I'm not entirely sure if they're all gonna be worth buying, but in premise, I always liked Avengers Academy.

Horrible font, though.

this seems interesting... i hope the next reveal is better

AlmightyKfish
I'm hoping for Taskmaster at some point this week (Even though he's a villain, he could be very useful to train people, + Gage loves writing him, so there' still hope)

Taskmaster training them would be a major plus

Sweet.

Also, I like the costumes/names/general feel.

Striker goes to the same nightclubs Northstar goes too.....dance clubs. What did you think I was going to say?

I can't decide whether the name "Striker" is adequate or inane mmm

Heh! pretty much had the same reaction

He's also Canadian, which makes it even much cooler.

Next up robotic Red Skull....heh!

Original Smurph
I don't mind most of it, but the arms look like they belong on a different figure. They look made of a different material or something.

Hopefully he's badass. He looks like he'll either be enjoyably badass, or just unenjoyable.

If the reveal tomorrow isn't Taskmaster, I might die a little inside.

You assume we're all sitting here waiting to hear what you think, either?

It's an open forum. Why was there any need for such hostility and bitterness?

I'm just saying. You don't care what he wants, I doubt anyone here cares what you want, or me, or anyone else.

Two new members, and out of everyone Hazmat is the only decent looking design

I assumed this being a discussion thread was pretty clear, but evidentely you didn't catch on. Maybe I should get a mod to edit the title for you?

Discussion being you know, discussing characters who we may want on the team, and other stuff about the book.

ANYWAY

EDIT, Mungi already beat me to it.

-K-M-
*facepalm*

It's called an opinion. I prefer Hazmat out of the others, while you like the others. Does it make either choice wrong? No, it's a personal opinion as we have different tastes.

No, it's a personal opinion as we have different tastes. so you don't think striker or fortress character design is decent looking? I just find that hard to accept. but you are entitled to your opinion I guess.

I don't, their not original designs and Fortress looks incredibly bland.

hazmat is kinda just a copycat of that radioactive guy from thunderbolts...so I find her even less original...although not saying thats bad.

fortress is kinda original in the sense that he looks like red skull, yet his expression is somehow very enigmatic (you can't tell if he looks good or evil), and his huge arms make him quite eyecatching

-K-M-
Powerlevel wise I assume she is like Damage from DC, but her outfit is different from Radioactive Man (even when he donned the yellow suit)

Red Skulls has made robotic versions of himself, I wouldn't be suprized if he was one of them.

Original Smurph
Hazmat's done the best job of piquing my interest.

None of this. Disagree, debate. Don't name-call. kthx.

I'm interested in the idea of the whole thing, but these characters really aren't striking any chords with me. I'll reserve judgment until the series comes out, but I'm far from convinced.

lol at the whole previous page....communication at its best

I'm buying it, I give credit to Marvel for experiementing and trying something different

So many of us grew sick of Bendis and his endless 'events'

Is that Speedball in a new costume?

Yes.

Hmm... are we to accept that people will just be okay with him teaching students now?
