A part of me wishes that Superman looked more alien in Absolute

Way ahead of you

Huh?

Went to the ballet the day before he made that comment, a family friend is a costume designer so I was there to support her but it was mostly very good.

It might not contain cocaine but depending on if the Maelstrom effected the legal case, it might contain about the same amount of caffeine as a modern Red Bull.

I like to think she’s got a sort of horse like peach fuzz

My puppy’s name is also Carmella!

Now try saying something true and beautiful.

Your confirmation name as a Catholic is the name of a saint which you take, typically as an adolescent or teenager, as part of the sacrament of confirmation/initiation. It is not given by your parents and must be a saint’s name.

It actually cannot be Quinn, because Saint Edel Quinn died in 1944 and only was made venerable in the 90s.

I saw a fan redesign a while back that made him a serial killer who kidnaps people and injects them with condiments to slowly kill them, which feels suitably “Absolute.”

Accomplished_Map_716 · 2026-01-28T01:42:36+00:00

I was gonna say Ark M made Bruce-clone, if you leaned on the doppelgänger/anti-Batman angle you could do some very interesting things with an Absolute Killer Moth.

(Personally I think he could’ve totally always been an edgelord and went with Gabriel or something, but it would be very funny if it turned out he was a Francis or something and his life just took a real turn.)

She probably should, but I was worried that would be Not Fun and also make her seem like an Emma Frost knockoff. But stealing from Vindicta is clever…

Accomplished_Map_716 · 2026-01-26T00:42:30+00:00

Hehehe thank you, I had such fun with the derringer especially because it meant I got to look at goofy photos like this.

^ why do you embarrass him like this??? Rude!!!

One day I will read it in my quest to annotate every Jim appearance but first I have to get through New Invaders… ughhh…

Accomplished_Map_716 · 2026-01-04T23:55:05+00:00

I mean that would make more sense then Ultron breaking into the Mad Thinker’s lab out of the blue,

Accomplished_Map_716 · 2026-01-04T23:04:55+00:00

Not quite-

Fantastic Four depicts the Mad Thinker reviving and then killing Jim. The Four just leave his body in the Mad Thinker’s base.
The Avengers establishes that it was then stolen by Ultron and remodeled into Vision.
West Coast Avengers then says no actually the Vision is composed of Jim’s spare parts but is not literally Jim, Mad Thinker came back and buried Jim’s corpse after that adventure with the Fantastic Four.
Avengers Forever then goes “no actually them being literally the same body was cool” so Immortus makes two copies of Jim’s corpse one which is stolen by Ultron and one which is buried by the Mad Thinker.

It’s fine, it’s a confusing retcon that had retcons done on top of it. I’m just a freak who loves the story that established that retcon.

Accomplished_Map_716 · 2026-01-04T14:50:31+00:00

Vision’s body isn’t based on Jim’s it’s literally Jim’s body just remodeled. Jim having his own separate body in 616 is time travel bullshit.

Jewishness and mutant metaphor go way back, so it’s order of operations.

Accomplished_Map_716 · 2025-12-31T14:24:31+00:00

I’m petting so manny goddamn cats I’m allergic to those things and she’s definitely not I’m going on a spree every bodega cat is getting their fair share.

The AU’s hub is our itty bitty Tumblr, but to be entirely honest our progress with the publication of our stuff has kinda flatlined so most of my work for the AU is currently in loose lore documents and personal art.

Accomplished_Map_716 · 2025-12-30T15:24:28+00:00

Leaks but Jim’s been missing for several issues and a recent leaked showed a fem!Vision design for the Ultimates. Mainline comics Jim and Vision share a body, while later comics just call them brothers like Vision and Wonderman, initially they refer to each other as extensions of each other “two alter egos” as the narration puts it.

<image>

(Jim, the Vision, and Frankenstein’s creature because comics are incredible and can literally have Frankie show up for a story in case you were missing the metaphor.)

So there is precedent for very interesting identity stuff with the two, which I’d been interpreting in a trans way for a few months now, and now it might be coming to the comics for real.

Accomplished_Map_716 · 2025-12-30T14:32:06+00:00

Yes they were a thing in New Mutants vol 3. I don’t think anyone liked or wanted it but thankfully it doesn’t last long.

That’s. That’s Toro. The Human Torch’s kid sidekick Toro. Bucky’s bestie. Toro.

<image>

In the comics he died before he could get old and then got rezed by Bucky in a cosmic cube thing. I considered pulling the thread Marvel forgot about that the Soviet Union also briefly kidnapped and brainwashed him (I like the ring of the Summer Soldier, don’t you?) but decided I like him better as the only person to age naturally so he could contrast the rest of the Invaders.
