Speed (Marvel Comics) Puns

A race track is built along the Milky Way galaxy, and everyone is has enough oxygen supply to make it around. 3 laps. On your marks, get set, go!

(Comment who gets second to dead last as well)

There's so many different iterations of Spider-Man, many of whom jump through realities and deal with other Spider-persons, Spider totems, and web of destiny, spider island and spider spider spider spider-

It's so grand that it's practically on par with the Speed Force in DC.

I know the real life answer is merchandising, and the popularity of Spider-Man as a character. But is there a canon explanation for all this?

There were a lot of great Marvel comics in 2021, so naturally I expect some of them to be adapted for Marvel Future Fight. Here are some of the characters and uniforms we can get based on last year's comics.

I've posted all the related images on imgur, check them out: https://imgur.com/a/ub6CjAA

1. Iron God
   In the latest comics Tony during the battle with Korvac got imbued with power cosmic. Now he has the ability to hit someone with a damn planet, so — pretty OP. With no major media for Iron Man on the horizon, this can be a uniform to bring Iron man to the top meta tier. Or even GOD meta tier?
2. X-Force
   One of the mutant comics could be a great base for a mid-month update. Beast, Domino and Kid Omega are regular members of the team at the moment and all of them are in need of a new uniform.
3. Black Widow
   Current Black Widow comic gave the character a great redesign. It also features Yelena as White Widow, Spider-Girl Anya Corazon and a new character Lucy Nguyen with electric powers. While I don't think it is a possibility right now due to Spider-Man and Makkari recently becoming speed meta, this update very well could be scheduled for the second half of 2022.
4. Daredevil
   Also a decent contender for a mid-month. In this comic Matt spends half the issues behind bars while keeping the bandana and secret identity, while Elektra takes the Daredevil moniker and costume. This comic features two distinct Daredevil suits, one is orange being a prison robe, another one is very close to the classic black suit. And we need Daredevil Elektra. Or something for Elektra... Anything... Please...
5. X-Men
   Aside of Hellfire Gala, we could very well have a big mutant update. Cyclops is in dire need of a new uniform and there are three current X-Men team members who are not in MFF at all: Synch, Sunfire and Polaris. Or they could just give all the characters cool swords as seen in X of Swords storyline.
6. Dark Ages
   An elseworld type story focuses on the Marvel universe that had lost all of its electricity. While the comic is petty good, it also features a lot of redesigns, that can be adapted for a mid-month update.
7. Kang The Conqueror
   If I recall correctly, this is the first solo Kang comic and MFF could really go crazy with this character. While Kang, Immortus, Nathaniel, Rama-Tut are the same person, they have different personalities, sets of powers and looks. They also quite often meet each

#Respect Gorr, the God Butcher

> "But where were those gods whenever we needed them, I always asked? Where were the gods when I needed them most? They were where they always are, all throughout the universe...They were nowhere to be found."

Gorr was born on a planet with no name, almost every day on the brink of starvation. He was taught to trust in the gods, but they never answered his prayers. At an early age, his mother and father died, leaving Gorr to fend for himself in the harsh environment. Years later he married and fathered some children. However, most of them died. Gorr's wife Arra was killed during an earthquake, and one by one his children perished until he was left with one son, who would also soon die from starvation.

Stricken with grief after his son's death, Gorr gave up hope and outwardly expressed his belief that there were no gods, for which he was exiled by his superstitious people. While wandering the desert praying to die, Gorr witnessed a pair of battling gods - a dark elder god called Knull and a gold-armored purple-skinned god - plunge out of the sky and crash-land nearby. Shocked by the realization that gods did exist, Gorr was enraged when the gold-armored god begged for help; the dark god's sword transforming into an amorphous mass of living darkness and bonding to him. Gorr used his new weapon, All-Black the Necrosword, to kill the gold-armored god; then vowed to seek vengeance against all gods for never answering his prayers, and set out to kill them all.

Several iconic Marvel characters such as Spider-Man have had some pretty stinker comic runs cough Dan Slott era Spider-Man cough.

But Daredevil? who he has so many excellent writers over the decades who have given him pretty compelling stories and arcs in their own respective runs from Frank Miller, Brian Michael Bendis, Ed Brubaker, Mark Waid, Charles Soule to now Chip Zdarsky.

