"Excuse me, my Watchdog needs his walkies, but I'll be right back to finish the story." I've always taken it for granted that Uatu is breaking the fourth wall in "narrator mode", but this take was hilarious!!<br /><br />Marvel Unlimited comes through again, letting me read a comic on this show, furthering the podcast community completely controlling my reading habits! I HAVE NO WILL OF MY OWN!!<br /><br />The writer's name looked familiar from Iron Man around the time when the War Machine armor was created, so I checked, and sure enough, Len Kaminski was even Iron Man's writer at the beginning of Galactic Storm. Interesting opportunity for a writer to take a plot he'd already developed into a different direction.<br /><br />I completely agree that Monica should have appeared somewhere in part 2. An off-screen death was just not satisfying for one of my favorite Avengers. I can see her and Living Lightning being prime targets of the Kree since they're so powerful, all the more reason to acknowledge how they died. A missed opportunity, that.<br /><br />I actually found the artwork pretty good, not great, but good. Maybe you successfully lowered my expectations. (hooray?)<br /><br />Ok, I promise not to be a downer for every episode, but this is another good example of why I have to take "What If" stories in small dosages. I like the concepts, but in execution, it gets overboard on "we'd never get to kill these characters in the regular series, so you dead and you dead and ..." It's just not my thing. Guess I'm ... a killjoy.<br /><br />BUT! Still loving the show! So cool hearing Dr G and Gene together. Great job, and see you next time, Watchdogs!Tim Pricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01930515973080943337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4651613396162106161.post-2769076570652277932019-06-18T07:37:25.246-07:002019-06-18T07:37:25.246-07:00Ummm, so, Cap DID say Avengers Assemble in a movie...Ummm, so, Cap DID say Avengers Assemble in a movie in Endgame!Doppelgängerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06959786797239089696noreply@blogger.com
