It's been a wild couple of months for 2017. An Uphill Battle with a Great View.
But what of the American Kaiju?
Bashed, Depowered, Imprisoned, Suspended, and now put to work in the most unpopular and underwhelming Marvel Comics Event in recent memory (because come on, another attempt to make Inhumans cool?), what's a giant flag-faced lizard to do in a world where Kong: Skull Island beat Legendary Godzilla's tailed hiney?
Find out in this special 4-part, 1-issue crossover event of a book!
I want Jeff Parker to write a Maverick/Red Hulk ongoing.
Juan King
I really can't understand why Marvel let some writer make New Mutants characters as the leader of the Avengers
Kayden Thompson
Because let's face it: Ross just ain't fun.
Luke Scott
Because he's perfect
Easton Jones
Pretty much. Look, Ewing isn't so much original as he is British.
Nicholas Gutierrez
>Monsters 'N SHIELD Tie in I love u Ewing
Jaxson Rogers
This reminds me of that Frankenstein/Hulk one-shot from a while back. Anyone else read that?
Camden Ward
Ewing's calling you out, Neal Adams!
Carter Sanchez
Too bad. Because he hates you and everything you love. You shall now be punished for having fun.
Mason Reed
Nah, man. It's because Ewing hates America.
Luke Martin
Wait a minute. That's not She-Hulk on the cover!
Lucas Kelly
How has Doom not murdered this guy or even just had someone else kill him
Christian Bell
Because someone's sore about his dwindling sales and the winner of last year's Presidential Election. Sorry Ziller Fans.
Angel Evans
Haven't you heard? He's a good guy now! Unlike SOME people...
Joseph Richardson
Between this and Logan, is Wood the secret weakness to Healing Factors?
Eli Torres
Man, you are looking way too hard for things to be mad about and really are coming up with nothing.
Colton Lee
That's fine. I don't think Ross had a catchphrase either. Not even in Agents of SMASH.
Asher Fisher
Marvel, you promised us you'd scale back on this malarky!
Samuel Smith
Riiiiiiiiiiiight.
Tune in next week when we commemorate Jack Kirby's could-have-been centennial by having Ben Grimm sodomized by Muhammad.
Brandon Walker
PFT! God, Ewing is on another level.
Noah Kelly
How much scaly fanfiction do you suppose this guy has written in his free time?
Elijah Brown
>skipping the last part of the issue Maybe spend less time trying to come up with witty bantz and more time actually storytiming the issue.
Evan Baker
...
Jack Foster

Julian Jenkins
Then: Is the last page.
Jacob Roberts
why did the storytime for one of Marvel's few good, fun, series have to be done by a triggered Sup Forums baby?
James Thompson
Go back to reading your Holy Menstruation book.
Jose Cox
I dunno. All that political stuff and rabbid lefties are bad but so are rabbid righties which see SJW-shit and politics everywhere. I'd say fuck them all and let's enjoy one of the few good books Marvel has to offer.
Kevin Williams
Yeah, it's weird. You'd think he would have gone with Captain America: Sam Wilson if he wanted to bitch about imaginary attacks against Trump.
Nicholas Ortiz
The mystical magic tommy gun that never has to be reloaded, straight out of Serious Sam.
Jose Kelly
>Castle Kruger Goddamn, that is a REALLY obscure reference.
Camden Mitchell
>You're the guy from the memes Huh?
Benjamin Walker
> He's even more two-dimensional than before!
definitely one of the better Rulk jokes.
Joshua Nelson
Some God-loving patriot he turned out to be
Anthony Barnes
American Kaiju's "YUU ESS AAYYYY" panel got kind of meme-y there for a while. That's what I'm assuming this is referring to.
Noah Garcia
I really don't see the political stuff at all. If anything this book makes fun of Marvel and parodies some classic style choices more than anything else. I was a huge fan of the monster books of the 70's and I'm more happy about this send up than what Monster Unleashed is doing.
did he/her/they/it/zob trigger your fee-fees, user? Sup Forums should be a safe space for the Sup Forums minority!
Evan Garcia
Triggered cuck :^)
Nathaniel Flores
I am no The one complaining about some shitposting, you seem to be ver y new user.
Michael Turner
Bump.
Chase Watson
>vandoom Holy shit. How deep is Ewing's library?
Julian Edwards
Reminds me of soldiers who get hooked on heroin and burn out after the army because of morphine.
Jason Price
meme lore, based Ewing
Nicholas Allen
Sunspot has been the leader of his own faction of the avengers since late 2014, in Hickman's run. Trump has hardly anything to do with it.
Noah Cruz
A quick search says it's from some 1965 daredevil comic.
>why did the storytime for one of Marvel's few good, fun, series have to be done by a triggered Sup Forums baby?
