A YEAR OF GIVEAWAYS: Win a copy of AVENGERS FOREVER!

73 Comments | Posted: April 13th, 2010 | Filed under: Contests

Hey, everyone, let’s give a polite round of applause for Hooper Triplett who either has the best name in the world or is just another guy on the internet trying to hide his identity so his boss doesn’t see that he really loves comic books! He won last week’s contest and will be getting scribbled-in Agreeable Comics pretty soon! If you were hedging your bets on getting freebies and lost out, visit Agreeablecomics.com/shop and give us money for goods.

After last week’s grab at attention, let’s give away another Marvel book, this time the very-much-enjoyed-by-die-hard-Avengers-fans Avengers Forever. It’s a big cross-dimensional, timeline-hopping paean to what makes the Avengers so special to people like writer Kurt Busiek. I think it’s a hoot, even if I can only take it in two-or-three issue doses and Carlos Pacheco’s work is just gorgeous.

How do you win this? Oh, let’s make it an Avengers-themed thing. Tell us what six people you’d have in “your” Avengers line up. Note that at least one of the original six – Iron Man, Hulk, Wasp, Ant-Man, Thor, and Captain America (yes I know he didn’t join until #4 shut up) – must be a part of your group. Winners are, as always, chosen by random selection.

ANYWAY. Leave said comment before 12:01 AM on Saturday, April 17, 2010 to qualify and the winner will be chosen using Random.org’s random number generator. Previous entrants do, in fact qualify, because I’m such a nice fellow like that. Comments that don’t qualify (such as the person from the Harley Quinn contest a couple of weeks ago who just babbled about how great the Dodsons are) will be deleted.

Terms And Conditions:
Please note that because of shipping costs, this contest is for residents of the United States of America and Canada. You must leave your email address with your comment to qualify, as I’m not going to spend any time hunting down someone who didn’t want to be contacted about their amazing prize. One comment per person and yes, I will know if you cheat and will probably mock you in public.

    Hawkeye
    Volstagg
    Spider-Man

  39. 39 hardtravelinghero said at 5:35 pm on April 13th, 2010:

    This could be a great chance to force some characters to grow and evolve and for some old favorites to play mentor and to simply be themselves as we love.

    1) Captain America (always)
    2) Nova (just as everyone else copied the first person who said this; it seems like a fun idea)
    3) Beast (he might buddy with Nova)

    5) Mimic
    6) Nightcrawler

  57. 57 Bart Jarmusch said at 9:00 am on April 14th, 2010:

    Narrowing down the line up to just six members is always difficult, simply because of the web of relationships that have accumulated over the decades. For traditionalists, those relationships are key to the book, an element that has been lost since Disassembled.

    Ant-Man
    Beta Ray Bill
    She-Hulk
    USAgent
    War Machine
    Wasp

  58. 58 Tales to Enrage said at 9:26 am on April 14th, 2010:

    Captain America-Good tactical leader, good trainer during down time, great morale booster both in a fight and otherwise, great moral center for the team, never lets his physical limitations stop him from trying to win. Best goddamn leader the Avengers ever had.

    The Wasp-She’s a good leader if Cap is unavailable/incapacitated, great for infiltration and scouting, and probably friendly and accepting of new and prospective members.

    Thor-A powerhouse for bigger enemies, a wide range of skills (even if he’s mostly used for hitting things really hard), able to provide some perspective on magical enemies, and can theoretically call in backup like the Warriors Three or Sif if things are really hairy. Risks being unavailable due to Asgard problems, but too good to turn down for that.

    The Beast-Brings a sense of humor to the team. His high intelligence is helpful for scientific conundrums, and good contacts with the X-men can provide support for tough fights or problems that require lots of manpower. His powers aren’t too outwardly impressive, but he’s strong and agile enough to last for a long time in a fight.

    Iron Man-Can fill a lot of roles with different suits (and even with his basic armor), has the technical expertise to handle technological problems (especially with Beast to coordinate/brainstorm with), and brings the funding to keep the Avengers solvent.

    Gravity-A new character with lots of potential, both hero wise and power wise. A good way to give new readers a perspective on old villains, without creating an obnoxious new “kid member” just for that purpose. A good mid level power to bridge the gap between guys like Cap and Thor, so losing Thor and Iron Man won’t leave the team completely defenseless against high powered enemies.

  59. 59 Just Some Guy said at 9:37 am on April 14th, 2010:

    The Wasp
    The new Ant-Man
    Black Widow
    The SHIELD agent Scorpion
    The Human Fly (the wildest hero of all BECAUSE HE’S REAL!)

    The blue & fuzzy Avengers:
    Nightcrawler
    Beast
    Mystique
    Super-Grover
    Gorilla Man (he would have to dye his fur blue)
    Hulk (he simply would not wax for a few days & share the dye with GM)

    Thanks for the opportunity!

  63. 63 The Goog said at 3:44 pm on April 14th, 2010:

    1. Captain America (the leader)
    2. Beast (the brains)
    3. Captain Universe (the heavy)
    4. Spider-Man (because he deserves to have some medical benefits)
    5.Hawkeye (because every super-team needs an archer)
    6. Machine-Man (because every team should also have an android)

  64. 64 Marc Mason said at 5:50 pm on April 14th, 2010:

  65. 65 Hooper Triplett said at 11:08 pm on April 14th, 2010:

    – Ant-Man
    – Giant-Man
    – Goliath
    – Yellowjacket
    – Wasp
    – Big Man (for the fans of MC2)

  66. 66 apd said at 12:03 pm on April 15th, 2010:

    Wasp
    Scarlet Witch
    She Hulk
    Moondragon
    Hellcat
    Jocasta
    but we need some awkward/weird sexual tension so, remove Jocasta, add The Vision.

    (And for those of you who leave comments after the deadline and shriek “NO FAIR NO FAIR!” when I delete your comments? Get over it.)
