Original Sin (Comic Book) | comment |
Original Sin was a major 2014 storyline that went through many Marvel Comics lines. Uatu the Watcher, a major staple of the Cosmic Marvel Universe, was struck down by a mysterious assailant and killed. His death draws out the Marvel heroes to find out who killed him and why. However, it seems that something of Uatu's is missing - his eyes. What did the Watcher see and what secrets does he hold towards our major heroes?The storyline starts in May 2014 and connects through many comics, including Spider-Man, The Avengers, Deadpool and more, promising big changes for many heroes and picking up on plot threads that started as early as the beginning of the Marvel NOW! initiative. | |

Original Sin (Comic Book) / int_41a49201 | comment |
Red Skies Crossover: The X-Men and Guardians of the Galaxy tie-ins have nothing to do with the event other than the basic premise of secrets being revealed. None of the Guardians were on Earth when everyone's secrets were psychically revealed, so the arc involves Gamora forcibly interrogating Star-Lord for answers. Similarly, the X-Men learned Xavier's secrets because they were finally ready to read his will after his death in Avengers vs. X-Men. | |

Unusual Chapter Numbers: Not the main series but the tie-in minies. Those are named like Original Sin X.Y, where Y is the normal issue number in the mini nothing to see there, but X is generally not the issue they come after in the event, but the one they come after in the series they tie into. So Original Sin 5.1 doesn't come after Original Sin 5, it comes after Loki: Agent of Asgard 5. | |

Driven to Suicide: A Mindless One ends up gaining sentience and, horrified by what he did and what he saw, kills himself with the Ultimate Nullifier, much to Ben Grimm and Spider-Man's dismay. The Dum-Dum Dugan LMD does this after giving Old Man Fury a "The Reason You Suck" Speech. That's how the Watcher dies. Midas and company took only one eye and Uatu was still alive. He needed someone to go after Midas with his other eye, but doing so would break his vow so when he confronted Nick Fury, he powered up and approached in a threatening manner. This forced Nick to shoot Uatu, so Uatu essentially committed Suicide by Cop. | |

Dugan dismisses this interpretation of Fury's actions and instead proclaims that he's basically just there to make Fury feel bad about things, as Fury can tell himself he isn't a villain if he still feels guilty about the original Dugan's death. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: In the Invaders tie-in, it's revealed that the Invaders had a chance to defeat Japan without dropping the Atom Bombs, but chose not to go through with it. The eventual explanation given is that Golden Girl and the Kid Commandos purposefully sabotaged the plan, as it would've endangered the lives of a bunch of native islanders living near the Japanese coast. The plan's failure is what led to Harry Truman's decision to bomb Hiroshima and Nagasaki, resulting in far more civilian deaths than would have occurred had Golden Girl not interfered. Radiance, Golden Girl's granddaughter, goes berserk when she learns this. | |

Artistic License – Religion: In Original Sin 3.4, Tony Stark calls Pride a "top-seven original sin". The seven would refer to the Seven Deadly Sins, and the religious Original Sin is a completely different concept that does not have a "ranking system" associated with it. This can be justified as Stark probably not having remembered a lot about religion. | |

Due to the Dead | |
Original Sin (Comic Book) / int_a679184b | comment |
Due to the Dead: Uatu's wife Ulana does not mourn Uatu's death. She claims that Watchers treat the bodies of the deceased as just more objects to be observed. That and she prefers to focus on the future instead: hers and Uatu's newborn. | |

Oh, Crap! | |
Original Sin (Comic Book) / int_ad1db87c | comment |
Oh, Crap!: Three in issue one alone - finding the Watcher's body, Spidey and Ben Grimm realizing a Mindless One has telepathy and the Ultimate Nullifier, and the Winter Soldier telling Gamora that they're on their own. In the X-Men tie in, the X-Men panic when they fear that Xavier's will is going to give the Jean Grey School to Cyclops. It gets even worse when it stands revealed that he gave everything to Mystique! Iron Man spends most of his tie-in in such a state; which is a natural reaction to realizing the Hulk is mad at you personally. In Issue 7, Old Nick Fury realizes that everyone is so focused on him, they don't notice a gathering of Watchers overhead. | |

Everyone Has Standards: A flashback of Fury's career shows that he chose not to kill Spider-Man early in the hero's career despite the potential for the wall-crawler to be a threat according to his usual standards, demonstrating that Fury wasn't an indiscriminate killer. | |

As he goes to meet Doom with his blackmail material, he receives calls informing him that his friends have been killed and his bank destroyed, leaving him to an uncertain fate before he even comes face-to-face with Doom. | |

Continuity Snarl | |
Original Sin (Comic Book) / int_df582b0b | comment |
Continuity Snarl: Black Knight is shown living in New York City, on the verge of going either Ax-Crazy or entering a state of Heroic BSoD. This is in stark contrast to his appearance in Avengers World from only a week earlier, where he was shown as the leader of a team of European superheroes and was in complete control of his mental faculties. Additionally, the last time Exterminatrix was seen, she had violently rejected her father, Dr. Midas. Here, she's once again loyally serving Midas without much explanation. Turns out this isn't the case since she leaves her father to die and thus taking over the Midas empire for herself. An Author's Saving Throw was introduced in a subsequent issue of Avengers World, where it was suggested by an editor's caption that Black Knight's growing madness was the very reason Captain America had refused to re-offer him membership in the Avengers. | |

Space Whale Aesop: The Hulk vs Iron Man saga (Original Sin 3.1-3.4) ultimately ends with one: read your emails, or you'll turn into a giant rage monster. Well, a more realistic interpretation of it could be "don't ignore what your colleagues have to say, even if you don't like them, because they might have something important to tell you that you should take into consideration at least." | |

