Lol @ posts! I only made one. I might edit it and add more later if I feel up to it, but everything got too far away from me for the Minuteman to continue. There's really no reason for some schlub construction worker to be at a secret government installation. Like I said, if inspiration strikes maybe I'll include Slinger, but I've been a little tapped creatively lately. I think I might be out of the RPGs until after the holidays.

I don't really see a place for the Minuteman in this one anymore. Maybe Slinger will put in an appearance near the end, but otherwise good luck to those involved!

Um, where is everything taking place now? It started in NYC, right? Then it moved to Metropolis? And now it's split between VV HQ and Section 13? Where is the VV HQ and Section 13? I'm lost.

"If The Wasp has fans she would at least had her own comic.She is the only Avenger between two teams that never ever had a solo series.The staatment is not completely false.A thread was made on the vine a while ago asking if anyone liked Janet in Hank...there were very few post but most people said they either didn't care about her or they liked her more than Pym.Jan didn't have any important relationships in Marvel...People barely like Pym for beating her up so that wasn't important,Her death was insignificant.Marvel will replace her easily and everyone will get over it.She had no impact on the Avengers or Marvel U at all.This is coming from someone who actually likes the character..thing about this...look at all the major events and Marvel an look at the very small roles she played.....

Secret War:She didn't do anything
Avengers Dissasembled:She didn't do anything
House of M:She didn't do anything
Civil War:She didn't do anything
Secret Invasion:She died

The Mighty Avengers don't need Wasp..she's damn near worthless.They have Wanda now.Watch how nobody cares that she's dead.When Cap died he got a whole mini series dedicated to how characters felt about his death and it was announced on the news.That was big..that was significant.Janet dying is not.There is no big picture in her death.She sacrificed herself and she's never coming back.

I Like Wasp as well...I'm not sure why but there is something about Janet I like..but you can't sit there and act like she made a major difference in Marvel..because she didn't.She didn't add anything to the team.She could have not been there and the outcome of every fight or mission would have been similar.Whatever Hank does...people will continue to not care."
Just curious, when did you start reading Avengers? Whether or not Wasp has any fans doesn't make any difference in the significance of her death, and to say that she doesn't have any important relationships in the MCU? That's just ignorance. She was a beloved character within the universe, no matter how anyone felt about her in the real world. The lasting affects aren't going to have anything to do with what she was able to do, but more so with what the people who loved her are able to to. Wasp's death is significant in the Marvel Universe. She was a founding Avenger, and had been on the team pretty much since its inception, and as such has maintained relationships with almost every character that has had any contact with the team.

It really doesn't matter whether anybody likes her, or how many fans she has. Her significance is ingrained in the Marvel Comics Universe, she's important to them, therefore she is important. To say that her death is insignificant is false.

While I can see your point about her not having many fans (though I wont truly believe it unless I see some statistics) this statement is completely false. Jan had many important relationships within the MCU that her death will have a lasting affect on. She was a major player in the community, her death was far from insignificant.

Anyway, I thought Mighty Avengers really did Wasp justice and showed just how grand a thing her death was. I really don't think Bendis took killing her off lightly, otherwise he wouldn't have written her such a tribute. To anyone who thinks that her death was pointless, you just don't know the big picture yet. Most of what Bendis writes has a point, you'll see it eventually.

That all said, I really liked Wasp, and while she wasn't my favorite Avenger, I believe she really added a lot to the team. I look forward to seeing what's next for Hank with her gone, but I'm also sure we'll see Jan again.

I skipped out on X-Men, but Spider-Man was really, really, good. I would recommend it if you have a lot of extra cash.
