Thanks to both Blaq and inamilist for the issues. I'm gonna be on vacation tomorrow and away from the computer most of the time so I'm glad to get to read these issues before I go.
BTW, loved the Luke Cage ish. By far one of the best Avengers issues ever IMO. Bendis has such a grip on the character and the relationship with Jessica, though he should since he created it but whatever. I didn't like the Spider-Man issue though cause Cap came out looking superior to Spider-Man. I know its supposed to be a metaphorically victory, fight between right and wrong where Spidey is wrong hence he lost, but still. Cap made Spider-Man look like a chump and it really should be the other way around
I agree that Spiderman came out looking like a chump in this. This is what pisses me off about Marvel, they made Spiderman not only hand Cap his ass in Civil War, but also Patriot, DD, and Vision at the same time, and yet in SPIDEY'S own comic, they make Cap look out of his league, even though it didn't look like any of those hit phased him, because, quite honestly, nothing cap does short of the shield should make spiderman wince. He is a superhuman, something writers tend to forget when writing Cap into these things.
It was a good issue, but crap fight scenerio.
I don't know if i'm the only one, but reading what emma did to carol, does it strike anyone as odd how much leeway cyclops gives emma nowadays? he doesn't seem to be too bothered about what she does, when i'm pretty certain had it been jean he'd have been pissed...
and emma and stark were f*ck buddies? 😘
and my compliments to the guys who uploaded those comics, i'm in your debt...

They're both young, wealthy and attractive. And they're not exactly shy. I don't see why they wouldn't be f*ck buddies. But I don't see why Emma would go for Stark... she can do better and is... 😖hifty:
lol... quick turn around there... 😛
Cheers for the scans BlaqChaos and inamilist 😄
So New Avengers shows us how Cage joined the rebels and the spidey issue tells us Peter is already having doubts about Stark and his motives, and is considering joining Cap. We all know what will happen next.
In civil war 5 or 6 Peter will get severely beaten up by tons of villains. It's also possible a friend or relative (Aunt May?) will get killed as a result of every villain knowing Pete is spidey. On top of this he will be having doubts about the costume and why stark gave it to him/how much control stark has over it. This will all result in Peter switching sides and joining Cap. Pete will be forced to return to his classic costume as his Iron-spidey one may mean stark can track the rebels down. ✅
Cap had some good showings against Spidey but his attacks werent much effective against Spidey. He took the hits, felt them but they werent strong enough to give him serious trouble.
Hmm Stark is observing Peter, yes I noticed that in The Other Story line.
Stark is a biitch. I am really curious what the event will be that Peter convinces to switch sides.
May be Aund May gets crippled or MJ.

It's Emma Frost it's what she does...it's part of her character and you cannot blame her for what she did. She makes her point very clear and you have to admit, it's very hard to try and dispute it. There are very few characters around that speak with logic Emma is one of them ie Killing Wanda, Killing the infected Astronauts.
Secondly that's what Carol gets for having double standards...and are you trying to suggest that Scott is the one with the leash around Emma's head? 😕 They're both co-leaders of the X-Men.
As for Jean she wouldn't have done what Emma did, she would have most probably helped the Avengers.
And finally about the Stark thing. I agree with X, Emma could and has done much better for herself since her Hellfire days.

I bet she's secretly doing Julian Keller. 😂

What I find even more funny is that every other writer but the one that gave him the suite and new powers seem to be using them
Millar has going invisible and kicking multiple opponents ass while using the Legs.
Sensational has him going invisible and using part of his suite as blanket to protect a meteor from giving off radiation.
FN has had the stingers.
what has JMS done? besides glide? what was the point of the Other if JMS isn't even going to use the changes he installed..
