Am I alone on enjoying Return of Wolverine? Also he's totally in the World or something not real.

The series isn't doing much for me overall, the first issue was better than I'd expected but this week's... happened I guess? It's ok but doesn't justify undoing his death and the story of the best Wolverine, at least not yet. The hot claws feel really, I don't know, tacked on I guess?

I didn't read any of that so what was the TLDR of it? What makes me think its a simulation or what not is Omega Red and Dakan just being there. Its that or they have Clones. Hot Claws really do seem like a New Hat kind of thing.

So clearly Logan was in hell and the hot claws is him channeling the fire of hell right?

twistedmentat posted:I didn't read any of that so what was the TLDR of it? Daredevil, Frank McGee, Misty Knight, and Doug Ramsey put together an investigation team to search for leads on where Logan might be. They hit a few dead ends, one of which ends up putting them in direct conflict with Albert, the Wolverine clone from the Larry Hama run. Eventually, they hit a site in Chicago that sends them to the local Sotiera offices. Doug gets just enough off the servers before they're purged that they find out Logan's been doing black ops for the company.

Ah that does fit in, as Logan could have been brainwashed, and sent out on the missions, then brained washed again, Winter Soldier style.

Was it someone from this thread that made the joke that like Cyclops, Wolverine doesn't actually have claws but rather his hands just have portals into a dimension of all adamantium knives and he simply opens the portals at will? I forget where I heard that or how long ago it was but I chuckled.

I really liked X-men Black Emma Frost. Hopefully, Emma will be a fenemy in this upcoming relaunch and this won't be forgotten.

Leah Williams needs to write more X-Men stuff, ASAP. Preferably with Emma Frost and Magik, but I'll take whatever she gives us.

I wasn't going to pick this up until I heard the Jay and Miles Flamecon episode and was "wait this lady is great, I must read her book".

Thirding the X-Men Black Emma Frost recommendation. So cool, so Emma, genuinely good writing of a sort that is rare in comics.

There's a What If Magik was the Sorcerer Supreme that also just came out written by her. It's really good, amazing art too.

Okay, Fan Fiction Leah Williams X-Men team. Obviously Magik and Emma Frost, and three to five other people. I'm avoiding a lot of my favorite X-Men because they all hate Emma Frost. Colossus (He's going to want to hang out with his sister) Gold Balls (His first X-men team had Magik and Emma) And Eyeboy (He can see the things even Emma Frost can't).

I brought the whole thing up because I was curious what other people's ideas were for who else would be on a Frost/Magik team. Mine is currently Frost Magik Rockslide Goldballs Prodigy Eyeboy I think the team needs another woman, but I don't want another psychic or Kitty Pryde. Maybe Monet St. Croix? Jubilee? Edit: Assuming Kitty Pryde is still the head honcho or whatever for x teams it's definitely Jubilee. Air Skwirl fucked around with this message at 06:13 on Nov 2, 2018 |

True, but I am pretty sure Williams has that ship firm, not to mention it would be fun watching Kitty and Emma openly hate each other. Then they just all gently caress because its fanficiton.

Williams writes a great Emma Frost, and it's a really interesting direction (has she just been THE Hellfire leader before? I want to say no?), but what's up with Selene vis a vis the Hellfire Club right now? I know she's been skulking around TNC's Captain America but I've unfortunately missed the last issue or two. Also-- and this is so pedantic-- isn't the end-all be-all leader of the Hellfire Club the Lord Imperial, not the Black King (possibly Sunspot)? I've been so in and out of X-Men titles over the last few years that I'm sure I'm just unaware of what's up with this and that, but wikipedia is only so up to date on these things.

Sunspot's marvel.com bio just says "Recently he left the Hellfire Club". It doesn't seem like anyone has established who, if anyone, is the current Lord Imperial. Emma just took over the New York branch. That's the only one that matters in 99% of stories though.
