting it, but I can't get over the huge hypocrisy of someone caring about what children consume in fucking 4chan of all places.

>>116880391He can make more of these boring events, no one is forced to read them.

>>116880468This. I would rather have a dozen boring events than one more "WOW LOOK AT HOW EPICCCCC THIS IS MAN ISN'T THIS COOL" like Metal or the upcoming King in Black

>>116880295I think they confirmed that Hulk actually wanted to fight even though he was being controlled as a puppet. I'm not sure why Ben punching out Hulk was a bad showing for Hulk, Hulk was knocked out for like a minute while Ben was out cold for a good while.

>>116879840Isn't Thor an alcoholic slut as well?

>>116880478Me too. Empyre is nice and low key for a comic event. No one's trying to be meta or claim that it will change comics forever, the world's just in danger and needs to be saved and it'll be over sooner rather than later.

>>116878800>only 2 panelsMore Bill/Ted sex pls.

>>116880523nah, not saying it's a bad showing, but She-Hulk without a mind of her own to hold back, is a harder foe to take down. She's also a perpetual motion machine, no stamina or ability to KO her.

>>116880468>>116880478>>116880532The point at which Marvelfags are so starved for validation that they'll claim a boring event is good because it's not exciting. This is next-level cope.>no one is forced to read themAnd no one is reading them, either.

>>116880478>>116880532Man this is some serious cope.

>>116880595you are here bitching about it, so how can you say nobody is reading them? Empyre has actually had high sales for post-covid nonsense.

>>116880595That's not really what anyone is saying, it's more like the previous events have been hell-bent on changing things for the worse and garner outrage while doing so. It's why people are wary of shit like Metal or King in Black who promise EXACTLY THAT, to kill or maim your favorites and all by some edgelord freak nobody fucking likes.>>116880612And you have no argument whatsoever, just because people don't agree with your bullshit it means they're "coping". Also the event is actually selling well, it has received second and third printings already and it's not even over.

>>116880676Marvel overships everything

>>116880715They stopped doing that a while ago and whatever they overshipped (a few specific series to gather interest), they notified in advance. So no, they're not doing it for this. Try again.Furthermore why the fuck would they reprint an event that's allegedly overshipped? Are you dumb?

>>116878907FUCK YEAH BEN

>>116879057Fuck, don’t tell me Kl’rt is gonna sacrifice himself.

>>116880555I see, Hulk still had a semblance of mind to be cognizant of his actions and be affected by head trauma, while this 'She-Hulk' is just a super strong shell with none of those limitations.

>>116880595I never claimed it's good though.I just claimed it's better than any other type of modern event

>>116881291>No IP changeStop spamming. If you don't like it then hide the thread.

>>116879147Reed will do much better science stuff wth this Armour on field than Tony .

>>116878800Carol having dirty fantasies about Marv's spawn.

>>116881333Impossible, shitting himself and screaming is pretty much all there is left for him in his worthless life, just ignore him.

>>116879986They're cancelled now, but they were pretty excessive with it originally because this is just secret wars redux except now you fight plants instead of skulls

>>116881403Do you think Carol would be the type of person to force them to include her in a threesome because that's what Mar-Vell would have wanted?>>116881441I never read Secret Wars but this has been pretty fun. All their twists were on the nose but this is one of their better events in a long time.

>>116881421I'm gonna keep replying

>>116879157sucks compared to the hulk one. try harder

>>116879111lol the suit stretches

>>116878800>>116878815>>116878837You know, I hate the forced representation Marvel is going on with right now, but these two tying the knot is kinda sweet.

>>116878800that's kinda hot desu

>>116878907Fuck yeah

>>116881571Has Stark used unstable molecules in his suits before?

>>116881571Of course, he made the suit out of UNSTABLE PARTICLES. In retrospect it makes sense the suit was for Reed, because he's about to make a new one for the upcoming Iron Man series. It would've been pointless to make him build a suit he's only going to wear once.>>116881489>All their twists were on the noseAnd even then, some fast readers were unable to see them and thought they were blindsided by them.

>>116879036Poor Kl’rt

>>116879111that stretched out iron man armor has me rolling lmao

>>116878800>Carol wants to seduce underaged boys.

