"I have destroyed a LOT. That takes focus and self-control. So yes."
"But you're not, per se, a 'Destroyer'?"
"Perish the thought."
Oh Drax, you cad.
As for Ronin,
At first the whole "Losing ther desire for their costume" I immediately thought of Steve Rogers, but I doubt even Bendis would be that transparent. A number of people (Read: "Nerds") I've talked to think it's going to be Rick Jones, which makes sense because he's not the first person you'd think of, but it's not some 3rd rate superhero that was an Avenger for all of two weeks. I think Bendis is going to try and make it so that when everything pans out the reader is supposed to slap his forehead and go "Oh yeah, why didn't I think of him/her." But personaly, I think it's going to backfire and instead of people saying "Oh God Bendis, you're like the fucking Hitchcock of comics!" people are going to say, "I read through X issues for that? Oh God Bendis, you're such a tool."Bendis wrote:Once Echo is done in Japan, there will be no need for her to be Ronin anymore. The suit – the identity – will have served its purpose. There will be another person in the Marvel Universe without a theme… without a motivation … or who may have lost their desire to wear the costume they were wearing, and this person will don the costume as the masterless samurai of the Marvel Universe for the time to come...It’s someone with a long history in the Marvel Universe. There are quite a few people it could be, and it’s not necessarily the person you immediately go to, but it’s someone I have an affection for who also has a history of donning a guise that best suits his or her mental tone. And this is his or her mental tone right now. And it just so happens there is a costume that needs filling and a person who can fill it, and so it’s taken.
