The Jimmy Olsen comic and the Lois Lane comic are both full of classic moments! Like that bit in Lois Lane #9 where Lois crashes in the jungle and makes friends with the leopards and becomes their queen. I took a quick peek, but didn't see any times that Lois dressed like a guy. Know of any? |

The call goes out, Avengers Assemble in issue 100 when Hawkeye finds Hercules mind wiped as a circus strongman and the team decides to travel to Olympus on behalf of the beleaguered Demi-God. Swordsman arrives quoting "once an Avenger, always an Avenger", which technically he was. This is a start in redemption for the swashbuckling buccaneer and one I totally jumped with joy for.
Always felt Swordy was more honorable and under-represented in the MU as a villain, deserving better. So the scene of his appearance in a time of need for a fellow teammate made me quite happy. I for one would have bought up a Swordsman series quite readily. He should have been the joyous fun loving Robin Hood of the MU.

Another classic moment is when Hawkeye has the cajones to break into Avengers mansion and tie up Jarvis the butler to highlight his application for new membership. From there with his acceptance to the team he proceeds to becoming the obnoxious jerk in residence as he takes center stage being Cap's numero uno pain in the backseat driver and top ball busting class clown. That is certainly how you become a beloved heroic idol and one of the most notable and memorable Avenger's to fans! Lacking in confidence Clint Barton is NOT! Now that I think about it, Wolverine must have read and memorized the Barton playbook before taking his spot on the X-team. No wonder I love them both, sarcastic smart asses able to back up their talk with action. I know, right?! Clint is the best! My all-time favorite moment from him will always be from Thunderbolts #20   |

But since it's critically-acclaimed, I was curious about your thoughts on the Matt Fraction run from 2012 (did it either rock your world or did it make you pass on it?)  |

It is sad but at least I have a good 40 + years of classic Clint to read over and over again. As far as Fraction's run goes I don't really remember much of it. So I guess that tells you it didn't wow me |

Loved this issue. Byrne’s art(still does mask points/horns better than any artist) and Michelinie’s writing made this such a great one of My favorite comics ever. |

This just perplexes me to no end. What perplexes you? I don't see how an actor portraying a character in a different media can ruin the character for somebody. You ignore that media depiction and move on. The two are completely divorced from one another. |

The two are completely divorced from one another. This is true except any depiction of Hawkeye since the movies that I have read are basically that Hawkeye. |
