Marvel ALWAYS does this. They kill someone, then in the next issue, or a few months later, they bring that person back. When's the last time they killed a character and he/she stayed dead for more than a week?
It's one of the reasons I don't read Marvel anymore.
Jean Grey, Blink, Nightcawler, Bucky, Uncle Ben, there's a few that have stayed dead for a while, but I know what your saying and it does get old!
AoA Nightcrawler is gonna be in X-force so he's kinda back. But I stopped reading most of Marvels stuff cos of this.
Marvel sure does love their body-snatching, mind-wiping, deceptively replace this guy with another one stories, don't they?
I tried to use Fear Itself as a jumping point to get back into Marvel and the only success they made was making me stay far away.
Sorry Marvel fans, I know you all love your Marvel. I will say that the Venom series is pretty damn good and I am curious about the new series by Resurrection Man creators Abnett and Lanning.
But this? Bleh, pass.
If you like Venom pick up X-Force in trade. I promise you that you won't regret it :)
also who cares which Flash it is...you're not playing as him and you'll probably see him for all of 5 minutes in the game...so if it really bothers you then for those 5 minutes just pretend that it's Wally
At the top of the article it says 'Flash fans will get a chance to play as the character' so you do get to play as him.
You don't play as any pre-existing character in the game. You can try to make them in the character creator, but that's as close as you get. What they mean is you'll get to play missions themed around The Flash, and his city will be added as an area.
It's more about lightning in general than Flash really, the point is a new power type will be added: Electricity. That's why Black Lightning, Livewire and Static will be added in despite not specifically being linked to Flash. Super Speed was already an available movement type. Villains will get a new costume that will allow them to look similar to Zoom. Heroes won't get to look like Flash though, they get shafted with Black Lightning's costume, which technically you could already make.
I'd like to see them try to add teleportation as a movement type.
I know, I was silly for going on the title of the article, especially as when I commented I hadn't played the game yet. I have now (really enjoying it). Teleportation would be awesome. Can you get vehicles? I think that could be cool too.
don't worry about it...the title is definitely misleading....no vehicles yet and I don't know how they would add vehicles since the movement types are there....in WoW they added vehicles because all you could do was walk and run but with DCUO you already have flight, superspeed, and acrobatics
I just thought of vehicles because of Batman, what with the Batmobile being nearly as famous as he is. And Wonder Woman can fly, but she has a plane...
