Did anyone beside me pick up this peice of crap?

When HOM happened and wanda said no more mutants, the energy of Xavier and Magneto re-created Onslaught. So in order to hide from him Franklin remakes the Heroes Reborn universe and jumps into it.

This crap ass story will make you cry if you let it.

Howard_Jones
Huzzah. Yay for Loeb and Manboobs no-feet.

King_Mungi
I bought it and have yet to read it

DigiMark007
Nah. Can't be worse than the original.

Right?

...besides, Marvel needs a good mindless villian to beat up after the drama-fest that is CW. And all the big ones are duking it out in Annihilation.

it actaully would make sense seeing as how explained by beast the energy of the mutant had to go some were so in reality it quite possible that magneto's and prof.x energy could have merged.

Damn! When i "got it" I was anxious to read it and make the first thread about it, including scans but damn they f*ed it up big time. I mean I liked the original but this is pure garbage. I thought the explanation as to how he was "reborn" is plausible but just so it wouldnt count in current continuity they had Franklin miracously have the freaking Heroes Reborn ball stash in his toy box and they end up back in the HR universe and not to mention the art is horrific. F**k Rob Liefield, F* him, F*him, that bastard shouldnt be near any major comic book character.

I HATE how they illustrated Onslaught in this mini.....

His previous form was kinda cool looking.

Now he looks like King Kong in a shiny red suit....

But this scan makes him look awful:

Why are they trying to bring back Leifeld, I so hate his artwork. It was cool back awhile ago but he hasn't grown at all as an artist.

Kid Kurdy
Awful artwork, especially Onslaught. They should have given him back his first form. That was a cool one.

Swanky-Tuna
That was terrible. I've never been more aware of something being made of still pictures.

Man ... that was garbage ... I've crapped out better stories than that.

And don't you just love the way they ignored continuity? Torch draining himself in 2 minutes, Franklin still having that ball... even though a Celestial took over guardianship of that universe/planet.... and weren't Magneto's powers part of the Collective?

Utter shite!

inamilist
For someone who is supposed to be a cross between Xavier and Magneto, onslaught seemed really dumb

Seriously, being unable to take the FF by suprise? Why not just control Sue's mind and make her choke them all out, or control them individually and walk them off the roof or make them fly really deep into the ocean?

Onslaught is such a joke, which sucks, since I think he has amazing potential as a villian

I agree. He should be a kick ass villain, but now he's just the super villain of the month.

A damn shame. He deserves better.

manjaro
dont worry it is out of continuity...(especially seeing as how ppl who are eneies in CW are teamingf up here)its just a little throwback story to the whole 10th anniv. thing

manjaro
since ive been on these boards ive never ever complained about bad writing.....until now, am i the only one that noticed all that craptastic dialogue?....thanks to jug for posting cuz now i dont have to waste my money

Not a good start. If Loeb writes The Ultimates like this, his ass will be getting kicked.

Well I finally read it...and wow, I expected little from Liefield and he didn't suprize me, but the story was horrible. Waste of money, and you don't hear me say that often about a comic

Yeah, but she ended up marrying Major Mapleleaf jr. and most likely dying in New Avengers #16. The two even had a daughter together...awwww...isn't that sweet? to bad the baby is going to be an orphan now cool

She was dwarf Puck's daughter.

I never read the heroes reborn stuff, and i just picked up this book yesterday. Can someone explain to me who that kid is at the end of the issue that finds Franklin.

And when he says that in his Universe Reed and Sue are not married nor do they have a kid... is he speaking of the Heroes Reborn Universe?

Last question: The whole deal when Hulk ripped of Onslaught's armor, and all the heroes got together to fight him... did that take place in 616 or Heroes reborn?

Jeph Loeb should stick to writing for Heroes and stop with comic books. He always writes out of continuity. Even though I liked his run on Batman (the Long Halloween and some of those stories) he's not one of my favorite marvel writers. Especially since he gave Superman that ability to see life auras and become a vegetarian. Superman should eat steak!!!

Jimmy Buggs
whats the deal with this book? When did the hulk come back?

Validus
I recall Loeb saying he writes a story to fit with an artist's strengths. Considering the Onslaught artist is Liefeld, it certainly would explain that first issue.

What the f**k? Superman became a vegetarian?

Plants are living creatures too. How does their aura taste to him? evil face

It's liek a 12 year old re wrote the story or something....

This is a mockery of a villian who already had a pretty questionable series.

Onslaught Reborn # 2 came out today and if the first one was bad, this one is 10 times worse. They turned the whole thing into a Heroes:Reborn reunion since it seems the heroes exist in both universe now.

TricksterPriest
This is so gay........ I actually liked Onslaught alot when I first read his saga a month ago. This new version doesn't look as good as the 'Uber Magneto' version, but it's not that bad. Unfortunately, the writing.....on par with Mary Sue fanfiction no GOD DAMN IT! Onslaught was cool, he doesn't deserve to be jobbed out like this. I CAN WRITE BETTER THAN THIS DRECK! censored DIE JEPH LOEB!! chair

juggernaut66666
Jeph Loeb has proven him self great again. That idiot made Onslaught fight Cap , Thor and Iron Man in a h2h fight... no expression

Grimm22
Onslaught himself is stupid, so he's a perfect character for Loeb to write

Seriously, how the hell does anyone think that the combined evils of Prof. X and Magneto in physical form is a good idea for a villan?!?

And he sure as hell shouldn't be beating TWO omega mutants (Franklin and Nate Grey)

I for one liked the original incarnation of Onslaught. I thought it was well planned, it made sense and it built up over a period of time. He wasnt really physical, he was made of ionic energy I believe, his costume is pretty much an armor as he was evolving. How he beat 2 omega mutants, well without mentioning that he was made out of 2 himself, Frankling is a kid and was easily handled and X-man was a pretty lame character.

The original Onslaught saga was pretty sweet. This new stuff... they're ruining a great character. He should be one of those villains that comes around every 5-10 years... Loeb has pretty much made him a "Super Rhino" in this... totally does not get how tuff Onslaught is at all.
