Koi no yokan (Japanese) - the sense when meeting a person that the two of you are going to fall in love; differs from “love at first sight” as it does not imply that the feeling of love exists, only the knowledge that a future love is inevitable.
First of all, there are too damn many Avengers books out right now. I mean, gdi there’s Uncanny Avengers, Avengers, New Avengers, Secret Avengers, Young Avengers, Avengers Arena, Avengers Assemble, and now Avengers A.I.
MARVEL THIS SHIT HAS GOT TO STOP
I’m currently reading (out of all of those) Avengers Assemble, Secret, New, and plain old Avengers. Since you only asked about the three, I won’t babble about Secret or Assemble, though. ;)
- Uncanny is the one that I am not reading. I tried it and I couldn’t get into it, which bummed me out because I thought Remender’s run on X-Force was the greatest thing to ever happen to that title. There’s just nothing in Uncanny that engaged me. I don’t think it’s a bad book, necessarily, it’s just not for me.
- New is awesome. Nicki stopped reading it, but if you give me T’Challa, Strange, and Namor in the same book, it’s basically like giving a fat kid an entire cake topped with ice cream. I love the tension between the characters and the terrible things they’re doing in the name of saving the world. Moral ambiguity always gets me, and if you looked up the term, there would be a picture of this cast next to it.
- Avengers is fucking genius. I don’t know if you could tell from what I said about New Avengers, but I have a Hickman Problem. In that I think he’s fucking brilliant and his stories are so cosmic and epic and make me feel really small and afraid, and if you’re writing superhero comics, your readers SHOULD be afraid. If there’s no tension to your writing, it’s just people in spandex punching each other (which is what DC has devolved into, much to my sorrow) and nine times out of ten when I’m reading Hickman, I audibly gasp several times during the comic. I love him. I’m going to stare at him like a creep at Heroes and resist all attempts to make me go talk to him. I love his comics, you guys, you don’t understand. He gave me back Fantastic Four after I thought I would never be able to love it again.
- Hickman!
- HICKMAAAANNNNNNN!!!!!! *fistshake*
Okay, so. That devolved into madness and I apologize.
So I was looking for a HQ picture of Hawkeye for costume reference and I find this. It was a bit grainy because it was so zoomed out. I zoom in and my mind is BLOWN.
I mean LOOK
HOW
IS THIS
LEGAL?
It’s not - Clint Barton is actually illegal in twelve states, two provinces, and four countries.
Phil has the paperwork to prove it.

The Avengers by zgul-osr1113
The Avengers Space Horror AUIn 2079 the Loki, a SHIELD Corporation deep space research vessel, ceases communication with Earth. Its final transmission is a cry for help, followed by white noise. SHIELD Corp. employs a North Atlantic Marine Corps search and rescue unit to investigate the mystery, and look for possible survivors.
After fifty-six days, North Atlantic Marine Corps Vessel The Avenger, consisting of a crew of nine, docks in Neptune’s orbit.
Even though no traces of human activity are found, the crew decide to follow their mission parameters and board the Loki. Welcomed by the sight of blood-drenched corridors and sensor readings bordering on impossible, soon it becomes clear the crew might be in for more than any of them bargained for.
Black Widow has never been so clearly rattled by anything as the prospect of going up against the Hulk. As an espionage agent, her modus operandi is to manipulate her targets into underestimating her and then revealing their plans to her in their own overconfidence—a move that works well against Russian gangsters, Asgardian Norse gods, and genius billionaire playboy philanthropists alike. In actual combat, Natasha is a master of human-level martial arts and firearms. And the Hulk terrifies her because none of her tactics work on him. The Hulk can’t be manipulated or reasoned with, and worse, his actions are completely unpredictable. Guns don’t work on him, nor hand-to-hand combat without superhuman power. No wonder she’s freaked out by him even as a seasoned agent: her only option is to run like hell. Her eventual acceptance of Hulk/Banner as a teammate is arguably the bravest thing she does in the movie.
