Hosted by Brian Schott
10:00:32 PM - camax - Greetings Allan
10:00:32 PM - Jazz - Good evening Allan!
10:00:36 PM - manley_childe - Back for more fun grey
10:00:37 PM - KeitaroE37 - Welcome Allan
10:00:44 PM - Allan Heinberg - Hello, everybody!
10:00:47 PM - Cemberfrost - Hi, Allan
10:00:53 PM - grey-cain - Hey, Allan
10:00:55 PM - Hazzard - I couldn't get 12,000 for my soul!:-)
10:01:00 PM - Dysc - Hey
10:01:02 PM - Mo (rhyo) - Hi, Allan
10:01:04 PM - Ryoken - Welcome , Alan
10:01:13 PM - Allan Heinberg - Thanks!
10:01:16 PM - Jazz - Allan, it is great that you wanted to join us, thank you.
10:01:17 PM - Hazzard - Hey Allan!
10:01:20 PM - Allan Heinberg - Be gentle. I've never done this before.
10:01:25 PM - Michael Heide - Jessica: Speaking of which, Cap asked me to give you these. They belonged to Clint Barton. So did the code-name Cap picked out for you. Look, even without the bow and arrows... the only Avenger who ever stood up to Captain America the way you did... was Hawkeye.
10:01:33 PM - grey-cain - we'll do our best, Allan
10:01:35 PM - camax - Hey, me neither Allan :D
10:01:39 PM - Mo (rhyo) - lol, see, we started without you...
10:01:39 PM - Michael Heide - Hello, Allan.
10:01:43 PM - MJMcB - me neither
10:01:46 PM - Ryoken - Ill try to be gentle, its mi first time too
10:01:51 PM - Tim B ishop - What happens in the chat room...
10:01:59 PM - KeitaroE37 - I haven't done this since Marvel had their own Marvel site for AOL:p
10:02:07 PM - Jazz - We have a couple of set questions for you Allan that will keep things structured and then we will open it up to the floor.
10:02:17 PM - Allan Heinberg - Okay. Fire away.
10:02:29 PM - Jazz - Thank you, Allan.
10:02:35 PM - KeitaroE37 - Welcome Bay bear
10:02:37 PM - Michael Heide - wb, Baybear.
10:02:44 PM - Jazz - 1) At some point will you address the dangling thread of the Vision's mysterious failsafe program?
10:02:54 PM - BayBearUK - Hi there :-)
10:03:05 PM - grey-cain - hey bay bear
10:03:07 PM - Allan Heinberg - In terms of there being other YA candidates in his programming?
10:03:09 PM - Allan Heinberg - Yes.
10:04:07 PM - manley_childe - Hey reaper!
10:04:13 PM - Jazz - 2) Any chance of Master Pandemonium appearing as a villain for the YA?
10:04:20 PM - grey-cain - yo, reaper
10:04:25 PM - GlennWalker - :)
10:04:38 PM - Allan Heinberg - I would have to say I'd be more likely to use Mephisto. But you never know...
10:04:39 PM - reaperradio - evening everyone
10:04:55 PM - Michael Heide - Hi reaper, hi Ian.
10:05:07 PM - Ian - Hi
10:05:14 PM - grey-cain - hey, Ian
10:05:25 PM - reaperradio - evening Michael
10:05:32 PM - Jazz - 3) Do you think it is time for all monthlies to go the volume changing route like Young Avengers and Ultimates?
10:05:47 PM - Michael Heide - ...and Runaways.
10:06:04 PM - Allan Heinberg - No. Not at all. I think it has to do with the storytelling structure.
10:06:07 PM - camax - and She-Hulk :P
10:06:17 PM - Michael Heide - yeah, right.
10:06:20 PM - manley_childe - What about a Young Masters of Evil?
10:06:23 PM - Allan Heinberg - If you look at YA 1-12, plus the Special, it's all one story.
10:06:28 PM - Michael Heide - Great idea.
10:06:28 PM - KeitaroE37 - Speaking of She-Hulk, where is issue 9; LoL
10:06:44 PM - Allan Heinberg - And we are doing a Young Masters of Evil story.
10:06:52 PM - Ryoken - YES!
10:06:56 PM - grey-cain - now, that's just plain cool, man.
10:06:56 PM - Michael Heide - Awesome.
10:06:59 PM - KeitaroE37 - Whoa
10:06:59 PM - camax - Young Master of Evil - BRILLIANT
10:07:00 PM - grey-cain - :)
10:07:03 PM - Jazz - Wow!
10:07:03 PM - Dysc - Wow!
10:07:09 PM - MJMcB - can touch on the young masters
10:07:09 PM - Dysc - hahahaha nice Jazz lol
10:07:11 PM - Allan Heinberg - I'll structure Volume 2 to be essentially one overall arc, as well.
10:07:20 PM - Michael Heide - Will the Young Masters of Evil have ties to the Original Masters of Evil?
10:07:22 PM - Allan Heinberg - I can't help it. It's the TV writer in me.
10:07:26 PM - Ryoken - Swicthedm Bkue is your color now, Alan
10:07:28 PM - grey-cain - why change something that works so well, right?
10:07:29 PM - Mo (rhyo) - ooo, looking forward to a Young MoE!
10:07:32 PM - Ryoken - typos.....
10:07:34 PM - Stephanie - that's ok
10:07:36 PM - Tim B ishop - Was Speed in some kind of Super-Juvie Jail?
10:07:42 PM - camax - Volume 2 expected to be about the same length as Volume 1?
10:07:48 PM - Allan Heinberg - Yes. In the same way the YA have ties to the Avengers.
10:08:06 PM - Allan Heinberg - Speed was a captive of the government.
10:08:07 PM - Ryoken - Wow...that actually makes sense
10:08:19 PM - Allan Heinberg - And Volume 2 is twelve issues long, as well.
10:08:20 PM - Ryoken - I mean, in a real world way....
10:08:21 PM - Michael Heide - I guess you have it planned out already, but it seems forced a bit. Anyway, looking forward to it.
10:08:39 PM - manley_childe - Could some of them switch sides as Hawkeye did?
10:08:46 PM - Stephanie - me too, I can't wait for volume 2
10:08:56 PM - Jazz - 4) Is Season 2 still on track for (roughly) February 2007?
10:08:59 PM - Allan Heinberg - Well, since I can't stay on a book indfefinitely at this point, it's best if I plan my stories that way.
10:09:25 PM - Allan Heinberg - We'd love it to be Feb 2007, but I won't know for sure until my pilot is finished in November.
10:09:28 PM - Ryoken - I have to ask this: Will the Thor legacy be picked up by a a new YA? (Ps: I think Valkyrie died in Raganrok)
10:09:45 PM - camax - I can't imagine Young Avengers being anywhere near the same without Allan & Jim :(
10:09:54 PM - Jazz - Please hold off on the off topic questions
10:09:55 PM - Allan Heinberg - I think until Marvel puts Thor back on the table, we're going to shy away from his legacy for now.
10:10:04 PM - Allan Heinberg - Thanks, Camax.
