Ok fine I will.

HE’LL SAVE EVERY ONE OF US!!

It would just be shitty to intro the FF to the MCU with the same “return from the past” gimmick already used for Captain America, the original Wasp, and Captain Marvel. Would also feel shitty to retread their origin AND make them some kind of MCU legacy heroes. Incursion-fighting threads the needle!

Has appropriate giant stakes. Allows them to be the First Family w/o retreading the same “lost to history” stuff as Cap, Ant-Man, Capt Marvel, etc. Immediately makes them de facto leaders in upcoming fight vs Kang (or whoever). Sets up Doom to steal the Beyonder’s power. Actually advances big story.

Holy fucking shitcomets.

Lovely. Being able to get weight, interest and character in a simple standing pose is peak figure drawing!

I think “okay” describes most of Jurgens’ output since the 90s, unfortunately. Him and Brett Breeding drew a peak Superman and he killed it as much as one could with the Ben Reilly Spider-Man.

But his sensibilities have really not evolved much past middle-of-the-road 1990s.

It’s funny as hell that the US had a president named Zach. Let’s pass some laws, brah.

I think most of the time “the comics industry is dying” = “the comic shop industry is dying,” and that is not the apocalypse anyone thinks it is, except for comic shop owners and the type of nerd who keeps them in business.

YouTube recently algorithm’d me to a video of Shi’s Billy Tucci doing a Gutfeld! impression, hosting a panel of 4 overweight bald white men all railing against people who refuse to admit comics is dying. Watched around 5 mins until I left to figure out how to beat the shit out of an algorithm.

JFC, that’s an LA price.
