Well, that actually fixes it then.

And the later stuff concerning Tweak goes straight into 'Touching'. And a significant part of the last parts of the Cursed Earth Saga go alternately into 'Badass' and 'Touching' with a little 'Funny'. The whole thing is a REALLY good book.

I can only speak for the DS version, but the Brave and the Bold video game has you able to unlock the costume late in the game! Every time the screen transitions, or comes out of pause or whatever, you're a different color! :cool:

Nope. She's usually at best very forced-sarcastic in a Bendis way, but most of the time she's just boring and complains a lot about everything.

Only DeConnick writes her like that to my knowledge, she tends to be more neurotic. You should still check out Bendis' Spider-Woman: Agent of SWORD mini, though. It's great.

Sidenote, but while the art in that Avengers: Enemy Within issue isn't fantastic, it gets serious points for being a superhero comic featuring two female leads that's not even remotely cheesecake-y. Seriously, there's not a single "sexy" drawing in the entire book. It's impressive.

It should be noted that series takes place after Jessica comes back to a workd where the Skrull Queen has personally been impersonating her for several weeks/months, so it isn't a happy-go-lucky book. It is a very good read, but it isn't a fun read like Avengers Assemble.

No way it totally makes sense! See, that's Cowlick the Giant Floating Space Cow Head and it's the only means of transport between Earth and Stump Asteroid where a sentient tree stump runs an intergalactic professional wrestling promotion that the Turtles were once kidnapped and forced into and Raph's been wearing his old wrestling gear to be a vigilante on the side outside the normal team but now Cowlick's come to take them back to Stump asteroid I think because Leatherhead, who is no longer a villain and found his calling as a space wrestler, needs their help with something.

Also Cowlick has to swallow them to take them through space.

Totes makes sense!

It must feel good to let that out after carrying it around inside for close to 20 years.

And for the record they are getting ready to return to Earth from Dimension-X where they had teamed up with Leatherhead to find the Turnstone for the goddess Cherubae.
