	I'm more surprised that Marvel is bringing back Toro. When was the last time he was in a book? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm senseing some Avengers/Invaders crapola. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	That. Sounds. AMAZING!! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	jeyl 2009-06-16 01:29 pm UTC (link)
	Hehe. That's one flat foot on the Herc cover. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	midnightvoyager 2009-06-16 01:48 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, that's definitely a shoe heel, not a foot heel. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	mullon 2009-06-16 01:41 pm UTC (link)
	I wonder what Mystique is doing with Hercules. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	proteus_lives 2009-06-16 05:54 pm UTC (link)
	What Mystique does with everyone, eventually. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	savok 2009-06-16 01:52 pm UTC (link)
	I don't know if that Herc cover is in character /ridiculous nitpicking (well depending on how young that kid is anyway). It seems more likely he'd use the opportunity to give the boy lessons on the finer points of the female body. (Reply to this)

	tahngarth 2009-06-16 02:01 pm UTC (link)
	Suwan turned evil? (Reply to this)

	his_spiffyness 2009-06-16 02:37 pm UTC (link)
	Since that Herc cover was just asking to get iconed... (Reply to this) (Thread)

	zegim 2009-06-17 12:16 am UTC (link)
	I'm snagging it, if you don't mind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	his_spiffyness 2009-06-17 07:09 am UTC (link)
	That's what it's there for :) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Nova cover mania21 2009-06-16 03:29 pm UTC (link)
	For those curious about the guy on Nova's cover, take a look here. http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix4/monarkstarstalker.html I have to say that I love what DnA are doing in marvel's cosmos. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Re: Nova cover halloweenjack 2009-06-16 04:17 pm UTC (link)
	Created by Howard Chaykin Whoa! Get Chaykin off of whatever he's doing on Squadron Supreme and back on this character! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	erlgirl_9 2009-06-16 03:31 pm UTC (link)
	That languorously lovely wicked woman has some fantastically flat feet going on. Oh well. It's a hard life, being a stereotype... (Reply to this)

	khaosworks 2009-06-16 08:20 pm UTC (link)
	Isn't Toro dead? And his death involved the Mad Thinker, too, IIRC. Hmmm... (Reply to this) (Thread)

	(Anonymous) 2009-06-16 09:06 pm UTC (link)
	IIRC, Toro's body was never found. An old man with the same powers later appeared in Power Pack calling himself Mr Raymond. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	volksjager 2009-06-16 10:30 pm UTC (link)
	Yup it was really fucked up. Toro was made to believe he was the torch and well...oh never mind. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	freeman333 2009-06-17 12:26 am UTC (link)
	Man, when they said a character "from Marvel's cosmic past" would come back, I immediately started hoping it would be this guy... (Reply to this)

	silvercatmon.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 12:32 am UTC (link)
	I will not pick up New Mutants. I will not pick up New Mutants. I will... WANT NEW MUTANTS NOW!! Hopefully, I will have forgotten all about New Mutants by the time I get around to going to the comic book store. (Reply to this)
