New Avengers #39 Preview

[goldenfist]

Taking refuge in Avengers Penthouse, the New Avengers continue to elude Stark’s Mighty Avengers and continue their hunt to weed out Skrull imposters. New Avengers #39 follows Echo as a skeptical Maya Lopez, along with Wolverine riding shotgun, widens her eyes in a shocking revelation about the Skrull infiltration!

Superstar Brian Michael Bendis and award-winning artist David Mack (the man who created Echo) give us the next chapter in the events leading up to the highly anticipated Secret Invasion event! And they bring in a very special guest appearance by a character near and dear to both Bendis and Mack’s hearts!

The New Avengers stand on the precipice of Secret Invasion and their ranks, as well as those of the entire superhero community, are about to be shaken to their very core!

How deep have the Skrulls infiltrated the New Avengers? Could Echo and Wolverine provide more insight to the invasion? All this and an exciting Avenger hookup in New Avengers #39!

Sounds absolutely riveting. I see Bendis' plodding story lines weren't putting enough people to sleep, so now he's decided to lose the dialogue. No big loss.

What does this female character have all over her face? Is that a pearl necklace? Or is that just some sort of "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane" make-up job? Who is she? Electra? Echo? The Wasp (well, it is Bendis so don't laugh)? Hawkeye in drag?

Either way, it's hard to imagine caring less.

The pages lack dialogue because [CUE DRAMATIC MUSIC] the dialogue hasn't been added yet. That's pretty much like me going and making fun of an old issue of Avengers for being in an "Essential" trade paperback and not being colored. "Those silly lazy Silver Age dumb-dumbs! I see they can't even color right, so they just gave up and started printing black and white."

As far as what's on her face, it happened during David Mack's run on "Daredevil," when she was originally introduced. It's Echo, dude.

As for you not caring . . . big shocker.

Let's watch that sass, Woodsie.

So you're saying that white stuff on her face is pigeon poop?

[goldenfist]

Bobc doesn't care about the New Avengers anyway.

It's a mark left there by her dying father. Having not read the issues, I don't know the full story. I suppose you could, y'know, look into it before trashing it . . .

[bobc]

Oh I care about the New Avengers. It's the first time in 30 years of comic collecting that I've ever gotten angry about.

Woodsie I am simply being honest. Echo, from the little I've seen, seems like a cheap copy of Electra, only with some sort of bodily fluid flecked across her delicate features.

[goldenfist]

I guess Echo is hooking up with Wolverine.

[bobc]

hee hee!

Daredevil make's a guest apperance I wonder what he and
Echo will talk about.