10:10:12 PM - Jazz - We will open it up to the floor after a few more basics are covered.
10:10:13 PM - Ryoken - Ah, that makes me a bit sad, but its quite reasonable
10:10:16 PM - manley_childe - Marvel is earning interest on my subscription in the mean time. LOL.
10:10:24 PM - KeitaroE37 - Is there any chance of getting a scripter or someone to help you with your load?
10:10:25 PM - MJMcB - Isn't Thor basically on the table again after the last FF
10:10:25 PM - Allan Heinberg - Exactly.
10:10:44 PM - Ryoken - I support Camax, Heinberg and Cheung are the sould of the book and the reason for its quality
10:10:47 PM - Allan Heinberg - I didn't read it. Is he back?
10:10:58 PM - Allan Heinberg - Thanks, Ryoken.
10:11:01 PM - Cemberfrost - Not yet
10:11:08 PM - GlennWalker - The hammer is back
10:11:10 PM - Ryoken - I can take this one, if you alla want me too
10:11:13 PM - Michael Heide - Keitaro, I'm sure that would lead to a bit of bad blood with the readers. Remember the Deodato studios debacle?
10:11:14 PM - Jazz - Were you surprised at how fast fan reaction went from this is a bad idea (before the first issue came out) to wow, this is a really good comic?
10:11:16 PM - Allan Heinberg - That's what I thought.
10:11:18 PM - Ryoken - youre welcome
10:11:35 PM - reaperradio - Someone with the initials DB was seen near the hammer in FF #538, I believe
10:11:36 PM - KeitaroE37 - Not offhand Michael
10:11:46 PM - Allan Heinberg - I was hugely relieved. I wasn't surprised at the this is a bad idea reaction, because I thought it was a bad idea originally, too.
10:11:51 PM - Michael Heide - Anyway, let's not derail this.
10:11:57 PM - MJMcB - And picked up the hammer. He's back
10:11:57 PM - KeitaroE37 - I was thinking more of Goyer and Johns on JSA
10:12:12 PM - Ryoken - Yeah, youre right Michael
10:12:42 PM - Allan Heinberg - As for a co-writer, I'm afraid it would simply be too complicated and too much work to bring someone else into my process. Defeating the purpose.
10:12:45 PM - Stephanie - everybody said it was gonna be Marvel's Teen Titans =P
10:12:48 PM - MJMcB - Can you explain why some Young Avengers were part of the resistance in CW#2?
10:12:51 PM - KeitaroE37 - Understandable
10:12:54 PM - camax - The teaser stuff for YA was really nothing like the real thing that knocked us out in issue #1.
10:13:01 PM - Allan Heinberg - Goyer and Johns co-plotted, but Geoff really wrote most of JSA.
10:13:15 PM - Jazz - The Director's Cut has both the first-pass TV style script and the later, comics style script - has writing comics changed anything in your TV scripting style?
10:13:16 PM - KeitaroE37 - I wasn't sure exactly how they worked together
10:13:23 PM - Michael Heide - And let's not forget James Robinson on the early issues.
10:13:24 PM - Allan Heinberg - The YA are hugely loyal to Cap.
10:13:44 PM - Allan Heinberg - I think writing comics has definitely affected my TV writing.
10:13:49 PM - Ryoken - I would, I mean, he's cap!
10:13:52 PM - MJMcB - But not all were present
10:14:00 PM - Allan Heinberg - I'm much more of a visual thinker now.
10:14:16 PM - grey-cain - would you view that as a good thing, Allan?
10:14:33 PM - Allan Heinberg - For me, it is.
10:14:50 PM - Allan Heinberg - I'm a hugely verbal person and writer, so to be able to shut up and let images tell the story is a great tool to have.
10:14:50 PM - Ryoken - can i aska big question?
10:14:55 PM - grey-cain - very cool!
10:14:57 PM - Allan Heinberg - of course.
10:15:23 PM - Michael Heide - Jazz, how many more questions do you have?
10:15:37 PM - Ryoken - How surprised were you to how quicly and positive readers realised Billy and Teddy's relationship?
10:15:51 PM - Allan Heinberg - Shocked. And ecstatic. But mostly shocked.
10:16:03 PM - Allan Heinberg - I honestly still have trouble believing it.
10:16:10 PM - camax - Yeah, the letters page figured it out before me!
10:16:12 PM - Allan Heinberg - It makes me very optimistic about this country.
10:16:28 PM - grey-cain - i found the whole thing refreshing really. it was a good change in the way things went in my opinion.
10:16:30 PM - Ryoken - It was a huge day for fandom, right there....i loved the couple, and the letters were fantasticly handled
10:16:32 PM - Allan Heinberg - And it's very reassuring about comics readers overall.
10:16:38 PM - Michael Heide - Then let me say that Germans like their relationship as well.
10:16:49 PM - GlennWalker - congrats on the GLAAD award btw
10:16:50 PM - Jazz - I'm all set with the sent in questions - I will turn it over to Allan. Thank you!
10:16:50 PM - Allan Heinberg - Thanks, the letters page is really important to us.
10:16:54 PM - Ryoken - And Chileans too!
10:17:01 PM - Dysc - Allan, who's your favourite Young Avenger?
10:17:03 PM - Stephanie - and peruvians xD
10:17:06 PM - MJMcB - I liked how it was a major storyline but just who they were. More profound that way
10:17:08 PM - BayBearUK - and us in the UK :-)
10:17:11 PM - Michael Heide - I've got two questions.
10:17:15 PM - Allan Heinberg - The whole world is a much more loving place than I had previously imagined it.
10:17:18 PM - Stephanie - we're so global
10:17:21 PM - Allan Heinberg - Go, Michael.
10:17:40 PM - Allan Heinberg - My favorite YA member is Kate.
10:17:45 PM - Michael Heide - Okay. The first one: In the YA special, we saw Kang. Was that the teenage Kang (Iron Lad) or the adult one?
10:17:48 PM - GlennWalker - :)
10:17:57 PM - Allan Heinberg - That was teenage Kang.
10:18:01 PM - Allan Heinberg - He'll be back.
10:18:05 PM - Ryoken - wow, good one
10:18:08 PM - Michael Heide - Okay. so will he be important again in season two?
10:18:10 PM - Allan Heinberg - But not as Iron Lad.
10:18:18 PM - Hazzard - Do you have a favorite grown up Avenger?
10:18:18 PM - Jazz - I would just like to say to everyone here - if you would like a free copy of Young Avengers #7 please email me at some point tonight. Thank you for joining us.
10:18:20 PM - grey-cain - hey, Allan, when it came down to setting up the series, did you create the characters?
10:18:23 PM - Ryoken - holy.....well, im oficially sold on season 2 now
10:18:25 PM - Allan Heinberg - Very important. Especially to Cassie.
10:18:38 PM - Allan Heinberg - I created all the characters except Cassie.
10:18:41 PM - Antlad923 - Any chances of any MC2 related characters?
10:18:52 PM - Michael Heide - My other question is: In season one, one of the main appeals was trying to figure out how the characters were connected to the classic Avengers.
