Avengers, Fantastic Four Underdressed for Hellfire Gala

The Hellfire Gala is the premiere X-Men comics event of the Summer, a crossover designed not only to bilk money from the readership by stretching the events of a single night across twelve issues but also designed to make the X-Men look fabulous. Nto looking fabulous, however? The freaking Avengers. AND the Fantastic Four. Both teams can be seen arriving to the Hellfire Gala in an early preview of Marauders #21 on Marvel.com, and they're not wearing elaborate dresses and costumes. They came in their regular old work clothes! Can you believe that?!

Seriously? Not even Tony Stark came in a tux? Now we're forced to ask the question: did the Avengers and Fantastic Four decide to show up underdressed for this epic event? Or did the X-Men not tell them there was a dress code to make them look foolish? Either way, the fashion police are building a serious case here.

Marauders #21 is in stores on June 2nd.

A prophecy claims that in the comic book industry's darkest days, a hero would come to lead the people through a plague of overpriced floppies, incentive variant covers, #1 issue reboots, and super-mega-crossover events. Unfortunately, nobody can tell when the comics industry has reached its "darkest days" because it somehow keeps finding new lows to sink to. No matter! Jude Terror stands vigilant, bringing the snarkiest of comic book and pro wrestling clickbait to the undeserving readers of Bleeding Cool.
