      I know Formspring is closing but please find another way for us to ask you questions! If not I will miss your patient responses...

      I've switched over to answering questions at Tumblr at http://brevoortformspring.tumblr.com/

      Will Chris Bachalo be returning to Uncanny after Frazer Irving?

      Yes.

      Why do you think so many people seem invested in who is stronger Hulk or Thor? I could understand Firelord/Spidey but these guys are supposed to be on par with each other right? Since they were both introduced? It's more interesting if it's a toss up.

      Like you say, it's been a point of contention since they were both first introduced. So it's a conflict that has fifty years of history behind it.

      This is probably going to sound really silly but do you ever get superstitious about doing all these stories about New York getting blown up or getting hit by a tidal waves since you live there?

      No, not at all. There's no connection between telling a story of a city getting blown up and it actually happening.

      How well did Spider-Men do? I liked it, but it seemed to come and go largely unremarked past the initial press coverage. (It also hasn't been referenced in 616 like, at all.) How likely are you guys to do something like this again?

      SPIDER-MEN did well. Beyond that, wait and see!

      Do you have any interest in Vlad's son form David Liss's BP run? Do you think he can be turned away from a life of crime?

      Well, if he can, then we won't be seeing him again in that capacity, right?

      Did you ever get around to reading Polaris origin? Really curious what you thought about it given your strong feelings on the matter.

      I thought Peter did a good job with it.

      Just wanted to say thank you for always responding to my questions here, Tom. You've been courteous and prompt! Keep up the good work with Marvel!

      You're welcome!

      Tom, how do Cyclops' powers work now if his fancy new X-visor doesn't COVER HIS EYES?

      It covers his eyes. Look at his head--do you see his eyes? No! Covered!

      Tom, are you guys not doing the normal "summer event" or will Infinity start over the summer? Seems weird that Age of Ultron would end before SDCC where you normally announce the massive fallouts and new directions...

      Wait and see. But we don't need to do exactly the same thing every single year--that'd get tedious after awhile!

      Tom, based on X-Treme X-Men, Xavier was evil, so isn't it good that Cyclops killed him? Cap should be celebrating Scott.

      Because Cap is the sort of person to celebrate when somebody is killed?

      Because this website so important to you, I am building the new formspring as we speak. I would like to know if you want a new one (basically identical website). If your answer is YES, please sign&share this petition:

      http://www.change.org/petitions/formspring-lovers-let-s-keep…

      My honest answer would be that I'd need to have more information about the new site. At this point, I've already shifted operations over to tumblr.

      I'm confused about Infinity, from what little is in the media outlets. Is it an event across books? or a series? And is there a FCBD issue that's part of the arc? Finally, is Jon Hickman writing it all or just parts?

      Wait and see!

      The first few pages of Fearless Defenders 2 made me really want to see a Hawkeye/Moonstar team up in A+X. Any chance?

      Well, Nick Lowe really likes Dani, so it's not impossible.

      Thanks for answering over 20000 questions on this thing. It's been really entertaining and insightful and you handled all the (undeserved) crap you got from the faceless masses with great aplomb. Always one of my favorite pages to check daily.

      Glad to be of service!

      Would Marvel ever consider giving a potential series a try if there was a kickstarter project that made enough money? Like if the kickstarter would cover the cost for the first six issues to be released, and if the series made enough $ it could continue?

      We don't really have any plans to do anything like that through Kickstarter. We've already got the money we need to publish things.

      Hi Tom, since you say that the principle of ABC (a beats b, b beats c = a beats c) does not apply to comics, then Thor can't beat Mangog but this means (since you see Hulk and Thor equal) that Hulk could. Pak said WB Hulk would smash Mangog easily for ex.

      I don't necessarily define the characters' abilities based on Greg's opinion.

      So I hear Rom could be returning. Is this true?

      If it was, would we tell you about it ahead of time?

      Hi Tom! Unfortunately, formspring just announced it will close. Luckily, we can export our data and import it to a similar site. Do you consider doing that? Thanks in advance

      I normally buy my marvels as HC's but I'm buying AoU digitally. Will comics such as AVENGERS ASSEMBLE #15AU be collected in an AoU collection, or will they be in the AVENGERS ASSEMBLE collection?

      The tie-ins will likely be their own collection and/or in with their respective titles' collections. But the main book will likely be large enough without them.