10:18:54 PM - Allan Heinberg - No MC2 characters, I'm afraid. No room.
10:19:14 PM - Michael Heide - So will you introduce more characters in season two? If so, how do you prevent the book from becoming too cluttered?
10:19:23 PM - Allan Heinberg - So, we'll have to figure out some other way to hold your interest in Vol. 2, Michael.
10:19:35 PM - Cemberfrost - Young Avengers Disassembled...
10:19:37 PM - Michael Heide - Or do you plan to go the Vaughan way and kill off members every year-and-a-half?
10:19:42 PM - Allan Heinberg - I have no current plans to introduce new heroes.
10:19:48 PM - BayBearUK - Allan it's 3.30 am in the UK - have to hit the sack - just wanted to say how much I love the book - any chance of an Ant Lad sidekick for cassie :-)
10:19:49 PM - Allan Heinberg - Lots of new antagonists, though.
10:19:50 PM - Mo (rhyo) - What size cast would you prefer to work with in YA?
10:19:51 PM - Allan Heinberg - And guest starts.
10:19:57 PM - Allan Heinberg - stars, rather.
10:19:59 PM - KeitaroE37 - I have a question: Will Season Two be basically two arcs like Season one, or more broken up into smaller storylines?
10:20:05 PM - Dysc - I love Runaways but I really can't deal with losing cast members every year lol
10:20:05 PM - Allan Heinberg - I like the size of the cast now.
10:20:09 PM - Michael Heide - Okay. I guess this ties in with the Young Masters of Evil already mentioned.
10:20:11 PM - Antlad923 - any plans for Hulkling and that superskrull-in-training guy from runaways to meet?
10:20:28 PM - Allan Heinberg - Thanks, BayBear. No sidekicks at this point, I'm afraid.
10:20:32 PM - camax - I loved the feeling when I realized Wiccan was the Scarlet Witch and Speed was Quicksilver a few issues ago!
10:20:41 PM - Allan Heinberg - They meet in the YA/RUNAWAYS CIVIL WAR book.
10:20:49 PM - Allan Heinberg - Thanks, Camax!
10:20:51 PM - Ryoken - Young Masters of evil....whomever leads those guys has a though act to follow
10:20:53 PM - BayBearUK - no worries - have a great night guys
10:21:04 PM - Michael Heide - Bye, BayBear.
10:21:11 PM - KeitaroE37 - nite baybeark
10:21:14 PM - Ryoken - bye baybear
10:21:14 PM - Dysc - Tommy went from a character I wasn't really interested in to my new favourite at at least 300mph lol
10:21:14 PM - reaperradio - Night BayBear
10:21:15 PM - Michael Heide - That was hard to type.
10:21:17 PM - Allan Heinberg - Season Two is three arcs of four issues right now.
10:21:23 PM - Hazzard - s'long Baybear
10:21:28 PM - Antlad923 - Allan I have to say your young avengers are inspiring I introduced it to tons of my non-comic pals and they loved it
10:21:32 PM - Tim B ishop - <span style='color: olive'>Hearing the questions relating to Civil War, Runaways, New Avengers: how much time in your busy schedule goes to coordinating with Bendis, Millar, Vaughn, and those guys?
10:21:37 PM - Allan Heinberg - Thanks, Antlad!
10:21:50 PM - manley_childe - Question about #12 -- Wouldn't the other Skrulls recognize the Super Skrull?
10:22:01 PM - brandolp - Regarding working with artist, do you come up with a cool image, then tie it into the script... or do you plot out the story and ask Jim to go wild with it?
10:22:06 PM - Allan Heinberg - I don't get to talk with those guys all that much. Every few months we check in. Though I see BKV socially a lot now.
10:22:12 PM - camax - So no plans for Young versions of other adult Avengers then? (Not like we don't have enough to play with, but it is exciting to know about Vision's protocols)
10:22:16 PM - MJMcB - will we get a Young Ultron or Young Grim Reaper?
10:22:36 PM - Allan Heinberg - I talk through the story with Jim, then write fairly detailed scripts. And then I ask Jim to feel free to come up with better ideas.
10:22:40 PM - Michael Heide - There already is a young Ultron over at Runaways.
10:22:52 PM - grey-cain - how much avengers history did you go through in researching for this project?
10:22:56 PM - Allan Heinberg - I wouldn't want to step on Victor Mancha's toes with a Young Ultron.
10:22:56 PM - Antlad923 - Victor Mancha
10:23:03 PM - Allan Heinberg - But maybe a young reaper.
10:23:05 PM - Ryoken - I would like a Young Zemo...always liked the idea od some sort of anti-cap, fighthing for the wrong reasons
10:23:17 PM - Mo (rhyo) - The panelling decisions in #12 were great - big panel on the left, small character inserts on the right - was that Jim's choice?
10:23:25 PM - Allan Heinberg - I re-read pretty much the entire run of Avengers (and West Coast) to prepare for YA.
10:23:29 PM - Michael Heide - If we're talking suggestions here, I wouldn't mind a Young Loki of some sort.
10:23:32 PM - reaperradio - Interesting idea, a young Zemo.
10:23:35 PM - grey-cain - wow!
10:23:42 PM - Allan Heinberg - The double-page splashes were Jim's idea.
10:23:44 PM - MJMcB - Will the Avengers be very involved with the Young Avengers in Season 2?
10:23:46 PM - Jazz - So Jim will be back for YA Season II, correct?
10:23:55 PM - Allan Heinberg - And the Avengers Assemple double-splash was Geoff Johns' idea.
10:24:12 PM - Allan Heinberg - Young Zemo sounds cool.
10:24:12 PM - Antlad923 - geoff is good at double splashes
10:24:17 PM - grey-cain - did you gain any favorite stories from all of your re-reading? and if so, which ones?
10:24:20 PM - Allan Heinberg - Young Loki's cool, too.l
10:24:33 PM - Ryoken - I loved that splash, having Teddy yell along with Cap...two generations of Captains together
10:24:34 PM - KeitaroE37 - In the Kree/Skrull arc, the Super Skrull mentions that he was made to believe he was a mutant, was he made to believe anything esle that we don't know yet?
10:24:39 PM - Mo (rhyo) - In the Avengers back-issues, was there a team dynamic or tone that really struck you?
10:24:51 PM - Allan Heinberg - We'll probably see a little less of the Avengers in Season Two, but I love those characters, so who knows?
10:25:03 PM - Antlad923 - Thunderstrikes son would be a great young loki
10:25:08 PM - Stephanie - will we have any guest appearance at vol2?
10:25:13 PM - Allan Heinberg - Favorite Avengers stories? So many.
10:25:25 PM - brandolp - Jim's pacing, issue 12, reminded me of his work on Scion. Please give him more people with Swords~~!
10:26:07 PM - KeitaroE37 - The art for issue 12 was amazing, his best Marvel work by far
10:26:12 PM - Allan Heinberg - We'll be unpacking more of Teddy's past in Vol. 2 when he moves in with Billy's family.
10:26:19 PM - Michael Heide - ...yet
10:26:25 PM - Tim B ishop - <span style='color: olive'>I second that, Kei.
