#$%^in' Christmas!!

"(Bendis) promises an upcoming issue of New Avengers will center around Luke Cage."

Reactions:

A) What, an actual Avenger will actually appear in an Avengers mag? What has it been, like six months?

B) Gee, Bendis is going to ignore other Avengers in favor of one of his long-term pet characters? There's a surprise.

C) Luke will swear at least 12 times in that issue...That's how you can tell Bendis' Cage dialogue from Bendis' dialogue for other characters...

I still remember in an issue of Heroes for Hire where one of the U-Foes makes fun of Cage using "Sweet Christmas". His response was basically "grandma didn't like us swearing, and she could kick your butt". (Too bad she never said anything about commiting crimes or agreeing to being experimented on in prison.:)

I guess Bendy doesn't believe there are tough, from da' hood (whatever the spicy quanza that means) black guys who don't curse.