The rich stories that these writers have managed to craft in their runs and contribution to this character's mythos is all, but worthy to adapt for both the small and big screen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and other media. He is gonna have an absolute wealth of source material of stories to tell that would have both new and old fans coming back for more.

The only Marvel character whom I can name next to Daredevil who hasn't had a bad comic run and had comic runs that were a banger to another is Moon Knight.

Any other Daredevil fan feel the same way here?

#Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist.

Look at this cover, and what do you see? If you said a generic-looking Marvel comic and a half-assed attempt at creating new characters that will be forgotten in a few months, then you'd be undershooting it greatly.

Let's back up a bit. Comic crossovers are weird. No, I'm not talking about Batman and Superman, or Iron Man and Captain America. Nor do I mean inter-publisher crossovers like Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (which is unironically the best Batman story ever written by Eisner-winning writer James Tynion IV). No, I'm talking about the wild stuff, like Green Lantern and KFC, Iron Man and M&Ms, Batman and Faze Clan, Luke Cage and Magic shaving cream. It's not uncommon for DC and Marvel to partner up with companies to make limited edition comics designed to advertise various products. Now usually, these cross-company promotions are made with the likes of food or whatnot, but in 2017, Marvel announced an out-of-the-blue partnership that had many questioning what the hell Marvel was doing.

#I've successfully privatized world peace.

On October 6, 2017 at 11:00 AM ET, Marvel Entertainment announced a collaboration with Northrop Grumman Corporation for New York Comic Con. If you don't know, Northrop Grumman is a defense contractor and weapons manufacturer, one of the largest in the US. They have been criticized as a war profiteering company, having made billions selling weapons to the US military while war raged on in the Middle East. In addition, they've come under fire for a number of controversies, including faulty equipment, environmental hazards, and even selling code to foreign companies.

If you think Northrop sounds like the sort of entity that would be the villain in an Iron Man movie, then you're not the only one to notice. Predictably, fans on Twitter [openly](https://twitter.com/KingIm

Everyone's argument is always "No form of discrimination makes sense 😔" but that's not what I'm saying.

The idea that people would look at superhumans with suspicion, fear, and hatred is very believable and an interesting idea to explore. However, the idea that that suspicion, fear, and hatred would almost exclusively target one specific type of superhuman makes no sense. The way people talk about superhumans/metahumans/etc. in that universe implies they are seen as a class of their own, not split into a several different classes like, say, we've done with race. Singling out the mutants among all the metahumans to hate would be like saying "I don't have a problem with black people in general, but I'm racist against Ethiopians specifically". Like, that's not how humans think. You wouldn't hear someone say that outside of maybe some weird, personal, anecdotal experience.

Also, how does the average citizen even know which superheroes are mutants and which aren't? Unless they publicly declare themselves mutants like the X-Men, there's no easily identifiable trait that distinguishes Mutants relative to other superhumans. So not only are mutants a group is doesn't make sense to single out, but they're also a group you shouldn't be able to single out in the first place. Imagine a superhero saving someone's life and the person goes "Wow! Thanks for saving me from that burning building! Could you please divulge to me where and how you got your powers so I know whether or not I need to be racist toward you now?". In my experience on this Earth, I don't think people, even hateful bigots, really act this way.

A major issue I have in particular is that mutants are canonically not "equal" to humans. They are described all over the place as the next stage in human evolution. They are considered their own species called "homo superior". They are literally higher evolved lifeforms. The fact that mutants have always been a very transparent analogy for civil rights movements becomes very weird and problematic when you think about it for more than a few seconds. The statement of equality is so powerful because it says that, at the end of the day, despite our differences, we are cut from the same cloth, we are all human, we are all brothers and sisters. That's simply not true with mutants. They are superior to humans, and that muddies the message a lot. What is that saying about real-world struggles for equality? What is that saying about Mutants? I think it's weirdly

R1 base form Dinosaurus vs base form Hulk

R2 Bloodlusted Dinosaurus vs angrier than usual Hulk

Who will win

Mine has to be either Scott Pilgrim (2010), Super (2010) or Dredd (2014)

Lets say for an example a streamer is performing at a high level but they dont have a camera showing their actual hands moving but rather only the screen. Could any mimcs in comics replicate those feats simply because they saw the feat itself without seeing exactly how it was done? Or would they need to see the actual hands of the player to replicate it?