>>116881628>You know, I hate the forced representation Marvel is going on with right now, but>You know, I'm not racist but...Just stop pretending and go join a pride rally, already.

>>116881679I think the people who actually thought Billy had a face-heel turn are just retards.

>>116878837This is the first time these two aren't a badly written couple. Kind of amazes me.

>>116879096>>116879111While I think the idea of an IronMan-armored Reed is kinda neat, I fail to see why it is needed now. They are not fighting, they have to THINK a way out of the end of the world

>>116881794They definitely are, same as those who didn't see the twist of She-Hulk being infiltrated coming, even though from issue one you saw her acting strange with the hammer Quoi gave her.

>>116881781Hey, I hated Iceman being gay and Angela being a lesbian with a passion because “X character is gay now” is such a boring trope, but Billy and Teddy were gay from day 1. It’s good for them to have a “happy end” moment

>>116878800So are these made for children? Do I have to read it first to see if it's appropriate for my kids? I won't, I will pass on it. Let that less than 1% of the population pay and earn their demands with their money not mine.

>>116878800Carol is horny.

>>116881939>T+ ratingUse google user.

>>116879863no, she's still dating Absorbing Kid as far as I'm aware

>>116881999the same faggot defending this garbage every day

>>116881762>>Carol wants to seduce underaged boys.They can't be underaged otherwise Marvel wouldn't print comics with them supposedly busting a nut in each other's ass.

Good art but needs less gay shit imho

>>116882371They're Young Avengers. Totally a kid team. You can't stop her urge to ara ara

>>116882402Your little shota fetish aside (which I find disgusting), they're not Young Avengers, they got graduated to New Avengers in Ewing's run. Besides, they were 19-21 back in Gillen's run, they're not young teens.

>>116881804Im guessing hes gonna fly to tinker with the sun

>>116881939you don't have kids

>>116882401needs more imho

So how's Empyre so far? I value your opinions and want to know before getting into it.

>>116882904Pretty alright

>>116882904Pretty good, though I wish it was longer... The actual event I mean, not more tie-ins. It's gonna end next week and then there's the Aftermath, and I feel like it should last a bit longer because I'm digging it. The aftermath issues seem very promising though...

>>116882979>>116883039Right, thank you. Comics are cool.

>>116882904I'm going to be a bit contrarian and say that this should have been far bigger in scope, but unfortunately COVID prevented us from getting a ton of promising/fun books like Invasion of Wakanda and The Union. Overall I have been liking it, it lacks the utter "oomph" that Immortal Hulk and Ultimates had, but it has been serviceable fun. I'm thinking that I may have fell a bit into the "EPIC" trapping that permeates most Marvel events.

>>116882904Pretty bad, nothing really important happens art is weak and until now it only served to get bad reviews on blogs mainly due to wokenism

>>116879147To this time show Doom that he’d also be a better Iron Man than him

>>116882904>>116883039>>116883083Samefag again

>>116883145I mean it's not WOWING ME or anything, it's like a great Avengers crossover arc, but that's still good because they aren't pulling lazy tricks or anything like in those "everything you know will change forever" events, so it's a refresher.And I'm saying this as a big Ewing fan, the event is like a 7.5 where Ultimates and Immortal Hulk are 9 and 10. Part of it might be Slott though, because No Surrender/No Road Home were very fun and that had Waid and Zub in it, who are better writers than Slott.>>116883211Nah, fuck you. Go cry elsewhere about gays.

Why are the F4 and X-Men Tie-Ins so much better than the other ones?

>>116882468We're talking about Carol's blatant fetishes here, not mine.

>>116882904I'm just mad we didn't get to see the Ghost Rider tie-in

>>116883145>>116883246What Ultimates? Like, all the ultimate universe comics? I love the immortal hulk, I want to read something more that's good.

>>116878744>>116881939Marvel as a whole is gay....are there really still people spending money on that crap?

>>116883531So much better than the main book.

>>116878837>>116878815>>116878837This art is legit disturbing.

>>116878800Is this the gayest Marvel event ever?

Hmm.Is this still gay?

So is Johnny gonna throw himself into the sun to contain the Pyre? Can he do that?

