Probably a little ways down the line, but keep your eyes out in 2009. They live among us...

OMG, Ben just revealed Marvel's 2009 summer Crossover:

Secret Invasion II: Wet N Wild!

[MattDiCarlo]

Ben,

Here's a lob.

What's the one project you're most excited for at Marvel right now?

The Nova Secret Invasion tie-in?

I'm thinking it's either Rucka/Brubaker on DD for an arc or Fraction/Brubaker on Uncanny, personally.

And that mythical Wolverine: First Class/X-Men: First Class crossover that may or may not be existing.

The First Class crossover is gonna be rad, but I'm actually probably most excited for what will be spinning out of Secret Invasion: Inhumans...

...wait and see.

Jay West

That;s what i'm afraid of...

[Greg Owens]

Hey Ben,
Two things....

1. Can you tell whomever green lit the Tomb of Dracula Omnibus that I both love (Awesome idea) and hate them (Oh my poor wallet). But mostly love.

2. Any chance of Marvel making ancillary Criminal stuff? (Toys, posters, t-shirts, pillow shams, footy pajamas, etc)

Thanks,
Greg

[KevinTBrown]

Serious question, sorry to get all deep in this thread: Jessica Alba or Angelina Jolie?

Jeff Shabazz

My lovely fiancee.

Ben Morse

She has him trained well.

Jay West

Now that's one Marvel series I'd buy!






Oh, and Ben, an actual serious question for you: Are you going to be at Chicago Con this year?

Nope, not this year, got a wedding to attend (no, not my own).

It has been a while now, how is the new gig working out for you? More enjoyable or less enjoyable than your last job?

It seems that you get to work some of the same writing and interview skills in some aspects, but then get to be more inventive on other bits.

Is our boy Nova well on his way to breaking his Bronze Age record of 25 published issues?

Speculation is running around the net that JMS is not long for Thor, with all of the new announced projects beyond Marvel. Any semi-offical word on JMS staying around on Thor beyond #12? He is knocking the series out of the park, I'd hate to see him go...

Hey Don, good to hear from ya, dude.

1. It's hard to quantify whether my current job is more or less enjoyable than my last simply because I'm in a different place in my life now than I was then. The last job was perfect for me when I was just getting out of college, this one is ideal for where my head is at now. I do dig the increased imput and control I have over content, which is a new adventure for me.

2. If Nova doesn't break his current record with this book, I will publicly admit that Wendell Vaughn was cool...and that's not an easy thing for me to do.

3. I have heard nothing about JMS leaving Thor, DC projects or not.

zekeman1

Because it's a fine zone. Everything is awesome there!

So glad to have this thread back.

[Eric Q]

I know the Super Skrull is going to appear in Nova, She-Hulk, and probably some other stuff. But are there any plans for him beyond that? Maybe the Guardians of the Galaxy have an opening.

Thanks again.

[Lundonj]

Ben, do you get to vote for the Marvel cover of the year?

It was a tough choice, but I love how that is set up, where I can review so many covers to nominate (Nova #1, Nova #4, Thor #2 (Del Otto variant), were among my top choices).

Ben..

I know that Red Hulk is obviously going to be established as not only someone different but a different power source given his eye color and even what he bleeds isn't green or red but something else entirely.

What my question is in particular is.....green hulk has displayed strength that goes beyond measure,smashing an asteroid bigger than the earth...holding a planet together with his bare hands.

You can only go so far with strength level,will Red Hulk have any other powers to make him unique and different than previous Hulk incarnations?
