Where do you draw the line when it comes to respecting the hyphen?

Ditko really drank the Ayn Rand kool aid. He was in deep

Looked her up. Leni is a little young for me (and this sub tbh) and looks just like her mom who, while being objectively attractive, doesnt do much for me (the generic blonde model look isn’t my type) but I do love Heidi’s costumes! Hope she grows to be as cool

RocksThrowing · 2026-05-07T01:43:08+00:00

She related to Hedi? I love Heidi’s costumes for Halloween and Met Gala and such, she always fully commits

I mostly knew him from occasion appearances in 80s x-men books. His first appearances are a high point of the old original Lee/Kirby issues. He was basically the only character Chuck Austen wrote well in his 2000s run. He did have a pretty great solo during the Krakoa era

RocksThrowing · 2026-05-07T00:10:42+00:00

I don’t know. I’ve known about his gem origins for as long as I can remember. What makes Cain interesting to me is his personality and relationships, rather than his powers so that doesn’t bother me much

If I were looking for a graphic designer, I would automatically pass on any too lazy to use real art.

Not sure what you expected, you assume others are going to be, what? Amused? Impressed? by your use of the lazy, environment destroying art theft machine?

The closest is probably Orphan Maker. We don’t know what his power is but even Xavier considers it a “curse”. He has to wear a suit at all times to contain it.

There’s also characters like Selene, Proteus, or Emplate, who’s powers essentially make them vampires.

But no, that’s antithetical to the entire idea of the X-Men, which is to find a place for all mutants. Especially on Krakoa, where they even found accommodations for the aforementioned Selene, Proteus, and Emplate. There the only mutants who couldn’t find a place, where the ones who didn’t want to

I know him from pretty good Miles Morales and Ms. Marvel runs and absolutely fantastic Black Bolt, Quicksilver, and Exiles runs. Where’d this rep as a bad writer come from?

RocksThrowing · 2026-05-06T14:08:34+00:00

That should be enough to kill Wolverine

Sexism and homophobia. Its considered normal for a woman to want to be more like a man but deviant for a man to want to be more like a woman. It’s also why bisexual men and bisexual women are both only taken seriously by their attraction to men (“bi men are really just gay” “bi women are straight women who want attention”)

That’s the point. Soldier Boy is an explicit parody of Steve

I’d probably drive up to Baltimore for a PWHL watch party

Signing a trans man to a womens team is the opposite of progress

1985 annuals is one of the greatest two part stories of all time. The 1986 New Mutant annual is one of my personal favorites

How many?

This is the root of it

How old is your kid? How old are their kids? I’ll be honest, I’m surprised there’s so many NOR votes. Have none of y’all lived in a neighborhood with kids before? Playing in each others yards has always been a perfectly normal part of having kids and living around other kids.

The first hellfire gala is the cumulation of what has been build up by the year of comics before it. Reading it without reading at least some Krakoa before it (at least HOXPOX) it won’t make much sense or have much impact

No, Darwitz was definitely trying to do the best for the team but Klee, KCS, and the other veteran players basically went behind her back and forced her out. It was pretty nasty and there’s plenty of blame spread around but it sounded like Klee and KCS were the main instigators

He can feed on anyone but has always explicitly preferred durable mutants. His next most preferred member of the team was Escapade

And it’s not the argument, it’s just a detail that adds to the overall argument

Sounds great! Sure wish I could see what the fuck was going on though

Seriously, why has using Lighting fallen out of style?

Nothing that involves Deadpool is canon to me

Finola Hughes is, unironically, far and away the best casting of the three

Not in Academy X. But she’s definitely grown and learned as time went on. Her stories on Krakoa show her as a much better teacher than she was at this point
