>Millar learned his lesson after Samuel L. Jackson threatened to sue him over Ultimate Nick Fury
That's literally the opposite of how I heard things went.
Nemesis starts out as it's own thing (a reboot of the original concept with all of the really nasty edgelord shit cut and Nemesis winning instead of losing and a slightly more sympathetic backstory) but the last couple of issues has Nemesis find out that the cult that trained him works for the Fraternity (the bad guys from Wanted); Wes from Wanted (now the spitting image of his father) revealed to Nemesis how the Fraternity slaughtered all of the super-heroes and then built a machine to erase all memory of them but that the people are starting to unconsciously remember them (hence the cultural obsession for super-heroes movies of the last two decades) and from that a new generation of super-heroes are rising. And that in exchange for a place as Wesley's chief assassin and membership in the Fraternity, Wesley wants Nemesis to kill all of the heroes for him. And gives him tech that lets him fricking cheat like crazy neutralizing the powers of all the Millarverse heroes.
Big Game is basically Wesley siccing Nemesis upon the super hero community, especially after a mass grave where a good chunk of the heroes are found by the newer heroes and the fact that the Fraternity's machine doesn't retroactively warp reality, as characters traveled back in time to 1985 and find proof of heroes existing. But the Fraternity slaughter everyone but Kickass (who misses his ride to the aircraft carrier Biden set up for Nemesis to slaughter the remaining heroes) and Hit Girl, who uses time travel to basically change the past and save everyone and defeat the Fraternity.
Also of note, if they wanted to give Wesley a proper ironic hell, Millar should have found a way to send him into the Unfunnie to be tortured for all eternity.
jap looks cute, but she and the group seemed like SJW morons
it her comics any good?
Not really, as it's a plot point that a straight guy faked being bisexual to get made an Ambassador via playing upon the need for LGB representation on the team
>the twist is that the hero illogically instantly teleported behind in less than half a second despite always being in plain sight of the bad guy the whole time out of the frame
I hate capeshit so much it's unreal
It does. She doesn't "illogically instantly teleported behind", there are simply two of her due to time travel bullshit, one in front who gets shot by the bad guy and one behind who shoots him.
They even take a moment to explain it, so people with reading comprehension issues can understand it.
I dunno. I feel like there's a good story in here somewhere but trying to tell it in just 5 issues was a mistake. Too much happens too fast and it all ends up feeling completely meaningless. Though I doubt Millar would be able to tell a good story no matter the total amount of issues so I guess it's a moot point.
At least seeing that gay Nemesis get his ass kicked for once was fun.
I think I know who are these characters, I guess Mark Millar finally made the crossover event he wanted so much.
Who is the guy? I feel like I should know him but it's not clicking.
Wesley from Wanted
You probably don't recognize him because he doesn't look like blond Eminem in these newer books
Millar learned his lesson after Samuel L. Jackson threatened to sue him over Ultimate Nick Fury.

wait wasn't this a prequel to wanted?
Big Game and Nemesis v2 are a sequel to Wanted.
Nemesis starts out as it's own thing (a reboot of the original concept with all of the really nasty edgelord shit cut and Nemesis winning instead of losing and a slightly more sympathetic backstory) but the last couple of issues has Nemesis find out that the cult that trained him works for the Fraternity (the bad guys from Wanted); Wes from Wanted (now the spitting image of his father) revealed to Nemesis how the Fraternity slaughtered all of the super-heroes and then built a machine to erase all memory of them but that the people are starting to unconsciously remember them (hence the cultural obsession for super-heroes movies of the last two decades) and from that a new generation of super-heroes are rising.

Time travel, moron.
doesn't really negate anything.
It does. She doesn't "illogically instantly teleported behind", there are simply two of her due to time travel bullshit, one in front who gets shot by the bad guy and one behind who shoots him.
They even take a moment to explain it, so people with reading comprehension issues can understand it.
>It's not rocket science, mate.
So Left Hit-Girl is from the present and later she'll go back in time to get shot in the fricking face and die?
Millar has proven in previous stories that he doesn't give a frick about how time travel works. It's just a convenient Deus Ex Machina button to him.
well shit, about time. so much for "this is my face, while fricking you in the ass."
So what's the plan of writing entire superhero comics if you killed them as fodder in seconds?
Title? And is this basically "Spidergeddon" featuring the Millarverse?
It's Big Game, the big Millar crossover.
So everyone stayed dead? What a dissapointment.
>So everyone stayed dead?
Of course not.
huck bros...
Not canon.
I feel like if I had read Mark Millar other works, I would be seething at the way he is just killing the heroes without mercy.
not going to lie, it was a bit shit.
It was a mark millar oc book what did you expect honestly
jap looks cute, but she and the group seemed like SJW morons
it her comics any good?
>jap looks cute
She's Korean
>seemed like SJW morons
>Millar
>SJW
>Millar
>good
I don't know man, that's just what it seemed to me.
>Frank "Play-Doh" Quitely
Dropped.
>her comics any good?
It's a Millar comic so no. Also she quite clearly has the Korean flag on her chest
