So was Hydra Cap the real Cap or the one in the cube?
>>
That they didn't do much for showing Hydra United States as a bad thing. It was already a fucked place of warring states focused entirely on political in-fighting. Even showing a rebuilt world compared to ruins that the """good guys""" wanted to make the reality.
>>
>>95000438
Hydra Cap is the real one and the New Cap is one that Kobik remembers.
>>
>>95000372
I think the narration was the blandest part of the event.

>>95000372
The ending or overall? The ending is exactly what I expected. Overall? Disappointing considering how good the lead-up was, but it was pretty much your standard Marvel event in terms of quality. A handful of good scenes, a couple solid issues, but overall not worth reading.
>>
>>95000481
Live with that, I think.

HydraCap is now the Captain America-Prime of Marvel, I guess.
>>
>>95000480
Im sick of 3rd person narration in comics, and Marvel clearly can't write it.
>>
>>95000508
We never mention that event.
EVER!!!
Teen Tony is still technically the main Tony, that's never been reversed.
>>
>>95000533
i gotta imagine they merge at some point, right?
>>
>>95000481
Hydra Cap is gonna probably get the Red Skull's mind and then we'll have movie synergy once again! Really it's Spencer pulling a Gruenwald.
>>
Couple things:
>Good Steve giving the hammer/shield to Sam and Jane is just wrong
>Splash paint wanking over every hero except Cap
>That kid holding a Captain America Sam action figure at the end even though Sam is returning to his old duds
Also weird bit, after that history erasing thing, Riri is no where to be found on that page
>>
I felt nothing. It was bland, almost offensively so. But so bland that I wasn't even mad.

Cap coming back should have been something but the way it was handled was just so lifeless.
>>
>>95000551
No, Hydra Tony will become the new Red Skull.
>>
should have been the result of Reed Richards putting the multi verse back together wrong.
>>
it was... ok? like it wasn't CW2 bad but it wasn't groundbreaking either. Like I'm just not sure what the point of it was. I know there was obviously some Trump subtext and it was all about how putting too much trust in one person can go wrong but I just don't think they delivered the message properly. If Trump, in all of his insecurities and tantrum-throwing, were to read this, I don't think he'd feel personally attacked.

As ironic as it is, i feel like this anti-censorship story had a lot self censoring going on- both from Marvel and Spenser. Like there was so much backlash just going into the story that there were probably several rewrites and focus groups brought in to make sure that no one was offended, that they just made a story with no end game. you can tell they wanted to be a lot more extreme with the story, but had to reel themselves in to avoid too much backlash

Also, does anyone think they were way too hard on Hydra-Cap? Not that he wasn't an evil bastard or anything, he certainly was. But it was established that HC was literally our Cap with his memories rewritten in all os Spenser's stories. Then a new completely different Cap comes in and beats up and replaces the old one. But the old Cap was just the main Cap with memories altered. Its like if you had Alzheimers and started acting different and then your twin replaces you after kicking your ass and everyone declares your twin to be the new you. It's messed up a bit if you think about it. Or maybe I'm just looking at it wrong

What I want to happen is that someone corrupts AI Tony with AXIS magic to make him into Superior Tony and the Superior Avengers come together. The reality is probably
>>95000584
>>
>>95000584
Speaking of, if Gruenwald's Cap was ever referenced in Secret Empire, then that's a Bingo I think.
Did it happen in #10?
>>
>>95000545
Teen Tony got reversed after Heroes Reborn/Return due to Franklin Richards somehow combining old Tony, Teen Tony, and Reborn Tony into one being.
>>
>>95000697
we already got a bingo with the last issue
>>
>>95000372
Spencer should have stuck with his original idea of Falcon beating Hydra Steve and becoming the permanent real Captain America

Backtracking because some pathetic fan boys cried online is a bitch move
>>
>>95000756
>Marvel should change
>Marvel should have balls and ignore fan backlash
Which do you want, anon? Because personally I want Sam back as Falcon. But even if he didnt, I doubt Marvel would write him any better regardless
>>
>>95000755
I'm hopelessly edgy and all, but the Hydra version of The U.S seemed a fair bit better than before.

So how salty do you think Nick is that Captain Falcon bombed and he's being demoted to Falcon again?

I mean, this event was to prop up Sam. And it still failed on that. And now Steve is staying as Captain America.
>>
>>95000551
No. The Cap Waid is writing is basically a new copy without the taint. Remains to be seen if he has all the memories.

