Mark Millar + Steve McNiven - Editorial Opression= AMAZING STORY! *********************SPOILER*********************************************SPOILER*********************************************SPOILER************************
So the beheading of Red Skull and the Iron Man armor were awesome. I hate to see Hawkeye dead though, I was hoping to see him through the whole book.
********************END SPOILER******************** This story is everything good about Wolverine and the fun of the Marvel universe wrapped into one. It hits what most other books lack in terms of entertainment. Story and creator driven instead of wallet rape driven. It's books like this that remind me why I still love the MU and how far it has fallen.

I particularly liked all the crazy ways Red Skull fucked up all of Marvel's heroes. The dude was a dick, he had Beast mounted on his wall like an animal.

I've seen pieces of this and it looks good compared to most of the other Marvel shit, but I heard its not actually finished until some special comes out like DC's Wonder Woman relaunch from OC writer?

yeah, here's a piece of it. I added some numbers so i could point out a few things that makes red skull awesome and a little bit of a dick. I'll gloss over him being a nazi and wearing the clothes of the man he just killed and get into the the mise en scène of his dickery. in this one portion of the page we have 1. Every part of Iron man's costume that are red and don't touch his genitals. Because that's kinda gay. And Red Skull is a little bit of a bigot presumably. 2. Cyclops' visor would be the bit you'd want to keep because if there were any part of cyclops to show off to people, it'd be his kickass glasses. But why the torn part of his mask? I'm assuming it's because he knew only having someone's visors would not make a very good display piece in his room of death and he needed something to show that this was really on Cyclops' fucked up head. Dick. But an awesome dick. 3.Whereas every bit of everybody else's costume is all cut up and looking like he really fucked he super hero up good, Red Skull left Iron fists collar in pristine condition. Because NO ONE wants to see a flashy tall yellow collar that is torn, that's simply not done. 4. That is Thing's hand. I can only assume, he has a set hallowed out so he wear them as gloves and look badass while saying, "It's clobbering time!" when nobody is around. Or when everybody is around. Because who'd fuck with someone who has cut off the Thing's hands? 5. That is poor Beast's head. All taxidermified like a wild animal... 6. Not only did Red Skull REALLY go to town on Mister Fantastic, he had his stretchy costume fit to cover an entire wall in his trophy room. That isn't even a conservative use of his space, Imagine how many other heroes are killed and probably got stored in a lesser room of death because he felt like taking up one whole wall to show just exactly how much he fucked up poor handless Thing's stretchy buddy.

I like how he's wearing Cap's costume. Like he skinned his defeated enemy.

I'm just happy he was able to get out most of the blood from the hood of it where shit would have no doubt gushed out and left stains when he did this: Damn, Bucky. Way to get owned. The fanboys were wrong about you. You suck.

Yeah, Bucky had his ass throuroughly handed to him there. It was interesting to me though they used him instead of Steve Rogers. Out of all the timless things they kept, like Wolverine's original suit from giant size X-Men, that they went with Winter Soldier instead of Steve Rogers.
