Dodson draws an awesome book, loving his Archangel
It's a shame that anyone could have teamed up with Colossus
but we get Emma instead. Hope there's a reason on why it's her...

Beast and Colossus are the main focuses of this story
some may agree they're boring, but blame bad writing
at least we get to see Fraction give them something interesting to do.

I hope Emma Frost and Colossus aren't being pushed as some kind of love affair in the making. They've been very friendly lately. :tongue:

A team-up doesn't make a love affair
haven't seen them be close really either
though it is an interesting pairing nonetheless

When except for this issue?

Anyway, I think both Pete and Emma are out of character in this one. Not that I expect them to be enemies, but this "look how they are friends now" is not really right for both of them.

I know. you're gonna be happy with Emma and Peter being friends, x_g :smile:

But for me.. They (at least Emma) seems to be out of characters. She's acting.. too friendly IMO.

And I don't like Dodson's Archangel. He looked like a bat or a gargoyle.

I like the structure of the story though..

Since when is Emma so chummy with Colossus?

It makes sense to me. Colossus wasn't around when Emma converted to the X-Men proper. Before that, of course, he had known her mostly as an antagonist to Xavier's dream. But, really, who is Colossus not to forgive? Him being the man who not only defected from that very same dream, but, eventually, opposed it (Acolyte). And he's a gentle soul/pacifist? No doubt he'd forgive any past discretions on Emma's part.

As for her, he came into her life as a teammate in what, at the time, was a very tight-knit core cast of characters. Astonishing had them playing off one another like family. Following that and the emotional strain they must have gone through together in losing Kitty... It makes sense that, beyond Scott, Beast, and Storm (maybe), Colossus would be the next most immediate "chum" for Emma to have.

And it's not like Colossus hasn't had this younger brother/older sister thing going with strong, intelligent, leading X-females before. Case in point: Ororo and Betsy.

Yep, makes sense to me.

Emma "You are never alone, Peter. Ever!"

I think there's a Michael Jackson song that goes kind of like that. Which, is fitting. He's one of the few people who's had more plastic surgery than Emma, I'd think.

Oh god - they're pushing the "Emma is loving & caring" angle again..........

I'm glad she's been accepted into the team now, but we really don't need the Mother Theresa act.

I do like Dodson's art (especially compared to tit-and-trace Land) but he does use the same kind of poses all the time. The pic of Emma leaning out of the way of the car has been used a lot.

The way Leviathan's creator says it, it sounds like he needs to be stopped from the INSIDE.

The image of the Angel of Death bursting out of Gozi...Leviathan is much cooler than a little furry man bursting out of a wierd furless dino-dog thing.

I echo the people who are dissastisfied with the Emma/Colossus "friendship." Totally unatural and painful to watch. If you want to show these characters becoming friends and being close, actually SHOW it, don't have the actual characters come out and hit us with a not so subtle anvil by having them proclaim it so we're really really sure they're the best of pals.. Seemed liked forced lines to sell it to the reader, but it just didn't work. These two have not interacted or shown enough concern with one another for them to be making such huge statements like that.

jarrod
03-13-2009, 07:06 AM
I'd say Emma's going out of her way over feeling some guilt about Kitty. That last line was pretty bad though. lol.

I can't believe that I'm actually liking the X-Club now.

But for me.. They (at least Emma) seems to be out of characters. She's acting.. too friendly IMO..

And there you have what is, IMO, the weakest part of Fraction writing on this book: he exaggerates too much either way, and is too heavy handed often. His Emma is either too manipulative and bitchy or too friendly, there is no in between. And the same applies to lots of characters and situations. The blood towel of X-23 comes to mind as well as:

Emma "You are never alone, Peter. Ever!"

That has got to be the worst Emma dialogue ever.

It is.

Imagine the trouble he has going poop.

Cling ons, dag's, smearing and then theres the occasional self inflicted injury wiping too hard and clawing his hole.

Life sucks to be Beast. (this is before we even discuss the subject of his spiked cat peen)

Enhanced sense doesnt neccesarily mean he can't have bad sight; a physical problem with his eyes could still mean he requires glasses whilst having enhances smell balance etc.

