Marvel Comics Previews: 12/11/13

Captain America, Captain America: Living Legend, and Mighty Avengers plus Guardians of the Galaxy from last week.

Nothing really catches my attention this week and I still have yet to read Inhumanity so ill get started with the issue and go from there before I dive into anything else.

Cool, but Marvel isn't 616 Steve anything more like Ultimate Cap. That is pretty evident if you read his own comics. And I doubt Ultimate Cap is more popular, ask people about Captain America and they'll tell you about the good hearted, patriotic soldier. Not a hot headed extremist. Lol. Maybe a few have heard about the France moment, but Ultimate Cap has a long way to get as popular as 616 Steve.

Ultimate cap is exactly a rip off 616 Steve, especially WW2 Steve. He has a excuse, I think it is funny how 616 Steve is being made more like his better and possibly popular Ultimate counterpart.

Just how I see it as a Ultimate Fan who disliked the boy scout saluting, listen to what your mom tells you son, every villain will live to plague me again 616 Cap being made more like Ultimate Cap.

Just how I see it.

Also.... New avenger cap from 2000s time frame.

Reed Boots, Reed rubber looking gloves, Ear Wings, plain belt.....

Ultimate Cap from 2000s.

Army Tan Boots, Army style Tan Gloves, Combat Belt, and no fruity Ear Wings.

Clearly different. Yet.

Holy crap,Ultimate Cap just made it to 616 Verse after 2010s!

@cadencev2: I'm just pointing to how Steve has done the same exact action before. We go by your logic, Ultimate Cap is copying 616 Steve.

The changes are becoming more prevalent, but like I said his costume started getting armored in the 90s. Before Ultimate Cap even appeared in a comic.

Marvel isn't trying to make 616 Cap as hot headed, racist, or violent as Ultimate Cap at all. Not even close. Marvel isn't trying to appeal to a new demographic by changing Steve even slightly. His personality is still the same as it has been always been in the modern age.

Vampire.... really? Your using a Undead being that is inherently evil as a comparison of a living life with choices? It proves he uses his shield in a interesting manner.

But the Marvel Now Armour is such a rip off. Im am not new to comics, I seen Cap's Armor and Suits from 80s and till current. He looks less like he did then and way more like Ultimate Cap now.

I can see we will agree to disagree as usual.

I think they realize how much cooler and better Ultimate Cap is and looks, and wish to capture that for 616.

@cadencev2: 616 Captain America was originally killing hoards of Nazis and other war crimianls. The comic code changed him, then writers just decided to stick with the calmer version of Steve. I'm sorry, but if you really think that 616 Captain America is becoming more and more like Ultimate Captain America, then you aren't reading current Cap comics. He indeed kills people and doesn't dwell on it , but he isn't coming in there wanting to spill blood everywhere, and isn't anywhere as brutal and hot headed as Ultimate Steve. You can't even get any comic today where Steve is as violent as Ultimate Cap. Not even close.

The costume started getting slowly armored in the mid 90s before Ultimate Cap even made an appearance in a comic.

Captain America killed Baron Blood with by using his shield in the same fashion Ultimate Cap does back in Captain America #253.

This was back in 1981. 21 years before Ultimate Captain America even made an appearance in a comic, and 26 years before Ultimate Cap had the France moment during Ultimates 3 in 2007. If anything, Ultimate Steve copied 616 Steve. Lol.

616 Cap is ALOT like Batman. Golden Age Batman killed criminals. Then he mellowed out so much he was a different person from 60s-current. It was all becuase of the Comic code. 616 Cap was a wussie in taking lives thanks to the Comic Code. Only now is he becoming more and more like Ultimate Cap who started out and stayed as what WW2 Cap was.

Also Using the Shield to cut in half a living person... very rip off what Ultimate Cap does. Also the Modern Armor argument only started to happen well after Ultimate cap pulled the look off.

@cadencev2: You kind of got 616 Steve's character development completely wrong. Go read his original comics, he was am American propaganda tool and his original writers glorified him killing Nazis and other war enemies to spread patriotism. He was never a Batman who was adverse to killing. Nowadays, writers have calmed Steve down to the point where he takes lives, but he cares more about doing the right thing and bringing hope. He is moving away from Ultimate Captain America. Lol.

