I can only assume Emma Frost was the one causing him pain here.dbutler16https://www.blogger.com/profile/00046066729353639991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293155946761960913.post-5205034416812282152010-12-09T08:16:21.917-06:002010-12-09T08:16:21.917-06:00Edo --

I was just chiding Claremont for writing two pretty lame stories, in my opinion the second one lamer than the first (X-Men 106, 110). <br /><br />I did tell Karen that the stone Black Knight story penciled by Don Heck and appearing in Avengers #157 should be waaaaaayyyyyy down our list, however!<br /><br />Thanks for the comments, guys!<br /><br />DougDoughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04248324005584963229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293155946761960913.post-50991341262728520682010-12-09T02:42:37.558-06:002010-12-09T02:42:37.558-06:00With reference Eric's point, and I really don&...With reference Eric's point, and I really don't feel like pulling out my Essentials volume to re-read this mediocre story, I seem to recall that the Hellfire Club is mentioned at some point, isn't it? Something to the effect that Warhawk planted surveillence devices in the mansion - or was that mentioned in a later issue?<br />By way, are you guys completely abandoning the concept of "one-off" reviews or are you just going to avoid the bad ones? Because I can think of a lot of one-off/filler issues that were pretty good (like Amazing Spider-man #187 or Avengers #189, for example).Edo Bosnarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293155946761960913.post-68977157449927981072010-12-08T08:31:25.178-06:002010-12-08T08:31:25.178-06:00Yes, we always have room for the 'bad comics&#...Yes, we always have room for the 'bad comics' reviews.. A GOOD example of a 'one-off' ish is Cap and Falc #164, where Sal Bucema took a breather and let ol' Alan Weiss take a swing at Cap and Falc.. <br /><br />A fun werewolf story introducing 'Nightshade', some odd characterizations of Cap's fighting motives, Nick Fury in his furry 'Escape from New York' SHIELD attire (then shown in his typical blue attire unexplicably in the next issue splash page..). The odd thing for me was that this was my first CA&F comic, so it was a somewhat weird introduction, but very well done.david_bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00218727673816200051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293155946761960913.post-87433372349584152402010-12-08T07:36:17.462-06:002010-12-08T07:36:17.462-06:00Wasn't Warhawk an Iron Fist villain?
I think ...Wasn't Warhawk an Iron Fist villain?<br /><br />I think that at some point it was mentioned that the Hellfire Club sent him, but it's not like Claremont was good at filling these details in.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
