Did anyone else hate the two page spread in the back? Its completely useless. We've seen the facility before, there's on line of dialogue, its just taking up space that could have been used for real story. My copy doesn't even have the same coloring on each page of the spread. One is noticeably darker. It really got under my skin.

When? When Peter registered. To quit? Nope. The only thing that truly goes against the registration act is that it does not offer choice. To drive, you need a license. You don't have to get a license, but if you drive without one and get caught, there will be consequences. The same thing should apply here, but it doesn't. That whole Nitro and New Warriors event fell victim to what happens when just about any event like this turns political. People forget who the real villains are and what the real tragedy is.

So, they got Cloak, Wiccan and Daredevil, and it looks like it's the Negative Zone there.
I think Punisher made a plan for Daredevil to infiltrate in the prison and free the teleporters, then they call every anti-reg to the negative zone and free al the prisoners, but Tigra will tell Tony Stark and there will be a huge battle in issue 7. :wink:

Cloak, Wiccan and Daredevil might not show up. So far, the covers had been a pretty fair representation of what happened in the issue, but after CW #5's cop-out with the villains, I'm not sure. Of course, having those three on the cover, in what appears to be the Negative Zone, then having them not appear, would be even worse than having a symbolic shot of three or four characters who don't even appear for more than one panel, so I'm hoping that Cloak, Wiccan and Daredevil get some action.

Wiccan used to be Asgardian. He changed his name.

I agree. This is now officially gay. Can we just forget it ever happened? Oh nope, we can't. Everyone's identity is known, and Marvel is wanting to exagerate all the reprecusions.
It pains me this hasn't ended yet.

I really like McNiven's art. I wish Millar would do JLA with him. :shock:

I didn't notice at first, but I just reread CW5 and YOU CAN'T EVEN SEE DAREDEVIL AND TONY IN THE LAST PAGE. Where did they get all that vibranium alloy?! Is this going to be like how kryptonite, "the rarest mineral ever", can be found by any two-bit thug? There's this one issue of Superman where some random thugs have a catapult built into their get-away tank and they toss a chunk of kryptonite bigger than his head at him.
THIS IS MORE RIDICULOUS THAN THAT.
They somehow managed to make blueprints (well, Tony probably did that beforehand), import all the HUGELY EXPENSIVE EXTREMELY RARE VIBRANIUM and the huge construction tools to the EXTREMELY RARE NEGATIVE ZONE PORTALS, get them all through the portals, build a prison BIGGER THAN NEW YORK with an advanced AI guarding it and cells specially catered to dozens of different powers in maybe a WEEK, and yet PEOPLE STILL DRIVE NORMAL CARS AND THERE ARE CONSTRUCTION SITES VISIBLE in some drawings of New York.
If I were an American taxpayer, and murderers were roaming the street even though there was a ******* prison bigger than Rhode Island, and I was still late to work from construction sites when they did the modern equivalent of BUILDING ROME IN A DAY, I would join the Thing in France, because seriously, WHAT. THE. HELL. Normally, I would just brush this off as "comic book logic", but the ENTIRE POINT of Civil War is REALISM.
Man, you just know I'm going to grow up and spend all my time in comic book shops complaining about how in issue 209 of Action Man, he can't lift a car over his head even though in issue 156 he clearly lifts the equivalent weight of a car in bricks.

Well Tony likes to plan ahead and I think Sentry is providing the portal. Also i think they built a permanent one like shown in issue five. And Shield was excavating vibranium from the savage land soooo...

I never expected a great story out of Civil War anyway.With so many heroes it was really obvious things were gonna get messy.
Have to admit , the only thing I was interested about the Civil War was heroes fighting each other.And so far I didn't get much of that either. Everything happens so fast ...
The only fight that took a little time was Cap vs Spidey , and it's only because Spidey talks too much.
The other fights are usually lame. Thor enters the battlefield , lol he killed Goliath , and saying that takes longer than the action.
The second kinda long one was Iron Man vs Spidey , which takes like 6 pages if you combine Civil War #5 , and ASM #536 , and the action between the heroes is just 2 punches!!!
Civil War is clearly not what we asked for
so please stop whining and go with the flow. It's all about collecting it now.

I had hope with Civil War until after Iron Man vs Spidey in CW#5
After that point not getting #6 and #7 would be a shame, that story needs to be completed. And well , he probably should

Trouble. I know its a cheap shot, but there it is.
I don't care anymore. At first I tried to completely avoid Civil War, then i bought a big chunk of it and was less than impressed. Now I'm just gonna pick up what I want to, Civil War connections be damned.

It's fine. I mean, McNiven is sick. Let the guy rest as much as he can/needs to.
That really wasn't that bad.

wow what a pair
millar has chrons disease, and mcniven get's strep throat
these are pretty good excuses for books being late, i don't understand why people are so upset about it
atleast they didn't dump another 12 tie-ins on us to make up for it
