I am officially under-whelmed.
Oh c’mon, TaZ… how can you be under-whelmed….. THIS image clearly shows that Steve Rogers and his Crew are going to team up with Teddy Roosevelt and some random street people to fight Super Terror….What more can a reader of today ask for?
Judging from those faces, Fear Itself was initially titled Dull Surprise.
Is Steve Rogers supposed to look like George Washington with blonde hair?
Daredevil, the man without fear, will reign supreme!
I love how Marvel went from “read my lips: no more big events!” to an endless, interlinked, huge mega event of doom in just a few years….
Not so much Fear Itself as Mild Concern!
I will be picking up the Gagos story, and will be waiting for reviews on the others.
My enthusiastic “Gotta follow the checklist” idea of events is now dead.
Spidey’s Ramos on the brain. I meant Gage*
Looks like they’re at a Bieber Concert.
As uninterested as I am in Fear Itself, damn Marko Djurdjevic is awesome.
