One book from the MC2 Universe, and one from the 616 universe (616, 616, 616, 616, 616).

Applause: May Parker. Throwing caution to the wind, May figures she can't be in anymore trouble than she already is with her parents, and dons the webs to go see why the Ladyhawks need her.Hug: Regina. One-half of the Ladyhawks, she may be stuck in that wheelchair for awhile, and she's got a sister that's basically out of control with her desire for vengeance, and there's not much she can do to calm her down. {And all of this is happening in a universe other than the 616 continuity, remember. Not-616.}
Bonk: Eugene Thompson. We know you like to be the protective boyfriend. {Insert "over" in front of "protective".} But May wasn't being bothered by Wes' question, so there's really no reason for you to swoop in and order him to back off. {Especially, since you're probably very pleased that May dropped out of the student council election. Still not-616 continuity.}
Applause: Nova. Whether it's fighting a weapon of planetary defense gone wild, stopping an invasion of ravenous giant insects, or just shutting off a recorded S.O.S., Nova was there to step in and do the job that needs doing! {I feel this sudden and remarkable urge to stand up and applaud a lot. Oh yeah, this is in the 616 reality.}
Hug: Worldmind. This poor computer's survival is reliant on Nova staying alive, which is something that Nova himself doesn't seem too terribly concerned with. It's hard to provide guidance to someone who doesn't want to be guided. {Six-one-six. Six hundred and sixteenth reality.}
Bonk: {Iron Man. He appeared in the book, so on principle.} It's not Iron Man! Bonk for Ravenous, for not rounding up all the scattered ships and troops of the Annihilation Wave. That's how Kree people find themselves trying to avoid becoming dinner. Get your troops together, and get them back on your side on the treaty line!
So there it is, except for one last thing:
*sing-song voice* six-one-siixxxxx!

If Brevoort can come up with one idea as good as those Alan Moore comes up with daily, then we'll consign "Earth-616" to history. Can't say fairer than that.
Nova was really good. It's a shame that it'll inevitably be cancelled before the year is out.
616.
kelvingreen: Come on, you've got to believe in Nova! And in the Marvel fanbase recgonizing a good thing and buying it...
Crap. He's doomed.
616
616
Well Nova must be doomed, it's on my pull-list. The only other Marvel books there are Iron Fist, X-Factor and, um...Nextwave. So yeah, it's doomed.
Oh, that is the most ADORABLE Baby Panda picture ever!
Hugs...Well, Bucky could probably use one. So could Cap for that matter, dead or not. And one for Dr. Strange for making fools out of the "evil" Avengers.
Bonk...Tony Stark of course! He needs to be bonked many many times.
jason: Obviously what you need to do is trick someone else into putting it on their pull list, then steal it from them.
sallyp: Well, ABP still wants to believe in Tony Stark, so using a dead friend as bait to capture heroes, earns Iron Man a serious BONK!
616.
I don't know if ABP is so adorable that he/she can bend reality, but if so, let's make sure that Hulk pops the Iron Man armour open so he can eat Tony Stark like Popeye eats spinach.
616.
kelvin: For reality-altering, we'll have to speak to the Elder Pandas, but I'll see if something can't be worked out.
6-1-6.
Bonk to my LCS for not putting Nova on my pull list when I asked them to!
Yet another hug for Flycatcher, along with a bonk to Boy Blue for not asking what favour he wanted before agreeing!
Applause to you and ABP, as always.
Bonk to Mr Brevoort, who would be well-advised to stop complaining about the label "616" and spend a little more time trying to EDIT instead. Funny how he can gripe about "616" and yet not bother ensuring that Civil War was a coherent story from book to book and tie-in to tie-in :)
Take it and run.
matthew: Yeah, agreeing to favors without knowing what they are is how you can find yourself purchasing smokes for your not-yet 18 friends. Always a risky proposition.
earl: You want Brevoort to concentrate on the comics the company produces, rather than bitch about terminology bandied about by fans? Clearly, you are out of touch with how things are done at Marvel, sir! That kind of desire for responsibility is totally incompatible with Joe Quesada's reign!
Oh yes, I know this is a week late, but applause to whichever editor allowed Mighty Ant-Man's 'Next Week' tagline to be: 'More Luscious Lechery in the Mighty Marvel Manner!'.
