Re: Elektra in Elektra: The Hand

Note: post last edited ~11:15 pm: I just discovered the Marvel Calendar, which is a really impressive project. Anyway, the thoughts there tend to support the notion that Elektra: The Hand should occur near the end of the Enemy of the State storyline in W3 31 (albeit not exactly at the end) (see mate...

Elektra in Elektra: The Hand

I have a question about Elektra: The Hand by Akira Yoshida, which I just read for the first time. There, Elektra has apparently been resurrected by the Hand and is told the Hand's history prior to her joining them (although it's expressly noted that she will have 'free will' and not be in thrall to ...

Re: Black Widow (Romanoff and Belova) after BW5 6

I appreciate the info; I kind of suspected as much but haven't read all of their subsequent appearances. I miss the days when editorial was tighter and such things tended to actually get an explanation; I kind of wish Marvel would return to that approach.

Re: Black Widow (Romanoff and Belova) after BW5 6

Wow, okay. I couldn't help myself and read the spoiler. So I guess it probably doesn't matter much one way or the other.

Re: Black Widow (Romanoff and Belova) after BW5 6

I'm wondering if this is just a mistake by Marvel (or maybe the Marvel entries for BW just haven't been updated yet), since the Yelena Belova entry also lists her as having died as the Super Adaptoid, which fails to explain her subsequent appearances. Disclaimer: I haven't read the Marvel Comics Pre...

Sorry, just to clarify, Yelena's present entry is as follows: BLACK WIDOW IV/YELENA BELOVA BW3 3-FB BW 1 BW 2 BW 3 {INHUMANS2 5} BW2 1 BW2 2 BW2 3 (1 - 19:1) BW:DO 4-FB BW2 3 (19:2 - 22) BW3 1 BW3 2 BW3 3 BW5 1 BW5 5 * BW5 6 M/CP2 5-FB M/CP2 5-VO M/CP2 6-VO M/CP2 7 M/CP2 8 M/CP2 9 M/CP2 10 M/CP2 11 ...

Black Widow (Romanoff and Belova) after BW5 6

I just re-read Black Widow: Homecoming and The Things They Say About Her (which reprint BW4 1-6 and BW5 1-6). At the end of that storyline, Black Widow (Romanoff) and Daredevil are both stranded in Cuba, under Belova's protection, and are persona non grata in the U.S. (due to Natasha's recent assass...

Re: Two-Gun Kid question

I've been interested in the character ever since he appeared in Dan Slott's She-Hulk run. I'm hoping Marvel eventually releases a Masterworks line to make this available for the general public. I'd certainly buy any such MMW volumes.

Re: Avengers Season One

Okay, glad to hear it inasmuch as I didn't like the story in Avengers: Season One; but at the same time, now I have to get rid of all of these volumes (I'll read the rest first before deciding for sure but I rarely like these 'modernized retelling' stories, like X-Men First Class, for example. I muc...

Avengers Season One

I apologize if this question is already answered elsewhere, but I wasn't able to find an answer on a quick Internet search, a search of these forums, or on the site FAQ. Is the story Avengers: Season One by Peter David considered canon? I suspect not, inasmuch as it is not listed in the current &quo...

Re: Inhumans inconsistencies

I also see from Dr. Strange's current entry that apparently the entirety of World War Hulk was sort of shoehorned to occur between New Avengers # 37 and New Avengers Annual # 2 (which seemingly occur sequentially in the New Avengers v.7 HC, "The Trust"), which also confirms that Secret Inv...

Re: Inhumans inconsistencies

Thanks, I appreciate the response. While I generally like Bendis' writing on the whole, I find him to be looser with continuity than I would like. Although who knows if the fault lies with Bendis (Secret Invasion), Pak (World War Hulk), or someone else. Pak did a pretty good job in general IMO with ...

Re: Inhumans inconsistencies

To clarify my previous post somewhat: At the end of Silent War, Black Bolt is a prisoner of Maximus; Medusa is Maximus' love slave; Maximus has destroyed Attilan and is in charge of the Inhumans. Only Luna and BB were unaffected by Maximus' mind control powers, but BB is locked in the dungeons and M...

Inhumans inconsistencies

Ugh, I just read "Decimation: Son of M" and "Silent War" and realize that the events therein really can't be reconciled with World War Hulk or Secret Invasion: Inhumans. See http://www.chronologyproject.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3997&hilit=silent+war+black+bolt. I re...
