The Avengers #322

Puck gets caught in the blast as the nuclear sub explodes…but he goes down swinging.

Judd succeeds in getting the British sailors out of the captured submarine when the Atlanteans attack again. He helps some of the locals of to safety before joining the battle. He catches up with Crimson Dynamo, Quasar and Madison Jefferies as they surround Tyrak on the dock when the sub explodes.

Notes of Interest: 

1) We’re reminded of Judd’s knowledge of Shakespeare as he quotes Hamlet when the attack begins.

2) Judd implies that his near-indestructibility prevents him from getting tired.

WTF? Moment: I’m glad Nicieza brought back the Shakespeare. It was a classy touch to the character that’s been missing for a while.

WTF? Moment #2: So Judd’s now an indestructible object that can bounce around presumable forever without getting tired? That’s a little too much like his namesake…and a little too much like another Marvel character known for SPEEDing around bouncing into things like a BALL…for my taste, but hey – he quotes the Bard!
