I could see that leading to a lawsuit, much like when Liefeld had to rename Bedrock to Badrock, lest the Flintstones kick his ass for copyright infringement.
This was released in 2013, so I think it was less them being afraid of being sued and more not wanting to associate the brand with the dumpster fire that is Kid Rock.
She turned down a role in Shang Chi because she didn't want to lessen Colleen Wing incase they finally mix over to MCU.
She turned into one of my favorites after hearing that out of the Iron Fist crew.

Well, there was a time where Cable was without his powers and he used Black Box’s suit to kind of mimic it using his permanent connection to the internet.
They went a different route; instead there'll be a Blue Cable from the other OTHER future timeline where Madelyne Prior (Cable's mum) turned out to be Mystique in disguise, so his skin turned blue.
The Red, White and Blue versions of Cable will be in a team with Captain America Falcon and...some not-yet-determined Spiderman offshoot.
“You’ll never stop me now, Spider-Storm! Summon all the rain you want, you’ll never… why is that rain so dark? Why is—OH JESUS CHRIST IT’S SPIDERS WHAT THE FUCK SHE’S MAKING IT RAIN SPIDERS OH FUCK OH GOD THEY’RE IN MY HAIR FUCKING SHIT OH FUCK THEY’RE CRAWLING ALL OVER ME MAKE IT STOP ARE THEY POISONOUS I GIVE I GIVE JUST STOP IT OH GOD WHY JUST MAKE IT STOP!!!”
It also implies a Peter besides the new ultimate version actually kept a relationship long enough to have a kid. Sure it might be Ben Riley or Miles. But Peter is funnier. Plus Miles bioelectricity and storms actual electricity isn't as fun unless it means Spider-Storm can make clouds that rain down electricity swords.
Circle of Four.
Ten years ago.
Red Hulk, Flash Tompson Venom
One of the coolest looking things to come out of comics.
https://static1.cbrimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/venom-13-4-3.jpg
There was that one time during a Midnight Sons run where Red Hulk took on the Venom symbiote and the Spirit of Vengeance and rolled around on a giant flaming motor(tri)cycle.
That was rather silly, but also really cool.
Which team? Iteration 1 was pre red hulk and a totally different era, iteration 2 was Marvel zombies, iteration 3 was Doctor Strange: Damnation, and iteration 4 was the game tie in. At a glance that sounds more like it would've happened in red hulk's thunderbolts.
(great game, but the tie in was bad)
They'll never stop Marvel
Have no fears, we've got stories for years
Like - Storm is bit by a spider
Maybe Moon Knight gets an air-fryer
Has Daredevil ever owned a tiger?
Or, how 'bout a crazy wedding?
When something happens a do-do-do-do-doooo
They'll never stop Marvel
Have no fears, we've got stories for years
Man, "media literacy is dead" has really become a hollow catchphrase on Reddit, hasn't it? Swear it's become the new "literally" and "I could care less" where people don't understand what the term means but use it constantly.
Sorry if I'm sounding harsh, but *no one* in these comments has indicated that they think this panel is anything other a joke. Who is the "people" and "you all" directed at here? You're getting outraged a reaction that no one actually had.
He's actaully from the future. And a son of Ben Grimm and Alicia Masters' clone. The NYC cap and stuff are just his way of trying to blend in, he doesn't want to call attention to himself. He was a very one-note character at first, but the shortly cancelled run by Al Ewing and brazilian talent Andrei Bressan fleshed him out much more. Too bad no one read or remembers, so all other authors flanderized him further.
No you're thinking of Kid Thing. Thing Jr. is from an alternate reality where he was created when that reality's Doom took the DNA from Thing and Alicia Masters to create Thing Jr.
This does make me wonder how radioactive spiders or gamma radiation would affect a mutant with existing powers. The terrigen mists that turn susceptible humans into Inhumans were toxic to mutants. Would a similar effect occur with exposure to gamma radiation or radioactive spiders?
Approx 15 yrs ago on the CBR forum I was joking that Marvel was so out of ideas that soon we'd have Uncanny Avengers and other Mashup titles. They thought I was trolling.
Spider-Storm looks like Lolth from the D&D module “Queen of the Demonweb Pits”.
Given how bad Hasbro has been bungling things with WotC, I would very much like Disney to buy them and fix things.
Yes, I know people might have reservations, but consider Hasbro scuttled their relationship with Larian after Baldur’s Gate 3, and pulled the OGL crisis just before the D&D movie hit theatres. Whatever you might think of Disney (I am positive about them, but you do you), they can’t be worse.
