it's taking the 500-years-in-the-future super-team [the new defenders] from millar/hitch's "death of the invisible woman" story arc and giving them a mini-series on nu-earth. but it seems like the conflict was resolved in the first issue, and now it's just gonna be kinda sucky. and the art and feeling of the book just really wasn't on point. i kept getting confused between who was natalie x and who was psionics.
No not at all. I am talking about the recent mini that came out that called the fantastic force. It is about the last super hero team left 500 years into the future.
Which is set in the 616 and has nothing whatsoever to do with the Ultimate Universe.
I liked it. It might be interesting. Kind of a fun concept, if a little over-done... the "only superheroes on the earth," ala Squadron Supreme, Morrison's Authority, the New Universe....
I heard Kang was mentioned, but if so, it was totally offhand and irrelevant, plot-wise. I can't recall when he was brought up, if he was- I would have remembered if it was important.
Unless you just freaking love Kang the Conqueror and want to know where he is in the "Old Man Logan" universe.
thor's hammer isn't mentioned in parts 3-6, and though it might have been drawn in, it wasn't in any of the places i thought to look. perhaps it's in parts 1 or 2.
kang is mentioned "off-hand" in part 4, issue 69, by hawkeye.
"i always wondered what happened to reed and sue. we know what happened to ben and johnny, but reed and sue are still a mystery. somebody said kang beat them up and dumped them in the time-stream, but they heard this third-hand from the shocker of all people."
back on topic; how do you know that "old man logan" becomes "the hooded man"? just because it's millar?
