Driftwood: Well, I got about a foot and a half. Now, it says, uh, "The party of the second part shall be known in this contract as the party of the second part."
Fiorello: Well, I don't know about that...
Driftwood: Now what's the matter?
Fiorello: I no like-a the second party, either.
Driftwood: Well, you should've come to the first party. We didn't get home 'til around four in the morning... I was blind for three days!
Alright, I went out ant bout New Avengers #16 and I'm ticked at Bendis' total lack of regard for even doing his freaking homework. Where's Thunder? We see Mapleleaf, but it doesn't make any freaking sense that he would be in a fight this big without Thunder, that would be suicide. So either MM is a total moron or Bendis just... forgot.
Good lord. Could they show any less regard for the fans of Alpha Flight? I'm American and I'm offended by the lack of care taken for the Canadian people. I mean... this is just stupid.
I'm honestly wondering about Thunder though. Where is he?
I seriously want the Walter stuffed animal from AF #106. Seriously.

Bendis (IMO) did a horrible job with AF's portrayal in NA #16 and showed how little he cares about the characters and their fans.
At the end of AF Vol. 3 Thunder had joined the League of Super Pets IIRC.
Lol, I think the League of Super Pets was satire?Bendis (IMO) did a horrible job with AF's portrayal in NA #16 and showed how little he cares about the characters and their fans.

But yah, Bendis is an okay writer 85% of the time, and a brilliant writer 5% of the time, but when he screws up... Well that other 10% is always REALLY BAD. Did you read Avengers Dissassembled? I finally bothered to read the entire thing and was astonished at the crapitude. The man... He just needs more time to think about plot.
Isn't the League of Super Pets a DC thing, anyway?
It just doesn't make any sense. Ugh. You'd think that MMjr would get Thunder from the League even if there was a league. The kid must have some sense of self preservation... I personally think that Bendis just didn't do his homework. That or the artist didn't, in not putting Thunder in there.
And that's just ridiculous. If you're gonna kill off the chars, at least learn something about them first.

It wasn't satire, maybe it was meant to be sardonic. Either way it was a lame joke. However, if Vol. 3 is being accepted as part of AF's continuity then I guess so is this.
I guess I've only caught 10% of his work then, cause I have yet to read anything of his that is good. Not that I've read all, or even a lot of his stuff, but I'm still waiting to see something that justifies everyone's love for this guy.
Try Jinx, Torso and Goldfish.
Are those books or characters? I've never heard of them.
EDIT: Never mind, I Googled them and checked out wikipedia. AKA Goldfish sounds interesting as I love noir. Maybe I'll try to find it at my LCS. Thanks Phil.
The above three books and Powers are the only thing of his I've liked.
I didn't read his Spawn related stuff, but so far I haven't enjoyed any of his MU stuff. Not slating him as a writer or jumping on any hate mob bandwagon, it's just not my cup of lager.
I agree about his Marvel work, nothing I like there. In fact I hate everything I've seen so far, but I'll check out AKA Goldfish as it sounds like something I'd be into.
Why does Puck say that he's going to do the talking in this issue, I wonder? I mean, he's got Guardian and Vindicator, the big 'leaders' right there, doesn't it make more sense to have them talk?
And since when was Heather using the geothermal suit?

Since Vol.2 #1...
(LM cranes his neck and points)
Over there, just to the left of 'camera'...
- Le Messor
"auslachen - German for "to attack and disarm someone by making jokes at his expense."
Used for glue...
I never actually caught the whole, Thunder missin' thing.
