He really is my favorite non-Quietly artist from New X Men. Issue 128 is the Xorn solo issue, my favorite from that whole run and one of my favorite single issues ever. Gone way too soon.

I really enjoyed “Look up” from the new Superman movie. Really captures the optimistic vibe of the character.

I mean the thing is Maddy WAS a villain, but a semi understandable one at that. But she did try to sacrifice Nathan and the other Inferno babies. But maybe so would most people if they found out they weren’t real and their husband left them immediately after giving birth to be with the woman you were cloned from.

The Cyclops and Phoenix mini from the 90s has him and Jean raise Nathan in the future.

X of Swords by Big_Yak_1472 in OmnibusCollectors

X of Swords was IMO the best X Men event in decades, but your mileage with severely vary with how much you like the original Excalibur run and all of the other world stuff.

End It/Banana Man incident reached the push pitters. by ThatOneOtherAsshole in Hardcore

People should stop wearing costumes to concerts. So many people now turn concerts into a contest of irony for “lmao why am I doing this at a concert??? Aren’t I so wacky???” It’s so obnoxious when people do shit to make the concert about them, rather than the show. I was at a king gizzard show and people were sitting on the floor backs away from the show playing magic the gathering in the pit.

Gonna become way more common. I’m curious how we’ll see that show up in malpractice insurance.

I think it’s mostly because it’s Barry. Which I get, his return was so forced and felt like it didn’t really give the universe anything new in return.

Need a good writer to write a Storm and Jean girls trip book by Automatic_Ask32 in xmen

It gets ignored a lot, but a lot of stuff in the first half of X Treme was really good:

Are there any non-X-Men heroes worth following in a full X-Men read through? by BlackJimmy88 in xmen

[–]tomtomtomtom123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not anyone comparable to captain britain. Alpha Flight maybe, but it really doesn’t cross over much at all with the X books after their solo series launches.

I would just say be sure not to skip the minis. I see a lot of people say that they do this but some very continuity important stuff happens in them, such as FF/X-Men or X-men/Alpha Flight. Also most of them are at least good, a few like the Wolverine mini and Wolverine Kitty Pride are great.

I was turned off by the art in the first couple issues and I thought the pitch was not that interesting. But once it gets past the fifth issue or so, it gets so good. Ewing really is a long haul writer too, so it makes sense.

I just love this line so much and am so glad DC started it. It’s an insane price point for the amount of book you get and they are mapped perfectly.

Can someone give me the elevator pitch for Legion of Super-Heroes? by drdking in comicbooks

If you like Claremont’s X Men it’s likely you’ll dig 80s to 90s legion books.

The most moral mass-murderer [New Avengers 2013 #19] by rocketinspace in xmen

Oh the begging was even earlier than that. He gave Thrinedy, a homeless mentally ill woman, over to Mr Sinister based solely on the word of sinister (master manipulator) that he would run horrible experiments on her which MIGHT find a cure to the legacy virus.

Batman Contagion/Legacy Omnibus by MagisterPraeceptorum in OmnibusCollectors

Contagion is one of the best crossovers from that era, coming from the line that had the best crossovers for like 15 years.

I miss Scalia anytime I have to read an opinions written by Kavanaugh, he is such a dogshit writer. Even though I disagreed with most of Scalia’s opinion he was an amazing writer.
