Preview here

Johnny's such an idiot and it annoys me to read anyone like that. Looks like Mom's infatuated with Namor. Preview showed nothing... I hope the issue's good.

Cool. I wouldn't say Mrs. Storm is infatuated with Namor, least not from that preview only. I do like the quick jump to action with this issue, after last issue's setting up the story. I expect this to mostly be a fight issue, probably continuing into the next issue, with either a resolution in the form of an alliance or a new enemy (probably the latter with the news of Ultimate Invasion for next year).

 

[Ice]

Preview looked alright to me, artwise. Still love Land's art. Hate Johnny's hair.

 

[Guijllons]

That looks quite entertaining. And I'd certainly say that Mrs. Storm does look like she's infatuated with Namor.

Are we going to see her get passed over for her daughter? Oh yes, I do think so.

 

[Goodwill]

I'm really bothered by this preview. Millar has really dumbed down this title to the point where it's not fun anymore. Not that Ellis' arcs were essentially elementary at their core, but Millar's predate those years... He's going at a more kindergarten level enthusiasm with these stories. I am annoyed that Johnny is reacting the way he is, and I do not like the dialogue between Mr. and Mrs. Storm. It's weak. I don't know what the hype about Millar is, even with the Ultimates. I don't really care for his writing style.

 

[MaxwellSmart]

I like the art for Johnny. It's almost total orangish-yellow and black, which looks surprisingly bad a**.

I stand by my initial assessment that Mary Storm is an uncaring, heartless b****.

 

[Spade]

so who do you guys think is burried in the tomb of Namor? the synopsis makes it sound like someone else!

 

[John Q. Public]

Same guy buried in Grant's tomb.

 

[Ultimate Houde]

Burn dig breath!

And the least we can do, since this is one the front page, is spell preview right

 

[Ice]

Preview looked alright to me, artwise. Still love Land's art. Hate Johnny's hair.

And now that I have actually read it....


WTF?

Namor comes out and suddenly Johnny attacks him? WHY?! That made no sense. The mothers expression didn't go right with what she said.

 

[Goodwill]

Johnny attacks Namor, man... That's more stupid.

 

[Ice]

Johnny attacks Namor, man... That's more stupid.

I can see maybe if Namor started attacking the ship or something, but he didnt do anything!! There was no reason for Johnny to attack. :noway:

 

[Goodwill]

I know... Like, Mr. and Mrs. Storm shrugged that off, too... They weren't all "Johnny why are you a retard?" they stood there and talked about who that person Johnny was fighting was. Stupid. Millar is stupid.

I agree.

That looks quite entertaining. And I'd certainly say that Mrs. Storm does look like she's infatuated with Namor.

I'm not saying its not the case, just didn't pick that up from the preview pages.

Are we going to see her get passed over for her daughter? Oh yes, I do think so.

Most definitly.

Thats because you're a Communist.

so who do you guys think is burried in the tomb of Namor? the synopsis makes it sound like someone else!

I'm pretty sure it was just Namor.

I can see maybe if Namor started attacking the ship or something, but he didnt do anything!! There was no reason for Johnny to attack.

It was a pretty weak reason, but I assume it was due to them losing contact with Sue, Ben, and Reed last issue, and knowing it was directly connected to Namor (since they were tracking him on radar heading right at them). Isn't the first time they swung first and asked questions later.

 

[ProjectX2]

Mary Storm looks happy her daughter and friends could be dead somewhere in the Ocean. She doesn't even care about Johnny. I agree with Ice, Namor should have attacked the ship, causing Johnny to attack him.

 

[Lynx]

Johnny attacked Namor because he's a hot head. That's it.










Damn, that pun sucked.

 

[E]

Johnny attacked Namor because he's a hot head. That's it.

Damn, that pun sucked.

No it didn't, because it's true. It's part of the character. He IS a "hothead" and he HAS reacted without thinking in the past.

Not real hard to understand. :roll:

 

[ProjectX2]

I'm sure if someone he hadn't seen before emerged out of a shop he wouldn't attack them though...

 

[E]

I would hope not.

A guy jumping up out of the ocean is a little bit different though.

 

[DIrishB]

Pretty much what I was saying.

Its not. But my problem is that in here, it just doesnt seem the same way as other times. Like Millar just forced that to happen.

 

[TheManWithoutFear]

I think the problem is there's no little remark or dialogue before the Flame On. That would've helped a bit even if it was just a panel of something.

 

[Goodwill]

You're probably right... Maybe some interaction between Johnny and Namor. Like, why would you immediately attack something that's been hidden for all those years? You're a science adventure team...

Well I doubt Namor would know what they were. I was thinking more in the lines of Johnny saying something like "I don't care who he is. he's got Sue, Reed, and Ben down there" and then attacks.

That's what I thought, but its badly done. You'd think we'd get some shots of Johnny getting antsy and tense and concerned about every one down there before things suddenly go crazy.

But because they DIDN'T, when Flying Fish-Man jumps out of the sea, the reckless attack isn't presented as being well-justified. I mean, dude was surfing for pictures of swimsuit models shortly before that.

 

[Ice]

Actual issue out. Go talk there.

 

[ourchair]

Actual issue out. Go talk there.

The issue not out in Manila, therefore I don't have it. And the discussion point I brought up is not spoiler-related to anything outside of what is actually in the preview.
