"Worked."

What team could Darkhawk possibly mean? And have I actually read any of the comics where he was allegedly a member of that team? And was Darkhawk ever made a legit, card-carrying Avenger? (Reservist!) We'll see next time, but Hasbro hasn't made figures for a couple key members--they've made more of them than they have of the Thunderbolts, but less than they have of the Serpent Society? Well, that narrows things down.

Honestly of the top of my head, the only other 3 groups I personally know Darkhawk was a member of was the Secret Defenders, Losers, and New Warriors...so its the New Warriors isn't it? Yeah has to be. Best of luck for whoever's been made, so what, Nova, Speedball, Firestar, Rage & Night Thrasher? Future Vance Astro doesn't count..or does if you wanted him to? Oh and the Ben Reilly Scarlet Spider guy was a brief member too I think.

Should be fun to play out as always.

Surprised anyone else remembers the Secret Defenders, cause that's my guess. So yeah, wooo 90's rotating membership team! I think a few of them were just guys Doctor Strange grabbed off the street anyway so shouldn't be too hard to assemble a team. Plus, Pool was there for an arc or two so the return of Venompool is something to look for.

Man, Howard has the greatest lines in this one.

Come on Howard, you've teamed up with the Defenders before, you know that's a terrible idea.

Anyway, go New Warriors! We saw Speedball not too long ago, interacting with Moon Knight, so it's a perfect fit. Plus, I have confidence in Night Thrasher's ability to find a level of punching even Moon Knight's not comfortable taking (or that the rest of the Warriors are comfortable watching be inflicted on Moon Knight).

Assuming Satana doesn't handle it herself first. Could probably argue Thunderbolts Code went out the window when Moonstone's weapon whooped the shit outta Sat's boyfriend. Or whatever term she applies to Kurt. "Person I care about enough to put down my liquor," doesn't exactly roll off the tongue, although it was a cute moment.

@Clavin: "Person I care about enough to put down my liquor" is a t-shirt if I ever heard one man. You and Goo should totally go in on that idea together.

I think Howard's got her bottle. I swear, you put something down for a second and an alcoholic taxi-driving duck takes it. On the other hand, free booze!

Mr. Morbid said...

Truth! Never trust an alcoholic anthropomorphic duck

I wouldn't go that far- just make sure you're well stocked and hide anything sharper than car keys.
