Pokernight at the Avenger's mansion !
From Marvel two-in-one. Frank Miller drew it...

Team books IMO are not so much about grand melee , but the little moments between characters during downtime.

So the Thing gets invited to the Avergers mansion to play poker ( they miss his money )

however there can never be a get together without some crisis popping up and the heroes have to rush off and dave the day...

In the end you'd think they would learn to enjoy the fun while it lasts, cause it never does.

This is a junetenah post.

	Ah, Avengers poker nights, that's one thing I miss out of the new stories. Closest thing we had recently was Ben's Bar Mitzvahs/poker tourney. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Hopefully after all the War of Marvels stuff is over the Avengers will settle back into the mansion. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Just aside, that new Infinite Mansion Pym cooked up? Is exactly the kind of thing I expect and enjoy in Avengers. It'll probably try and eat them all eventually, but til then..:) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's Frank Miller? God, I'd forgotten his work ever looked like that. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I am used to thinking of 'Wondy' as Wonder WOMAN, not Wonder MAN. Seeing it used as such is weirding me out somewhat. And damn, this is Frank Miller?! What the hell happened to him? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	He was just starting out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, he got derailed shortly after he left the station, then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I trhink the art is fine FM has just yet to fully develop his personal style yet. He did a few Marvel teams up this way too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That was a critique of his current work, not his early work - I like this artwork just fine. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Team books IMO are not so much about grand melee , but the little moments between characters during downtime. Seconded. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thirded. This is back in the day when Marvel told stories about interesting people with super powers. Loved it. Years ago I read LSH for years because of the "Little moments between characters during downtime" style of writing. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I love how in the last scan Fury is just chilling in a suit and riding in the fantasi-car. Yes, he's that cool. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I can't look at it without laughing since the Venture Brothers send up of the Fantastic car in "Ice Station Impossible". (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Thank you so much for showing this! I truly love 'talky' issues (and thats why I'll read DIVAs to the end). BTW did you ever post the rest of the story when Hitler summoned Thor? (Reply to this) (Thread)
