the matt fraction cavalcade of whimsy

[mattfraction]

Hey Matt,

Defenders #6 was yet another great issue and so it looks like ..

of course! that's how the immortal weapons work. question is how do THESE immortal weapons work?

[Iron Fist]

You have me pondering now!

Also the revelations in this issue were so good, a few others and myself included are trying to figure out

Spoilers:

the rest of the members on John Aman's team/

Just who are they? Thanks again!

They are.. well, like the immortal weapons and the iron fist timeline, they are all immaculately planned out in their detail (if not execution) in my notebooks. if i have a chance to get it down on the page, i will. you'll get hints and teases in future DEFENDERS issues and... and who knows?

Some hints: pay attention to the lineup. Watch who comes and goes; that's a clue. It's something like a LEAUGE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN, almost. Not deliberately, but... well. I don't want to say more.

Oh! Tell you what, pick up Blake Bell's excellent Bill Everett bio and his collection of Everett comics to read the real and true secret origins of John Aman-- the green mist OF! DEATH! -- as they called him. Anyone that says he's not supposed to be acting villainously doesn't know their fucking history...!

(thanks and i hope you keep enjoying -- coming up with this ridiculous stuff, this dumb level of detail, is part of the job i love. the joy of just Making Stuff Up is unparalleled in this life...)

Well I can't wait for more, Defenders is a book I look forward to reading every month.

When will we see Ant-Man and Nick Fury?

Thanks again Matt.

Thanks again Matt.

Am I the only one hoping it's Eric? He'd be wonderful in this iteration.

Thanks again Matt.

10 and 9

[mattfraction]

yes.

[Slewo.O]

yes.

That's just cold, man.

Either way I'm loving the book, so I guess I can't get butt-hurt if it's a different Ant-Man.

[Iron Fist]

Hey Matt, I was wondering, what happened to Colleen Wing? It's been a long time since we've seen her...

Thanks again.

Making stuff up is better than anything else.

Except food and sex, maybe.
