The Beast & Wonder Man Vs. The Brotherhood of Evil


 Of all of the X-Men returning for Avengers: Doomsday, I am looking forward to seeing The Beast the most.  He was cool in X3, but we didn't get to see him in nearly enough action scenes.  Hopefully that will be remedied in this new appearance.

Hank's probably being mind-controlled by Houngan (doing that cyber-voodoo that he does so well). As to why? Maybe the Brain is hoping to be transplanted into the Beast's body. If only to have an organic tete-a-tete with M'sieur Mallah!

Hair's Breath? Wasn't that the name of Bobo-Bobobo's Bunch?

Carycomic said...

Hey! There's an idea. Bobobo vs. One-Punch Man!

Or is that too hair-brained an idea? ;-)

Shouldn't that be "Earth's Mightiest Heroes"?

Ah, but what if these aren't actually the Brotherhood, as we know them? Could they be...

...body-swapped with the Fantastic Four?
...the Brotherhood's Earth-3 counterparts?
...Life Decoy Models?
...similarly-powered X-Men planning a ruse?

Or, alternately...
...affected by the morality-reversal thing that hit Marvel a few years back?
...so frightened by something coming that they're willing to cooperate with heroes?

Given the title, though, I'd assume the Earth-3 option.

Which would make this Hank McCoy an Earth 3 version of M'sieur Mallah?

Wow. Really cool cover. Excellent job.

Carycomic said...

In other words, a Light Beast? Nah! I still think it's a case of Houngan-based mind-control so that the Brain can do to McCoy what the Ultra-Humanite did to that poor Earth 2 yeti!

Good one! And I love this art work!

Never realised how closely Wonder Man and Vibe resemble each other. Perhaps in a future cover featuring c-list heroes.
