ATTF: SDCC News/Chat Post  
Hello, bar!

Steve Rogers' birthday has come and gone, and now another San Diego Comic Con is upon us. I know at least a couple of our bar patrons are there right now, but for the rest of us, it's time to pull up a chair, get a cold drink, and flail vicariously.

SDCC is a little less stressful news-worthy for us this year, because there are no MCU panels. But, the Marvel TV shows are there, and there are some comics announcements expected as well. Plus of course awesome merch and cosplays.

To get this party started, have a few links I've collected from tumblr:

- MTV made this list of all the official Black Widow merch! I don't know about you guys, but I'm definitely gonna need that Think Geek shirt and charm. And the new Legends figure.

- Speaking of which, Bobbi Morse is getting a Legends figure too! At this rate I'm going to need a THIRD merch shelf before too long.

- And, finally, have these adorable pictures of Hayley Atwell and James D'Arcy.

Use this post to add more flail-worthy news, chat, and party all weekend!


Things to remember:
1) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.
2) Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings).
3) For people with annoying internet connections, say in the title if a comment is graphic/images/gif-heavy and post picspams under a cut.
4) Have a damn good time! (Because if that’s not happening then this post has clearly failed.)

Now THAT would be something worth celebrating. Because that Hawkeye vs Hawkeye thing? Really isn't....

I'm actually kind of looking forward to that. I think there's good storytelling potential. The concept is just a hook, after all. Not the whole series.

I hope you're right. I'm majorly turned off by the image of Clint-as-Attila-the-Hun.

I'm so confused by that... It says Hawkeye #1??? But hasn't the new Hawkeye already had a few issues? Or is this a new new Hawkeye?

(And how about them doing a Hawkeye comic that is just Clint or just Kate)

It's another relaunch. Everything goes back to Issue #1 in October when Secret Wars ends.

Ah got it, thanks! But same writer/artist as current run, correct? Also is this new run "in-universe " of Secret Wars? Or completely different? I'm assuming the current run has nothing to do with Secret Wars, right?

I don't think we know. And yes, same team.

Very interesting. Thanks!