Original Sin (Comic Book) / int_e9327f58 | comment |
Too Spicy for Yog-Sothoth: Doctor Midas is a deranged mixture of fearless adventurer, avaricious hoarder, and megalomaniacal sociopath. He has tortured, dissected, and murdered several kinds of aliens, willingly jumped into a Cosmic Ray engine whose deadliness makes the energy storm that made the Fantastic Four what they are look like a summertime shower, and planned to hijack a Kree spaceship so he could plunder the universe of its riches. How he reacts when he and the Orb succeed in attaining one of the Watcher's eyes, the container of untold secrets and power? With shame, discomfort, and an expressed desire to get rid of the thing. This is later subverted when he realizes that they should have taken everything from the Watcher's base, not just a few things and his eyes. | |

Put on a Bus to Hell | |
Original Sin (Comic Book) / int_efef300 | comment |
Put on a Bus to Hell: Nick Fury basically gets his entire history and personality destroyed. Guilty of the horrible crime of... killing Eldritch Abominations! Off-camera! For decades! With... radioactive bullets that can kill demons and living planets and anything! (Why aren't we all using gamma-irradiated bullets?) Then he murders the Watcher for some reason and gets Put on a Bus to the Moon, literally bound in chains. Dum-Dum Dugan arguably gets it even worse, since apparently he never even existed after World War II. The X-Men tie-in via Uncanny X-Men is this, having spent at least a year on dealing with the will and its aftermath. | |

Dark Secret | |
Original Sin (Comic Book) / int_f909b16b | comment |
Dark Secret: Apparently, many of Marvel's heroes have one. Among them: The Avengers vs. New Avengers: Captain America regains his memories of the Illuminati Mind Wiping him. Mighty Avengers: Who were the Avengers of the 1970s and what does Luke Cage have to do with them? The '70s Mighty Avengers were accidentally formed by Luke Cage's dad and his reporter friend finding Kaluu, Blue Marvel and Blade in a morgue dealing with lycanthropes belonging to a doomsday cult. The old gang is reforming for some unfinished business... Daredevil: Why did Matt Murdock's mother leave her family? Suffering from postpartum depression, she tried to kill Matt and, after a stroke of luck with slipping on a plate of spaghetti, regained her senses long enough to run, leading her to where she is now. She guesses that Jack couldn't bear to tell Matt that she left him to save his life because he loved him too much. Deadpool: The secret origin of Wade Wilson! And who is Wade's daughter? Wade was forced to murder his own parents after being Mind Raped by Butler, which also explains his Multiple-Choice Past. He also fathered a daughter named Ellie, who was living with Butler's brother. Fantastic Four: Johnny Storm broke a device that could have cured Ben Grimm of his Thing form. Why couldn't it be rebuilt? Johnny had randomly wandered into the machine, throwing everything off. It could only be used once because the radiation in Ben was changing. Guardians of the Galaxy: Why were Star-Lord and Thanos able to leave the Cancerverse after The Thanos Imperative and the previous Nova, Richard Rider, wasn't? Nova sacrificed his life by combining the Nova Force with the Cosmic Cube, creating a rift which sucked Star-Lord, Thanos, and Drax back into their home universe. All-New Invaders: What do Spitfire, Human Torch (1939) and Namor have to do with the Atomic Bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki that ended World War II? And what did this have to do with Golden Girl, the team's Japanese-American member? The bombings could have been prevented had Golden Girl and the Kid Commandos not convinced the Invaders not to attack the Japanese islands directly. With the Invaders' refusal, the government turned to the atomic bomb as a replacement— which the team wasn't aware of. Iron Man vs. Hulk: Did Tony Stark have a hand in creating the Hulk? A drunken Tony Stark sabotaged Bruce's Gamma Bomb after an argument between the two, but ultimately allowed it to have a smaller yield than it would have otherwise, making the damage less than it otherwise would be. Due to said argument, Bruce deleted an email explaining what Tony had done without reading it and blocked further emails, resulting in him not knowing what had occurred, including Tony's speculation that if the bomb didn't kill a living being, it could cause significant mutations instead. In the end, Tony keeps the part about the e-mails from Bruce, realizing that if Bruce knew that he could have avoided becoming the Hulk by reading the e-mails, the guilt and self-recrimination would shatter him. Nova: What happened to the current Nova's father? (Also see the Guardians of the Galaxy's secret, which concerns the previous Nova.) He was thought to be a Nova-killing mass murderer, but was really revealed to be an undercover operative for the Nova Corps. Spider-Man: A second person was bitten by the spider who gave Peter his powers. Who is she? Her name is Silk and Morlun is drawn to her because of her greater connection to the Spider-Totem. Secret Avengers: Nick Fury, Jr. allowed someone to slip free. They have the power to change the world and HYDRA wants it. Thor: What does Angela have to do with Thor? And what is the Tenth Realm? Angela is Thor's older sister and her real name is Aldrif. The Tenth realm is populated with angelic beings who once waged war against Asgard and raised Angela as one of their own. X-Men: What is Xavier's Last Will and Testament? Xavier, at one point, made out his will to give his possessions to his wife... Mystique?! The true sin, however, is that he liberally "lobotomized" a young mutant to protect others due to the fact that he was so powerful. Charles also refused to give him to S.H.I.E.L.D. or Captain America, as they wouldn't help him at all. | |

Shown Their Work: Many readers did take notice and were happy with how writer Mark Waid handled the revelation of Matt Murdock's mother abandoning him due to the poorly-diagnosed postpartum depression, mostly due to the fact that that was unfortunately how it was handled back in the 70s - with just a shrug and "You'll get over it." | |
