I wasn't sure which to read first so I just read Hellions. It continues being the best book that makes me laugh through the whole book. From the list it looks like marauders is first so I should read that next. Vvvv "Fantastic." In icy text. Also BANANAS nunsexmonkrock fucked around with this message at 17:18 on Jun 2, 2021 |

Hellions: Nanny breaking a bottle and attempting to stab Mr. Sinister while yelling "JUDGEMENT DAY, MOTHER@#$%^&!" will stick with me for a while.

Hellions was just delightful. I hope everything works out for this lovable band of screw-ups!

There's so many wonderful Sinister face reactions. Stephen Segovia isn't a name I'm familiar with, but this is some legit amazing work. It's bananas, you might say.

What's with Kate's "bub" comment to Franklin? Sounds like she's mocking him which is rather out of character.

Just going through my 2 shelves of my comics to read some old ones I found my old X-men cards that I collected as a kid. Figured someone here might enjoy the picture.

Beast has been a horrid douchebag for quite a while. I don't think he reached any new lows in the issue.

Wow, Beast really reached a new low, regardless of what the poster above me thinks. He's now a delusional rear end in a top hat with thoughts of being a watchful god. Not even Dark Beast was that deluded.

Judgement Day, Motherfucker! God that was wonderful. Also it's interesting to tease that something big other than the X-Men reveal happens at the Gala. Looking forward to seeing what that is. And Kate was teasing Franklin, but was telling him that everything will work out in the end. Like yeah, he'll eventually get his powers back so don't worry.

Beast has sucked for years so this is nothing new. I hope the council tosses his rear end into the pit.

Pretty much all of Hellions was great but the best moment in the X-books this week had to be Emma having the hots for Captain America for like 5 minutes before reading him and coming to the horrifying truth that she reminds him of his mother. So I guess drat, Mrs. Rogers.

I maintain the Franklin bit has the feel of a weird editorial mandate - and if it was just some dumb petty bullshit it's still his editor's fault for letting him do it, in that case

I want to say she got a fair bit of panel time back when John Byrne was drawing the book for a while. I have a distinct memory of seeing a picture of Sarah with Byrne!face.

captain america ran for so long without being particularly interesting for most of it. it would be more surprising if there weren't multiple arcs dedicated to his childhood.

His parents were Irish immigrants and his dad was an abusive drunk who died young. His mom died of pneumonia when he was in his teens. So, you know, he didn't have the best childhood.

Where did the backstory of Steve's dad being an abusive drunk come around? Seems like kind of a bad Irish stereotype Also, when are we going to find out what exactly the Hellfire Gala reveal is? Is there a one shot or mini I missed?

I also remember reading that stuff and thinking "wait, has anyone ever covered cap's dad before?" and maybe no one had? Anyway, please stop making everyone the product of an abusive family life. Thanks.

Joseph Rogers shows up for the first time in the DeMatteis run, Captain America #282 (1983). He shows up as a hallucination and delivers a little pep-talk. And continues to appear in supportive flashbacks throughout the issue:  His mother Sarah also shows up in the same arc:  So this isn't just a (relatively) healthy superhero upbringing-- it's a DeMatteis superhero upbringing, so the fact that Steve isn't chained to a toilet having rats thrown at him is doubly astonishing. Sarah herself shows up a few years earlier, in Captain America #255 (1980) in flashbacks as FDR peruses Steve's files. At this point we're just told that his dad died when he was young and Sarah had to raise him alone.   This story was written by Roger Stern and penciled by John Byrne so it might be the Byrne-face panel alluded to up-thread, although #282 has Mike Zeck drawing some very Byrne-y faces so I'd understand the mix-up. Anyway so that's the original Joseph and Sarah. If anything, if Cap had hang-ups about his dad, I would say that it would make sense for them to be about the fact that he looks like Steve probably would have if he'd not gotten the Super Soldier Serum-- bookish, skinny, a little frail looking (and apparently somewhat fragile in constitution). But still-- obviously a nice supportive guy whose ideals remained close to Cap as an adult. So yeah Remender's retcon was a bit of a 180.  And in my opinion not a very compelling one.

are there any comic writers nowadays who don't have big rear end daddy issues I remember when Odin was supposed to be the sensible one. Nowadays he makes that dickhole, Marvel Zeus, look like lovable Homer Simpson.

But even DeMatteis said that Steve's dad was an alcoholic, the very next panel after that one with Sarah So Remender making Steve's dad an alcoholic, abusive piece of poo poo didn't come entirely from nowhere.
