Instead of doing the deed, I’ll make a 23-word speech about how you couldn’t possibly use your shield in time!

“We are using our SONAR SIGNALS to guide us thru the bed of KILLER KELP!”

Was killer kelp really the best use of resources?

Dr. Strange relaxing at the end of a long adventure with a ciggie. I guess the Sanctum Sanctorum must smell like stale tobacco smoke.

I wish writers would give Black Bolt a standard, limited power set rather than just “whatever the plot requires.” It’s silly.

Can’t decide if “Viceroy of Vegetables” is more dumb or less dumb than “Plantman.” I’ve gotta admit I kinda like it.

With that black bar where his eyes should be & his bleach blond hair flopping down, Blake looks like he plays keys for a new wave band.
