wiegieman posted:Doreen absolutely broke his heart into a million pieces and no one can convince me otherwise. I dunno, Logan just doesn't seem like Doreen's type, personally I think she and Peter Parker could be a good couple, Peter just needs someone light hearted in his life, and her having super powers would help eliminate one of Peter's main worries regarding loved ones being in danger, since she's more or less at his level when it comes to powers(it's just not all that obvious cause she usually tries to avoid conflict in her book) Also just realized that Doreen probably doesn't know what happened to Kraven recently, that's going to break her heart when she finds out about it(though it also has me thinking it would be kinda funny if after meeting Kraven Jr she realizes she's got the hots for him*) *I will fully admit I am shipping trash

I feel like Pre-Ryan North Doreen and Post-Ryan North Doreen are functionally different characters-- and I mean I love his run, it's one of my favorite regular titles of the decade, but it's really weird to read any of her stuff between Unbeatable and her first being dragged out of limbo by Dan Slott. That Wolverine thing in particular feels really discordant now, knowing the direction the character would go. Anyway I'm still annoyed she didn't end up with Nancy.

Honestly she doesn't come off that different, it mostly comes down to her pre USG stuff tending to be a tad more serious in nature Toshimo posted:Sorry, you shippers are just gonna fave to deal with the fact that Nancy/Sluggo is canon.

drrockso20 posted:On the one hand that moment was hilarious, but on the other it felt kinda out of character for Logan I always looked at it as Logan knowing Pete needed to just punch something and knew he could take it. Kind of like Thor and Hulk visiting Ben after Johnny got left in the Negative Zone.

Archyduchess posted:To be fair there is a deeply creepy scene earlier in All-New I found where Beast is ogling young Jean and thinking how beautiful she is, which is how she deduces that young Hank is also in love with her. I don't know why she was reading old Hank's mind and not young Hank's to begin with but whatever. It's a gross scene. You can check it out in All-New X-Men #15 if you really want to, an otherwise really lovely issue with great David Lafuente pencils. Beast is the loving worst:

Where's that page of Beast arguing that he might as well be gay because his life is hard? Don't know if this was before or after cybering with The Blob

Logan and Laura's character dynamic for like 10 years: a man who desperately doesn't want a clone of him to follow in his footsteps and let her become her own person, and a clone who slowly has to learn how to shed her programming and become a complete person. Logan dies, guess Laura has to be Wolverine now lol

I also remember when changing her codename as a tribute meant she started pushing loving people away, using extreme violence to solve her problems, and binge drinking. Logan truly failed her as a mentor.

She adopted a kid that she tried to turn into a better person than she was, I don't see how she could honor his legacy any more. And I really don't remember the binge drinking.

all new wolverine was literally entirely about rejecting killing and making an effort to create a family, at least a couple times directly referencing past interactions with logan and doing the opposite of how he treated her, and i dont remember any binge drinking

I really really liked All-New Wolverine but to be honest I wasn't super invested in her character up to that point so any discrepencies or backsliding were lost on me. I think she felt like a pretty functional adult throughout though?

On one hand, sarcasm is pretty impossible to convey through text. On the other, this chain started when I mentioned Laura choosing to go by Wolverine as a positive thing.

All-New Wolverine was a really good series because Tom Taylor is a really good writer but it still burns me that Laura just became Girl Wolverine to 90% of the people who are aware of comics.

If we hadn't had Laura as Wolverine we might not have gotten Gabby as Honey-Badger and that's not a world I want to live in. Or Jonathan the actual wolverine. Gnome de plume fucked around with this message at 03:51 on Dec 2, 2019 |

Hear, and remember my words. Do all of yourselves a favor, and buy the Christopher Priest Deathstroke trades. His 50 issue run is over, but it was one of the most consistently good runs I've seen from DC in a while. I figure it'll be a while before the last volumes get released, but hey, you still have up until issue 35 in the meantime, which is plenty of story.

Wolverine's got a Dracula age gap thing going on with most of the human population. But he's also had amnesia a bunch of times so probably thought he was in his mid 30's for a couple hundred years there.

bobkatt013 posted:Wolverine never banged a teen, while deathstroke did Yup. Priest's examinations about good and evil are a bit whatever in his Deathstroke, but then it all goes to complete poo poo when he states that he did indeed had sex with an underage Terra, basically because he could. Crowetron posted:Wolverine's got a Dracula age gap thing going on with most of the human population. But he's also had amnesia a bunch of times so probably thought he was in his mid 30's for a couple hundred years there. You are aware what pedophilia is, right? Or did I misread your post?
