At some point you gotta wonder why anyone would ever want to be publicly associated with Wilson Fisk. Don't get me wrong, I understand doing secret stuff behind closed doors, but everyone knows he's a criminal so being seen with him would be really bad for anyone's image.

>>93070350
He said so himself in the Defenders FCBD issue. No idea how he's not dead.

>>93070350

He left diamonds behind in the first preview when he killed the guy pushing the fake IGH

>>93070351
Really, Wilson Fisk's continued freedom really stretches one's suspension of disbelief if you think about it too much. Especially given how many times he's been deposed and "lost everything".

Carol Danvers seemed to think that the only way to infiltrate an anti-superhero hate group would be for Jessica to have a falling out with other heroes, go to jail, and then get recruited by the group seeking intel.
Why she needed to lie to Luke about it too, and why she kept the baby away from him when that clearly wasn't necessary or helpful at all is something Bendis didn't really think about.

>>93070564
Because the MCU called them Defenders.

Already checked that box, senpai:
>>93069304

>>93070985
Yeah, just because he's called Diamondback doesn't mean he has to use actual diamonds. Back in the 70s his gimmick was KNIVES. He's called Diamondback because of the snake.

>>93070845
I don't see how it could be anything besides Inhuman Growth Hormone. The plot was brought up in the Jessica Jones series and Alias had an arc about Mutant Growth Hormone. No mutants in the MCU, but there are inhumans.

Bendis is also setting up a gang war between Diamondback and Black Cat over in Miles' book.

I dropped Silk back when Tana Ford became the regular artist, but wasn't the Black Cat-as-crime-boss ( which totally wasn't lifted directly from the then current Catwoman arc by Valentine ) already a thing both there and in Amazing Spider-Man?

She also showed up for a bit in the Power-Man and Iron Fist ongoing for yet another gang war.

An army of crime geniuses, demons, veterans, weapon masters, living energy, demigods, mind controllers, all together, all in one group...

It's amusing that the Wrecking Crew, the group everyone mocks for nowadays being nothing but generic strong bad guys for the heroes to beat up, were one of the few villains to display any personality traits or initiative in the Hood's Gang.

>>93071454
Why would you think that?

>>93071507
Not that anon, but Bendis said in an interview that she would show up in this book.

>>93071744
Why the fuck would Tempus show up here? Other than because Bendis created her?

>>93071810
>Other than because Bendis created her?
That's probably the only reason. Seriously, I can't think of a purpose for her in this book other than Bendis wanting to use someone he created.

>>93071810
because Bendis loves to force his shit on other books, remember how many crossovers the Guardians and the X-men had while Bendis was writing both?

Remember Goldballs showing up on Spider-Man?

That's all the excuse he needs. So when he was writing X-Men and GotG they crossed over repeatedly ( and Kitty started dating Starlord ) and fucking Goldballs shows up in fucking Spider-Man.

And his cancer has spread: Pak is writing an X-book and he's writing a Hulk book so ... sure Weapon's of Mutant Destruction crosses over.

Hopeless was writing Spider-Woman, now he's taking over Doctor Strange, so Jess shows up, because of course she does.
