Kelly Thompson made me like Rogue and Gambit, two characters I never really cared for, on an engaging and sweet level. So I'll assume that she will figure out a way to make Quentin not as grating as he tries to be. And I also think that she'll manage to utilize Gwen well. After all, she was quite creative when it came to Nico's silly powers. Basically, Thompson rules.

I haven't read an X-book in like 20 years but when did they change Rogue's costume to that boring white and green number from the one that she had in the cartoon? Gambit gets to keep his trenchcoat and headband but Rogue can't have her tiny jacket? Fie!

Ha, Rogue's green and white hooded costume was actually first seen 20 years ago when Bachalo took over penciling duties on Uncanny X-Men in 1997. At that point it replaced her Shi'Ar pink costume that got used for around a year or so. I don't hate Rogue's green and white costume with the hood for drama, but I wouldn't mind a quality change. She's had some great looks over the years, as well as some real clunkers, but nothing is ever gonna top the 90s costume in terms of recognition even though her current look has been her longest by far.

If you don't know who Black Knight is you might think he was a kind of a good-guy Taskmaster whose costume is a collection of pieces from other characters.

I think Marvel gave away replicas of those jackets in like 1993 or something. Unless the guy was full of poo poo but there was a dude selling one at Chicago a few years ago.

I genuinely love the bomber jacket look for basically everyone, even Cap. I didn't particularly read any of those books at the time, but that aesthetic always works for me because I am such a loving product of the 90's. Clean-shaven Herc is pure madness though.

Black Knight is the only character the jacket works for imo Re: Quentin Quire Are there the same discussions had when Captain America put those two mutant TERRORISTS in his kooky quartet?

Glad I finally understand the thread title thanks to Marvel Unlimited finally catching up. I assume it was a one-off, but I’d read an entire Shang-Chi mini with that fun silly tone.

Spider-Gwen and Silk clench their bumholes. Basically, I'm wondering if this means there's going to be a culling of some of Spider-Man's other spider related Heroes. Miles Morales is going to be fine. I don't even have say that Peter is going to be fine. But Spider-Gwen and and Silk could be on the chopping block.

At least I don't think he's written for Marvel in a while. That said, considering how shity his solo is, I can totally see Ben Reilly getting killed again. Is there any proof this back-to-the-basics approach that they pushed with some titles is working at all?

Covok posted:s there any proof this back-to-the-basics approach that they pushed with some titles is working at all? In terms of the sales charts for April, Marvel's top 10 books were: 1) Amazing Spider-Man 2) Amazing Spider-Man 3) Hunt for Wolverine 4) Venomized (first issue) 5) Domino (first issue) 6) Captain America 7) Infinity Countdown 8) Avengers 9) Star Wars 10) Avengers I guess bringing back Wolverine counts as "back to basics" but I'm not sure if any of the others really do. Full disclosure I have zero idea what Venomized is. For contrast, DC's top 10 books in April were: 1) Batman 2) Batman 3) Batman: White Knight 4) Detective Comics 5) Detective Comics 6) Immortal Men 7) Flash 8) Flash 9) Justice League 10) Justice League So it's hard to argue that fans aren't craving Their Long Time Favorites across the board, or at least "things they've seen on film or TV" Edge & Christian fucked around with this message at 22:58 on May 18, 2018 |

Edge & Christian posted:Which books are you pointing to as Back to Basics? The first issue of Avengers had a lot of pre-ordered because it was a first issue of a high profile Avengers book. I'm not certain any of the other ones have actually come out yet. Wasn't Marvel Legacy all about that? I don't know how much they actually did though. I remember a lot of people saying Marvel Legacy didn't actually do much at all and was a lot of Pomp and Circumstance. I was still reading at the time but I was going through some personal stuff at the time so I don't remember things too well. I actually remember I was told in the comic book store and got a phone call that told me the person passed away when I was buying Marvel Legacy number one. That was a pretty rude awakening. They were getting better and I thought we were going to be able to put all this behind us but sometimes life doesn't work out that way.

Marvel Legacy was an excuse to get a bunch of books to conveniently be at or near a legacy number so they could charge a stupid price for.
