"Wrecked."

An annoying thing I used to do to an old boss, was to never use the proper names for any systems or anything I was doing. "That thing, the one that you enter stuff, in the upper left, isn't working." Fortunately, we worked together a long time and she usually knew what I was talking about. Yeah, that's not going to work with Red She-Hulk, since I don't think whoever mysteriously gave her the mission ever appeared with her.

I thought Tigra and Hank Pym's relationship lasted quite a while, despite him being replaced by a Skrull for a fair chunk of it; but I'm not sure if they're still going or not. Feel like not? Is Hank even alive? We're really getting into "look it up" territory. But I do feel like Tigra would maybe see Jan Van Dyne in a less favorable light.

Last I remember Ultron & Hank fused, must be almost decade now? I do know Hank wanted to help Tigra raise him up until the part where she dumped him on her cat people relatives in their cat people world/dimension/whatever.

I'm sure it's probably complicated if she does have heat w/ Jan. Maybe tension there for being eskimo sisters? Pretty sure Jan slings her goodies too, she's just more discreet about it.

Deathlok's huh? Probably not the main stage bosses, but no less problematic.
A Deathlok's currently causing problems for Conan & his Savage Avengers right now, so Deathlok as a character seems to be in pretty high demand these days. Good for him.

I didn't even know there was more than one Deathlok running around at a time. Are they like Sentinels, where they're pumping them out of a factory? Whatever the case, somebody's digging up a bunch of dead guys.

At least we know that who- or whatever is behind this is male and can transform people between identities. Doesn't narrow things down much but it's something at least.

I was figuring it's Kang, since he can probably shift a person up or down their timeline. Or maybe, did the FF have a villain named Chronos? Dumpy-looking bald guy?

Tigra getting with hank Pym was always a little weird to me, seeing as Tigra had just joined the Avengers when Hank smacked Jan, and Tigra seemed pretty firmly in the, "Hank's a piece of crap," camp at that time. But the whole thing between her and Hank started when Englehart was writing West Coast Avengers and had Tigra ready to jump just about any guy she saw, so take from that what you will.

@CalvinPitt:

Kang or the High Evolutionary, or even the Leader since it involves a Hulk. Maybe all three or some combination of all 3 for...reasons.

@H: Yeah Deathlok is definitely getting the Sentinel treatment here and has ever since Rick Remender used him during his X-Force run, but then Aaron and some others decided to ramp that shit up, thus here we are. And again, hey, good on Deathlok for getting the spotlight love. Any gig's a good gig right?
