there had been some speculation that the one who fought jack murdock was absorbing man's dad or something. not the case.

reading the MCU wikia's entry for the diviner.
> After revealing its true name in its native language, he told Whitehall that not only would he teach him how to use its power, but how to survive it.
if this is true, then it may not be just inhuman genes that make you "worthy" to touch it. and may explain why hartley survived a bit longer.
need to dig up the episode and rewatch the scene

@phantom42 i just assumed cal was lying.
@MichaelEdenfield sorry, i meant more about it being something possible to "learn". if cal really isn't an inhuman, it might explain how he could hold the diviner.
12:21
How is Skye's mother alive?
12:34
we don't know yet. i assume it's part of her inhuman power

I didn't post the tiny thumbnail image of Daredevil's red suit because it was almost too small to see. But now Marvel/Netflix has posted a video with it (bust-up).
:O Finally!
Archangel?
> “Ben Hardy is Angel – I shall confirm it for you!” said Singer. “But he’s not a very nice Angel! And that’s all I’ll say…”
If not Archangel by name, then at least in tone, it sounds.
And largely in design
Finally had a moment to load up the Daredevil video on my ipad. Looks like some proper armor, very Batman.
15:43
For those who can't see the video for whatever reason.
Or just to make it easier to view
It's hard to tell from the video, but I'm curious if he'll have the DD emblem on his chest.
when/how does he get the name in the comics?
@phantom42 cough
(beats me)
@Keen Wasn't sure if it was a commonly known thing I had just missed.
I know we had the "man without fear" question.
I've pretty much never read Daredevil.
15:55
Yeah, I've read a few here and there. I've liked what I've read, just never gotten into him.
And he rarely shows up in the crossovers, so I don't even see him there.
He keeps taking the wrong bus out of town to meet the other heroes. The whole "being blind" thing makes it easy for busdrivers to screw with him.
> . Enraged when the legal system failed to bring the Fixer to justice, Matt donned a costume made from his father's boxing robe and went into action as "Daredevil,"
Marvel's site makes it sound like it was a self-selected name.
I read a Batman / Dare Devil crossover once. And the Maximum Carnage storyline for Spiderman had Dare Devil show up for like 2 minutes.
From the get-go.
16:38
I'm Barry Allen and I'm the fastest man alive. This is how Barry introduces himself to everyone, which is why he doesn't feel weird about later telling them that he is The Flash.
17:19
> How then, is she alive? The scars that now cover Jaiying’s face tell the tale of her revival — made possible by the actions of her husband Calvin (Kyle MacLachlan).

“He was the one who put her back,” Bell said. “He was the one who found her and stitched, sewed and put the parts back together so she could use her healing ability to come back.”
17:35
@phantom42 So she is basically like Wolverine, in that she can come back to life?
@JackBNimble Well, Wolverine can regenerate. This sounds like Cal had to reassemble her.
If he couldn't find her arm, she may not regenerate it.
17:53
After Whitehall's death, Cal took her organs back.. That's it..
BTW, I loved to see how Cal was able to knock teleporty guy..
> “Calvin’s known that she’s been alive, but she was upset with him for losing Skye. They looked and didn’t find her. As in real life, when a couple loses a child, they sometimes split in anger,” Bell added.

Bell warned that Calvin has since been driven by one thought: "If I can find my daughter, if I can reunite my family; my wife will forgive me for what happened 26 years ago, and she will love me, and we’ll be a happy family."
So, it sounds like she's been not-jigsawed for some time longer than Whitehall has been dead.

