Still not sure what I think about Angela as part of the Marvel Universe, but that aside this looks pretty awesome! :)

This is one I have to read. I just read Thor #1 and it wasn't bad at all.

I like the idea of an "Asgard Assassin". A lot of potential there.

I loved Thor #1. I was a fan of the idea from the start and I love what Aaron and Dauterman are doing with it. This too looks great, looking forward to reading it.

Love the new icon, btw ;) Spider-Verse is awesome so far.

Dude, I have to catch up on Spider-Verse; I've been falling behind recently. The last issue I read was the first one with the Noir Mysterio. And thanks! It took a while.

I didn't love the Edge of Spider-Verse miniseries overall; the Spider-Gwen chapter was great, but the others I feel you can skip. But the main story's been a blast so far.

Why are all of Marvel's strong female leads 'assassins'?

Gamora
Black Widow
Elektra
Mystique
Angela....

Do it Marvel

@Havenless well technically Black Widow and Gamora are ex assassins, Mystique is more a freedom fighter who occassionally assassinates since it matches her skill sets so well, and Angela isn't an Assassin yet lol.

But Marvel has lots of other strong female leads that aren't assassins too, such as:
Captain Marvel
Ms Marvel
Storm
Spider-Woman
She-Hulk
Hawkeye 2
Spider-Gwen (upcoming)
Silk (upcoming)
Thor
Squirrel-Girl (upcoming)

Plus some Coleads such as
Maria Hill
Medusa
Mockingbird
Spectrum
Ms America
Malinda May (upcoming)
etc...
