Being one of the "pink-skinned" Kree that the renegades abhor would naturally see Mar-vell having a low opinion of his opposition's motivations as well as their overall rationale.<br />Comicsfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10064955427593820783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-20343229069532814142018-01-19T08:55:41.613-05:002018-01-19T08:55:41.613-05:00Never read this, but this is a good reminder that ...Never read this, but this is a good reminder that for all the grief 90s and beyond comics get, the glory days had some nonsensical moments as well. Not every comic before 1990 is comic gold. <br /><br />When I think of the writers who had the biggest impact on Rick as a character (Stan Lee, Roy Thomas, Peter David), I have always thought he exists for the creator to vicariously live out his own fantasies. <br /><br />Jarednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-24804607259811904102018-01-19T07:00:11.140-05:002018-01-19T07:00:11.140-05:00“Conservative”?

Rick only seemed to be acting on a dare from his friends to see if he had the nerve to sneak past the base guards--which adds up, since the gamma bomb test appears to have been arranged without informing any news media and no one outside of the installation had any knowledge of it (with the exception of a few people in Washington, no doubt, and, of course, spies like Igor).<br />Comicsfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10064955427593820783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-49963146370818424092018-01-19T04:16:28.466-05:002018-01-19T04:16:28.466-05:00Yeah, Rick's an idiot.