10:26:26 PM - Stephanie - cool!
10:26:32 PM - Allan Heinberg - Lots of Marvel U guest stars in Season Two. That's half the fun.
10:26:33 PM - Ryoken - Nice plotlines there....
10:26:33 PM - grey-cain - now that should be interesting
10:26:41 PM - grey-cain - sweet!:D
10:26:44 PM - Michael Heide - He moves in with Billy? That
10:26:47 PM - Michael Heide - 's cool.
10:26:49 PM - Antlad923 - will there be an Eli kate Tommy love triangle?
10:27:07 PM - camax - Who's idea was it for Kate to be Hawkeye? How easy was that to get by Quesada, Bendis, etc?
10:27:14 PM - Stephanie - and where is Tommy living?
10:27:19 PM - Allan Heinberg - Two love triangles: Eli/Kate/Tommy. And Kang/Cassie/Vision.
10:27:28 PM - Michael Heide - And what will you do once the real Hawkeye returns?
10:27:33 PM - brandolp - wow~~~!
10:27:35 PM - GlennWalker - Intriguing :)
10:27:37 PM - manley_childe - Will it be anything like the film Beautiful Thing?
10:27:39 PM - Tim B ishop - <span style='color: olive'>Kang/Cassie/Vision? Sounds like Lois/Clark/Superman.
10:27:40 PM - Ryoken - like the sound of that last one
10:27:42 PM - Allan Heinberg - Tommy's going to be a little mysterious about his living situation for a while.
10:27:44 PM - KeitaroE37 - Will we see Billy's two other brothers in Season Two?
10:27:49 PM - Cemberfrost - I'm still confused about Billy and Tommy. If they really are Wanda's children, did they come into being post-Avengers Disassembled? If so, how does Billy have parents already? Is he adopted?
10:27:51 PM - grey-cain - are there any plans for Clint Barton to appear?
10:28:03 PM - Allan Heinberg - I'm just as curious about Clint's return as everybody else.
10:28:08 PM - Allan Heinberg - Nobody's telling me anything.
10:28:21 PM - GlennWalker - :-)
10:28:23 PM - Michael Heide - Bendis keeps hinting at a return in late 2006.
10:28:24 PM - Allan Heinberg - We will see Billy's brothers in Season Two.
10:28:30 PM - grey-cain - i hear you, i haven't seen much and i've been wondering for months about that too.
10:28:34 PM - camax - I would think they would save Hawkeye for him, and have a junior version of the name for Kate?
10:28:43 PM - Antlad923 - will Hank pym intervine with Cassie at some point?
10:28:47 PM - grey-cain - Hey, Allan. Do you follow New Avengers? If so, what do you think of it?
10:28:56 PM - Allan Heinberg - And according to Billy's theory, the souls of Wanda's twins inhabited the his and Tommy's bodies when they were dispersed from Mephisto.
10:29:01 PM - Allan Heinberg - But it's only a theory.
10:29:11 PM - Michael Heide - DC has two Green Arrows and various Green Lanterns. But it could become confusing.
10:29:13 PM - Allan Heinberg - I do follow New Avengers.
10:29:18 PM - Mo (rhyo) => Jazz] ooooo, nice obfuscation on Allan's part, there....
10:29:23 PM - GlennWalker - only a theory he says slyly ;-)
10:29:24 PM - Ryoken - Ok, a longshot here...since Billy and Tommy are tied into Mephisto, any chance of Blackheart appearing at some point? (like him as a villian)
10:29:41 PM - Allan Heinberg - As a Bendis fan, I love watching the way Brian's telling stories in that book.
10:29:54 PM - grey-cain - you're a bendis fan?! man, that is too cool!
10:29:59 PM - Allan Heinberg - I hadn't thought of using Blackheart, but that's a swell idea.
10:30:09 PM - Ryoken - yay!
10:30:18 PM - grey-cain - just to let you know, Allan. you rock hardcore!
10:30:18 PM - Allan Heinberg - I'd love to do a scene with Hank and Cassie.
10:30:20 PM - Antlad923 - Allan I have to ask as someone who wants to write how'd you deal with all the negative letters?
10:30:30 PM - Ryoken - Last thing i heard, he was trapped under the Hellfire club, wasnt he?
10:30:30 PM - Antlad923 - about ted and Billy especially
10:30:31 PM - camax - I compare all my comic reading to New & Young Avengers each month. So far, nothing excites me near like those two titles do.
10:30:38 PM - Dysc - Who'd send Allan negative letters? lol
10:30:39 PM - brandolp - I would like to see some mention of Jack of Hearts and/or the female Captian Britian... Maybe Cassie had some connection to either of them?
10:30:50 PM - KeitaroE37 - Do you know if in Civil War: YA/Runaways if it deals with Blake's disapproval of superheroes?
10:31:10 PM - Allan Heinberg - I try not to take negative letters and reviews personally. And to search the writer's argument for merit. If it's a justified criticism, I usually try to do something to address it.
10:31:16 PM - Ryoken - I like Lionheart (female cap britain) had a lot of potential
10:31:23 PM - Allan Heinberg - I don't think Blake appears in YA/RUNAWAYS, no.
10:31:24 PM - KeitaroE37 - I liked her alot too
10:31:34 PM - GlennWalker - any writer needs thick skin...
10:31:47 PM - Antlad923 - any plans for her children in the future I remember they hung out with Cass at the mansion
10:31:50 PM - Michael Heide - Who is Blake? Are you talking about Donald Blake?
10:31:59 PM - Antlad923 - no cass' step dad
10:32:04 PM - reaperradio - I agree with you on that, Glenn, I write a bit myself
10:32:06 PM - Michael Heide - Ah. Right.
10:32:09 PM - camax - I think of them as standing on their own two feet, but do you see a time down the road when a Young Avenger would join the main team?
10:32:41 PM - Allan Heinberg - The YA will remain the YA while I'm on the book. Unless Brian really, really wants the Vision back or something.
10:32:41 PM - Antlad923 - a west coast group of YA would be cool
10:33:01 PM - Allan Heinberg - Whose kids hung out with Cass at the Mansion?
10:33:07 PM - Ryoken - hell better bring Clint back before even asking that
10:33:09 PM - Michael Heide - I doubt it, since he destroyed the Vision in the first place.
10:33:10 PM - Mo (rhyo) - Particularly love the dialog in YA - I wasn't surprised to see His Girl Friday on your desert island list - I can see Kate Bishop, talking out of the side of her mouth, just like Rosalind Russell
10:33:12 PM - Antlad923 - Lionhearts
10:33:22 PM - GlennWalker - Cap Britain/Lionheart's kids...
10:33:23 PM - camax - It seems like the Vision's plan was in case the entire team needed replacement, not grow them into Avengers one by one. I like them as their own team !
10:33:42 PM - Antlad923 - well for one issue I recall
10:33:45 PM - Allan Heinberg - Ah. No. No plans for Cap UK's kids. We have so many of our own already!
10:33:46 PM - Antlad923 - that whole New invaders thing
10:33:50 PM - Ryoken - Lionheart appears in new excalibur....
