->What I find interesting now is how many "throwaways" these stories have -- visual ideas, gags, "bits," -- that are inessential to the plot. They're simply things I wanted to do. I tend to be more disciplined, now, in this regard. But I wonder if that's entirely a virtue. Those throwaways are really pretty fun, rather like searching for the hidden animals in a children's magazine puzzle picture. Every page promises a new "bird" or "squirrel"...or a moon that echoes Concrete's bullet-cratered head, or a sculpture of a backstabber in the mansion of a betraying rock star.

->We cut to Avengers Mansion, where all the superheroes that were not abducted are gathering, got a list, are already figuring out who is missing. There's a weird little drawing the bottom left corner by Ron Lim where ComicBook/{{Iceman}} trips Speedball who apparently plants his face between ComicBook/SheHulk's boobs. Is that something that Jim Starlin wrote into this cosmic script? Or was Ron Lim getting bored and was just like "I gotta draw this for '''me'''."