@phantom42 Why is your last message displaying "mention" when you didn't type my username at all?
@SS-3.1415926535897932384626433 Because I set it as a reply.
> replies with quotes don't display the usernames.
> @phantom42 test
Didn't work..
Don't put it in the quote. Go to reply to a post and then put the quote.
You dont want "> @xxx", you want "@xxx >"
New Vision poster.
18:29
@phantom42 > Test.
Still, didn't work..
@SS-3.1415926535897932384626433 I don't see a reply icon there. Did you choose a message to reply to?
@phantom42 How can I do that? I don't see any reply option on messages.. I have already tapped, swiped on it.. Does it require mouse?
1) hover over an existing message. the little down-arrow pops up to the left of the message.
2) click the down-arrow.
3) select "reply to this message"
3a) the message box prepopulates with :xxxx
4) type > blahblahblah
5) hit send
6) ???
7) profit
@phantom42 The problem is: I don't have mouse..
@SS-3.1415926535897932384626433 That is, as they say in France, 'le shaft!'
18:36
@SS-3.1415926535897932384626433 can't help you then. there may be a way on a touch screen, but i (almost) never use chat on one.
@JackBNimble Google failed to help me.. google.co.in/…

> We don’t know is which characters from the current series will be moving over to the proposed spinoff – so let the speculation being on that. There won’t be an implanted pilot episode this season directly setting up the spinoff, either (like how CW launched The Flash out of Arrow). However, story elements that are still to come on SHIELD this year will be used to lay the groundwork for the potential new series.
I thought AoS wasn't doing so hot. How could they announce a spinoff?
@JackBNimble Well, it sounds like it's not fully greenlit yet - just in early development.
> SHIELD currently averages 7.4 million viewers and a 2.8 rating among adults 18-49, when including seven days of DVR playback.
> Agent Carter (that latter, we’re told, has about a roughly 60 percent chance of returning for a second season).
20:04
I wonder what the spin off will be. Inhumans?
20:14
Agents of Real SHIELD
Inhumans of Real SHIELD (a FOX exclusive).
It'll just be a show about Deathlok going on zany adventures as he walks the earth like Caine in Kung Fu.
@phantom42 I'd watch it.
i would too
what if it's a Heroes crossover? "The Company" is really HYDRA and their "lists" are the same.
it all makes sense now
I don't like Deathlok. I want a show about... Raina's unhappiness. AoS: Despair!
20:23
Anyone know when Netflix posts new shows? I'm curious if I should bother to stay up late tonight to watch a little Daredevil before bed.
david mack said midnight pacific for DD
Pacific?! bah!
i'm not sure he's 100% in the know, but if you're unfamiliar with the name, he's one of the writers/artists on the comic
also designed the end titles for TWS
I asked the same question over in the M&TV.SE chat room. Maybe someone over there has obsessively stayed up late for past releases.
But I'll just go with the assumption that it's midnight PDT.
20:39
They should make a talking Flash doll. Every time you pull the mask off, it says, "I'm the Flash"
And it’s normally at 3:01 a.m. EST so that those on the West Coast get it at the same time as the East Coast.
@JackBNimble That's what the M&TV.SE room said.
Is that like the top google result, or something?
Probably
A part of me believes that I'm one of the few people in the world who actually looks at results on a page > 1 in Google results.
Which, I didn't do for that search.
@JackBNimble It'll be a new Odd Couple with Raina and Skye. Two sworn enemies forced to live together. In one episode, they put tape down the middle of the room and neither are allowed to cross over.
I've watched people do a search and see that the very first item isn't what they wanted and they give up. I say "what about all those other results?"
I guess I'll watch that on Saturday, unless you guys tell me Friday it is awful.
20:52
@JackBNimble That's the way Mrs.42 shops for clothes. She walks into a store and looks at the first things she can see. If she doesn't immediately see something she likes, she hates everything there. You'd think this would be a godsend, but after doing this in every store in the mall, she'll complain that no place has anything she likes. Not a huge deal in most cases, but in the times when she needs to buy something new, it gets really... difficult.
Haha, oh man, what if the AoS spin off was Agents of SWORD?
21:44
Agents of Bored, forgotten in an Antarctic base after the Hydra reveal, three low level SHIELD agents try to keep their sanity in a place that is literally the same every day.