10:34:01 PM - KeitaroE37 - Do the YA still have Kang's belt, allowing to time travel like they sent Ironlad?
10:34:01 PM - Hazzard - You could just write Hawkeye back in...we wouldn't tell anyone!;-)
10:34:17 PM - Tim B ishop - <span style='color: olive'>Did they just House of M the idea that Lionheart's kids aren't supposed to know she's Captain Britain?
10:34:21 PM - grey-cain - with the ending of the first season, any ideas as to what kind of relationship the YA will have with the NA?
10:34:46 PM - Dysc - Have Clint Barton walking through the background of a scene with a fake mustache and his costume on :D
10:34:52 PM - Ryoken - Hey, Young Masters of evil means teenage/young villians? that sounds like quite a challenge, in my opinion.
10:35:00 PM - Allan Heinberg - The Vision's armor is just full of 30th century surprises.
10:35:07 PM - camax - Can you tease us with a LITTLE insight as to how Volume 2 kicks off? Maybe like how the first page or so starts?
10:35:08 PM - Antlad923 - was it a plan through out New and Young avengers to make Ironman a negative/bad cop type character cause if you guys didn't read Mr. Parker goes to washington he's lost it
10:35:19 PM - Allan Heinberg - I think Cap got Kate's message in YA #12.
10:35:21 PM - manley_childe - How much impact will Civil War have on YA?
10:35:30 PM - Ryoken - hey, careful about iron Man
10:35:31 PM - Allan Heinberg - And after Civil War shakes out, the two teams will be on good terms.
10:35:34 PM - Jazz - Young Avengers attracts the newer readers and Avengers old timers - how did you find that perfect balance?
10:35:41 PM - Antlad923 - I know I love ironman as much as everyone
10:35:42 PM - grey-cain - YAY!:D
10:36:00 PM - Michael Heide - I'd say New Avengers speaks to new readers as well.
10:36:07 PM - GlennWalker - Hey David :)
10:36:07 PM - grey-cain - hey, astonish
10:36:08 PM - Allan Heinberg - I constantly strive for that perfect balance, but you never know how you're doing till it's out in the world.
10:36:10 PM - Hazzard - Hey Astonish.
10:36:11 PM - Ryoken - I just mean he has a valid poit of view others shre...im with cap, though
10:36:15 PM - MJMcB - How does Civil War shake out? hmmm.
10:36:21 PM - Ryoken - Hey astonish
10:36:32 PM - Michael Heide - In fact, I'd say that Young Avengers appeals a bit more to the fans of the classic Avengers.
10:36:36 PM - grey-cain - Hey, Allan, what's your take on Civil War?
10:36:36 PM - Astonish - Hey, guys..
10:36:51 PM - Allan Heinberg - I'm sure Civil War will affect YA Season Two, but I'm crafting the story so that you don't have to have read CW to appreciate it.
10:37:05 PM - reaperradio - Evening Astonish
10:37:12 PM - Allan Heinberg - I think MCW is a terrific boon for Marvel.
10:37:22 PM - Ryoken - Thats a nice thing to do, Allan
10:37:24 PM - Allan Heinberg - Readers can't seem to get enough of it.
10:37:28 PM - Antlad923 - I did enjoy reading YA with out the constant reminder of House of M
10:37:31 PM - Antlad923 - I loved it
10:37:41 PM - Antlad923 - but Wanda bashing went on long enough
10:37:42 PM - Hazzard - Allan- Who is your guess for who the fake Daredevil is, because I have a 12,000 dollar bet with Rhyo!
10:37:46 PM - Ryoken - I love it too
10:37:48 PM - Allan Heinberg - Yeah, most people didn't get that YA Vol 1 takes place between Disassembled and House of M.
10:37:56 PM - MJMcB - off topic, whats your pilot?
10:38:09 PM - grey-cain - a quick question: I'm also a writer and artist and I've just been wondering, how did you get into writing comics, specifically how'd you get tapped to write Young Avengers?
10:38:11 PM - Allan Heinberg - I heard a rumor that Daredevil is Clint, but I'm not reading the book, so I have no idea.
10:38:13 PM - Ryoken - speaking of bets, Allan....your WW debut issue made me lost one.
10:38:24 PM - Ryoken - but its all good
10:38:28 PM - Antlad923 - I liked Billy defending wanda personally if u are magneto's daughter and you lost ur kids you can't be well for to long
10:38:33 PM - Allan Heinberg - My pilot is an autobiographical comic drama about life in a red state.
10:38:36 PM - Tim B ishop - <span style='color: olive'>We haven't seen much about the New Daredevil in the main book. Mostly Matt in prison.
10:38:42 PM - KeitaroE37 - I was wondering if we could go into your other projects or not; seriously I have been watching most of your stuff and not been knowing it for quite some time
10:38:43 PM - camax - ooh yeah, can't wait for my WW#1 to get here tomorrow!
10:39:02 PM - Mo (rhyo) - Are you still writing on Grey's Anatomy?
10:39:03 PM - Stephanie - I think if you're related to Magneto you just have t go crazy
10:39:05 PM - Ryoken - Youl love it, Camax..i did.
10:39:06 PM - Allan Heinberg - Grey-Cain, that question would take too long to answer, but if you Google me, there's an old Newsarama article that tells the tale.
10:39:13 PM - Michael Heide - Foggy met the New Daredevil once and Ben Urich is wondering who he is, but that's about it.
10:39:15 PM - grey-cain - ok, thanks
10:39:23 PM - Allan Heinberg - I'm at the GREY'S offices right now.
10:39:25 PM - Jazz - Can we please hold off on asking Allan for writing tips or breaking into the busniess. Thank you.
10:39:27 PM - Allan Heinberg - Working hard on Episode 304.
10:39:41 PM - Ryoken - i support that motion, Jazz
10:39:52 PM - Antlad923 - Allan will their be any chance of Kang bringing the kids to their future
10:39:59 PM - reaperradio - Wonder Woman 1 was an excellent book, I enjoyed it tremendously
10:40:01 PM - Antlad923 - possibly as Earth's mightiest?
10:40:01 PM - KeitaroE37 - How many episodes are you on schedule to head for Grey's in Season three?
10:40:15 PM - Allan Heinberg - There's always that chance, Ant Lad.
10:40:17 PM - Allan Heinberg - :)
10:40:17 PM - brandolp - Would you consider doing a 52 type book,with the Avengers... you could call it ASSEMBLED
10:40:17 PM - Mo (rhyo) - Lol, I've got the episodes on TiVo. Now I just have to figure out how to get TiVo to spit them out...
10:40:22 PM - Michael Heide - Antlad, wouldn't that disrupt the time stream?
10:40:26 PM - Allan Heinberg - Thanks, Reaper.
10:40:36 PM - camax - The comic world loves you. Cheung and the Dodsons... who the heck gets THAT LUCKY?!
10:40:37 PM - Antlad923 - eh doesn't everything these days?
10:40:47 PM - Allan Heinberg - Right now, we only know the schedule for the first few. I'm up fourth.
10:40:55 PM - Michael Heide - Okay. Point for you.
