Ugh this whole thing is so dumb. God I stuck up for Remender for so long, telling people "No guys Uncanny Avengers is good no really" and then he just has to go do... this.

I kind of hope they keep bumbling good guy Carnage. But only if he stays a villain in everyone else's eyes, other wise it's just Deadpool 2.0.

I love that she has her high heel ready to go into Carnage's face. I'll buy any of the Carnage issues if he's like this for all of it. I want Carnage to become The Maxx.

Seriously if they stick with Evan being all regular Apocalypse it would piss me off quite a bit. Please don't do this. Still do like the inverted Hobgoblin and Carnage books, though. Deadly Chlorine fucked around with this message at 05:00 on Nov 7, 2014 |

Seems pretty straightforward to me, people liked Superior Spider-Man so they'll just do that with everybody I'm sure nothing can go wrong and everyone totally got why people liked that. I'm just surprised this event isn't called "Superiority" or something. Also, Axis #4's Avengers scenes are some of the worst comics I've read in ages. And I read Avengers Undercover.

Yeah, I don't know what Remender was thinking by having Captain Falcon immediately be an rear end in a top hat, even if it was mind control or whatever. And Steve is still Steve who should be Captain America and right now you've got a character that fell flat on his face. It's a far cry from BuckyCap who was awesome and could favorably compare to Stever from start to finish.

Steve is hung up on catching the Illuminati instead of trying to fix things so they might play that as AXIS.

I should put out four issues into this that I did make this point in the Original Post (and how terrible Kluh would be, even if Sad Hulk was a nice Inversion.) That being said I was half wrong about Axis Hobgoblin and Axis Carnage.

SirDan3k posted:Steve is hung up on catching the Illuminati instead of trying to fix things so they might play that as AXIS. Nah. Steve is going to get Nova and Spidey together since they weren't there and didn't get inverted. Which sounds like a good concept and hopefully we see Nova and Spidey kick some rear end, but I'm not gonna believe it until it happens .

The second issue of the AXIS Hobgoblin mini is an absolute treasure. I'm really going to miss this version of Hobgoblin when he's eventually turned back to normal.

I kind of like how Kingsley, despite being the hero, is just a total slimeball while Urich, despite being the villain, comes off as much more pure/honest in his intentions. Also the whole thing is funny as hell in general.

Yeah Peter being a kind of mentor to Nova was pretty great in the sense they would possibly have the same kind of sarcasm. Also Nova was pretty great as a tie in just showing how hopelessly outmatched Sam was against Kluh even though he got a great shot off by punching him square into Kluh's nostril and letting some Nova Force loose. Wonder how they're going to have the helmet fix itself.

It's got me wanting to pick up the Nova tie-in issues. I read the first few issues of his series and I'm not sure why I stopped. Kluh is so loving dumb, though. I can't believe how dumb that concept is. It's a dumb event but Kluh is next-level dumb. I think issue #5 worked better than the previous 4 overall, honestly. Seeing the inversion-Avengers going full-on evil mode was kinda necessary; previously they'd just been really snippy and vaguely jerk-ish but not doing anything with that. This time they went ahead and turned it up to 11 which is all I really wanted from this event. If this issue'd come earlier on I would be much less annoyed about this event, but instead the first four were drawn out bullshit with only a few cool scenes. (I liked Carnage's scene in 4, and the villain team-up at the end of 3 was great.) ... Now I'm suddenly wondering what the hell the inversion event actually meant for Magneto, though. He seems to be mostly just acting like himself.

Remender said that since Magneto had been driven by vengeance lately that now he was inverted to being driven by forgiveness.

Remender said that instead if vengeance, inverted Magneto is more about atonement. He cited Magneto's original face turn in Uncanny X-Men #200. Remender also called the Nova tie in a perfect comic.

From what I understand the inversion isn't just as simple as Bad->Good and Good->Bad. It just flips a core part of that person's personality.

Wait, let me see if I have this straight. Hulk has a new form that he gets into when he's sad and it's not called The Incredible Sulk? For god's sake, tell me this gets addressed at some point.

The HULK'S HULK thing is even dumber because there was already a Kluh and he was a hilarious one-off joke character in an issue from like 3 years ago. CONFIRMED: Axis would be way better with that Kluh instead. Also, this week's issue was super boring. Good lord. The speech from Apocalypse was kind of cool, despite there being literally no art on the page. Wanda looked really cool in her fight against Doom, but that scene ended before it could go anywhere. The Tony stuff felt like a retread. Not sure what the point of the Thor & Loki bit was. I don't know. The pacing on this is so loving weird. Why am I still reading it. Who am I.

What really kind of sucks is that the main focus SHOULD'VE been an Onslaught powered Red Skull loving poo poo up and having heroes be inverted by Skull, villains getting caught up in it becoming inverted themselves. The most evil obvious villain gets neutered and now we just have rear end in a top hat Avengers. I still say Magneto pulling a straight up Gallagher on Skull's skull was the best thing that happened for this event and now I wish it was the climax to how it should have ended.

The Thor and Loki bit setup stuff that happened in revolutions and loki's comic. It was also a bit redundant. This event is a special kind of lovely because it doesn't even have wasted potential like most of the last bunch. I don't even know how they would do a What If? for it. "What If a different character had been inverted?" Let's watch daredevil be an rear end in a top hat for an issue. WOO?
