More Subway Avengers

OK, so the Subway Avengers: Age of Ultron promotion is over (the franchise is currently promoting the Pixar animated film Inside Out) , and I am in line to get a cool window poster from my local Subway, but in the mean time they gave me this poster.

I also managed to score a couple of bags of Avenger Doritos:

OK Kids, here it is, the  final trailer for the upcoming (May 1 — Free Comic Book Day) Avengers film

Spidey Beat up Who?

So, I'm thinking that I’ve probably mentioned that I’m something of a Spider-Man fan, and that I’m a tad upset about the way my hero is currently being treated in the pages of his own book, and that I felt that — for the most part — Stories told outside Amazing were generally better than the ones told inside Amazing.

That was until I read the Machine Man story in Marvel Comics Presents #8. In that particular story, Spidey shows up in a flashback that Machine Man is telling, and in the flashback Spidey fought and defeated Ultron. Yep, that’s right webbed him up and knocked him out. just like that.

Then, as if that wasn’t bad enough, in another story in that same issue, Cyclops goes wandering in the woods in back of Xavier mansion in order to hunt and kill a deer. Hey, I know that it has been a while since Ive regularly read an X-Men comic, but I can remember back in the ‘80s when Earth was being invaded by some alien killers that Cyclops and (Wolverine or Corsair, I don’t recall which) yelled at him for not killing the aliens in self defense.

I’ve got to tell you that I think that something is seriously wrong over at Marvel these days. Deals with the Devil, “straitlaced” heroes killing, Spidey easily beating a villain that has repeatedly given the “A”-listed Avengers a run for their money. Can anyone out there help me with all of this?
