"Hi we are Marvel and we don't have any more good major event ideas (especially after Fear Itself was a turd) so we are just going to make our two premiere teams bump heads for 12 issues"

and Avengers will totally win


So far the match-ups are:

Psylocke vs Black Widow
Magneto vs Iron Man (Iron Man has a rubber suit now)
Storm vs Thor
Iceman vs Spider-Man
Rogue vs Ms. Marvel
Namor vs Thing

avengers totally take this

(they have a movie coming out they can't lose)

Go X-men!

Do we know why they're fighting yet?

Also, am I that out of X-men continuity that Magneto is an X-man now?

Yeah, he's been on Utopia for a while now.

Well one can assume it's all happening because Wolverine took all the "good" X-Men with him to form the Jean Grey Institute for Higher Learning back in New York, and right now Cyclops is acting like a goddamn dictator and assembled all the most powerful mutants he had left (Including Emma Frost, Storm, Magneto, etc) and put them on a team he literally calls his "Extinction Team"

all the civilians living in cali are terrified and apparently Magneto just slaughtered a bunch of protesters so I guess Cap will get fed up and decide to kick their asses. Not sure why Wolverine would want to get involved now that he has his new school. Iceman is like third in charge there.

Most of these seem like complete stomps on paper. Psylocke psychic whammies Black Widow. Magneto ignores Iron Man's rubber suit and gives him a magnetic stroke (although I'm sure he'll somehow manage to lose in dumb fashion). Thor laughs verily at Storm. Iceman just kind of freezes Pete right where he is, unless he's been depowered again in the last few years

on the contrary, Iceman just learned how to split his conscience into about 25 and make 25 equally powered Icemen

Though, that said, it's generally oddly difficult to put up a fight against Spidey for whatever reason.

I agree. Most of these look like horrible match-ups.

According to Wikipedia, something about the Phoenix Force returning trying to take Hope Summers as its host.

I vaguely recall something about Tony making his suit rubber, but when did that happen? And how?

And I see a lack of Captain America, I'm going to assume he'll be facing Cyclops. I hope he seriously kicks Scott's ass.

I'm actually liking the way they're structuring this, assuming they do it right. It'll allow us to buy the awesome (Hickman, Aaron, Fraction), while ignoring the **** (Bendis, Fraction)!

Yes, that was intentional.

Do we know who JRJR is drawing for yet? Hopefully one of the bad ones!

Hmmm...in order of biggest blowouts

Thor def Storm
Iceman def Spider-Man
Psylocke def Black Widow
Magneto def Iron Man (Iron Man has a rubber suit now)
Thing def Namor
Rogue def Ms. Marvel

X-Men 4
Avengers 2

These are unfavorable match ups for the Avengers.

Even if his suit can't be turned against him, what the hell does Iron Man have that can do anything to Megneto at all? Unless he decides to bust out the Infinity Gem the he has I can't think of anything that he can do that can't be countered by Magneto, and there are quite a few of his tricks that can be turned completely against him.

I can only imagine the crap they are going to have to pull in order to actually let Stark win.

Thor def Storm
Iceman def Spider-Man
Psylocke def Black Widow
Magneto def Iron Man (Iron Man has a rubber suit now)
Thing def Namor
Rogue def Ms. Marvel


That is how it should go yes. Here is the way I expect it to go:
Thor def Storm
Spider-man def Iceman thanks to SCIENCE (don't ask me how but he will do it)
Psylocke ties Black Widow until someone else interferes and allows Widow to win.
Iron Man def Magneto with Deus ex Machina
Namor def Thing cause some X-men has to win and noone cares about Thing
Ms Marvel def Rogue due to a massive guilt trip
Cyclops is beating Captain America when he realizes it is hopeless

When this happens I will be both pissed off and proud.

Is this only the first month's match-ups? If so, X-Men definitely win most of the matches just so Avengers can make a comeback later.

Oh and proper winners assuming no jobbing/Spider-man getting prep time/help from allies. And everyone *looks at Rogue* starts in base(Base Hulk not Banner form which he is seperated from currently).
Psylocke vs Black Widow. Now omega level psychic with great martial art skills ain't going to lose to no superspy.
Magneto vs Iron Man (Iron Man has a rubber suit now). Not going to explain.
Storm vs Thor Same as above.
Iceman vs Spider-Man. Ice clone spam+wide range freezing powers. Even the spider-sense being back won't help him if Iceman fights like he did in WatX #2.
Rogue vs Ms. Marvel. Ms. Marvel simply doesn't let Rogue touch her. She has ranged attacks.
Namor vs Thing. Namor is stronger and has flight.
This fight was revealed recently.

Emma frost vs Hulk. most of Hulk's forms are strong enough to get Emma even in Diamond form and her telepathy ain't going to work on Hulk.

Didn't they release promo art of a "new" Thor/Norse god analogue? I don't follow much Marvel but I remember that being a thing a while ago.

That and the fact I'm still before Schism/Fear Itself/Whatever the hell else happened.

Schism was actually somewhat good.

Avoid Fear Itself like the plague.

I haven't been reading comics lately either, I need to catch up on a lot of stuff. I'm just not as motivated because both Marvel and DC haven't been that interesting lately.

Magneto's the only one there that stands any chance against Thor, and Thor's made him look like a joke before.

Outside of bad writing (wouldn't surprise me through) Thor godstomps the X-Men solo.

...Yea Thor ain't doing much on Colossus w/ cyttorak power. And Magik. And Thor can be beaten by Telepathy. And Hope can do ridiculous things with her power copying which btw doesn't require contact. And there is the fact that Thor is kinda dead currently. I find it very funny that marvel isn't even hiding the fact that they are bringing him back.

X-Men vs Avengers was a series back in the 80s too.

http://www.comicvine.com/the-x-men-vs-the-avengers/49-3867/

I have been digging back into X-Men comics lately, but I usually skip marvel's event stuff and don't read Avengers. I might check this out.
