Will the New Warriors return back again? Maybe 2007 or 2008.

I hope so. --Previous Message-- : Yeah, Rage, Silhouette and Debrii, I can see : joining the Secret Avengers. Rage and Sil, : exactly for the reasons you discussed, plus : two more: Sil was always a more private : person, and Rage's grandmother was kiulled : because his identity ended up being known to : the wrong people. : : Firestar: Since she's always been portrayed : as one of the more grounded members of the : Warriors, it actually doesn't surprise me : that she, seeing how running afoul of the : SRA could ruin her life, would decide to : retire. As you point out, though, whether : she'll be able to STAY retired is a whole : different story. After all, there's been at : least one occasion when she went to aid : someone in trouble without a disguise... : : Justice: Actually, this is the only point on : which you and I part ways, Star Thief. Once : upon a time, I might have said that Vance, : blinded by hero worship, would have followed : Captain America onto the Secret Avengers : simply because it was led by his idol. But : Vance has matured a great deal since then, : and he wouldn't just follow Cap out of a : knee-jerk sense of loyalty any longer. Vance : does what he thinks is right. Also, : remember, he is trying to, in a way, embody : the spirit of justice --- an ephemeral : concept that doesn't always go hand in hand : with the law. : : Had those pushing the SRA not actually : imprisoned those failing to register, then I : could see Vance staying on the sidelines. : But once that line was crossed --- : dissenters being jailed for expressing their : opinion --- then, no, I don't believe Vance : would have stayed off the firing line. : : Also, don't forget, Vance, in another : reality (New Warriors Vol. I #11-13), was : part of an illegal rebel group. So, it's not : without precedent that he'd go against the : law to do what he thought was right. : : And that's not even including his alternate : future-self, Vance Astro, a member of the : rebel group that became the Guardians of the : Galaxy. : : --Previous Message-- : Not to comment on Civil War as a whole, but : I'm not sure if every Warrior's role in : event makes sense. : : Rage: I can see him siding with Captain : America, since Rage is probably more : concerned with street level crime, much like : Luke Cage. : : Silhouette: See Above : : Speedball: I like what they've done with : Speedball so far, since he's been placed in : an interesting position that shows his : ideals and examines his character. : : My biggest contentions: : Firestar: Would Angelica just quit? Yes, : she's a female Peter Parker that's more : interested in having a normal life than : being a superheroine, and she's never had : the greatest motivation for being a : superheroine. She joined the Warriors : because Thrasher asked her, and she joined : the Avengers because of Vance. I understand : that she would probably put the costume : aside since the risk might not seem worth it : at the moment, but I can't help but think : that Angel would still become Firestar if : the need arose (and she probably will). I : think I doubt the idea that she would : actually talk to a reporter and so that the : world would know that Firestar was quitting, : since Angel was always one of the more : private characters in comics. Plus, she's : already defactor registered because of her : mutant status and likely unmasked to the : public thanks to Carlton, so it can be : argued that she will be a target regardless. : : Justice: I'm not convinced that the New : Warriors' original boyscout would be so : willing to go against the law given his : history. I can see Vance disagreeing with : Registration and openly opposing it, but I : can't see him going underground to run : around with Cap's group. The Warriors, at : their heart, were always about the shades of : gray, and I think some of their characters, : especially Justice, wouldn't be so quick to : side with either stance. Vance in : particular knows the dangers of superhuman : powers, so I think he would definately be : somewhat sympathetic to the Registration : side and he could probably make one of the : stronger arguments for that stance. It was : also shown that when he was a prisoner in : the Vault, Vance believed in working within : the system to correct the system. On the : other hand, especially because of his : ethnicity, I can understand that Vance would : be very critical of Registration. But I : can't see him running around with an : underground group, even if it's led by : Captain America. : : So, not to comment on how Marvel has handled : the Registration issue, but what do folks : think of the Warriors involvement so far? : : Star Thief : : : : :