While Hydra cap gets the baggage. Real but mentally altered.

Honestly felt like the torch was passed to Sam even if he isn't cap anymore.

Considering it's looking like this was his last Marvel Comic (barring Not Brand Ecch which doesn't really count), I doubt he cares. Not like he'd be writing Sam, Falcon or otherwise, anyways.
>>
>>95000756
Why bother? He already wrote him as being way less effective and charismatic than Steve. The change would just get rolled back anyways.

So much so that I got hypertension from reading this event.

Well he doesn't have any books as part of Legacy, and the only book he was rumored to be on was taking over Amazing Spider-man at #800, but Slott is building up to Maximum Carnage II for next summer so he's clearly not going anywhere.

The 90s honestly didn't have many events. The two big events of the 90s were Onslaught Saga and Infinity Gauntlet, and IG is the all-time best Marvel event while Onslaught Saga was pretty good.

We don't talk about The Crossing.

You might want to recheck your facts

>>95001690
There were CONSTANT crossovers, but not so much line-wide events.
>>
>>95001666
It's also worth noting that in his 7 years as the sole ASM writer, Slott has never once used Carnage. The only other noteworthy Spider-villain that I can think of that Slott has never used is Judas Traveler.

And it turned out worse.

>>95001811
I want to say Civil War 2 as well but although that was bad at least stuff happened until the ending pulled a poochie. This was literally a ten part event where the only thing that's happened was las vegas got trashed.
Plus spencer's captain america can pretty much be ignored since waid's cap will pick up as if that never happened .

Spencer is getting his turn at doing this in Not Brand Ecch. Few pages of him taking the piss out of himself, then off to Image to live out his days. It's funny that Hickman mentored Spencer then Spencer proceeds to pull a Hickman on a smaller scale.

Hydra's big on Punisher's brand of justice. It requires him to ignore all the other things that make them Hydra, but I don't think it's completely unreasonable for him to join up.

what grinds my gears is that kobik is also indirectly responsible for the deaths because she was the one who fucked with reality in the first place. There's no reason to burden the heroes for the mass death because it's her fault.

I could stomach all of it until the very end. I get that they want Captain Falcon to be the new Carol and shoved down our throats, but saying he is the "true" captain america kinda pissed me off. I thought the legacy character bullshit was supposed to end.

So why was Bad Steve losing the fight? I mean he still had the shield + Iron Man suit and they're both equally skilled, also why did bad Steve acted like he had brain damage "Oh Falcon is on my side now and no way this can be a trap" and when he was fighting good Steve, he fucking throws the shield right at him.

Yeah I 100% argee. I think what they want to convey is these heroes meeting the legacy heroes in moments were they didn't have their shit together, so they can see how the real situation was played out without anything being left out.

Anyone who buys a Marvel comic after this is a moron. Marvel doesn't care about you. They don't care about telling good stories. Of fucking course this was always going to end with a Cosmic Cube reset. Of course the legacy heroes would get shilled. Why did Thor's hammer get altered? HOW?! Fuck you, we're Marvel, that's how.

Don't buy their comics. They don't like you. They don't respect you. They lie to you, they belittle you because they know you're going to keep shoveling money into their mattresses so that they have something to lay on while they're fucking your mom. Don't buy anything they make. You like Moon Knight? Don't buy it. Think X-Men might be getting good again? It won't last. Because they don't care. They will do this again in a heartbeat to the characters you love. They will stick Spencer's or Bendis' or whoever's dick right up your ass because you always say thank you after they take it out of your throats.

But of course you're going to keep buying. You always do. Maybe this time it will be different. No more events, no more hero vs. hero, a return to form. Or maybe, just maybe, Marvel are lying to you to get your money. Now which of those two choices seems more likely? Fuck this trash and the clapping harp seals who allowed it to happen.

So, Kobik removed Stevil's reality warp, removed the TrueHydraPast bullshit, but left the scars of war (Widow and Rick dead, Las Vegas bombed) so that "the lessons would remain".

What lesson was that, again?

"Don't let Kid Gods rewrite reality according to the whims of Nazis"?

Good moral. I'm sure Aesop himself would have been proud.

And his life was fucked big time by it.

Thor grew some spine at the last minute and Frank never had anyone's respect, so he didn't lose anything, but Deadpool got fucked in the ass.

