July 1st, 2008 by Gavok | Tags: black panther, colossus, hawkeye, jeph loeb, juggernaut, ka-zar, Marvel comics, sabretooth, shanna, ultimate edit, ultimates, wolverineContinuing from yesterday’s installment, Hawkeye is getting a thrashing at the hands of Sabretooth. Now some of Ka-Zar’s little buddies join in the fight.
It’s funny. A day or so before this issue came out, I thought about how surprising it was that Loeb hadn’t resorted to a Juggernaut cameo yet. There goes that surprise.
Apologies to ManiacClown, as I ended up cutting a gag of his based around Gimpy Cain Marko being referred to as “the Buggernaut”.
Join us tomorrow for more from Valkyrie. Can’t wait.
I really liked the Juggernaut Punch joke. The ad though…I don’t get it. Is there some sort of device on the sandwich?

Nobody knows. For some reason there’s just this crazy action-packed panel of Colossus about to eat a sandwich. It doesn’t lead to anything. He’s just really, really into eating that sandwich.
by Gavok July 1st, 2008 at 21:56 --replyIt’s a testament to Loeb’s profound lack of talent at writing that – as I note in the comments section – in this article (http://www.newsarama.com/comics/080630-michael-turner-tribute.html), he can’t even write A EULOGY FOR HIS GOOD FRIEND MIKE TURNER without it turning into a complete incomprehensible mess.
