It's amazing how little attention I paid to John Byrne's career, after following his FF for a year or two, considering how much I liked and collected ALL his seventies stuff. I guess I thought that he got out of comics just because I did, which I know sounds silly. At any rate, this run was new to me, and I liked it. Looking forward to reading the next collection, catching up thirty years late. May 11, Brian Poole rated it really liked it. Star auteur John Byrne came aboard as writer and penciler and he put the focus squarely on the Scarlet Witch. She woke one morning to find the Avengers West Coast: Vision Quest missing. That set in motion a complex chain of events that ended with Vision stripped down and rebuilt as a cold, emotionless machine. The big surprise: the Star auteur John Byrne came aboard as writer and penciler and he put the focus squarely on the Scarlet Witch. Byrne definitely knew Avengers West Coast: Vision Quest he was doing back then. While the dialogue and text boxes were overwritten and stuffed with exposition, the plot was daring and forward-thinking. If Byrne seemed less interested in some of the other plots he included, the fascinating work he did with Scarlet Witch more than compensated. A version of this Avengers West Coast: Vision Quest originally appeared on www. Nov 03, Stephen rated it really liked it Shelves: graphic-novels-and-comics. My read through Marvel Comics of the s is nearing its conclusion. This is Avengers West Coast: Vision Quest last 80s collection of the Avengers of the Western variety. This is the point in the series that John Byrne Avengers West Coast: Vision Quest over the writing. The series lost much of its light and often silly feel and went dark and serious. This story starts with a multi-national plot to kidnap Vision and erase all traces of him My read through Marvel Comics of the s is nearing its conclusion. This story starts with a multi-national plot to kidnap Vision and erase all traces of him from the world. The first few Avengers West Coast: Vision Quest deal with finding and "repairing" Vision. This trauma begins a process of nervous breakdown for Scarlet Witch. This leads to Hawkeye leaving the team with his estranged wifeMockingbird. Issue 46 introduces the now famous Great Lakes Avengers. Obviously, Hawkeye wants to be chairman From issue 47 forward, the story delves deeper into the downward spiral of the Scarlet Witch. She is teetering on the brink of madness. There is also a sub-plot dealing with her children, who seem to disappear and reappear randomly. John Byrne made the West Coasters into the premier Avengers during this period. As he was writing both Avengers titles at the time, he was able to reshape the entire Avengers concept Avengers West Coast: Vision Quest the course of about a year. Also, he sparked something that other writers could expand on in many directions. The plight of Scarlet Witch continues for years and culminates in the House of M. Hawkeye's team hopping and leadership grabbing continues in this title and into the future with the Thunderbolts. So much more to come, and I enjoy every bit of it. Feb 02, Doctor Alpha rated it did not like it Shelves: abandoned. I waited so much to read this, and the result is a complete disappointment. Wanda a great and tormented character in the right hands becomes for some moments? Get it? It sucks, plain and simple. After three "classic" Avengers sagas revealed to be complete shit I wonder if the first Avengers Masterwork by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby was an accurate depiction of the bad quality of most of the stories involving this team The story centers around the disappearance of Vision, his wife Scarlet Witch goes to the Avengers for help. The plot was very interesting, this is a mystery and just when you think you have it put together something else happens. The only characters who were off in here were Hawkeye and Wonder Man who talk like frat boys and act like jerks. Jan 24, Rob McMonigal rated it did not like it. Collecting Avengers West Coastthis may be the official start of Byrne-as-hack. One could make an argument for his brief stint on Incredible Hulk just after the second Secret Wars, but I would argue that no one knew what to do with old Green-Greyskin until Peter David took Avengers West Coast: Vision Quest the ball and ran with it and that John's attempt wasn't horrible, just a bad idea. This, however, is true butchery of all and sundry, laced with authorial talking to the camera that works in She-Hulk who he manages Collecting Avengers West Coastthis may be the official start of Byrne-as-hack. This, however, is true butchery of all and sundry, laced with authorial talking to the camera that works in She-Hulk who he manages to squeeze in here gratuitously but not in a mainline title that's Avengers West Coast: Vision Quest to Avengers West Coast: Vision Quest serious. Avengers West Coast: Vision Quest walks in and literally wrecks the joint, starting with a fake Ultron invasion, casting Mockingbird as a traitor then forgetting all about this little plot pointand mid-wiping the Vision so he can cause angst. This of course sets Wanda off and leads to her first breakdown. Or, as the blurb puts it, see "The Scarlet Witch's first step into the descent that disassembled the Avengers! Damn you John Byrne, this is all your fault. Also included here is a ham-fisted US Agent before they gave him a real personality another plot point left dangling--he's there to spy on the West Coast brancha ridiculously convoluted take on the Vision-Original Human Torch shared body that I still don't understand even after reading it for like the third time. I hesitate to mention the issue that features some sort of evolved form of life that sends Wanda through my old book, The Story of Life, but hey, this is a review and I must share my pain so you don't have to. I know Byrne made a lot of changes in Fantastic Four over the course of his time there, but they just seemed to work better. They all seemed in context, at least. As with his now retconned work on Spider-Man, it's like he just wanted to break continuity for the sake of breaking it, a trick that only the most skilled of writers can do. Avengers West Coast: Vision Quest also ends this set in an odd fashion. I own the next issue, and I think it belongs with these stories, either on their own or in a second collection, which would mostly consist of stories where other writers try to clean up the messes Byrne leaves behind on both this book and the main one. This is not Byrne's finest hour, but then again, nothing is except anymore for retro stories like Generations. This is not exactly a masterpiece. That said, it is a very fun, if slightly clunky read. Nothing special, some great pages and solid layout choices. One of the most enjoyable aspects is seeing the debut of the Great Lakes Avengers, the little team that could.

