Since the Sue and Reed's kid(s) are mentioned. It had been a source of amusement in the 80ies; that the smartest people on Earth didn't know their son's friends were the Power Pack.
 
In fairness, Doom had all the power of Every Beyonder. What was Strange gonna do?
iirc Strange was first in line to get all that phenomenal cosmic power but decided to let doom have the reigns at the last second because, again, lmao

Honestly I think the marvel writers just have a cuck fetish. The skrull secret invasion was just one big lottery to see who was secretly being cucked the hardest. Blackbolt lost that draw the hardest imo
 
One more thing, if you're talking about the time their son gets a bisexual pink haired, Asian, twink BF, that shit got retconned just a few months later. Same happened with one of the Robin's who also coincidentally got a bisexual pink haired Asian twink for a BF, just around the same time.
...one of the writers is a pink haired Asian twink self-inserting, aren't they?
 
She ends up with Ben Grimm (his best friend) in the end, adding insult to injury.
Maker is a sad cunt.

If people want to read anything from the old ultimate universe, read the spider-man stuff. Ultimates and (more or less) the rest became pretty hard edgefests in the end.

Anyway Marvel Rivals....slop, but entertaining enough.
Fuck Iron Fist though, that cunt can eat a dick.
Ultimate Spider Man and X Men were pretty good, I actually even like some of the x men stuff after the shitshow that was Ultimatum especially with the one Wolverine child whose entire gimmick is "he was given a good life and wasnt tortured/was a super soldier experiment" for once
 
American Comics just can't handle marriages whatsoever, it's like stable & happy relationships are their Kryptonite, there are some legendary comic fuck-ups related to just marriages alone (the X-MEN Northstar Nurse marriage being my personal favorite one).

There is a glimmer of hope. This run of Spider-Man has been top tier.

Now, fellow Thor Bros, you ready to be able to actually use your ult? I know I am. I was kinda at my wits end being interrupted every time I try to ult by one of the 15 fucking stuns in the game.
 
I appreciate the gameplay isn't full of wall running, dashing and movement tech, but it does look kinda hilarious if you're an observer. The 'big battle room' for a point is literally just an empty room and people jump walk left and right while aiming and shooting. Just.. "go into this room and do shit til things die". No height advantages or anything, just.. shoot pew pew.
 
My nephews that are still on the younger side have been playing this non-stop.

Of course it's derivative junk found at the bottom of a rut.
My boss still jerks off to this game. It looks better than Overwatch, but I don't want to give Marvel (and Disney since it owns Marvel) my money (and I hate Netease).

Damn, Rivals might be the best official media with Fantastic Four in it in recent times.
It's crazy how this game is more respectful to Marvel properties and IPs than Marvel and Disney themselves. If they ever add Miles, I hope everybody shits on him to piss off the fake fans and woke faggots.

I'm sorry-- I'm confused... am I seeing a new comic-book based piece of media with sexy women in it with additional sexy costumes? There isn't awkward diversity shit and characters looking like racist caricatures. And it looks like fun??? Am I having a stroke? How is this Marvel??

I swore to never give Disney money again but I am TEMPTED.
 
It is an obvious solution to the support problem, just make them all hot women. Before the weird trannys took over Overwatch it's a reason Mercy was so popular. Then they stopped making younger Ana skins, added androgynous Moira, they/them faggot Venture, uggo black woman Sojourn, Brigitte they hide, and then spam faggots like Baptiste and Fagweaver. It's not rocket science that the two attractive heroes relatively recently added, Kiriko and Juno, are popular.
 
So, played it a little bit. Game ain't half bad, the roaster is rather surprising (though I dunno why Punisher is here), kinda makes me wonder if they're gonna add Deadpool at any point.
 
Turns out my laptop, which is able to run games like RE8 at 60 fps, but on all low low settings.

Is banned from running this game, I got a message telling me straight up just NO, because of my hardware specs.

I had to rely on the Nvidia GeForce App to play it.
 
A lot of fun, reminds me of early Overwatch when every character was a blast to play. Seems like the devs have closely observed the rise and fall of OW, and are making small changes to Rivals to avoid going down that route. By doing things like raising up the weak heroes and giving slight nerfs to the OP ones. I love tanking with a good team, Venom is my personal fave right now, you get to be an annoying troll and then leave, exactly like classic Venom would do.

Competitive is actually enjoyable. The games are so fast, the queue is instant, and you don't lose a lot of ranked points when defeated. My only negative experiences are from the influx of kids who type like black people and get nasty in the chat. A lot of pigheadedness even in Gold 1 which I am stuck at for now. To be expected from a free game, especially one that succeeded Overwatch, which has one of the worst communities to date.

To anyone worrying about giving money to China, I understand. The game is free however, and you can hop on and play forever without paying a cent. The whales will do their thing in the end. AFAIK, you cannot say certain anti-CCP shit in the chat, but I do love to point out often how Iron Fist (the chinese rep) is so strong and Captain America was so weak in Season 0. Makes you think.

Yeah Ive never played a hero shooter like this before, Valorant is as close as Ive come.

And it really does feel like a left click click click kinda game lol.
