Have we seen Kate Bishop in a team book yet? Other than A-force?

Don't think so. But I'm way behind in Marvel reading.

<Snipped quote by Ruby>

To be honest so am I, I dropped off around the start of Secret Wars, I don't even know if it's still going on.

I think I stopped a few months after the Marvel Now relaunch. It had some good stuff, but I'm kind of tired of keeping track of stuff only for it to relaunch just a few months later.

The endless Earth-shattering events that change "everything" and mean a sixth renumbering in as many months has led me to all but drop titles from the Big Two and stick to independent, creator-owned comics instead. I have no problem buying into a series if I know its a limited series going in and is destined to end, but the non-stop reboots at Marvel and DC are disheartening to say the least.

Between Southern Bastards and We Stand on Guard, who could disagree? They're killing it at the moment.

The Manhattan Projects is also dope. I haven't picked it back up since it started its second phase, but it is amazing. A friend of mine also shows up in an issue with a cameo.

Does this game still have room? I didn't have time to check the forum in the last two days and you guys look like you're all set :(

Name: Jeanne Marie Beaubier
Superhero identity: Aurora
Age: 25
Brief History: Jeanne Marie was born a twin, to two loving parents who unfortunately died when she was very young. Her brother was taken in by cousins of their father, but she was sent to a catholic boarding school essentially. She was shy and bullied mercilessly. When she was 13, her powers came in, but being so religious she couldn't accept it. Coupled with the torture one of the nuns put her through when they found out about her powers, Jeanne Marie developed multiple personality disorder. The first being Jeanne Marie, who desperately hates her mutation and mutants in general, the second being Aurora who is carefree, enjoys life and all it's vices pretty much. She also has a third personality than only comes out when she's in extreme danger and likes to see blood just a bit too much.

After Aurora reunited with her brother, she found herself part of Alpha Flight, helping with some missions but mostly on the sidelines for the moment.

Name:

Hercules

Superhero identity:

N/A

Age:

Over three thousand years old

Brief History:

Thousands of years ago Athena, Goddess of Wisdom, forsaw the need for a champion powerful enough to protect the God's of Olympus and mankind from future threats. She arranged for her father, Zeus, Master of Olympus, and Alcemena, a mortal woman, to sire that champion. And so Hercules, Prince of Power, was born.

For millennia he has used his great strength, endless courage, and boundless enthusiasm to face those beings that would threaten the weak and innocent, first as the greatest hero of Ancient Greece, and more recently as an Avenger. No matter the challenge, Hercules is it's equal.

Notes

This is the regular 616 Herc, though one that still has his Godly powers.

Name: Matt Murdock
Superhero identity: Daredevil
Age: 30

Brief History: Ever since he was born Matt was faced with adversity, his mother abandoned him for the church and he was raised exclusively by his father, famed boxer 'Battlin Jack' Murdock. Growing up in Hell's Kitchen Matt was surrounded by crime and fear, he constantly witnessed the consequences of injustice and a corrupt system. Matt's life took a dramatic turn when he pushed an old man out of the way of a truck carrying an experimental isotope, although the old man was saved Matt was blinded by the isotope. With one of his senses gone, his other senses compensated, however with the exposure to the radiation they compensated to such a degree that they reached superhuman levels.

While in hospital Matt was visited by a man named Stick who trained him to use his enhanced senses to become a powerful fighter. When Matt was old enough to attend college he went to Columbia university where he studied law desperate to bring justice to the place he had grown up in, his father fixing fights for the mafia in order to pay for his tuition. Eventually 'Battlin Jack' was asked to throw the fight of his career for a huge payoff, stubborn to a fault he refused to do so and the mafia, not appreciating his attitude decided it was time 'Battlin Jack' became one for the history books and gunned him down.

Matt, overwhelmed with anger at his father's death chased down the mob donning a homemade costume and the moniker "Daredevil", after bludgeoning the men who were responsible he became a costumed vigilante protecting hell's kitchen.

Nowadays Matt has graduated from Columbia and works at his law firm Nelson and Murdock, his career as Daredevil continues despite the tabloids constant attempts to out Murdock as the masked hero. Still fighting on the streets of New York, Matt is completely unaware of how bizarre he will find the next few months.
