Not explaining tiny little continuity errors/glitches will make a new reader into an ex-reader. The powers that be should be making comics more accessible, not keeping folks out. I’ve talked about red skies before, and I’m not going to get caught in that trap again. And having to buy another comic I didn’t want to understand one I did want is a deceitful business, especially when they are four bucks a pop. If I had to read this issue of SS-M, perhaps an editor’s note would have been appropriate to let me know that. I would rather have just had the powers that be admit that Age of Ultron was written before the events of Superior Spider-Man or the other truth, that artist Bryan Hitch is a slow worker, and there wasn’t enough time to make changes. The problem is that in AoU, Brian Michael Bendis, who is no slouch in writing Spider-Man, portrays him as quintessentially Peter Parker. It’s a miracle that Mary Jane barely believes him in my opinion. Even when he’s trying very hard to be Peter or Peter-like, he comes off distant, arrogant, and fake. He’s good, but mot that good, more lucky than anything else. We’ve seen him slide bumpily along in the Superior series. Number one, I don’t think Otto Octavius is that good an actor. As I said, Gage is a favorite, and he tries hard, but I still don’t buy it – for practical reasons and in-story reasons. In Superior Spider-Man #6, if only for a page or two, he does that exact job connecting the dots to make continuity right between Spidey and Age of Ultron. He has also proven to be very good at accommodating the present with that past.
I have a lot of respect for Christos Gage, the writer of that issue, mostly because he has a healthy respect for the past and what has gone before. Many folks have brought it to my attention that that answer lies in Superior Spider-Man #6. In my previous reviews of this series, I have railed about who Spider-Man really is. Shocker! Age of Ultron Book Four – the story, the review, and the rant, continue after the jump. In Book Three, Luke Cage has journeyed to the center of the beast known as Ultron, only to find his old teammate, the Vision, pulling the strings. Now the good guys have a plan to take back the Earth. The world woke up one morning and found itself conquered, mankind murdered or subjugated, and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes on the run or in hiding. Ultron, the Avengers’ most dangerous enemy, has won. “We also shot him, waking up, saying, ‘Ah, I didn’t really die from these 47 bullet wounds!’.But the intent was to earn this, and then you have to stand by it.Today is a grim day in the Marvel Comics Universe. “We did actually shoot him in the last scene, in an outfit, with his sister,” Whedon explained to Empire. At least, not that we’ll probably ever seen. As it were, he never actually became Quicksilver. And he has awesome powers that look visually different from anyone else in the MCU, powers we only got to break the surface of. He and Wanda have a unique origin story that we haven’t seen onscreen yet.
Taylor-Johnson might be yet another straight, white, dude, but in terms of character: Pietro is European, the first non-American Avenger of the bunch (and he has the bonkers accent to prove it). Give us House of M!īecause Pietro and Wanda are different from the other heroes on the Avengers roster. As soon as Pietro and his sister officially joined the ranks of Avengers two-or-so hours into Ultron, we couldn’t help our minds from drifting to a theoretical Phase 4 where Marvel makes a solo Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver film.