What character from Marvel Comics is just too weird, too outlandish or too controversial to ever be adapted for and brought into the MCU?

For example, Leather Boy:

https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Gene_Lorrene_(Earth-616)

Marvel Comics have had a load of problems recently. I’m going to focus on one today. Every 3 months it seems that Marvel has a big event that will “Change the Marvel Universe forever”. But they rarely do. These events haven’t been good for a while. The events often interrupt solo series that people love. It is said that these bring in people but that is rare. It’s the movies that bring in people. So I propose we don’t do one for at least 3 years.

So no events to worry about for a while. We have Tony, Steve, Janet, Bruce, and Thor meet up. They talk about Hank and making a new Avengers team. These 5 will fight Pymtron and through likely contrived means we get Hank Pym the f*ck out of there. After words we do a mini on these 6. Focus on their development since their first team up. After that each member goes off and starts their own Avengers team. Tony funds this. He forms a team on the West Coast. Steve makes one in (Based in the mansion) New York. Thor makes a space team. Janet does the Avengers Academy. Hank either does a science team or leads the Thunderbolts. I like the Thunderbolts idea better.

Cap recruits 9 other members. Hawkeye because his life has been a mess for the last decade. Swordswoman, Goliath II and Thunderstrike II because the Avengers screwed up their lives. Sandman because he was once a good man. He recruits his old friend Jim Hammond. Makkari is recruited to do speed things. Songbird is recruited but I don’t have a reason for it.

This team will be based out of Avengers Mansion. More members will join and leave. They’ll fight the Masters and other random villains. I’d like to see more Villains be redeemed and join, like Sandman. Maybe the Absorbing Man and bring in Black Bolt

I am Attorney Jonathan Sparks, an intellectual property and copyright lawyer at Sparks Law (https://sparkslawpractice.com/). Copyright-termination notices were filed earlier this year to return the copyrights of Marvel characters back to the authors who created them, in hopes to share ownership and profits with the creators. In response to these notices, Disney, on behalf of Marvel Entertainment, are suing the creators seeking to reclaim the copyrights. Disney’s argument is that these “works were made for hire” and owned by Marvel. However the Copyright Act states that “work made for hire” applies to full-time employees, which Marvel writers and artists are not.

Here is my proof (https://www.facebook.com/SparksLawPractice/photos/a.1119279624821116/4372195912862788/), a recent article from Entertainment Weekly about Disney’s lawsuit on behalf of Marvel Studios towards the comic book characters’ creators, and an overview of intellectual property and copyright law.

The purpose of this Ask Me Anything is to discuss intellectual property rights and copyright law. My responses should not be taken as legal advice.

Jonathan Sparks will be available 12:00PM - 1:00PM EST today, October 11, 2021 to answer questions.

Marvel Comics went bankrupt in 1996 because of market oversaturation and convoluted crossover storylines that required you to buy almost every book for an entire year to get the full story, including event one-shots, and "after the event" one-shots and miniseries (Looking at you Onslaught and Heroes Reborn). This definitely turned off readers, new comers and long time fans alike helping to crater the market. Consumer fatigue was at an all time high.

I'm not saying that Marvel Studios is on the verge of bankruptcy. Their coffers are full, and they have the backing of Disney, however I feel the MCU is steadily chugging down the same path; too much, too fast, too convoluted.

Personally, I'd like to see more self-contained one-shots and trilogies with more character driven stories that aren't pushing the plot towards an "EPIC" crossover movie. Logan did great at the box office because of this.

What say you? Should the MCU perpetually be pushing plot over character to get to the crossover, or should the MCU step back and focus on more self-contained character driven stories in the form of one-shots and trilogies?

So... apparently MCU Thanos wrecks comic Steve Rogers... Who would be the weakest person from Marvel comics who could beat MCU Thanos in a fight?

No hax, no Kitty Pryde, no Mr. Immortal outliving Thanos... who beats the big purple movie monster in a classic fist fight?

616 character and MCU Thanos find themselves fighting like Captain America fought Thanos in Endgame. They're amongst the ruins. Who is the weakest or least powerful individual who would beat movie Thanos in a knock-down drag-out fight? Colossus? Beast? Mr. Fantastic? Thanks for any thoughts!

• Round 2: Thanos has his sword.