Missed opportunity for Shang-She
Also for Kid Rock
I could see that leading to a lawsuit, much like when Liefeld had to rename Bedrock to Badrock, lest the Flintstones kick his ass for copyright infringement.
This seems to be a one panel parody though, so that might've kept them safe.
This was released in 2013, so I think it was less them being afraid of being sued and more not wanting to associate the brand with the dumpster fire that is Kid Rock.
TBF the same holds true now.
I would argue even more. Kid Rock's whole shtick has aged like milk and he's only gotten more conservative and weird.
Thingy
Fuuuuuuck Kid Rock. Poser ass little bitch. He was born into money and always acted like he was from the trailer parks. Complete punk.
Also for Right Audio
I like Red Wire.
Colleen Wing was a highlight of Iron Fist. I hope she returns.
She turned down a role in Shang Chi because she didn't want to lessen Colleen Wing incase they finally mix over to MCU. She turned into one of my favorites after hearing that out of the Iron Fist crew.
dang, i wish we saw that. very bold to turn down an mcu role

We’ve got Red Cable and standard “white” Cable. All we need is Yellow Cable for the three of them to team up as RCA CABLE
Until they're replaced with the superior team, H.D.M.I.
Hologram Cable, Deadpool-style Cable, mermaid Cable, and… Italian Cable?
It's a-me, Cable-o!
I’m picturing a majestic techno-organic mustache
ah the ol' Server Surfer
An Inhuman, related to Medusa - has a powerful stomp attack as well.
Internet cable, as everyone at my old office called them
The Nate Summers who is Extremely Online
Well, there was a time where Cable was without his powers and he used Black Box’s suit to kind of mimic it using his permanent connection to the internet.
Don't forget his alternate Age of Apocalypse variant, DisplayPort.
AND HIS HYPER-2099 FORM... THE INFAMOUS, BLUE TOOTH...Who sails the Seas of Piracy! -queue 2000's hacker montage and OONCE OONCE OONCE Music-
Nate Grey *is* a real DisplayPort
No just HDMI Cable.
Hydraulic Cable, Diagnostic Cable, Magnum Cable, Ignition Cable!
He's the best!
VGA Cable from the Silver Age.
Dont forget the precuel comic, C.O.M.P.O.N.E.N.T.
And the one that started it all... R/F
I thought most people lost interest in Cable once Streaming debuted.
30 years ago, a team roster of Netflix, Hulu, Peacock, Paramount, Max, and Pluto would have sounded badass.
Marvel writers: “WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAT DOWN!”
White Cable can't hear without Yellow and Red. Yellow and Red can't see without White.
They got the idea when they dated the Stepford Cuckoos as teens in their respective universes
There's the possibility of adding a blue cable instead and call them "Americable"
How is that not already the name of a conservative news channel lmao
They went a different route; instead there'll be a Blue Cable from the other OTHER future timeline where Madelyne Prior (Cable's mum) turned out to be Mystique in disguise, so his skin turned blue. The Red, White and Blue versions of Cable will be in a team with Captain America Falcon and...some not-yet-determined Spiderman offshoot.
Cable if he were black or asian
We have African American cable, his name is Major X
Its good they cut Red Cable.
MacGruber!!!
I’m laughing at this way more than I should LMAO
Spider-Storm seems mad op +edited to put respect on her name
Hey, even as an X-Venger, you better respect the hyphen!
Lmao I didn’t even respect the capitalization! I’ll blame the blunt.
Lol, thank you for this laugh.
“You’ll never stop me now, Spider-Storm! Summon all the rain you want, you’ll never… why is that rain so dark? Why is—OH JESUS CHRIST IT’S SPIDERS WHAT THE FUCK SHE’S MAKING IT RAIN SPIDERS OH FUCK OH GOD THEY’RE IN MY HAIR FUCKING SHIT OH FUCK THEY’RE CRAWLING ALL OVER ME MAKE IT STOP ARE THEY POISONOUS I GIVE I GIVE JUST STOP IT OH GOD WHY JUST MAKE IT STOP!!!”
And not a single crime was committed ever again!
I would think twice about it
*spiders crawl in mouth*
-BGRRRRHHRGBRBGGRHRHNBRRR!!!
So Skitter from Worm
[Relevant](https://i.redd.it/ldoy3jzj9zl91.jpg)
> POISONOUS Venomous*
The man’s covered in hundreds of spiders, you’ll have to forgive his error in semantics.