  • Understanding the Roles of Vision in the Control of Human Locomotion
    Gait & Posture 5 (1997) 54-69 Review article Understanding the roles of vision in the control of human locomotion Aftab E. Patla* Neural Conrrol Lab. Department cf Kimsiology, Uniwrsit~~ of Waterloo, Waterloo. Ont. N2L Xl, Carmln Accepted 31 October 1996 Abstract This review focuses on advances in our understanding of the roles played by vision in the control of human locomotion. Vision is unique in its ability to provide information about near and far environment almost instantaneously: this information is used to regulate locomotion on a local level (step by step basis) and a global level (route planning). Basic anatomy and neurophysiology of the sensory apparatus. the neural substrate involved in processing this visual input, descending pathways involved in effecting control and mechanisms for controlling gaze are discussed. Characteristics of visual perception subserving control of locomotion include the following: (a) intermittent visual sampling is adequate for safe travel over various terrains; (b) information about body posture and movement from the visual system is given higher priority over information from the other two sensory modalities; (c) exteroceptive information about the environment is used primarily in a feedforward sampled control mode rather than on-line control mode; (d) knowledge acquired through past experience influences the interpretation of the exteroceptive information; (e) exproprioceptive information about limb position and movement is used on-line to fine tune the swing limb trajectory; (f) exproprioceptive

  • The Gospel According to Marvel
    CHRISTIAN RESEARCH INSTITUTE PO Box 8500, Charlotte, NC 28271 Feature Article: JAF1383 THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO MARVEL by John McAteer This article first appeared in the CHRISTIAN RESEARCH JOURNAL, volume 38, number 03 (2015). For further information or to subscribe to the CHRISTIAN RESEARCH JOURNAL, go to: http://www.equip.org/christian-research-journal/. SYNOPSIS Over the past decade, there has been a revival of interest in comic book superheroes, driven in large part by the Disney-owned Marvel Comics brand, publishers of such characters as Spider-Man, the X-Men, the Avengers, and more. Every culture has had its own heroes, from Hercules to King Arthur to the Lone Ranger, but the phenomenal popularity of Marvel superheroes in recent years suggests that Marvel’s unique approach to envisioning heroism is, for better or worse, feeding some sort of spiritual hunger in American culture. In the 1960s, Marvel transformed the entire comic book industry by introducing heroes who were ordinary people that found themselves with unique abilities and struggled to overcome personal weaknesses to use those abilities for the benefit of those in need. Marvel’s attempt to ground their heroes in a more realistic world than other superheroes led to at least two questionable results. First, the Marvel universe tends to avoid genuinely supernatural phenomena, instead explaining unusual events in science fiction terms. Second, as popular culture has coarsened in the decades since the 1960s, Marvel’s flawed heroes have had to become more violent to maintain their apparent psychological realism. This means that comic books are now less appropriate for children than they were in the past.

  • Loki Production Brief
    PRODUCTION BRIEF “I am Loki, and I am burdened with glorious purpose.” —Loki arvel Studios’ “Loki,” an original live-action series created exclusively for Disney+, features the mercurial God of Mischief as he steps out of his brother’s shadow. The series, described as a crime-thriller meets epic-adventure, takes place after the events Mof “Avengers: Endgame.” “‘Loki’ is intriguingly different with a bold creative swing,” says Kevin Feige, President, Marvel Studios and Chief Creative Officer, Marvel. “This series breaks new ground for the Marvel Cinematic Universe before it, and lays the groundwork for things to come.” The starting point of the series is the moment in “Avengers: Endgame” when the 2012 Loki takes the Tesseract—from there Loki lands in the hands of the Time Variance Authority (TVA), which is outside of the timeline, concurrent to the current day Marvel Cinematic Universe. In his cross-timeline journey, Loki finds himself a fish out of water as he tries to navigate—and manipulate—his way through the bureaucratic nightmare that is the Time Variance Authority and its by-the-numbers mentality. This is Loki as you have never seen him. Stripped of his self- proclaimed majesty but with his ego still intact, Loki faces consequences he never thought could happen to such a supreme being as himself. In that, there is a lot of humor as he is taken down a few pegs and struggles to find his footing in the unforgiving bureaucracy of the Time Variance Authority. As the series progresses, we see different sides of Loki as he is drawn into helping to solve a serious crime with an agent 1 of the TVA, Mobius, who needs his “unique Loki perspective” to locate the culprits and mend the timeline.
