Obviously, HYDRA has to have a leader; this gang of frustrated and obnoxious men wouldn’t have organized itself without someone pulling them all together. Since old men have been manipulating young men into fighting their wars for them for as long as humans have been waging war, it made sense to me to make Baron Zemo HYDRA’s big boss.
But, don’t worry, Red Skull fans; he’s scheduled to make an appearance soon enough…
Speaking of frustrated, Spider-Man can’t catch a break with Spider-Woman, can he? On the one hand, she was supposed to leave the Avengers and NYC to go back to Denver, and she hasn’t, which might be a sign that Spider-Man has a chance with her. On the other hand, she has explicitly and repeatedly told him that she doesn’t want to date him. What’s a guy who doesn’t know how to talk to women supposed to do?
It’s probably obvious to even a casual reader by now that I’m, to varying degrees of success and failure, photographically blowing up Hot Wheels and/or Matchbox cars to serve as many of the vehicles in the Phil Wrede Marvel Action Figure Comic Universe. For one thing, they’re a heck of a lot cheaper than vehicles scaled to actually fit Marvel Legends-sized characters, and for another, they’re so much more plentiful. You can get yourself so very many Hot Wheels for the cost of a motorcycle that a 6-inch tall action figure can actually sit on.
