I feel this new revamped Namor look and power-level creep is for cinematic purposes, he'll probably be the villain or a villain of the next avengers movie

That'd be interesting to see. Last I'd heard was Universal still had a part of the rights, and wasn't trying to play ball. They have distribution rights for any solo Hulk movies, and are probably still pissed that they basically made Planet Hulk by switching out some characters and making it a Thor movie. :pachaha:

I'm sure it's some kinda swerve but if not....:mjlol:

Bendis was so sure he had a bullet proof way to keep that Luke x Jessica ish forever, only for Marvel to hit him with the

If it ain't Reed and Sue, marvel got an expiration date on all your ship pairings like

It's done Luke no favors, IMO

And now that they both had/have mainstream recognition that has them independent of each other, there's really no incentive for them to be together. shyt was always wack to begin with and a downgrade for Cage's character, as a means for Bendis to ensure his pet character would never be easily discarded

I mean really, not to start nothin, but did any of yall ever like Luke x Jessica??

I don't mean the concept of Luke being married or having a kid, but just specifically with that trailer trash basic broke same dirty pants wearing white girl he sodomized one night off the henny then magically fell in love with 4 months later despite ignoring her ass the entire time, all becuz she told him her sob story and revealed she was preggo :francis:

I guess they had some cute lil sarcastic moments here and there, but it was largely just the same ol Bendis talk he can make any two characters do, and majority of the time Luke was just the emasculated sitcom husband to jessica's nagging wife trope

Justice League Dark upping the ante, trying to creep it's way into my monthly must reads :picard:
Justice League Dark was my favorite comic of the week. The way they set it up to read like the old House of Secrets/House of Mystery books with Man-Bat as the narrator was cool.
Honestly if WB knows what's up they will try to parlay this version of Justice League Dark into a movie franchise. They already got Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman to anchor it and spinning into horror tinged super-heroics would be a smart niche market to try and stake a claim to.
