Cable's going to show up and be all, "What are your intentions with my daughter, Emil?"
Deadpool as a pirate? Hopefully he'll get to rough up Orlando Bloom.
X-Men First Class- Jeff Parker delivers- again. The great unsung hero among X-writers.
X-Men Forever- Is it just me, or does that uber-big font coming out of Storm make you think she's planning a meet-up at the monorail?

You mean the CONSORTIUM or from little not evil Storm?

[Home made ectoplasm]

Way too many splash pages in forever :mad:

Cable on the other hand looks brilliant.

[Disco Jess Minge]

"You can fly! This is soooooooo cool!" :rolleyes:

Storm wasn't amnesiac when she was de-aged?

[timbox]

Cable is on a roll. This issue looks great.

[psycwave]

Its nice to see Kurt doing things once again.

[darknessatnoon]

Forever is written to twelve year olds.

[timbox]

Laser sight on a sniper rifle is so 2003.

[darknessatnoon]

When someone says they want to kill you, shoot lightning first. Ask questions later.

[timbox]

I just want to know if Kitty's claws are still out.

[Imraith Nimphais]

Do the kiddos still say "cool"?...I thought the new exclamation of delight was "awesome"?...oh CC, you do try...I'll give you that.

Didn't someone named Scott Gray write the X-Men First Class issue? :confused:

[Rubicant]

Uncanny First Class really makes me miss Jean even more. She's drawn beautifully in that preview.

[Joe Franklin]

Forever is written to twelve year olds.

In the 60's, 70's, and 80's, 12 year old's was Marvel's target market.

What does this say bout us?:frown:

You're still 12 years old at heart.

[worstblogever]

CONSORTIUM!

It was like the new "...MONORAIL!" for me.

[jarrod]

She was, but I thought she had gotten her memory mostly back before getting captured by the Genoshans?

The sash really accentuates those lovely birthing hips.

[Karl H]

Cable's the sleeper hit of the X-men for me. Duane's doing great stuff with it. He's doing a great job of stripping away all the crap that has grown up around Cable over the years and showing the man beneath.

It looks a little better than when the series started and I like the art a little better. Still can't get over Hope, loathe the little redhead.

[jarrod]

You're still 12 years old at heart.
That'd imply we have hearts.

[SayOcean]

God what is up with uncanny first class....i hate reading non canon trite

The First Class books are all (retrofit) canon actually. Like Hidden Years was, or the Classic Vignettes.

[creaky]

Didn't someone named Scott Gray write the X-Men First Class issue? :confused:

Yes indeed.
The point about Parker still stands, though, of course.

Best part was Cyke's little smile.

[Dog]

I really need to start reading Deadpool.

[SayOcean]

mouth poofixed it, so now are we to believe that Nightcrawler effed up terrigen mists....so now the inhumans have a history with Nightcrawler

[jarrod]

fixed it, so now are we to believe that Nightcrawler effed up terrigen mists....so now the inhumans have a history with Nightcrawler
Yup. And they're pissed.

[creaky]

I'd really rather treat them like they weren't canon, but charming, inconsequential "what-ifs". I think continuity is complicated enough already.

Agreed. I think there's some fear about making them non-canon though, even though that's what XMFC was originally conceived as.

[Majinoaw]

"You can fly! This is soooooooo cool!" :rolleyes:

Storm wasn't amnesiac when she was de-aged?

No she wasn't. She did not go through the Siege Perilous, she was "killed" by Havoc when he was trying to stop Nanny and Orphan Maker... he blasted the ship the "false" Storm was in...

[Disco Jess Minge]

No she wasn't. She did not go through the Siege Perilous, she was "killed" by Havoc when he was trying to stop Nanny and Orphan Maker... he blasted the ship the "false" Storm was in...Storm got de-aged. It's right there in the comics. She went thru the Siege apparently and regained the childhood she never really had.

[Majinoaw]

Storm got de-aged. It's right there in the comics. She went thru the Siege apparently and regained the childhood she never really had.

I'm agreeing with you. When I said no, I meant she didn't lose her memory. I always thought that Nanny and Orphan Maker had deaged her and not the Siege Perilous. I could be wrong though.

[creaky]

Agreed. I think there's some fear about making them non-canon though, even though that's what XMFC was originally conceived as.

Why the fear?

[Justin K.]

Bishop looks so unrecognizable...

[jarrod]

Storm got de-aged. It's right there in the comics. She went thru the Siege apparently and regained the childhood she never really had.
She didn't go through the Seige though, Nanny deaged her. And she did have memory loss when she escaped and Gambit found her.

I wonder if Nanny's working with THE CONSORTIUM?

[jarrod]

Why the fear?
OMG we're back to twins! <3<3


I think there's sales fear. Not like the FC books are burning up the charts anyway.

[Disco Jess Minge]

Shoot, I'm sorry then. It's the heat, melts mah brain.:biggrin:

Maybe that's why Claremont's been so inconsistent with his characterization.

And Stephane, can you pass along to Claremont that kids nowadays say, That's bitchin'! And when they really don't like something or it's too effeminate, they also say, "That's camp as tits, man.":biggrin:

[creaky]

OMG we're back to twins! <3<3

Yes!<33

True and true. Do most people even think of them as canon, though?

[jarrod]

Probably not, lol. Hell, people in thread didn't know even.

[creaky]

Probably not, lol. Hell, people in thread didn't know even.

How well did the First FC series fit into canon?

[jarrod]

How well did the First FC series fit into canon?
I didn't read it, but somewhat messily I heard.

I also remember reading before it "went canon", Parker planned on making Angel a girl. Now if this Angel had been in it, I'd have been there day one.

I repeat: it's all better as just "what-ifs".

What happened to that Angel, again? Depowered? Dead? Still out there?

[jarrod]

Worst fate of all: New Warriors. :(

[creaky]

Worst fate of all: New Warriors. :(

NO! Tell me it's not true! :frown:

But wait, they are no more, right? Tell me she survived!

[jarrod]

NO! Tell me it's not true! :frown:

She was alive at the end, but I don't think they ever made it back from the future before the series ended? Someone who actually wasted cash/time on the series needs to help us out...

[FiddleFaddle]

Do the kiddos still say "cool"?...I thought the new exclamation of delight was "awesome"?...oh CC, you do try...I'll give you that.

It's a rule of thumb that cool will never be uncool to say.

[Prodigy55]

LOL they all came back and then disbanded, but they kept their tech.

[Disco Jess Minge]

It's a rule of thumb that cool will never be uncool to say.

Except when it's used wrong and read as awkward.

Stephen, can you also tell Claremont over at Comixfan that if you write a script, read it out loud after you finished a scene and see if it's clicking in right. If you're still not sure, ask another person and they'll tell you if it's working or not. Bendis does this all the time and look where it's gotten him.:biggrin:

[deathsatan]

"This is so cool!" is not at all awkward. Or "used wrong." You're reaching.

And Bendis writes naturalistic dialog in his comics, Claremont doesn't. If you require naturalistic dialog out of your superhero comics, that's fine. A lot of us don't. I like the contrast of having Spidey and Luke Cage quip like Larry David as they save the world, but I don't need that or miss that in X-Men forever.

How old is Hope now? Nine? Ten?

I like that art better than Olivetti's, but Hope is drawn like a 15 year old with her boyfriend in that preview, and a little creepy.
