Maybe Tony Stark was secretly replaced by his cousin Arno Stark from a parallel universe.

Doesn�t this leave a potential �out� so that Marvel can make Stark a good guy again without actually have to do any real work?

Maybe I�m just overthinking this�

It certainly seems to, though She-Hulk’s title never affects the mainstream books that much. If it ain’t written by Bendis, JMS, or Brubaker, it’s pretty much in it’s own little world (and, really, I like it better than way.)

I give the X-Men a pass…primarily because they pretty much minded their own business since M-Day….

The X-Men titles are the worst when it comes to creating that “writing bubble” that makes them seem like they exist in their own universe.

The Initiative was suppose to resolve that, but I think World War Hulk pretty much brough every hero back to Manhatten, which seems to big enough for all of Marvel’s greats to work independently without interacting with each other (the exception to the rule being Wolverine, who is every where at once. Seriously, just admit already that his secondary mutant power is omnipresence.) until the Summer long big event, and by Summer I mean year-long because they love to stretch them up for good year long sales.

Marvel is in a certain place creatively that I believe will only change if there is a shift in the EIC. Joey Q is great at orchestrating the big events; he sucks at the follow up. The next Grand Puba in Chief will have to do a lot of Damage/Continuity Control…that is if he or she isn’t trying too hard to top Quesada. I grew up as a child of Marvel, but DC earns a lot of my cash these days because it seems like they focus on good stories and grand events. There is currently a cohesion to their universe that Marvel has lost. Probably because the big Marvel writers conceive their own mini-verses as opposed to working in the larger context of the Marvel U. (Wow…am I still talking about She-Hulk #21?)

Josh: The plot holes and character inconsistantcies are Marvel’s fault.

Man, how sweet would it have been to have all the past few years of BS screech to a halt and get wrapped up in the pages of lil’ ol’ She-Hulk. Everything, from Civil War to WWH, to One More Day, to the Death of Cap, just….SCREEEEECH. “It was all Tourists from Dimension A!”

Oh well. Tom Welling PUNCH!!!

Ah, tis good to see Vermin and classic Dazzler again…

Also, that one ‘Bah’ panel just kills me. It really does.

I should mention that Slott has noted he only included Monica Rambeau because she had dead parents and childhood powers in Nextwave, that she does not have now.

People not reading She-Hulk is not Marvel’s fault, that would be the reader’s fault.

Make Mine Slott!

Sounds like a fun issue, if you know what the heck is going on.

And not bashing or trying to start anything, but Marvel Editors have had a time making fun of the the “Superboy Punch,” and then they publishes this!? ROFLMAO

So a bunch of plot holes and character inconsistantcies are answered in a single comic that a lot of people aren’t going to read. Make mine Marvel!

My favorite line was seeing Wiccan being shocked he joined the initiative. What’s Tony Stark’s excuse, right? Amen to your review and to Slott’s run on this title. Slott’s attention to detail and plotting gives me hope for his upcoming Spider-Man run no matter how much Marvel tries to screw up Peter Parker…

One question: Did the ending suggest that the �Pugs� switched places, one living the dream.Or did I totally read that wrong.

I didn’t read it that way, thought it’s not impossible. It did, however, give us Jen and Pug happy together without handing a new author a relationship that he may or may not want… :) I’m good with it, though your interpretation works for me as well.
