ep 98 The Last Bendis Tapes Of 2007 pt 1

Time again for another Word Balloon edition of The Bendis Tapes.

Host John Siuntres and Marvel Comics scribe Brian Michael Bendis
answer fan question from his Jinxworld.com message board.

 

Among the subjects covered they discuss the recent Marvel Creator

Retreat,some tidbits about the upcoming Secret Invasion storyline,

and many plots questions involving Powers, Daredevil-End Of Days,

Ultimate Spider-Man, and the two Avengers books.

 

Here are some highlights from part 1...

 

Bendis has two Hollywood projects he's due to start once the WGA strike ends, He can't talk about them until after the strike is settled.

 

Could Powers continue after the death of either Christian Walker

or Deana Pilgrim?

"Sure. How do you know I haven't (written) that already?"

 

Don't speculate that the Hood's group of villains in new avengers books represents Bendis new take on the "Masters Of Evil". That story is still coming.

 

There will be rotating artists on New and Mighty Avengers due to the nature
and pacing of the Secret Invasion story. this will allow a bunch of
artists to jump on the books who's schedule would only allow one or two issues. After that there will be a regular artist on New Avengers ,
and a suprising announcement about Mighty Avengers

 

Secret Invasion will deal with The Hand's reaction to their being led by the
Skrull/Elektra, and we'll see more of the Infinity gem in Black Bolt's
possession (a dangling plot line from The Illuminati Mini Series)

 

What does the future hold for Quicksilver ?

 

"He was a big topic of the last Marvel retreat...
in fact a vote was put about his future as a character,
so you'll be seeing a lot of him."