Artists have been going more and more for an modern and armored look on Steve even before Marvel NOW. It has nothing to do with Ultimate Captain America. You think the cover is a rip off of the France moment, Steve has used his shield in a manner similar to that to bash robots, etc. Ultimate Captain America wasn't the first to do it.............

IMO, Cap has always been seen as a guy who does not take a life through most of the 60s-2000s. now recently his attitude is getting more and more like Ultimate Cap who is a Soldier first and Hero second.

Look at his Marvel now Costume! No fruity Ear Wings, bullet proof looking armor. He is copying Ultimate cap look now!

Also that picture!!!!

What a Rip Off!

@cadencev2: How is it a rip off?

Is it me, or does it seem this is a direct rip off of Ultimate Captain America?

What a rip off.

Will the Marvel Knights (Spider-Man, X-Men, and now Hulk) be collected? Cause I am loving them so much so far!

Last week's Guardians of the Galaxy, Cataclysm: Ultimate Spider-Man, and Superior Foes of Spider-Man for me.

Marvel's event tie-ins every single week keeps me from buying their books. Also the double-shipping and 4$ price tag on every title.

What about superior foes do you guys like? I haven't been reading it yet.

Definitely checking out Inhumanity: The Awakening. And Cap: Living Legend. Other than that, not much else.

i got too much stuff to read

Just the Ultimate stuff for me, otherwise, I'm good.

Is Marvel doing Patchwork Girl of Oz now that Emerald City of Oz almost done with? I love to see Skottie Young draw Scraps.

The Thunderbolts actually have a good artist now!

This, alarmingly often.

@fil123: I agree on Superior Foes of Spider-Man. It's brilliant. I just started reading it a couple of weeks ago. Word of mouth got me to buy the first two issues and try it. Read those and immediately drove back to the store and bought the last three. Can't wait for this issue.

I love the Thunderbolts cover...

I'll check out the Cataclysm and inhumanity stuff

wolverine is so badass

Cable ans X-Force, Wolverine, UXM, and Inhumanity for me

Falcon is so lame...

Both Amazing Spider-Man's

Cable and X-Force

Captain America

Cataclysm: Ultimate Spider-Man

Thunderbolts

Uncanny X-Men (that cover kinda creeps me out, though. Eva looks like she's gone insane)

Wolverine

Wolverine and the X-Men

Might give Avengers AI a shot too, seeing as Daredevil makes an appearance.

I just realized they fixed the Tempus/Tempest error on the cover of Uncanny X-Men #15.

Amazing Spiderman 700.2/700.3. That's all for me, thank you.

Deadpool flying a kite is so awesome!

Captaim America looks on cover of 14 as the strongest shieldest one there is.

Me too. I love all the covers for this insane ride of a series.

Besides this one I'm getting:

Inhumanity: Awakening - I loved the first issue. It was so well told and the ending gave me a stitch to the heart... It's also great to see Finesse, Stryker and Pixie in a comic.

Amazing Spider-Man 700.2 + 700.3 - The first issue gave me a feeling of home. Everything is the way it should be. Also, we have the first snow today and the tone of the book just added perfectly to the feeling that "Winter is coming" (As it also said in one panel...)

Marvel Knights Hulk - The X-Men and Spidey stories are great, so I give this one a try.

Mighty Avengers

Avengers A.I.

Uncanny X-Men

A+X

Cable and X-Force

Wolverine and the X-Men

Agreed.

I want a framed poster of that Thunderbolts cover.

Loose NUKE!

Superior Foes and maybe Avengers AI. Daredevil guest starring might just be the push to get me to buy this book.

SUPERIOR FOES!!!

i cant stress enough, this is the best book on the market

Captain America and Uncanny X-Men maybe Inhumanity: The Awakening

Nothing Marvel this week for me.

I just read Captain America living legend 1-3 in one sitting iits amazing, so pumped!

Just Captain America for me. Marvel's pull list invasion is going to start next year though.

Might get the UXM as well, still undecided.