10:40:57 PM - grey-cain - Yes, I'm very much enjoying Wonder Woman as well.
10:41:06 PM - Allan Heinberg - A weekly book? I can barely handle a bi-monthly!
10:41:07 PM - Tim B ishop - <span style='color: olive'>Jeez, Sex and the City, The O.C., Grey's Anatomy... you'll have my wife reading comics any day now!
10:41:26 PM - KeitaroE37 - Are you going to any comic conventions this summer?
10:41:29 PM - GlennWalker - Ditto on WW, that and YA are the best books of 2006 so far
10:41:29 PM - Allan Heinberg - Thanks, Camax. I am the luckiest boy in Comicsland.
10:41:33 PM - Ryoken - On WW...last page was simply perfect and made me shut up in a very good way
10:41:42 PM - Allan Heinberg - I think I'll be in San Diego.
10:41:47 PM - Antlad923 - Allan you're the king of fanboy's
10:41:48 PM - Mindy - Sorry I arrived in this chat late, but will YA Season 2 be bi-monthly when it starts up again?
10:41:51 PM - Allan Heinberg - I love that last page of WW #1, too.
10:41:55 PM - MJMcB - Were you upset that the Marvel Handbook gave away that Kate was named Hawkeye before your book did?
10:41:56 PM - Allan Heinberg - So much that I bought it.
10:42:12 PM - Ryoken - wow, thats a great investement.....
10:42:16 PM - camax - (thanks for no spoilers Ryo :D )
10:42:17 PM - Allan Heinberg - I was a little sad, but it allowed folks to get their reaction out of the way so they could concentrate on the character moment.
10:42:18 PM - GlennWalker - at least I'm not the -only- white jumpsuit fan out there... ;-)
10:42:31 PM - Allan Heinberg - Love the white suit!
10:42:41 PM - Ryoken - That page alone shows how much continuity matters if handled right
10:42:46 PM - Allan Heinberg - Yes, YA, Vol 2 will be bi-montly.
10:42:53 PM - Michael Heide - Stop spoiling the issue for camax! (...and me....)
10:42:57 PM - Allan Heinberg - YA takes an enormous amount of time to draw.
10:43:08 PM - Ryoken - Im not spoiling!
10:43:36 PM - Antlad923 - Hey allan is there a chance a large If that even with the team so broken that there will be a titans YA battle?
10:43:40 PM - Jazz - Cheung is a god really.
10:43:42 PM - Ryoken - I dont mind waiting for it, Allan....
10:43:45 PM - camax - Jim did monthly on Scion, though I think he took a break every 4-5 issues for a fill-in
10:43:55 PM - brandolp - How about two art teams, so that we can get monthly books?
10:43:58 PM - Michael Heide - There were less characters in Scion.
10:44:09 PM - Jazz - The quality of YA has been top notch right from the start - not one weak or sloppy issue.
10:44:10 PM - Allan Heinberg - No Titans/YA crossover sadly. Maybe years from now when the DC/Marvel rift heals.
10:44:24 PM - camax - let's be honest - Scion was much less intriguing too ;)
10:44:26 PM - Mo (rhyo) - Was it difficult to adjust to the other (very good but very different) artists on the Special?
10:44:32 PM - Jazz - I really is an outstanding production.
10:44:41 PM - Allan Heinberg - The book isn't YA without Jim. Check out YA 7 and 8.
10:44:44 PM - grey-cain - hey, Allan, what would you think about another Marvel vs. DC?
10:44:44 PM - Ryoken - that will take some time, but if JLA/Avenger happened...well, its all possible
10:44:46 PM - Hazzard - I agree with that Jazzy.
10:44:49 PM - Michael Heide - Please no fill-in artists. #7 and 8 really disrupted the book
10:44:54 PM - Tim B ishop - <span style='color: olive'>Just create the Young Squadron Supreme, and there's your Titans.
10:44:56 PM - Allan Heinberg - No, the Special was a joy from start to finish.
10:45:03 PM - Allan Heinberg - And I wrote those pages especially for those artists.
10:45:08 PM - Antlad923 - it's true I missed Jim in 7 and 8
10:45:22 PM - MJMcB - How much did Teen Titans influence you with YA?
10:45:23 PM - Antlad923 - but if we did have a second...George perez...
10:45:23 PM - Mo (rhyo) - I particularly liked Jae Lee and the Scarlet Witch and Wiccan. beautiful pages.
10:45:29 PM - Cemberfrost - Allan, do you ever see yourself making a full-time shift to comics, much like JMS has pretty much done?
10:45:29 PM - Ryoken - I support 7-8, but Cheung is part of YA
10:45:39 PM - Allan Heinberg - I think Marvel vs DC would sell a lot. But the quality would be up to the writers/artists.
10:45:49 PM - brandolp - Squad Supreme were Marvel's verision of the JLA, so a young Squadron would be the Titians.
10:45:52 PM - Allan Heinberg - I tried to stay as far away from TT as possible with YA.
10:46:10 PM - Stephanie - you did a good job
10:46:12 PM - Antlad923 - it shows never see bart allen blow anything up
10:46:17 PM - grey-cain - a young squadron supreme would be cool. especially considering the squadron supreme are basically their world's avengers, so a young squadron isn't that far a stretch really.
10:46:21 PM - Allan Heinberg - I think I love writing TV too much to ever leave for very long. Ideally I'll be able to do both in a timely manner.
10:46:31 PM - Mo (rhyo) - So, do you find yourself reading comics now and paying as much attention to the panelling decisions as the plot/dialog?
10:46:39 PM - MJMcB - Are down for Ultimate Young Avengers?:-)
10:46:49 PM - Michael Heide - But with Squadron Supreme currently taking place in a different universe, a Young Squadron Supreme probably wouldn't work in YA.
10:47:10 PM - Allan Heinberg - Yes, my turning pro now has me reading comics in a much more analytical (and far less patient) way.
10:47:10 PM - camax - Do you have all of Volume 2 pretty much planned out, or just the first few set, and the rest roughed out?
10:47:27 PM - grey-cain - as sad as that is, it's likely true, Michael.
10:47:32 PM - Allan Heinberg - Yes! Let's get Loeb to write them into his ULTIMATES run.
10:47:33 PM - grey-cain - but it's a nice thought though.
10:47:59 PM - Allan Heinberg - I have the overall arcs charted, but not in detail.
10:48:02 PM - Ryoken - Good, who know what Millar would do with theat idea...
10:48:17 PM - Ryoken - and i love millar
10:48:17 PM - grey-cain - if nothing else, it'd be interesting.
10:48:18 PM - Mo (rhyo) - Did you have much trouble finding the voices for the established characters (Cap, IM, Jessica Jones) in YA?
10:48:39 PM - Allan Heinberg - I had trouble with the Sentry. So I sent him to the hospital with Eli. :)
10:48:43 PM - Michael Heide - Let's leave the Young Avengers/Young Squadron Supreme for the fanfic writers.
10:48:48 PM - Mo (rhyo) - Good move....
