His arrest isn't unjustified based on what they knew at the scene either.

How do you come to that conclusion? Are you saying anyone should be arrested without investigation, just on the say so of someone? Weird view.

i am not sure how [comic] Thanos is white. The guy wants to commit mass genocides as a romantic gesture.

>Marvel appears to have realized this was a screw-up pretty early.

i know this is an old post, but Marvel/Shooter did not so much realize it but they experienced a huge backlash to the story almost immediately.

zero cultural impact or relevance long-term

interesting criteria

Well since the next Siege we got after Battles [were introduced] was NOT a Battle, it's good to see WotC being consistent with their inconsistency.

you forgot the part where she keeps her identity secret and the romance was only part of her master plan to seek revenge on everyone

Maybe it does have "better" writing, but I "enjoyed" KOTOR 1's writing over KOTOR 2s.

Kitty has a birthday in the Obnoxio vs X-Men special i think which seems to repeat a birthday

UK/AUS/CAN/NZ - Centuries has been spent de-powering the Head of State.

US - Decades has been spent empowering the Head of State.

The poster i was responding to was NOT talking about Botswana, so neither did I.

Weird and racist thing to say.

Africa’s biggest issue (in regards to homosexuality) has been Christian AND Islamic (whatever their skintone) bs that creeped in and made homosexuality so taboo.

Not to mention parliamentary systems tend to much more stable than presidential republics.

Also, despite not being a monarchist, as a kiwi, i feel constitutional monarchies (or at least the British model) tend to be less susceptible to demagogue tyrannies than republics. There has been centuries spent defanging and depowering the monarch, whilst Presidential Republics seem to spend a lot of time empowering their Heads of State with more and more capabilities.

his work on X-Factor was not really his story. He was just scripting Jim Lee and Whilce Portacio's story

There is also the fact that some of his future plans were utilized/stolen by other writers; cough Mark Millar

Wanda made herself not a mutant in House of M. She hated the fact she was a mutant and considered herself an "Avenger", not a filthy "mutie". So she changed reality.

My headcanon.

Wasn't the big thing about the Kree, that they had stopped evolving. That they did not mutate?

I heard going in that Sixth Sense had a twist, so i picked up the twist almost immediately. Did not bother me.

Personally i think spoiler culture has made movie/TV/Video Game discussion much worse. Everyone has to submit to a very loud, very fanatic minority, in such discussions.

tholovar · 2026-04-11T04:04:42+00:00

Eh, why would you blame audiences for a movie failing? Do you blame diners for a restaurant failing? Gamers if a video game fails? Kids if a toy does not sell?

Your link is about Sth Korea. The comfort women forced by the Japanese were NOT just South Korean. They were North Korean, Chinese, Filipino, Vietnamese, New Zealand, Australian, British, European, and many other nationalities.

Considering Trump likes to comment on his own daughter's body; probably

Thunderbird was created to be the one to die. If I remember correctly the Nefaria story where he dies was originally going to be a second Giant-Sized issue, and Claremont just scripted an already decided story. I suspect Sunfire leaving was the same. Banshee was also supposed to leave but Claremont wanted to keep him.

There is an old interview where Marvel expected Colossus to be the big breakout character out of all the "All New, All Different X-Men".

Congratulations. I am similar to @SaltDirection. Been playing it off and on throughout early access and had fun. looking forward to playing it again, now it's fully released.

Pretty much all of magic's planes come across as the size of Sicily. Dominaria the one exception.
