Marvel Comic Character Talk

I would like to use this thread as an area for talks and discussions on any Marvel character. Questions about certain characters, ask away. News on someone, post it.

Some of you that have not read comics for a while that would like to know what some of their characters have been up to, maybe you can find that info here.

I just read an article on the Juggernaut that I thought some of you might find interesting.

I have always loved Juggernaut as a villan. He was arrogant and ****y with the power to back it up. I hate to see him as a wimp. He would make a great PF or even a great archive set with his helmet and gaunlets.

I agree that Juggs works better as a bad guy. I didn't even mind when Black Tom hanged around with him cramping his style. He was still cool.

If SSC did a Juggernaut prop archive they'd need to include the Ruby of Cytorak for sure.

I'm sure "Jug-heads" have seen this, but what the hey!? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O98PCZLpFgw

Here's a quick question for you guys. Why are non-Ultimate Marvel comics referred to as 616?

Alan Moore coined the term in a Captain Britain story. It's the number of the regular Marvel Universe, like reality #616 of infinite possibilities. It's basically a randomly chosen number, though some people think it refers to the publication date of Fantastic Four #1. Except that actually came out some months after June 1961.

question:

Who is Marvel Girl? Is she Phoenix? She's hot that is all i know

As with everything in the Marvel Universe, it's not as simple as a yes or a no.

Originally, Marvel Girl was Jean Grey, but the moniker was also adopted by her daughter as well as Richard and Sue Reed's daughter.

Marvel Girl is Rachael Grey........the bi-product of the "Days of Future Past" story in the pages of Uncanny X-Men.

Here is a link with more detail on her:

Kelly, Kelly, that is quite possibly the greatest video of all time. I remember seeing that a couple of months ago and laughing SO hard to work people were turning around to look at me. Just as funny as the first time I saw it.

me, these brutes are awesome:chew :chew :chew

The Wrescking Crew is a group of good ol' fashioned two bit street hoods. They are not in the same league with Magneto, Venom, or Dr. Doom. But they are good B/C class bad guys.

Me like Wrecking Crew.

I have always liked the Wrecking Crew. Great Thor and Hulk villans.