10:48:49 PM - Cemberfrost - With the addition of Wolverine and Spider-Man to the Avengers, did you ever think to add X-23 or Arana onto the Young Avengers team?
10:48:50 PM - Allan Heinberg - Spider-Woman was tricky, too.
10:48:52 PM - grey-cain - nicely handled
10:48:56 PM - KeitaroE37 - Is there going to be a gap in time between Civil War: YA/Runaways and season two storywise?
10:49:08 PM - grey-cain - you did really good with them, in my opinion.
10:49:09 PM - Allan Heinberg - No X-23 and Arana in YA.
10:49:12 PM - Jazz - I just want to quickly say again that if you are interested in a free copy of Young Avengers #7 please email me later tonight. Thank you.
10:49:18 PM - manley_childe - Some us, however like to keep things in the classic MU.
10:49:30 PM - camax - Ok, so if you have the arc charted, is there anything you want to ask US? Something you want to know beforehand whether readers will like or not? Or do you just call Johns? :D
10:49:33 PM - brandolp - how easy/hard is it to switch from comic writer to t.v. writer? Don't they 'sound' different? The dialouge from a show just won't work in a panel.. or even the other way around. Right?
10:49:38 PM - Captain C - You may have covered this early on in the chat, but are we going to see new members based on early Avengers -- perhaps a young Hercules, Black Panther, or Black Knight?
10:49:38 PM - Allan Heinberg - Between you guys and me, you can read Volume Two as if it picks up right where Volume 1 left off.
10:50:18 PM - Michael Heide - Captain C, no new members. But a Young Masters of Evil.
10:50:26 PM - Ryoken - right as in Zodiac getting their butts kicked?
10:50:34 PM - Allan Heinberg - I don't know how many other Young Avengers we'll have room for in Season Two, but I might introduce them to explore down the road.
10:50:35 PM - GlennWalker - Allan, what Marvel character is there that you haven't written yet that you would like to?
10:50:40 PM - MJMcB - please, the old Black Knight is bad enough
10:51:01 PM - Michael Heide - I actually liked the old Black Knight.
10:51:04 PM - Allan Heinberg - The transition from TV to comics was difficult at first. Going from a moving medium to a static one. And I'm still very much a novice.
10:51:10 PM - Captain C - Masters of Evil...I like it!
10:51:10 PM - Michael Heide - He had such a cool visual.
10:51:17 PM - Hazzard - Me too.
10:51:45 PM - MJMcB - I know I'm in the minority in not liking Dane Whitman
10:51:49 PM - Allan Heinberg - I love Daredevil, but he's in fine hands. I'd love to write Carol Danvers. Wonder Man. Hank and Jan.
10:51:52 PM - manley_childe - Gotta love the Black Knight!
10:51:57 PM - Ryoken - I likd him
10:51:58 PM - Allan Heinberg - More Spider-Man. More Jessica Jones.
10:52:03 PM - Jazz - Hank and Jan!
10:52:05 PM - Jazz - Yes!
10:52:07 PM - Ryoken - Wonder Man!
10:52:07 PM - Astonish - Hank and Jan.. Right on!
10:52:09 PM - brandolp - Allan, you are doing a great job, if you are a novice now I can't wait until you are a 'Pro'
10:52:09 PM - Jazz - Please!
10:52:16 PM - GlennWalker - Cool, Allan. Thank you. :)
10:52:17 PM - Jazz - :-)
10:52:24 PM - Allan Heinberg - They were all supposed to appear in the last arc, but there was no room.
10:52:24 PM - MJMcB - I found the ebony blade to be lame
10:52:26 PM - reaperradio - If you do, please be kind to both Hank & Jan
10:52:32 PM - manley_childe - You could do a lot better with Ms Marvel
10:52:37 PM - grey_cain - sorry, my computer had issues
10:52:38 PM - Allan Heinberg - I love Hank and Jan.
10:52:39 PM - Dysc - A respected Hank would be nice for a change xx(
10:52:51 PM - Ryoken - Yeah, Dysc!
10:52:52 PM - camax - I preordered Ms. Marvel this last solict soley on seeing Carol & Wonder Man!
10:53:06 PM - Astonish - Allan loves Hank and Jan... life is good indeed
10:53:13 PM - Jazz - Cemberfrost (George) please email me later tonight - you are the winner of the Young Avengers Hardcover Volume 1: Sidekicks doorprize!
10:53:17 PM - brandolp - Hank and Jan a.k.a The Thin Man we would all LOVE it~~~!
10:53:18 PM - KeitaroE37 - I personally liked issue 4 of Ms. Marvel, I heard alot of people didn't
10:53:30 PM - Cemberfrost - YAHOOOOOO
10:53:31 PM - Mo (rhyo) - Allan can join our (very small) club, then...
10:53:32 PM - Ryoken - Congrats!
10:53:37 PM - GlennWalker - congrats, Cemberfrost!
10:53:40 PM - Dysc - Grats!
10:53:44 PM - manley_childe - #4 was a lot better.
10:53:49 PM - Captain C - A scene involving Hank and Jan and Cassie is probably overdue...
10:53:50 PM - Michael Heide - congratulations.
10:53:51 PM - camax - Cemberfrost has my jealousy - congratz!
10:53:51 PM - Tim B ishop - Hadn't seen the solicit for Wonder Man in Ms. Marvel! Yippee!
10:53:53 PM - Hazzard - Way to go George!
10:54:02 PM - reaperradio - Congratulations, Cemberfrost
10:54:18 PM - grey_cain - he has my envy as well. congrats, man!
10:54:24 PM - reaperradio - Ms Marvel is a very good book
10:54:28 PM - Mo (rhyo) - Which character in YA caused you the most trouble - isn;t there usually that ONE character that doesn;t want to do what he/she is told?
10:54:48 PM - Allan Heinberg - Hmmm, I wish I'd had more room to spend time with the Vision.
10:55:18 PM - Allan Heinberg - I'm looking forward to giving him more stage in Season Two.
10:55:22 PM - Michael Heide - Can't you do that in season two?
10:55:25 PM - Michael Heide - Okay.
10:55:31 PM - Cemberfrost - What do you think about Vision's recent appearance in New Avengers?
10:55:34 PM - camax - Are you allowed to use Wanda in Volume 2?
10:55:40 PM - Allan Heinberg - Especially if Marvel lets me use Wanda.
10:55:42 PM - Mo (rhyo) - Vision got an interesting scene in She-Hulk, when Jen tried to apolgize for ripping him in half
10:55:45 PM - Allan Heinberg - We're still working that out.
10:55:59 PM - Allan Heinberg - Yeah, I saw that.
10:55:59 PM - grey_cain - which side-characters from season one would you definitely like to use again in season two?
10:56:04 PM - camax - Joe is anti-Wanda right now I bet
10:56:08 PM - Dysc - We can come petition them for you if you need us lol
10:56:12 PM - Ryoken - Allan, is there any point/character in avengers lore that you dont like/cant work with?
10:56:14 PM - Allan Heinberg - Jessica Jones, of course.
10:56:22 PM - Allan Heinberg - All the parents. And grandparents.
