You are, since Tigra was long depicted as being Caucasian/White ever since her very first appearance, prior to becoming Tigra.....

Thanks for clearing that up, PaxHouse... I bow to your wisdom (and the fact that Kokomo has a Sonic Burger.)

Ok so I can understand Luke Cage being able to SPOILER! bring in the FF and X-Men as backup. Heck, given what happened in this issue I can see him being able to convince Tony's team to help out. But how the hell did he manage to get Thor and the Silver Surfer as backup???? Also do you really need Thor and the Surfer to take down the Hood and his crew?

Ok, but I don't think they all are illusions, because, Keogh aside, who in their right mind is intimidated by Howard the Duck????

This title just keeps getting worse. Time to drop it. It's a shame that it never got off the ground completely before it was revamped. This latest issue (IMO) was just trash.

orange dragon · Dec 18, 2007, 09:54 pm

Well I will say this title is not as good as it was before Civil War. I am liking the Hood quite a bit.

baltiroo · Dec 19, 2007, 12:14 am

Please, please, please do not let SPOILER! the two members who do the nasty be Logan and Echo! Please, please, please!!!!!

orange dragon · Dec 19, 2007, 09:50 pm

I think we'll see someSPOILER! Ronin on Ronin love.

That's my guess too. Not only SPOILER! have they both been Ronin, they also both have/had hearing problems!

For a moment there, I broke out laughing at the thought of SPOILER! Echo having some quality alone time.

If the question is about SPOILER! hearing, Hawkeye had a hearing loss years ago, though I don't know the details.

SPOILER! Sorry. Making a bad joke. I do remember the hearing loss thing.

I agree that the book was much better before civil war. It seems like nothing ever happens. It seems like it is nothing but a bunch of heroes not trusting each other.

John H · Dec 26, 2007, 05:15 pm

If the Avengers teams should ever reconcile, I would like to see this book continue with a cast more closely resembling something from the Avengers Forever - with Captain Marvel (Genis), Songbird and Redwolf and maybe Jocasta among the roster.

JXXX · Dec 27, 2007, 09:10 pm

I loved the pre civil war cast, but the mighty Avengers is just okay. I just wonder if Thor will eventually take a side?

gnosis · Dec 27, 2007, 09:59 pm

Thor definitely took a side. He might not come to the aid of Cage's team cause he has his own agenda at the moment, but he is definitely against Tony as seen in issue 3 of his own book.

jannepie · Jan 2, 2008, 09:26 am

You know, I really enjoyed #35-37, which hasn't happened in a while. This Hood business is interesting. My only complaints are that the book didn't really have to tie in with Mighty Avengers and the symbiotes, and that some of the cast (like Ronin and Echo) didn't really have anything to do. Surprisingly it was Wolverine who got meaningful panel-time at the Avengers Tower. It'd be nice to see the cast do more as individuals than just fire jokes. It feels like you could replace them with other heroes and the story would still be the same. The story itself (what did baddies do, what did the new Avengers do) was very good though.

Hotknife86 · Jan 21, 2008, 04:55 pm

I don't follow NEW AVENGERS regularly or anything, but I was just wondering if there'd been any word on Tigra since the beatdown? Could someone PM me? Thanks.

JXXX · Feb 4, 2008, 06:38 pm

Wow, nobody talks about this book. Does that mean that people are tired of Bendis on the book?

*Clay Olsen* · Feb 4, 2008, 07:49 pm

I am... he's done almost nothing with this book since CW... and most of the team members have been relegated to the background behind Spidey, Logan, and Cage... Doc, Danny and Clint and Echo may get a few throw away lines.. but they are really just in the background with Wong and Jessica... (well Jessica's actually usually more in the foreground...)

SPOILER! She was in the Annual. The Hood and Co. showed up and smacked her around and threatened her mom so she would tell them where the New Avengers were. Then she showed up in the fight and saved Iron Fist. She also got shot in the huge brawl after slshing Hood a few times. At the end it showed her being helped by a SHIELD agent.
