All-New, Reacquired Avengers #61 – ‘Ain’t Nothin’ But A Heartache’

Posted on September 14, 2022September 19, 2023 by phil.wrede
Within the Daily Bugle building, J. Jonah Jameson shouts for his intern, Miles Morales. Miles stands just behind Jonah. The title of the comic strip, “All-New, Reacquired Avengers Presents… ‘Ain’t Nothin’ But A Heartache’,” is visible at the top of the image.
Miles tries to have a conversation with Jonah, but the Daily Bugle’s editor-in-chief has no interest in talking, not when there’s podcasting that needs to be done.
Jonah rants in annoyance about people’s lack of work ethic and passion these days, slamming a door in Miles’ face, and telling him not to step through it, until he’s ready to work.
Miles reluctantly steps into the office, and gets ready to record another Daily Bugle podcast episode.
Jonah loudly introduces this new episode of ‘Revile,’ and thanks one of their sponsors, Roxxon, at the top of the recording.
Jonah breaks the exclusive news that Tony Stark will be retaking ownership and leadership of the Avengers. An American leading American heroes, once again, Jonah cheers. Miles quietly points out that Domino, who had until recently been the Avengers chair under King T’Chaka’s direction, is a native New Yorker.
Jonah excitedly introduces a guest to provide commentary: Thor, the God of Thunder and Encouragement!
When asked what he most excitedly anticipates from Tony Stark’s return to leadership, Thor immediately mentions that he hopes the Coke Freestyle machines are reinstalled in Avengers Tower.
Jonah kicks Thor off the video call, and pivots to thank the show’s other sponsor, which he wasn’t aware was Stark Industries.

Jonah would probably take a large share of the credit for Tony Stark’s recent takeback of the Avengers from King T’Chaka of Wakanda, and he might be right, but not in the way that he thinks he is. He’d say that his holding the powerful monarch to account caused T’Chaka to rethink his “plan” to spread his influence across the United States of America. (imagined solely by J. Jonah Jameson, with no evidence to back it up). Really, though, as T’Chaka admitted to Tony Stark, people like Jonah are such a drain on the king’s time that he’s willing to do whatever he can to avoid them. But, Jonah’s got to Jonah, so he’ll editorialize the story within an inch of its life!

Also, Thor and Miles aren’t a duo I’d expected to enjoy as much as I do, but I have to find more reasons to pair them up.

Welcome to PizzaRat dot Net, where I (Phil Wrede) post my toy comics!

The Idea

Comics, but with photos, instead of drawings.

The Process

Using stock photos as backgrounds, and digitally pasting photos of action figures over them. Graphic design software enables the lettering.

The Point

To make comics, to share stories, and to retroactively justify all the money I've spent on action figures over the years.