10:56:28 PM - Ryoken - Allan, by all means, handle Wanda post HOM....
10:56:28 PM - KeitaroE37 - Honestly when I see Vision in other books currently I don't even register him any different usually from the original just yet, most likely just because there hasn't been much of him just yet
10:56:44 PM - Michael Heide - And because of the costume.
10:56:50 PM - Allan Heinberg - But mostly I want to focus on the core characters.
10:56:55 PM - manley_childe - I always liked the story where Vision took over all the world's computers. Talk about hacking!
10:56:55 PM - grey_cain - yes! i was hoping you'd say that. i really loved how you wrote her!
10:57:02 PM - camax - Vision gives me great visual joy every issue
10:57:05 PM - Allan Heinberg - Thanks!
10:57:17 PM - KeitaroE37 - Why hasn't Wiccan just used his powers to rebuild the Avengers Mansion?
10:57:19 PM - Allan Heinberg - I love Jim's subtle redesign of the Vision.
10:57:33 PM - Allan Heinberg - Tony doesn't want the Mansion rebuilt.
10:57:43 PM - camax - I love that Patriot has such the cool Cap heritage - glad to hear we will see his fam more
10:57:46 PM - Allan Heinberg - (See Avengers Disassembled.)
10:57:49 PM - Ryoken - More Jarvis would be nice, anyone with me?
10:57:52 PM - brandolp - What YA really needs is their own Jarvis, what do you think?
10:57:53 PM - Dysc - I love the Vision's new look almost as much as Speed's costume :-)
10:57:56 PM - Jazz - :-)
10:57:56 PM - Michael Heide - But maybe the redesign is too subtle?
10:58:00 PM - Mo (rhyo) - Tony doesn't want a lot of things right now....
10:58:03 PM - KeitaroE37 - Well I notice visually, but it's more of the tone of the new Vision personally
10:58:05 PM - Stephanie - Yes, more Jarvis!
10:58:10 PM - Jazz - Speed does look kinda sweet.
10:58:12 PM - Allan Heinberg - Glad you like Speed's costume. Jim worked hard on that design.
10:58:12 PM - MJMcB - Is it difficult to get a handle on how to use Wiccan's powers, That always seemed a problem with the Scarlet Witch
10:58:13 PM - reaperradio - I'm with you Ryoken
10:58:32 PM - Ryoken - Its a great design
10:58:34 PM - manley_childe - Patriot seems to have even more power in Civil War. Will that continue?
10:58:36 PM - Dysc - Believe me it was the high-point of the issue for me lol
10:58:41 PM - Allan Heinberg - We'll spend more time getting into Wiccan's powers in Vol 2
10:58:42 PM - Jazz - I like the glasses on Speed, and Hawkeye.
10:58:48 PM - Captain C - Yes, Jarvis...and maybe a little May Parker for good measure. It would be interesting to get her take on these young heroes, considering Peter was so young when he started.
10:58:54 PM - Allan Heinberg - More Jarvis, yes.
10:59:02 PM - Jazz - Very modern - cool and sleek.
10:59:04 PM - Ryoken - Hooray!
10:59:12 PM - Allan Heinberg - Patriot's powers will continue to surprsie even Patriot.
10:59:14 PM - grey_cain - i like your thinking, Captain C.
10:59:20 PM - brandolp - I like that Speed's costume is green... the same color that Pietro first wore.
10:59:21 PM - Stephanie - yay!
10:59:22 PM - Allan Heinberg - Well, I'm running out of time, guys.
10:59:22 PM - Mo (rhyo) - More definition of what he can and can;t do would be good. Right now I like the mix of powers - not TOO strong, always that little doubt about what they can handle.
10:59:27 PM - Allan Heinberg - Have to get back to GREY'S.
10:59:28 PM - camax - Wiccan seems to be able to get more specific magic results than Wanda's usual more random events
10:59:34 PM - Stephanie - aww
10:59:41 PM - Mo (rhyo) - Now THERE is a mental shift...
10:59:44 PM - Allan Heinberg - Wanda's powers were all about chaos. Wiccan's are about desire.
10:59:45 PM - Michael Heide - Okay. Thanks for the time. It's been a blast.
10:59:47 PM - camax - THANK YOU FOR SPENDING TIME WITH US!
10:59:50 PM - KeitaroE37 - If Eli was to loose alot of blood would he loose his powers as well since they've been transferred through blood?
10:59:52 PM - Tim B ishop - Thanks, Allan.
10:59:52 PM - Allan Heinberg - Thank YOU guys.
10:59:52 PM - grey_cain - it was really great talking to you, Allan.
10:59:53 PM - Ryoken - we apreciatte your time, Allan...you´ve been great
10:59:54 PM - MJMcB - Thats a lot, this has been great
10:59:54 PM - Jazz - Thank you so much Allan!
10:59:56 PM - Mindy - Does Wiccan have any boundries (such as Nico from Runaways can only cast a spell once)? I'd hate to have him turn into a Deus Ex Machina...
10:59:58 PM - Cemberfrost - Thank you, Allan!!
11:00:02 PM - MJMcB - I means thanks
11:00:04 PM - grey_cain - hopefully, we'll see you again soon!
11:00:05 PM - Allan Heinberg - Thanks for all the wonderful questions. And the support!
11:00:06 PM - Dysc - Thanks, Allan!
11:00:09 PM - Captain C - Thanks for being so generous with your time, Allan.
11:00:09 PM - Stephanie - yeah, thank you Allan
11:00:11 PM - GlennWalker - Thank you for your time, Allan
11:00:11 PM - KeitaroE37 - thanks allan
11:00:12 PM - Mo (rhyo) - Thanks for dropping by tonight, Allan!
11:00:13 PM - Jazz - Seriously, thank you so much for your time tonight. You are so kind.
11:00:14 PM - reaperradio - Yes thank you for coming
11:00:18 PM - mande1 - How did you choose Wiccan's codename? i read a criticism where someone compared it to codenaming someone Jew or Hindu or Christian... i laughed but thought they had a point
11:00:29 PM - Allan Heinberg - Wiccan has too many inner demons to go all deus ex machina.
11:00:38 PM - Jazz - You have been a big part of the forum and have always been open to answering questions.
11:00:51 PM - MJMcB - Good luck with your pilot
11:00:56 PM - Michael Heide - Well, Christian is a standard name...
11:00:58 PM - Allan Heinberg - Wiccan is another word for witch. It doesn't have an exclusively religious meaning.
11:01:03 PM - Michael Heide - Yeah, good luck.
11:01:03 PM - Ryoken - good luck, looking forward to it
11:01:05 PM - Allan Heinberg - Thanks, guys!
11:01:13 PM - Stephanie - keep writing Grey, I love that show
11:01:16 PM - grey_cain - yeah and can't wait to read more of you stuff! keep up the good work! :D
11:01:22 PM - mande1 - thankss
11:01:48 PM - Jazz - Please feel free to come back again in 2007.
11:01:53 PM - Mindy - Keep up the awsome work Allan! :D
11:02:05 PM - Jazz - We would love for you to be a part of the Avengers Forever Forum again. |