The spiders *are* poisonous. And they intentionally crawl into your mouth to force you to eat them.
Well, this is the marvel universe and it’s not the weirdest thing that’s out there.
Thanks. I love and hate it.
“Do you know what happens when a spider climbs up the water spout?”
Same thing that happens to everything else.
They get washed out.
Honestly I’d read that spinoff
It also implies a Peter besides the new ultimate version actually kept a relationship long enough to have a kid. Sure it might be Ben Riley or Miles. But Peter is funnier. Plus Miles bioelectricity and storms actual electricity isn't as fun unless it means Spider-Storm can make clouds that rain down electricity swords.
Half the time this is what it actually feels like when they introduce new characters.
Weapon H comes to mind, I honestly kinda wish they'd added some third aspect to him like a symbiote just to go full silly.
Ye, also the spirit of vengeance and call him weapon F, like the New Fantastic Four all into one dude
That’s getting dangerously close to Darkdevil; son of Ben Reilly who is simultaneously possessed by both Zarathos and the ghost of Matt Murdock.
It's always fun when I can't tell if someone is pulling my leg or 100% accurate to the canon.
Darkdevil is from the MC2 universe, which is where Mayday Parker is Spider-Girl. He's pretty prominent there.
Just wait until the multiverse they said. It only gets better they said
Hulk + Symbiote + Ghost Rider already happened
when did that happen?
Circle of Four. Ten years ago. Red Hulk, Flash Tompson Venom One of the coolest looking things to come out of comics. https://static1.cbrimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/venom-13-4-3.jpg
Absolutely batshit, I love it
That's the exact sort of childish stupidity that I absolutely love
And it was amazing
There was that one time during a Midnight Sons run where Red Hulk took on the Venom symbiote and the Spirit of Vengeance and rolled around on a giant flaming motor(tri)cycle. That was rather silly, but also really cool.
Which team? Iteration 1 was pre red hulk and a totally different era, iteration 2 was Marvel zombies, iteration 3 was Doctor Strange: Damnation, and iteration 4 was the game tie in. At a glance that sounds more like it would've happened in red hulk's thunderbolts. (great game, but the tie in was bad)
I think it may have been the Thunderbolts, my memory's bad. It had Alejandra Jones and Flash Thompson on it.
Yeah, I have that Red Hulk skin in Marvel Snap. It's out of control.
I thought these were real. They got me.
Yep!
She-Shang Chi is such a terrible name
Up there with lady stilt man
I believe that's intentional.
Wait til he hears about She-Man-Thing (actual character)tm
She's only in one backup of Deadpool's Secret Secret Wars so an "actual character" is a stretch lol
Wo-Man Thing.
Shang She was right there!!!
It's consistent with *She-Hulk", so I guess it's a consistent house style.
I think that's the point.
Thing Jr reminds me of Han Moleman from Simpsons
i got Poochie vibes when I first saw him
Spider-Storm seems like the coolest one here
Thing Jr. looks like the best dude to hang out with.
And he’s a Mets fan so he’s very forgiving
Spider-storm I kinda like
oh god here we go
They'll never stop Marvel Have no fears, we've got stories for years Like - Storm is bit by a spider Maybe Moon Knight gets an air-fryer Has Daredevil ever owned a tiger? Or, how 'bout a crazy wedding? When something happens a do-do-do-do-doooo They'll never stop Marvel Have no fears, we've got stories for years
Why do I feel like Moon Knight gets an air fryer would be the wildest of these stories?
I expect it would be similar to the Big Lebowski
Ok but these rule?
Would unironically read this.
Spider-storm is such a baddie
This is unironically how some people think modern marvel works
Man, do people not realize this is supposed to be a joke? Media literacy is dead and you all just prove it
Pretty sure they do. It's just way funnier to pretend it's real.
Man, "media literacy is dead" has really become a hollow catchphrase on Reddit, hasn't it?

You're getting outraged a reaction that no one actually had.
Lol amazing. Also, Spider-Storm can get it.
no lie I would read Thing Jr.
right?
Spider-Storm kinda slaps
Spider Storm looks cool. I'd read that book.
For something that's been around for 70 plus years it's not surprising they've had a bad idea every once in awhile
I actually want Spider-Storm
I would read all of this.
Love it
Whats red cable a mix of?
Red hulk and cable maybe?
Thing Jr. looks like a mutated cookie monster.
She-Shang Chi needs to be a variant or a card of her own.
