AVENGERS WORLD! Part 4!

The first of three issues introducing us to three of the most crucial “new” characters!

First Up: Hyperion!

A hero born a world away, in more ways than one! Who exactly is this powerhouse of the Marvel Universe?

AVENGERS #4! Let’s find out! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="❀" title="Rotes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Rotes Herz">
The Hand just...kinda does what the hand wants, huh? https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😅" title="LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit offenem Mund und Angstschweiß" aria-label="Emoji: LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit offenem Mund und Angstschweiß">
But basically this issue focuses on the Avengers tracking down and dealing with the five (six? Seven??) sited that Ex Nihilo grossified during the first arc, just in case anyone needs a quick reference point for where we’re at https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😁" title="Grinsendes Gesicht mit lĂ€chelnden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: Grinsendes Gesicht mit lĂ€chelnden Augen">
I love that, immediately, they let us know that Hyperion is not just some stereotype. He’s got the brawn and the brain
Oh just a land of usually wasted potential, you’ll love it! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😅" title="LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit offenem Mund und Angstschweiß" aria-label="Emoji: LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit offenem Mund und Angstschweiß">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Gesicht mit FreudentrĂ€nen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit FreudentrĂ€nen">
We love a good Superman homage. But I need to know, how similar is this to Hyperions that we’ve seen in the past? I know there’s been several iterations of the character. Anyone willing to break those down for me then please, be my guest https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😊" title="LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit lĂ€chelnden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit lĂ€chelnden Augen">
Three stringent codes...with very little room for error...
And I think that they’re supposed to really play into the themes of this issue. I admit that I don’t think I’ve wrapped my mind around it completely, but I think this issue is supposed to depict that, despite being seen as a Hero, Hyperion rarely felt like a person—
Lines talking about how he could see electrons, see relationships but his that in his heart, the Hyperion that was seemed distant and a little cold.

And I think this issue is about how he learned to start being human, and we’ll see how in just a little bit https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="❀" title="Rotes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Rotes Herz">
That being said, If anyone else, especially anyone more seasoned with Hyperion than I, has any different interpretation then I would love to hear it! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😊" title="LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit lĂ€chelnden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit lĂ€chelnden Augen">
I would dig a Red and Black Carol suit in CM2, not gonna lie https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😍" title="LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit herzförmigen Augen" aria-label="Emoji: LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit herzförmigen Augen">
If I was cinema sins rn...that would be a +1

Lol “it is like vodka...but for MEN” https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Gesicht mit FreudentrĂ€nen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit FreudentrĂ€nen">
Also Thor is 100% hitting on Hyperion, you can’t convince me otherwise. Look at his eyes! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đŸ€Ł" title="Lachend auf dem Boden rollen" aria-label="Emoji: Lachend auf dem Boden rollen">
It’s a funny moment but also another that I feel adds to that possible theme. Because things like drinking are beneath Hyperion, yet not beneath an ACTUAL god like Thor. He comes off as more distant and robotic than an actual god...and that’s the point I think https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😊" title="LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit lĂ€chelnden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit lĂ€chelnden Augen">
Who the **** INTERNS AT AIM???

Does Hydra offer work studies? DOES THE BROTHERHOOD OF EVIL MUTANTS OFFER COURSE CREDITS???
YOU ARE AN UNPAID INTERN! WHAT THE—
Yeah, well, so is Doctor Doom but you wouldn’t catch me dead getting a Flu shot in Latveria!!!
Yeah, yeah, scary translucent skin, whatever...

What the **** is your ID BADGE?!?!
If you’re anything less than a Kryptonian, no you look up and see these two looking down?

**** https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Gesicht mit FreudentrĂ€nen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit FreudentrĂ€nen">
And we get the first reference to the Incursions in the main Avengers title! And Hyperion survived one!

But if anything...he serves as nothing but a loving reminder that yeah...these incursions are SERIOUS business!
He held two earths apart for as long as he could...holy mother of all feats, Batman! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đŸ˜±" title="Vor Angst schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Vor Angst schreiendes Gesicht">
And gif damn I love this...the man so strong that not even the end of the universe could end him...incredible
Is it too late to get Hyperion in the Avengers game? Because holy shit these two together...https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😍" title="LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit herzförmigen Augen" aria-label="Emoji: LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit herzförmigen Augen">
