Welcome back Anons! Last time, /cock/ happened, and I storytimed something shitty. Today, we read something LESS crap, as we read Jeff Parker's Dark Avengers.

Why the name change? Because Way wanted to write Rulkbolts, and nobody had the heart to tell Marvel that he's a crap writer
>>
Yeah, as you can tell from the cover, most of these "Dark Avengers" are the same ones that Bendis used for the New Avengers side of the "Osborn's new HAMMER" plot. Let's see if Parker writes them any better, shall we?
>>
Oh boy, the modern military in a cape book. I'm sure they won't fare as badly as the SDF in a Kaiju movie...

A brief recap in case you managed to forget what happened during the Bendis arc these guys last appeared in.

Osborn escaped thanks to a combination of Hydra, AIM, and the Hand, who joined together with him to make a new HAMMER (because reasons). These guys, and Gorgon ended up becoming his "new Avengers" but Skaar here was a double agent for Steve Rogers, who turned on them in the end.

If you've ever read the last arc of Millar's Fantastic Four, you know the deal with this. In that book, Doom's never before seen master, called "The Marquis of Death" appeared, casually beat him in a duel, and sent him back to the dawn of life to get eaten, like we saw.

At the end of the four parter, it was revealed that "The Marquis of Death's" apprentice who we had seen for a while was an older Doctor Doom, who survived being eaten by sharks, as well as living from that point to the moder day, by sheer force of will, disguised himself so his teacher wouldn't recognize him, and then killed him once he could.

Here, Parker is retconning that the Thunderbolts bumbled their way onto where he was dropped, and picked him up, where he went back to his own time with a time machine, and just LIED about what happened to protect his ego.

Welcome back, OP.

At first I actually thought I was going to enjoy Cage Max. I consider myself a fan of Azarello's work but fuck did Cage go no where fast.

The ending was laughable. Even thinking back on it now, I still can't get over how ridiculous it was.

Everything in your post is wrong. This run of issues is from summer 2012, Dark Avengers/Parkerbolts didn't end until May 2013. Waybolts started in December 2012 as part of NOW.
The name change to Dark Avengers definitely could have been because of the movie coming out at the time (got me to buy it), but at least there's a story justification for the title change, since the focus is being shifted away from the Thunderbolts to Luke's new team.

I honestly prefer Doom as a thin skinned blowhard who only claims to be losing on purpose when Reed ends up beating him again.

Yep, I totally intend to pick up some things. In Canada, we don't have a InstockTrades equivalent, so our only choices are Amazon, or the Barnes-and-Noble style store, Indigo. Everything is either MSRP, or slightly discounted online.

We do have access to Marvel Unlimited, so I have been using that a little lately

One plus side of the Netflix shows is that Marvel releases trades of the old comics. Sadly, they already releases the trades of Danny's good comics (pre-Luke Iron Fist, Immortal Weapon), so they did a Living Weapon complete collection, and Marvel Comics Presents collections.