Seriously, this is your idea of triggered? Just roll with it. Or post your own thread.
Camden Rivera
Soooo...speechbubbles again? i like that, but we still donĀ“t know, what happend to the YELLOW one. The white is madcap.
Ethan Ross
Obscure references are his bread and butter.
Cooper Gray
I remember that in the storytime of the first 2 issues some Sup Forumscucks were saying that the golden skull was based on Trump. It's funny that whenever some megalomaniacal, amoral billionaire appears in a book, it must be a jab at Trump, nevermind that it is a classic comic villain archetype. It's almost as if Sup Forums thought worse of the president than anyone else.
William Morgan
go and be a fat mexican tranny somewhere else
Nicholas Garcia
Ewing is working on a whole other level of meme-ing right now. He truly is /ourguy/.
Robert Price
>Kindly couple...of punches to the face
Ewing, you magnificent bastard
Gabriel Bell
>his pants are just compression shorts
Finally, an answer to the age old question
Alexander Watson
Damn, that reference went right over my head until you pointed it out.
Dominic Wood
>Dawn of Justice >Kindly couple I see what we're doing here and I approve. Vary rarely can Marvel poke fun at DC and not have it come off just feeling sad.
James Perez
>I'll G-Moz it for you
Is deadpool the monitor of the marvel multiverse?
Brody Myers
Threads for Secret Empire are going to be a dumpster fire
Adam Mitchell
>alpha >pi(i don't know how to make that on my shitty keyboard) >57 >omega mocking both marvel and dc relaunches in the same issue
William Perry
also why use the greek letter for pi? I think the joke would be funnier if it was just spelled out pi like alpha and omega was.
Aaron Reyes
THIS MERC THIS MONSTER
Ian Sullivan
holy fuck one of the best single issues I've read in a while
Mason Sanchez
Ewing has some strengths, but Imo this is one of the most important. He understands the fanbase, and at the same time he has a good relationship with Marvel. He can walk the fine line between fans who hate Bendis and tie-ins and events, and a company that meddles with their writers work and forces them to make good publicity even if they are at their worse. So he can write a self deprecating issue like this one, and at the same time hype readers for books like royals or ultimates2. He knows what to say. He knows that "nothing will ever be the same" is an empty promise, so he looks for different ways to get the attention of the reader.
Adrian Jenkins
thanks for taking over and actually being competent at storytimes
Luis Howard
This is true. Dr. Druid used be be called Dr. Droom but his name was retconned when he reappeared because Dr. Doom was more popular.
William Harris
>The Silver Age style "covers" >Old obscure villain >Deadpools narrations for Red Hulk >All the jabs at both Marvel and DC
This comic is too good for this world
Jeremiah Johnson
Jesus christ this was awful and unreadable It's like ewing can't write a comic book story
Grayson White
So I'm not the only one reading the General in Cotton Hill's voice am I?
Brody White
>That flag video Holy shit, that's some autism keikaku. Thanks for the storytime OP.
Jason Ramirez
>Ewingfags actually thinking those are intelligent jabs. No wonder people make fun of you guys.
Caleb Edwards
oh look, they're so triggered they're doing the tumblr thing o f tying wi th mis ing lette s and dumb sp aces
Christopher Brooks
too much doom . they had to make victor special
Asher Howard
Knowing Ewing, there is a 50/50 chance that the Tommy Gun is a reference to some forgotten story.
Lincoln Martinez
Only Ewing would pull this kind of continuity callback.
Noah Campbell
>what a revoltin' development >guess what time it is "Please, Tom, let me write Ben Grimm!"
Noah Rivera
Yeah, no. They just wrecked Not-Schwanstein. That's gonna cut into that college fund.
Samuel Rodriguez
Such glorious nonsense!
Levi Johnson
>You're the guy from the memes
Mr. Ewing, if you're watching this thread, thank you for writing fun comics.
Jaxon Fisher
>Tom Selleck Hulk
Love this so much.
Dominic Taylor
Are you for real senpai?
Kayden Brooks
We're going full Zombo here.
Ryder Richardson
>the fucking total eclipse of the heart lyrics
William James
Eh, he's never mentioned Pee-Pee Cancer yet.
Jace Lewis
USAvengers is even goofier than New Avengers, which honestly means I'm less into it as a book, but it's still pretty slick.
Lucas Hall
Oh man, I just realized, he's an evil foreign Walter White.
Austin Campbell
Foreign? I think he's a local.
Angel Rogers
EVERYONE THAT ISN'T AMERICAN IS A FOREIGNER, SON.
>RANT ZONE You got that right, Captcha!
Blake Stewart
Ewing's deadpool is pretty fun
Noah Martin
Were you genuinely so triggered you stopped the story part way?
