    Good - Best thing to come out of Marvel Now

    Bad - Worst thing to come out of Marvel Now

    Ugly - Character your most afraid for based on the new direction

    Give one example for each of the three, this can be on current series or ones in discussion where the premise and rosters are known.

    Good: JIM -- with the Sif focus -- love seeing her play warrior again, the tougher she is, the better. She looks good with blood splatter.

    Bad: Thunderbolts. So many examples but I'll just say Elektra and Frank. **throws up a little**

    Ugly: Emma Frost. If you don't agree, then you hate the character and love her descent into Bendisism Hell.

    GOOD: Indestructible Hulk Mark Waid is the MAN. Leinil Yu is Marvel's best penciler at the moment, hands down.

    BAD: Thunderbolts or Iron Man

    UGLY: Spider-man. I'm liking what's happened so far but things get get really bad or awkwardly creepy at any turn if Slott slips up

    Good: New Avengers/All New X-Men (Both very good series that showed their writers at their creative peaks - as well as stimulated great debate in online forums. Also, kickass artists)

    Bad: Iron Man (Bland and boring, with generic one-issue plots and eye-cringing Greg Land artwork. Also, porno faces.)

    Ugly: Thunderbolts (Red Leader. That is all.)

    I do not read Thunderbolts, but when I heard about the Elektra-Punisher pairing I also thought WTF?@TheAcidSkull said:

    Good: Hulk and Thor.

    Bad:Iron man WTF!

    Ugly:Thunderbolts. Ross and The Leader, what a disgrace.

    Iron Man has been pretty disappointing for some time now, it hurts less as the years go on. Marvel has proven that outside of making him the villain in Civil War, they have no idea what to do with him at this point.

    Greg Land need to go work for Playboy and do their cartoons where his porn faces will be appreciated.