>>116883773like Ewing's Ultimates

>>116883246>>116883145Word, I'm an Avengers fan so this is right in my wheelhouse but it's not 'earth shattering'. It's like on the level of Chaos War, good fun for a corner of the universe but maybe not on the scale of other events. Still, better than so many replete with character assassinations or shock deaths. And I like that it's the realization of a subplot that Ewing has been working on for years.

>>116882401the colors are fantastic

>>116883773The Ultimates series from 2015-2017 by Al Ewing, it took place right after Secret Wars but it's not THE Ultimate Universe, it's 616. It does, however, have ties to it in certain ways.And yes it's very good, although it's much more high concept sci-fi, cosmic Marvel. That team definitely should be in the MCU at some point.>>116883607And the Thor tie-in by Ram V, notice his conspicuous absence after he went "on a quest".>>116883886There's nothing disturbing about it, I don't know what you and the other guy (probably the same) are talking about.

WTF Wiccan and Hulkling actually interesting now?

>>116882904I'm liking it, like others have said already, it's not something that's far up its own ass on how important it is and how it's going to shape everything forever.

>>116884004He should be able to do that. It'll probably kill him though and then Slott will get his status quo change for the FF.

>>116879819>for children>implying this was written for children>implying children even fucking read comic books anymore

>>116885856Tony gave Steve an apology blowjob but Hickman wasn't allowed to show it on panel.

>>116885349I agree it would be stupid to kill Johnny again, but I don't have enough faith in Slott to keep his big PERMANENT status quo change for the FF to just be Ben adopting two aliens and not doing something stupid like killing a member.

>>116886548No, he also appeared in "Incoming", the Young Avengers page in fact. Said page was actually the aftermath of the wedding, we just didn't know until now.

>>116879157Huh. My outburst against attention whores has been turned into pasta to gain attention. Probably by the very same attention whore it was aimed at.I guess I shouldn't be surprised that you steal everything.

>>116886699so we can expect him to disappear again since marvel doesn't want to fork over money for the rights?

>>116886883Nah probably not, the moratorium must've lapsed. Not sure if you noticed, but the new Patriot (Rayshaun Lucas) has been gone for a while, so maybe they'll need a replacement.

>>116886883Nah, I think the page was intended to announce that he's back.>>116886934Yeah, if Eli's back I wonder what happens to Rayshaun. Meh, he wasn't much of a character anyway.

>>116886934>>116887132That would be nice, here's hoping he isn't hamfisted into garbage.

Is it just me or is marvel getting really repetitive?>everyone doing their own thing in their own comic>BOOM, WORLD ENDING EVENT>ending is anticlimactic>repeat

>>116886699Wasn't that party in Marvel #1000, not Incoming?

>>116887447Sorry yes, it was in Marvel #1000, my bad. I tend to confuse the two because they both have the Masked Rider story, and the one in Incoming tied directly into Empyre.>>116887404Ewing actually said in a podcast that he noticed how everyone was having a world ending villain and powerful dark gods in their comics, and that he hoped the oversaturation meant they stopped doing it for a while. So yeah, at least he noticed, no idea if the others have enough self awareness for that.

>>116879057Carol will absorb the sun or something

>>116879096You know, when I see Reed and Tony together, I can't stop thinking that Pym should return and join them again.

>>116886811You might be on to something, I remember seeing your discussion in the previous thread and that post, my first thought was the same as yours, the dumbass you were arguing with copy&pasted your post and has been samefagging ever since.

>>116878800Wait so Wiccan is the top?

>>116887698Ultron was apparently meant to have something big coming, it was both foreshadowed in Champions and Unstoppable Wasp before both were cancelled. I thought that was supposed to be Ultron Agenda, but with how minor it was I'm wondering if there was a change of plans, and the whole Ultron thing has been shelved, or they are saving him for a 2021 event.

>>116887559>Ewing saidOnly Ewing can do world ending villains and dark Gods?

>>116879840What even makes someone worthy?

>>116887781lol no, notice how Quoi and Cotati Swordsman are actually developed instead of being generic doomsday villains. Compare that to fucking Knull or Perpetua.

