Most people only know about Elsa Bloodstone, thanks to Nextwave, but her father Ulysses was actually a known character himself. He was part of the Marvel Presents series, which was most famous for being the first series where the Guardians of the Galaxy got their first appearances, after appearing in various other books over the years.

Well, I certainly can't blame you for that. We've read a lot of Bendis already, it's basically the worst stuff we've read (at least the weird 90s MCP and miniseries based stuff was just bland), and we probably aren't nearly half done the Bendis shit. Like, geeze... It's like nothing but Bendis for a few years after this, isn't it?

>>87291007
I imagine the Spider Kindom's 'Shou-Lao' is a giant spider that impregnates each Bride with her "Children". That gives you a creepy and disturbing origin, that would fit with canon. The reason she might not have a canonised origin, is they wanted to keep her mysterious, and thought an origin would ruin the mystique~?

So the city has no demon? Or is it a ritual to avoid having to deal with the Demon?

>>87291988
Do you really need a practical outfit when roided on Tiger Ki, superhuman martial arts, and literally tear trough steel without effort?

>>87292595
Agreed. Bru and Fraction set up a lot of super explorable elements with the Eight Cities and the other Immortal Weapons, and very little depth was given to any of it.

It's one of the reasons Swiarczynski was a let down to me. The Eighth City getting discovered because they beat Lizard Neck the Mid Boss, and the Eighth City not really backing Xao was a lot of missed opportunity.

Wait a second, if they killed that cop, why not take the opium back? Then the gang wouldn't be angry at them.

>>87297815
Not all of them seem to.

>>87302563

Then what makes them weapons? I dunno it seems strange. Especially since we know these are titles.

Shirtless Danny was clearly this artist fetish.

>>87302799
Combination of fantastical abilities and chi manipulation.
Danny, for instance, can manipulate the dragon's chi to make fire-like effect.
Fat Cobra, using the snake's chi, seems to be able to use electricity.
Whatever John Aman or the Bride of Nine Spiders did, it lets them turn to use chi to turn into mist or... whatever her weird spider things are.
Dog Brother is weird in that he didn't have to kill a monster or anything, but he is able to join in the Chi of his Dog pack, which also seems to give him empathy or a hive mind with them.
Hes not shown here, but Davis was shown killing Crane Women to use their chi to empower himself, most notably to make a new hand after Tiger's Beautiful Daughter cut it off in the tournament.
Speaking of Tiger's Beautiful Daughter, she seems unique in that she doesn't seem to have any obvious supernatural abilities like the rest, since even her other soldiers seemed just as strong as her.

Man the crane ability seems really impractical especially if it kills the women unlike Dog Brother. Danny's origin and abilities seem cooler than everyone but John.

>>87289917

Why were the kids so mad at him? Seems like their moms should be to blame here.

>>87303203
It's unknown if all Cranes are like that, or if that's just because Davis isn't a true Crane.

>>87303100
Tigers Beautiful daughter is easily the lamest in that group. Nothing she's done since the tournament seems impressive.

>>87290835
Is Spongeboy an in universe Spongebob replacement because Marvel isn't Viacom, or is Spongeboy a cheap dollar store knockoff of Spongebob that Jada has merch of because she's poor?

>>87303273

Her and Dog brothers abilities seem both the lamest but also the most martial arts like if that makes sense.

>First Opium War

Man, the Taiping Rebellion is seriously goddamn ignored in these Chinese backstories isn't it?

>>87291087
Even more galling that that- The entire tournament arc was justified as being that the winner of the tournament got to have their city get the 10 year rotation, and everybody else got a much longer like 70 year rotation instead.

>>87303637

Editorial was slacking. Especially with the Konrad story. If most people don't know about Kun Lin then how the hell did this random guy find out this info? How did no one notice or tell Danny about Fat Cobra the actor and war vet?

>>87303100

Didn't Danny do mind-melds and healing?

>>87292261
But Danny, the last dragon you faced was Chiangtang.

>>87289331
Whoa, that guy from Gambit vs. Deadpool already existed? He felt like a joke one-time character.

>>87292593
What's wrong with his faaaaaaaace

>>87292644
It almost looks like he got bitten by a were-Pepe.

>>87305766
Yeah, Fat Cobra is one of the most popular of the Immortal Weapons.
