Bendis clarified that the tone will be similar to the Great Darkness Saga/Five Years Later storylines. Probably close to what they’ve been doing with Young Justice, would be my guess.

Considering he still works with Jerry Seinfeld after the latter's, let's be diplomatic and call them "dating choices" in the nineties...

Sean Howe’s Marvel Comics: The Untold Story has a great, if brief, piece about how Marvel and DC joined forces to smother a comic creators union in its infancy in the early seventies.

Would you prefer The Toys/Movies That Made Us guy?

The green suit could be a reference to Jackpot, a superheroine who used MGH (I think) and was teased to be Mary Jane during the Brand New Day era and revealed to be two entirely different women.

I hope that Jack is actually a weird alien plant person.

“I murdered the shit out of a bunch of people and also I forcibly sterilized so I would never betray my bosses whilst killing said people in case I had children but I’m a monster because I can’t have kids.”

It’s kind of cute/clever that the new Hawkeye and new Black Widow are becoming best friends.

My artist went off the last session I had with her when she overheard someone call it a gun.

Yeah, unfortunately that's the image that phrase conjures in most tattooed Americans.

Oh, 100%.

I really liked the way Jameson changed after discovering Peter was Spider-Man in the Ultimate line. There’s an Ultimatum (I think?) tie-in issue that’s written mostly from his perspective of seeing Peter still saving lives despite being completely out of his depth and it's beautiful.

“Stick and poke” (in my experience, at least) usually refers to bad tattoos done in someone's basement with a kit cobbled together by an amateur. I've been getting tattooed for the last two decades and I can't recall a single time hearing a professional (or non-crust punk) speak positively about stick and pokes.

Yeah, they're superheroes, not cops.

It’s funny that (minus Jessica Jones) the “darker” and “grittier” Netflix heroes have a lower body count than any random Avenger. Other than Spider-Man.

They almost made a show about pre-orphaned Dick Grayson, which definitely wouldn't be terribly interesting.

Jessica Jones also referenced the Raft. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. made reference to the events of Daredevil Season Two. It’s a mess, but there’s no reason the Netflix shows can’t be canon.

Speaking as someone who’s spent the last five years tending bar for brunchers, brunch is awful. Especially the post-church crowd.

You mean like Yondu between GotG Vol 1 and GotG Vol 2?