>>116887781he is the only one to do them well recentlyand Empyre itself has two villains, neither of whom are gods, and multiple other characters acting as secondary villains. It's not a singular threat like Knull or Malekith

>>116887781No, he's well aware that he's doing it too, he's just not going to do it again because it feels redundant at this point. I mean just look at what happened in Thor and Valkyrie, they literally had the "Anti-Life" (a black cloud trapped from the beginning of times infecting Asgard) and Thor has the "Black Winter", another dark cloud from the beginning of times corrupting and infecting everything, almost at the same time with no relationship. And that's only in Marvel!

>>116887863>>116887896Get the fuck out already. We need to start reporting your ass to see if mods care.

>>116883531Cause they are actually facing more than just a bunch of tree people.

>>116884004They should call up the X-men to loan Bobby, as an omega level he should be able to counteract and survive against a supernova.

>>116882904its fucking boring as hell. nothing is happening just people talking about how screwed they are for no reason

>>116888259>its fucking boring as hell. nothing is happeningBrainlet detected. How the fuck can you miss all the stuff happening not only here but in the tie-ins? Is it all too subtle for you?

>>116882904Pretty bad, and honestly the most boring event of the last 20 years or so.

>>116887845He's messing around with Gods in the guardians after years of doing the same thing in the IH.

>>116887845Almost forgot about Nyx, another dark God plus your examples, Ewing has been messing around with world ending and dark Gods for years and multiple books.

>>116888768>Almost forgot about NyxJust like everyone else, she was generic and bland as hell.

>>116879045can anybody tell my why shes wielding a hammer that has similar powers to Mjolnir

>>116888902can you maybe read the comic instead of hopping in on issue 5

>>116888808She was supposed to be a single event villain, what Knull would be in a perfect world, but isn't. There's no guarantee he's going to die at the end of the upcoming event either, and he's probably worse than Nyx (not that I think she's bad at all).>>116888902That's the Accuser Hammer wielded by the late Ronan, which doesn't have any powers similar to Mjolnir. Also this >>116888934.

>>116887781Loki, ultimates, Hulk, no road home events, a skyfather and his Pantheon on the gotg, probably more.I don't believe Ewing wants anyone to stop doing big stories, talking about self awareness when Ewing is constantly doing larger than life stories that never go anywhere is just plain stupid.

>>116878885Ben Grimm gonna Ben Grimm

>>116878907youtube.com/watch?v=btPJPFnesV4

>>116884264Ewing and Slott are better writers than Gillen, Kelly Thompson, Tini Howard and others who normally are in charge of YA characters

>>116882904Nothing works in Empyre, the villains are a joke and the heroes are a pale image of the past, the story only serves to bring the bad romance of the gay couple, which for Marvel seems to be the most important at this moment

>>116878938It’s kinda weird how Coates isn’t a part of this event considering he’s the one who came up with the whole galactic wakanda thing

116890271>Nothing works in EmpyreI don't think that's true at all. The whole thing is built from classic continuity. Bel-Dann and Raksor, from Byrne, presaging a Kree/Skrill alliance, a new twist on an old paradigm. Teddy cementing the alliance as Long of Space works from Young Avengers and Ewing's own New Avengers. Quoi turned against Earth's Heroes by his traitorous father is a new idea that tracks with previous characterization. And using the previously peaceful Cotati as the villains is another new and welcome twist on an existing property. Plus the designs are great.

>>116878800When did Holla Forums become a small town PTA screaming about won’t someone think of the children and shit? You all sound like such thin skinned pussies. As if stories never depict sexual situations between adults.

>>116891184it's a single retard who bumps the thread with samefagging

>>116879619Can you not read Tony's face? The guy is overwhelmed and trying to rally.

>>116888698Gods, not Dark Gods. Zeus and other greek gods are different from vague and malevolent ancient evil far clouds

>>116879221Jesus, what's with everyone being shocked at Teddy and Wiccan being gay? They've been fucking since the fucking 00s.

>>116891236indeed

>>116888808>>116888768Nyx had an actual motivation, it wasn't random destruction, it was a gentle night. As far as ancient sealed darknesses go, that's far better than Knull and Perpetua "I WILL REMAKE AN UNIVERSE OF EVIL IN MY IMAGE, I WILL BATHE THE STARS IN YOUR BLOOD"

>>116878966America Chavez probably teleported them over.

