Avengers Assemble comic

[valtyr]

An upcoming Avengers comic, Avengers Assemble #1 - and interview with the artist, Mark Bagley.

I found this comment on Cap to be interesting:

"I try and depict him as the de facto leader that all the other Avengers naturally, maybe even subconsciously, defer to," he admits. "[Tony] Stark has a man crush on him. Thor just flat out respects him. Hawkeye would be jealous of him if he didn’t like and admire him so much. And [Black Widow] is smart enough to know Cap is the man—in a good way."

Bolding mine.

:D

It's always nice to have confirmation that at least some of what we are seeing was intentional, although it's hard to argue Tony's man crush has every been subtle.

And just when I thought I couldn't love this fandom more, it just... Keeps on giving.

First the new trailer and now confirmation of Tony's man crush. Damn, I hope I live long enough to see May 4!

[chariflame.livejournal.com]

Haha oh man I remember the days when they at least tried to be subtle with this stuff.

Oh my gosh, Mark. Yes. Thank you for making my incredibly shitty evening stuck at the office just a bit better.

I am excited for this, I really am. I haven't really liked the Avengers ongoing lately but maybe having a fresh slate and no plot lines to continue will make me remember why at one point I really like Bendis's writing. And I love it when people talk about how everyone basically loves Steve <3

I find Marvel writers are very generous with giving us material.

lol half a comment.

Should have read: I find Marvel writers are very generous with giving us material. And I think it's because THEY SHIP IT TOOOOO.

CLEARLY.

I'll just pretend that this doesn't make me ridiculously pleased.

this is everything I desire

[mf_luder_xf]

Psssht. Black Widow lets Cap be the man because she knows no one else could handle her awesomeness if it was unleashed as leader.

But beyond that, yay man!crush!!

One day.
We're gonna wake up and they writers will make Tony & Steve have a real morning after strip... with cutsey breakfast scene and a fight over a bagel. Also little kisses too.


SOON

First the Steve/Natasha Stark AU Civil War thing, the Bendis joking about them kissing and making up and then having Spidey give that whole explanation of Tony and Steve being the Avengers daddy and mommy....

Now this, lol yeah they are pretty much telling us these two are a couple.

[kaitou-taco.livejournal.com]

It is my personal headcanon that Bendis ships them. :D
but as you said on tumblargh, Tony's mancrush has always been there
it's Captain-fucking-America!

[hana-ginkawa.livejournal.com]

Finally admitting what the world has known to be true. :D

[liarashadowsong.livejournal.com]

Well, at least they're admitting they ship this pairing, too. (Because subtle? Was never an option.)
