| axumblade said: I'm not sure what angle they are really planning on taking with the iceman comic but it's been speculated that he was gay for a long time. I'm hoping its a little bit of everything to be honest. Also, Fantastic Four is over as a series. the characters are supposedly being thrown all over the place but I haven't paid much attention cause to me Fantastic Four hasn't really been relevant in decades. |
The speculation was fans and jokes and Bendis turned it into a reality because he didn't know what to do with the character and he did it by the stupidest way possible (like he forgot he can write complex thought provoking stories... he didn't do one thing good for the X-men). But you can't build the book about him being gay because that alienates all the people who don't want that. Many have wanted a Iceman solo book for years and focusing on a side of him very few can relate to won't help sell books.
Thing was in Guardians of the Galaxy as that is the big thing (as indicated by this game trailer), Human Torch with Inhumans (as Disney decided that mutants aren't the way to go and they can fully licence Inhuman super heroes so they made loads of people Inhuman). The rest are rebuilding the multiverse apparently....which sounds like bullcrap but after Secret Wars, what do you expect, actual clever writing?
... man I sound cynical when discussing Marvel comics.
Hmm, pie.