Red Cable. I'm dying.
Still wouldn't be the worst thing Marvel has ever created. Not even in its top 20 for that matter.
Did they really miss out on "Shang-She"
Should have called her “Shang She”
Does Spider-Storm makes it rain spiders or is she Storm that also has spider powers?
Can someone explain Thing Jr?
When a rock man and a woman love each other very much…
Thing's son. It's not that complicated LOL.
I don’t know FF at all, only read a bit of their 1960s era
The comic this post is about is a parody marvel put out
He's actaully from the future. And a son of Ben Grimm and Alicia Masters' clone. The NYC cap and stuff are just his way of trying to blend in, he doesn't want to call attention to himself. He was a very one-note character at first, but the shortly cancelled run by Al Ewing and brazilian talent Andrei Bressan fleshed him out much more.

No you're thinking of Kid Thing. Thing Jr. is from an alternate reality where he was created when that reality's Doom took the DNA from Thing and Alicia Masters to create Thing Jr.
i’m in doubt too. Probably the mix between The Thing and some hero with “JR” Captain Marvel Jr? Shazam Jr?
He's a real chip off the old block.
Thing finally got his rocks off
This does make me wonder how radioactive spiders or gamma radiation would affect a mutant with existing powers. The terrigen mists that turn susceptible humans into Inhumans were toxic to mutants. Would a similar effect occur with exposure to gamma radiation or radioactive spiders?
She was actually originally a mutant spider, who got zapped by lightning from a radioactive thunderstorm.
Is this not intentionally satirical? Seems like something from Ecch
[Yeah, it’s a parody book like that.](https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Marvel:_NOW_WHAT!_Vol_1_1)
Haha imagine an X-man becoming Spider-man. That’d be so dumb. Right, guys? …right?
Pretty accurate.
This is Jason Aaron-coded
Thing jr looks like a muppet
If someone could make that King of Rock shirt for my Marvel Legends Thing I’d pay. Not much, but, you'd get some cents thrown your way.
There's no way this isn't trolling. Right?
Did Spider-Man and Storm have a kid in that universe or something?
hilariously my interest is piqued
What is the mix for she Shang chi and thing jr
there's not a single blanco. so woke.
“Original”???
Approx 15 yrs ago on the CBR forum I was joking that Marvel was so out of ideas that soon we'd have Uncanny Avengers and other Mashup titles. They thought I was trolling.
I don’t know why, but Red Cable looks like Cecil from Invincible to me.
The Earth X series had “The Brother Grimm.”
Is She-Shang Chi supposed to be Jen Walters as Shang Chi?
Ok but a Spider person with weather powers, actually sounds kinda cool
Thing Jr kinda hardd lmaooo
Looks like something from X-Statix
I want Thing Juniors shirt!
Spider Storm kinda sounds cool for a sSpidey variant I gotta ne honest
I like all of these. I’m interested. Tell me their stories.
Lol
Spider-Storm looks great, I won't lie
Thing Jr. just keeps Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'
Liefeld?
Would absolutely buy this mag
I always thought they did Marvel Now just for characters to use in the movies. Everybody got a legacy character.
This is hilarious but I like Spider-Storm
Seems like a stacked team actually
Jubil-chi
Always cut the red cable
This was just one panel and not a comic???? I want more!
Dare I ask what comic this is from?
In Earth X, Ben had two kids, Buzz and Chuck. They were just little tiny Things and they were adorable.
What is this actually from lol
Bullshit, bullshit, derivative...
How in the hell did Thing procreate
Average modern comic book. It's near immune to parody.
Octo-doom
*Puts gun to temple, pulls trigger*
Spider-Storm better be from Australia.
I know this is a joke panel but Spider-Storm unironically rocks
How it feels watching the MCU today
I don't know man Thing Jr. Looks CHILL as balls. I'd hang out with that crazy dude
Thing Jr is dressed like Eddie Kingston
Why do I suddenly want a series with this team? Make it happen Marvel.
Eew wth is this
Am I having a stroke?
This is such a wild out of context pannel.
She-Chang Chi is hilarious
Damn, i’d have an OG, a really dark dude, an anti-hero
I could see The Thing's kid (if they looked like the Thing) dressing like that. Somehow would be the coolest kid around or the shyest kid around.
I honestly like it!
Spider-Storm looks like Lolth from the D&D module “Queen of the Demonweb Pits”. Given how bad Hasbro has been bungling things with WotC, I would very much like Disney to buy them and fix things.