>>116889128Loki was literally all about Loki rediscovering himself and healing his older self who never had the chance to change. The Incursions shit just got in the way, there was nothing "grand" and "epic" promising us that things would never be the same and that this was the evil to end all evils. Hell, in both Mighty Avengers and Loki he acknowledges that Secret Wars is just another chapter of the story in the making - that stories never end as long as we keep them in our memories. That's a far better grandstanding than what Knull, Perpetua, the Black Winter and any of this nonsense will bring us, and is the kind of optimistic comic-book lookout I can only expect from someone like Morrison. Meanwhile you have Benis and Snyder just power faggotry some shit out of their asses while the multiverse still becomes an edgy shithole.

>>116878991> "We are in the Endgame now"Cringe.

>>116888698But the Space Greek Gods in Guardians are a sign of the problem, not the real problem (i.e. their changed nature is due to the complete chaos of current space politics). And they are still different from the big evil god of destruction.TOBA isn't, but that storyline was in motion for quite some time.And Nyx in NRH was Zub's idea.

>>116879840Carol is worthy because she is the bestest and bravest of all.

>>116881762Maybe we will get movie synergy when Carol makes Peter Parker her butt boi,

>>116890271If it were most important they would not have made their wedding into a rushed quickie with no major guests.

>>116887723>Wiccan: It just poured out of meLol no

>>116892071real subtle, Ewing, real subtle

btw did the Empyre Avengers issue get story timed already or has no one posted it yet?

>>116878800>this much faggotry>Johnny here If they make Johnny gay so help me God

>>116891591>Nyx had an actual motivation, it wasn't random destruction, it was a gentle night.Aka destroy everything for the sake of it while describing it in a fancy way to look deep, yeah Nyx was not even the first villain to do that, she is as generic and shallow as a villan can get.

>>116893293I think no one has posted it, you're free to do it my man

>>116893346It doesn't matter if she was the first or not because they all do that, her motivations were still different as well as the approach. At no point she arrived with the same edge to her nor the hyped up bullshit retcon as Knull or the Black Winter, she was pretty localized as an Avengers level threat that didn't overstay her welcome.I don't understand why you keep trying to ignore that and pretend it's the same thing when it isn't. Nobody but Venomfags (and that's still debatable) want Knull, but he's still pushed into everyone's faces and retconned to hell and back into a lot of "origins", same as Perpetua and Black Winter. It's just not fucking equivalent to a character that only appeared for 10 issues.

Y'know it's a real shame that Tigra wasnt in a position for her and her Skrull baby to be used anywhere for this event.

>>116894048Her son has no Skrull DNA in him. He's fully Pym's kid.

>>116893362I wasn't really all that interested in the latest issue, was just curious to see how the rest of Holla Forums would see it since im not really all that familiar to the ones featured there.

>>116878800>>116882066>>116881403I don't know if it was in YA but I recall it being mentioned that Hulkling had Mar-Vell's eyes so she DEFINITELY noticed.

>>116893333Quads of straightness

>>116894087No shit? I guess I'm misremembering Avengers Academy.>>116893333He's not gay, just real flirty.>>116894144I've picked it up just for the scant Black Knight appearances. Seems like Zub is using it to fulfill some KaZar plot points from Agents of Wakanda.

>>116894466>He's not gay, just real flirty.So gay

>>116894269that's real deep Ewing cut there

>>116878991C'mon Ewing.Or maybe he's making fun of it?

>>116878837>>116878815>>1168788003 fucking pages to shoe how gay and happy they are. Damn, never gonna get anything like this nowadays for normal heterosexual couples.

>>116878854Isn’t he like the magic equivalent of legion/franklin in power (as a reality warper)? Why can’t he just warp teddy to him?

>>116879107something with the sword? not fa miliar with it but seemed like it was punching below weight for something that important.

>>116896373You mean muties married life which either of them can fuck anyone else. Even the same gender. As I said, no more happy relationships for heterosexual couples.

>>116896420I fucking hate MJ.