He kinda deserved it, to be honest.
>>
>>95005022
I can agree with the superfluousness of the tie ins. Ending was shit as well. That's a major problem for most big events. I like the postulations of Doom personally though. Doom fag I know. I really can't complain with Ribic's art, but I also didn't read much build up.

It isn't a masterclass in events but I'd still say it's a contender for top 10 good events.

I can picture the way Spencer was thinking:

>"If I just use the Cube to make everything back to status quo again, they'll cal me a hack! I need the SE events to stick!"

But he forgot that by tying the Cube's undoing of Hydraverse into the ending et al he became an even bigger hack. There was no reason for Kobik, who finally understood it was all her fault, to NOT undo the SE events entirely. So, Nick arbitrarily decides that "she wanted the lessons of the war to stay in place". Ergo, decided it was not her fault after all!

Why didn't he just make her sacrifice herself in undoing Stevil's final super-warp?

>>95000372
Strong start, went bad bland during/after attack on the mountain, ending wasn't CW2 like some faggots are suggesting but it was so blegh. Needed more hydra focus imo. Showcased that Spencer can't juggle narratives with multiple groups and that any future work should be relatively self contained, because when he does put his focus on a group it shines prymtron ongoing when?.
>>
Probably one of the worst events ever, but Its hard to really give a shit at this point, even to hate it.

Its like its at a point where I can't even pinpoint how much was bad about this, it was just kinda shit in too many ways.

Makes me wish Marvel had any concept of viewer feedback for their stories where they could hear from people telling them "This was shit and here's why, and here's how to change it" but I know those companies aren't really interested in making real stories anymore. They get off on people telling them its shit, to them that's a success, having people hate the story is a success to them because it means people are still talking about it, which tells me I shouldn't even do that. The only way I can make them change what they're doing even slightly is to stop caring entirely.

I think even supporting stories I like still filters into them giving stories like this more power in the long run.

So did they keep Natasha dead so Miles can finally have a unique code name?

Granted, I can see Bendis being pissy as fuck at being told that Miles can no longer be called "Spider-Man" but has to be referred to as "Black Widow" but given Bendis' role in the last three years worth accelerated collapse of Marvel, that's got to happen to at least give tacit knod to Marvel punishing Bendis for his role in this farce right?

Spencer left us with HydraCap and a construct based on Kobik's memories.
>>
>>95011438
Yes.
>>
>>95011438
Steve's been Donna Troyed, after what happened to Donna (killed and brought back as an idealized form by Wally West) in Byrnes Wonder Woman
>>
>>95011438
To be fair, who isn't?

Iron Man died during the Crossing and ever since Heroes Reborn, a Franklin Richards construct (with a goatee and not a mustache) has been running around

Spidey died and now exists as a being with second-hand memories of his past gained back via Dr Octopus

Yeah, why did they do this parallel? And they also had lines from the CACW movie - "This shield doesn't belong to you".

I mean it's just to watch how upset Iron Man fans are getting over this parallel. But what purpose does it serve? Show Tony was a fascist in Civil War I? Rehashing that from 12 years ago? Or trying to answer the MCU movie?

Poorly written, way too many asspulls to movie the story along. Also how does Spencer not know show don't tell? Just pointless monologues. Mediocre art too.

Tony Stark A.I. Was the biggest fucking fail of the event. I don't know what was going on behind the scenes, but it's obvious someone fucked up big time. Spencer wrote Tony into the story in a huge way. So much so that he basically got resurrected for the event. Marvel editors are a fucking joke.

bendis wanted him dead but was cockblocked by spencer needing tony
>>

But where is real Toni Stark?
>>
>>95014955
Carol turned him into a vegitable after Civil War 2. Beast couldn't fix him because he has "too much shit in his body that he implanted into himself". So now he is just a downloaded piece of software that has consciousness and will soon become a villain with the next 2 years, possibly causing the real Tony to wake up. This of course matters on the sales of Generations. Generations of course being their soft reboot of Marvel.
>>
>>95015002
I know. My point is that you'd think Spencer or Bendis would hash it out at a writers meeting, or an editor would step in to smooth things out. Marvel events are planned so far out in advance. The fact that two events fucked up this hard with cohesion and world building speaks volumes about the staff of Marvel.

Don't trust in heroes ever again???
