ok, sometimes canon's good

Well, I just ranted in the other thread about how I like to pretend that comic book canon doesn't exist, because it messes with my OTP, but seeing this on Tumblr today I have to admit it can sometimes be OK.





I need to see this live action, please.

What's eeeeenteresting to me is that this is definitely 'movie-version'-ish Clint, what with the lack of cowl and purple and the added black t-shirt of hotness and such. Does anyone know the storyline here? Might they draw from this for future films?


Also? The grabbing. Her arm. His face. It ... works for me. O_o

Well there are film related rumors, I wouldn't call them spoilers just yet. If you want to know, just give me a poke.

Moreso than the rumors [livejournal.com profile] thrace_adama posted about last night? o.o

[identity profile] anuna-81.livejournal.com 2012-06-28 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooops, I don't think so. I wasn't aware of the previous post - sorry! I was going to edit my comment buy you were faster.

No worries! And sorry for jumping the gun! I was just all like "omg more? I can haz moar rumors???" :)

You are SO RIGHT... that *is* movie!Clint. I choose to believe they are captializing on the popularity of the ship and the movie characters, rather than that they are simply updating his former regrettable costume.

So I can't help but notice that this came out in 2011, so it would have been before the movie craziness, but they probably would have started/finished? filing and so they would have known what the new costumes were going to look like. And maybe took the time to throw some story ideas in there too...

Damn your eagle eyes! I just want to believe what's conveniently good for C/N!

But yeah, that makes sense. I mean, Natasha's hair is still long, maybe it was before she shortened it for Avengers.

... but maybe it also means that was kind of always the end game? maybe? pls?

So...was just looking online (because I'm dogged like that), and Marvel has the pub date for this specific issue as July 11, 2012. So I take that to mean it hasn't actually hit shelves yet? I think it's just that the SERIES started in 2011, which is why it's "Avengers Assemble (2011)".

It seems like a good thing to me that future/current comics have the two of them together... *hopes*

Oh man, it hasn't even hit the street yet. So if the cover is any indication we are going to have some good stuff to spec over. Debating over what may or may not get transferred to MCU. What is our lives?!

[identity profile] workerbee73.livejournal.com 2012-06-29 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
VERY interesting. Okay so now you've got me searching down clues and here's what I found on Marvel wiki:

http://marvel.com/comic_books/browse/comic_series/15373/avengers_assemble_2011_-_present

.... and i looks like Thanos is a part of this storyline too. So now I'm seriously wondering if this is going to have any kind of movie implciations. Or maybe it's just enough that in the movieverse comics (for lack of a better term), there is legit Masster Assissins kissin' going on.

We may need to get this issues when it comes out. For, um, research.

Oooh, Brian Michael Bendis wrote it. I seem to remember liking his stuff back when i was buying comics.

Saw this description of #1:

• The Avengers Versus The *Brand-New* Zodiac! • One Of The Greatest Avengers Villains Of All Time Gets Reinvented For The Modern Age Just In Time For The Blockbuster Movie Event Of The Summer! • A Perfect Jumping-On Point Featuring The Cast Of The Summer Blockbuster But In Marvel Universe Continuity!

That last line...so it's the movie cast but with their comic history still? But whatever, I'm excited BW/H are clearly a thing in a series that's tied to the movies at least a little.

This + those Cap2 rumors makes me think there is a plan of aome sort for our kids.

THEY HAVE A PLAN!
