Karnilla's a Goddess, the whole idea of her being permanently destroyed is meh. It makes perfect sense to me for Karnilla to recover and want revenge. And the idea of someone with Karla's personality being forced into being the apprentice of a goddess amuses me greatly. :D

I took it more as bickering and picking between the two. Although I did like the shot of Hulk swinging Ben by his ankle, using him to smash Doombots. Had to snicker over that. Yeah, Doom was great in this, easily handling both teams with nary a sweat. Loved the metallic voice as well. Off to a good start.

I thought that was cool, but what was with Maria Hill's attitude toward the X-Men? I guess they are hated and feared in that world too, even by the gummint.
Speaking of cameos, did you guys see Jean Grey and Magneto in Iron Man Armored Adventures last week?

Is this cartoon set in the same universe as Wolverine & the X-Men?
I liked Tony & Maria talking about registration. Even though there's far fewer heroes here, it still felt organic.
Tony playing with the hard light shield during the meeting was fun.
I really liked the Scientist Supreme's voice. The annoymous teamwork of AIM scientists also warms the cockles of my heart.
Did anyone else find Rhodey's line about looking out for Tony to be a bit slashficcy?
The actual threat of the episode was a bit underwhelming. Technovore not completely eating out an unarmored Tony's heart when he's keyed up for arc reactors without any significant excuse was lazy. The AIM guys were just shooting generic lazers instead of wierder tech was disappointing.

Enchantress taking down the Masters of Evil was badass.
I'm still not sure what's up with Executioner's markings. Are they supposed to be tattoos?
I hate the voice-over intro.

Who is Kinestro? Ne-ver heard him of till now. (Same with the Technovore. Is this from the comics or just for the cartoon?)
If we are getting some adaption of the Twilight Sword Saga, that would be cool.
Bad news about the possible eventual cancellation though.

I just heard about this possible cancellation. Ummm wtf, Marvel? Why do they always ruin a good thing? I understand viewership might not be what they want it to be, but I bet (and almost guarantee) that they'll see an upswing after the movie comes out. Because, well, duh. This show is so well-written, and it appeals so well to both adults and kids, cancelling it would make me very sad AND mad (especially now that they're going a little cosmic). Uuuugh, I do not like this news one bit!!

This last episode was great! Been waiting for Ms. Marvel for so long and was so excited she was such a huge badass in this. Plus we got to see Agent Brand too.
I'm ready for the Kree/Skrull war already!

Its hard to blame Marvel for this...unless by Marvel you mean Disney, since they might want to cancel it because of low ratings LOL
SO apparently Ms. Marvel knows Faith..."5x5"

Chemistro is a Power Man foe & a lesser Master of Evil. I think Technovore was in one Iron Man story.
Ms. Marvel & Abigail Brand! HELL'S YEAH!!!

Finally saw the latest episode just now. And it was pretty much the best episode I've ever seen on this show. So, hell yeah.

I didnt notice it before, but I love that Carol's voice is done by the same actress as FemShepard.

I just realized SWORD's base is Kang's Damocles ship. That's why Brand couldn't get the AI to work. I glad they didn't try to soften Ms. Marvel's beatdown by Ronan's hammer at the beginning. It made her comeback all the more awesome. I hope we'll get to see some of the Serpent Society in LA that was mentioned.

Cage & Fist were awesome. Crossfire, on the other hand, sucks.

I literally just said the same thing...
I think this Power Man and Iron Fist are far better than the pair in Ult. Spidey...Luke Cage actually had a personality. And Iron Fist isn't cliche...plus throw in Ant-Man and Misty Knight and you have a great cartoon on your hands.
I loved the random Power Man and Iron Fist baddies they beat up...

Were those henchmen based on real Heroes for Hire foes? One guy in the alley looked like Shang-Chi. The guy with the gold harpoons was almost interesting. The rest of them were terrible. They made Crossfire even duller than he is in the comics. None of the villains were threatening or a challenge. Why not make the Serpent Society the villains to give Pym some closure? Or Taskmaster, who's apparently a favorite of the writers but isn't showing up this season? Or the Zodiac? Or the Hood's gang? Or the Maggia run by Count Nefaria? Even Mr. Fish would've be cooler. The villains were so beneath Cage & Fist (they should team up with Cage & Fish from Ally McBeal) that the end was unsatisfying. The fact that the banks were HYDRA fronts didn't go any where.

Yes they were based on them, hence why so many of them were black and/or Latino looking...
I liked the wink and nod to long-time Cage and Fist fans...I just wish Nightshade or the Cockroach dude had showed up lol...
I didn't expect the Hydra thing to go anywhere, it was to me just showing that A) Hydra's still around and B) that their world is so connected...

It seems that Scott might be on for good. Nice! What do you all think Hank will do? Stay on the team, but not go into the field and strictly do tactical? Continue on as Yellowjacket? Something else? Personally, I'm hoping for Yellowjacket... :)
