    Yeah but it's now broken down into DC Vs. Marvel. How can you quash this? This can be something approaching a Trek Vs. Wars / M16 V. AK47 / Apple V. Mac battle.

    You could replace "arrow" with "batarang" and say the pretty much the same thing.

    Green Arrow is largely a Batman ripoff. He had an Arrowcar, an Arrowplane, an Arrowcave, a teen sidekick. Oh there was a difference: rather than originally being a millionaire playboy who did nothing, Green Arrow used to be a millionaire playboy newspaper publisher IIRC. In the current continuity, he's a millionaire tech playboy.

    One of my favorite moments with him had Batman asking him "Have you ever had an original idea in your life?" or words to that effect.

    And of course Hawkeye is a Green Arrow ripoff.

    I would say that in terms of Avengers comics, Hawkeye fulfills a similar role to G.A.

    Both are the hotheaded humans who are good for some comic relief and for giving a more ordinary-joe perspective to these demi-gods and the earnest, if you will excuse the pun, straight-arrow, do-gooder types.

    You'd think in the modern world a man with a bow and arrow would be as useful as a bird without wings. But comicbook logic always fails at that!

    Yeah that was actually pretty awesome.

    That huge Transformers thing at the end is pretty fantastic as well, I betcha Black Widow takes it down with her handgun.

    Oh wow.

    Another Hollywood movie trailer filled with a bunch of wisecracks and big explosions.

    This movie must be awesome!

    A new clip was released today showing Scarlett Johansen's.....assets.

    This looks like it's going to be fun. It's got the typical Whedon quirky dialogue, fun action, and TITS!!!

    What more could you want in a film?

    I believe I could be pursuaded to offer her a place in my harem, if she asks nicely.

    The Avengers is tracking solidly at 95% Fresh at Rotten Tomatoes, and the pre-sale tickets are blowing the doors off the box office already.