You're mistaken. My favourite is the bouncing, blue Beast. So adorkable!

I'm going to post face here because the X-Thread hates heels.
So no one remembers when Kitty dropped the N-Bomb? Oh well.
Hopefully their will be a tremendous fall out between Beast and Cyke over Archangel.

Uncanny is clearly buying time until the big crossover, it seems. I suppose these days this is true for almost all books, but plenty of them manage to tell great stories while waiting (including X-force and, well, Invincible Iron Man).

Didn't Warren already show his Archangel persona in front of everyone during Secret Invasion?

Yes, but only to Pixie. She ask who he was & X-Force said he was a new guy/member/recruit.. So she doesn't know that Warren is/has even been death ( the persona) before. so she took there word for it.

Such an epic fail indeed. WTF, Fraction?



Remember the scene. Still, you can do better. ::biggrin:



I demand an explanation as to why Pixie apparently hasn't told everyone yet.

Because she doesn't know what Warren look like as Death..& thought he was just another new member of X-men that she had yet to meet.

So Pixie's one part Mary Sue, one part "Lois Lane"?

"OH CLARK KENT! YOU LOOK SO DIFFERENT FROM SUPERMAN! HOW SHOULD I EVER KNOW WHO IS WHOM?!"

lololololol

To be fair, one writer was Carey, the other was Fraction, so I don't fault this. But Pixie can't be on one hand -- elegant -- and on the other -- a chromosome-missing tragedy.

It's called 'driving the point home'. With the subtletly of a 12 wheels truck.

And, yeah, it's forced. Civil tolerance and having each other's back in a brawl would feel more in-character.

ts pretty sad when Daniel Way gets someones character and the Uncanny scribe doesn't.

You mean getting the character's voice or...?

It's nice to see Emma as more than a mean bitch

Sure. But sometimes I would like to see any other female character doing anything. Besides Pixie. It is like...It is like I were watching Lost and Emma... Emma is Rosseau, and Kate, and also Juliete, and Sun... and even Locke... or Friends, and Emma is Phoebe, Rachel and Monica, or How I met your mother, and... well, I think you know what I mean...

It drives me crazy...

You're mistaken. My favourite is the bouncing, blue Beast. So adorkable!

I love you today.

Also, I do not mind that it is Emma who is going along with Colossus.
I don't care about either character, and they have been working together for the past godknows how long, so I will accept their talking.

Also, I don't care about japanese guy.

Oh, you silly, silly x-fan.

Don't you know that The Frostitute is the only female member of the X-men that matters anymore?

She's super-duper-for-realsies important. So much so that we should settle for sub-par stories involving her and we just need to deal with it because she's so awesome. Then when we actually do get a good story involving her every six months or so, we should be damned grateful.

Somehow I feel like the last page will be the only part I'm interested in. AKA the Sisterhood forming.

AKA a potential Revanche resurrection.

AKA I miss scans_daily. :(

Face Persona:
I guess that's why I enjoy X-Force more and can see it as more of the Flagship than Uncanny. UXM is the euivalent of Excalibur back in the 90s.
Excalibur rocked the 90s, it was the X-Force of the 90s if anything (ie: best X-book going), especially under Ellis/Pacheco/Jones.

Uncanny is the Excalibur of the 00s.

and she's guilty over some racist stuck in a bullet?
To be fair, it was some racist she had a long obsession with and repeatedly attempted kidnapping. What is it about Kitty Pryde that drives the ladies wild?

she tells it like it is, and they can't handle it.

of course this is coming from a man that says Soul Plane is the worse thing ever to happen to the African community.

Yeah, where's the manipulation and lies? :( She's been crap since the 90s anyway. She's only "bad" because they say in the captions:"Emma's a bad girrrl, Scott tames her with his wiener."

Still bleh. Not buying.

I wonder when they're going to reveal Emma is really Jean with a blonde wig because she starts acting like her more and more.

Jean would never say something that cliche. At least not in a book written by a competent writer.

Face Persona:
Yeah, I can agree with that. Uncanny isn't a bad... it's just kinda there and the other X-titles are leaving it in the dust.