>>116896424Gambit and Rogue are still married and amazingly aren’t swingers. The only ones swinging are the summers You’re just choosing to ignore shit to fit your narrative lol

>>116896434>why aren’t there any happy heteroseuxal couples :(((>shows one>omg I hate it!!! Make up your mind faggot

>>116896424it was before the new status quoand they're still married, and not sleeping around

>>116896434So you're just choosing to ignore all the shit that doesn't fit your narrative just so you can be angry. Got it

>>116896424Dumbass, that series happened between 2018 and 2019, way before Hickman's run. And they're still happily married.Actually there were TWO miniseries, and one of them lasted 12 issues.

>>116896336Wiccan is a mutie he can't use magic.

>>116897125that's Noh-Varr

>>116896420that writing is horrible

>>116894048Pretty certain both those characters don't exist anymore.

>>116887845Anti-Life is from the 7th Multiverse , while the Black Cloud is from the 6th Multiverse (Galactus and Knull’s home era) .

>>116888902Because everybody associates Viking-style warhammers with MarLel now

>>116893333He’s MarLel’s most annoying character , even more than Peter Parker and Bobby Drake , a 30+ something manchild who still acts like as if he was a teenager (Unless his powers stopped him from physically aging).

>>116896315Have you actually met the “womyn” today, especially in the USA? The half who are still straight/bi-majority-hereto are roast-beef Tinderellas and the other half who are not are LGBTQA SJW Tumblrinas , and all of them are delusional Twittertards tsk tsk tsk

>>116897478>>116897519>MarLelGet a grip. Also Ronan's Accuser hammer is not "Viking style", holy shit.>>116897467They're basically the same threat, it doesn't matter when they originated (and I doubt Cates actually cares about the "sixth multiverse" since he had that whole nonsense with the "not!DC Universe" getting destroyed, he's not clever enough for that. The sad part is that no matter what he does, he still looks as if he's ripping off Aaron, given all the similarities in both threats.Also there's no evidence whatsoever that Knull originated in the Sixth Multiverse at all.

>>116896444I don’t think they’re still married anymore , at this point they’re just co-parenting ex-spouses who still hook up occasionally

>>116897585>I don’t think they’re still married anymoreYou think wrong.

>>116897585very weird way to portray "hook up occasionally," then

>>116897576Cates may be a moron , that’s true , but what makes MarLel what it is , is that everything must manage to fit in continuity , and they do a much better job than the Distinguished Competition , because they also outsource to fanbase headcanons , re: Stan Lee’s “No Prize”. And as per Ewing’s Ultimates , Knull can only have come from the First Firmament or the other 5 multiverses between that asexual entity and the brother-sister pair of Eternity-Infinity in the 7th, now 8th multiverse.

>>116897585also here's some explicit confirmation just in case you still want to shiptoast

>>116897615I meant Scott and Jean , not Remy and Rogue

>>116897614Both Scott and Jean DIED already , and marriage is only until one party legally dies on the Earthly plane , it’s not forever

>>116897645Who’s shitposting , you Lacked the common sense so you missed the context clues to properly comprehend my post

>>116897633>And as per Ewing’s Ultimates , Knull can only have come from the First Firmament or the other 5 multiverses between that asexual entity and the brother-sister pair of Eternity-Infinity in the 7th, now 8th multiverse.Actually no, because the 7th multiverse was killed and then remade as the 8th (the "two in one"), and during that time a lot of things were in flux, including continuity... In that buffer time, things like Knull could spark since he wasn't present in the 6th multiverse, of which we only know Galactus is from. Unless Cates did a retcon somewhere I haven't read, there's no references to the sixth multiverse in his shitty books beyond what he did in Thor, and that was the "Black Winter", not Knull. I also don't think he acknowledges the existence of an eighth multiverse but whatever, a problem at a time.>>116897659>>116897647Weird way to move the goalposts because they weren't mentioned at all until you did just now. Aren't Rogue and Gambit in a healthy marriage now? Wasn't that the point, of showing that there were still examples of that in Marvel? Let alone that Sue and Reed are still married and there's no marital drama going on over there, and that we had the Ben Grimm/Alicia Masters wedding last year too.

>>116897719The fuck? Are we supposed to interpret your shitty posts now? Fuck off.
