Trick question! Cap and 3 villains replace them, in one of the best comic curve balls of all time! Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver and Hawkeye!!

 

Let's keep it on old school Avengers...

 

Hank Pym was a terror Looong before they made him a wife beater (worst ongoign idea ever). Anyways, his mental illness directly led to the creation of what 2 heroes and 1 villain?

Is this a Hank Pym's alter egos question? Because I can work that mojo big time...

 

Ant-Man, Giant-Man, Yellowjacket, Dr. Pym, and he built Ultron.

Right... PLus he was Goliath for a while, when he lost the ability to shrink back to normal size temporarily... Ultron later went on to build what two other characters?

 

Double followup: What hero dropped their costumed identity to become Giant Man for a period when Pym was Yellowjacket (best Pym character ever).

Ah, ya bastage, Goliath is going deep. I thought of it but figure that was too :nerd:y for anyone.

 

The Vision and Jocasta.

Hawkeye became Giant-Man 2 with a Rob Halford-pleasing half shirt.

 

There was also a black Giant Man, can't recall the details of the dude right now.

Oh, and props to Yellowjacket, that was a GREAT creation.

 

Here's a beaut for you - if you know the Shi'ar Imperial Guard, what DC group did Dave Cockrum base them on?

You can't possibly get 'too nerdy" on me...

heh, that's absolutely right!! Especially that Halford comment!

Don't remember how he got his powers, but he had a horribly fantastic 70's costume... but the key thing to know about him now is a Thor Clone blew a hole threw him and killed him in Cival War recently.

If i remember correctly, a couple of the characters were actually designed FOR the Legion book, but he left and reused the designs at Marvel (some of his X-Men designs came from that too, like Storm and Nightcrawler).

 

Read a GREAT article in a mag called Back Issue - one of my co-stars in the zombie movie I starred in brought it and I checked it during some down-time :D - but anyway, it was basically a conversation between Cockrum and Mike Grell about their time on Legion, and how Cockrum wanted to totally redesign the LoSH costumes but DC wouldn't let him so he basically took it all with him to Marvel when he took over X-Men and it resulted in the coolest-looking (well, for the 70s) super-team out there.

What character's "brain scan peronality" (or somethign) did Ultron steal to use as Jocasta's programmed personality?

Janet Pym

double bubble:

 

What body did Ultron use to create the Vision?

 

The original Human Torch.

 

This level of depth means you know whose "brain scan personality" (or something) Ultron used to program the Vision, and what his super-villain name his brother traveled under?

Backissue! #14, Jan 06. I don't know that it's worth $9, but I know I've spent nine bucks on worse things.

Details to be found here.

 

It's done, but the director said he hasn't gotten the edit to where he wants it yet - and since he looked a bit crazy about the eyes after filming and editing a 25-minute movie for about 3 months, I wasn't going to press him.

I think he was one of the old-school Masters of Evil, so probably Baron Zemo.

Question:

 

How many people have been "Captain America"?

 

 

4. Maybe 5? I remember the annual where they looked at all the guys who wore the mask. Published in the 80's, my first run in with the wacked out 50's Cap who replaced Steve Rogers.

Red: can do anything, if i remember. like its totally unkown what it will do

Yellow: depowers him forever?
