Wanderer posted:The real twist is going to come from how every time they send Wolverine into the Orchis strike and gently caress it up, they're further funding Orchis to the tune of a few billion dollars' worth of synthetic Adamantium. Can you re-melt adamantium? I thought the entire point of is was you couldn't change it after it hardens? They just have a bunch of Wolverine skellies. I guess they are just right next to the Sun, they can probably re-melt it.

There are a couple of things you can do to recycle set Adamantium, IIRC. One of them, a "molecular rearranger," is why Ultron can make so many spare bodies. https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Molecular_Rearranger

DivineCoffeeBinge posted:I suspect it's because X-Force needing to get resurrected by The Five is a very commonplace occurrence, but like seventy mutants, not so much. Remember, Xavier and Magneto are trying to keep this quiet. They can explain away Yet More Dead X-Force easily, but if they start going "okay we need to bring back these thirty guys and also stop asking what happened to all the spare Gambits", Hope is gonna start asking some questions, y'know? Woke up my girlfriend snickering at 'Yet More Dead X-Force'. So thanks for that. Now all I can think of is the worst krakoan cereal imaginable. Oops, All Dead X-Force.

there must be something bad that happens if orchis actually blows up. there's no way moira is as out of things as she says to charles and magneto. i'm going with she wants to be kidnapped by orchis for some reason. she says she doesn't want to work with machines but /shrug i'll have to drag out my copy of hoxpox to see her timelines, but i wonder if she gets rid of destiny with legion at muir island every time. probably not, but she'd need to kill her somehow. maybe we'll get a flashback sequence! e: oh, destiny says she wants moira to do what she tries to do in the other lives. so yeah, the reason destiny can't come back now might be because moira plans to gently caress mutants up, by getting picked up by orchis. hm Quotey fucked around with this message at 06:44 on Oct 6, 2021 |

Half a thought: Back in the day, late in Claremont's run, Nimrod was able to talk Master Mold into throwing both of them into the Siege Perilous (to become Bastion?) because Nimrod's new way of thinking meant that he'd effectively "mutated." I remember that Claremont very specifically had Nimrod go from acting like a robot to more deliberately human speech patterns over the course of maybe 30 issues in the background, to the point where he had a somewhat deadpan sense of humor. Trying to make friends with the machines doesn't work, but what if Moira's goal is to get Orchis's recreated Nimrod and have that "mutate" the way the original did?

Eh, the way Psylocke is being written in Hellions contradicts becoming Captain on the same month to the point it’s hand waved by editorial in a throwaway speech bubble that it shows the left hand has no idea what the right one is up to. Nanny’s new protégée is just going to be ignored by the other writers now that Zeb Wells is gone

I’d like to retract my statement on not knowing who Steve Orlando is. He got the wrestler Danhausen onto the cover of a Image book. He also co-wrote a story with, and got Danhausen on the cover of the next issue of Heavy Metal. I’m definitely down to see what he does with Marauders.

Wanderer posted:The real twist is going to come from how every time they send Wolverine into the Orchis strike and gently caress it up, they're further funding Orchis to the tune of a few billion dollars' worth of synthetic Adamantium. So years and years ago there was a game on PC called Prey. It had a very confusing and long production (it was supposed to come out in the mid 90s after Quake and Duke Nukem 3D.) But it was a game set in a Dyson sphere that involved portals. They then started to make a sequel where you were a human bounty hunter in the Dyson Sphere which was like a big melting pot of aliens. This game got cancelled and then Prey became a game set aboard a space station with aliens who turned into items like coffee cups. But the proposed plot for Prey 2 eventually was released. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KcV3O_SODk So now I'm imagining Wolverine walking into a room which is full of dead clones of X-Force. This is the furthest they ever get.

Okay I love me some Jeans Greys, but having her pretty effortlessly and literally bichslap a godlike entity like Nightmare is... ...well it's just fine actually, you love to see it! No notes! Of note, I guess, if you care about this sort of thing, is that Jean refers to herself as "Omega-level telepath and telekinetic," which directly contradicts Hickman's silly HoX retcon that she doesn't have Omega-level telekinesis...unless Duggan's word choice is just poor here and he actually meant to say "Omega-level telepath, and also a non-Omega-level telekinetic in addition to that." Let's be real, he probably just forgot about that HoX infographic, which is fine by me.

I thought X-Force was fine this week, I love to see creative utilization of powers by the writers and Black Tom's scenes with Beast were great. Not feeling strongly either way about the Colossus arc and I'm struggling to remember if there were any female characters in the issues with speaking roles who weren't killed in service of male character development and a plot arc. More of the goofy stuff and less of the dour, "mature" comics, please. X-Men was great! Love a holiday issue of a comic and i thought sharing Jean's pitch for being an X-Man was a great piece of storytelling. I'd love to see that scene revisited for other's speeches, I want to hear what Wolverine and Synch pitched. I thought it was also a good use of character history and integrating a lot of disparate plots into singular versions of the characters.

My-I mean Colossus' pink/purple skinned waifu, noooooo, Percy, how could you do this to me-I mean Piotr? The funny thing is, I think this technically means Beast was right to be suspicious of Colossus way back when.

X-Force continues to be bad. Pretty sure nobody was clamoring for Colossus to be used like this. X-Men was great, on the other hand. Good insight into three of the main characters, and it was fun to see Jean smack Nightmare around.

He's suuuper petty and incredibly powerful, not really someone you want to piss off if you have your long term health in mind. Granted none of these people are going to do well in the long term. They are X-Men.

BrianWilly posted:Okay I love me some Jeans Greys, but having her pretty effortlessly and literally bichslap a godlike entity like Nightmare is... I'm fine with it too because Jean being an Omega level telepath only never made a lick of sense to me after the Morrison run, where she's basically on the point of being Magneto but with loving everything instead of being limited to ferrous metals. Plus the fact she had no telepathy at all for years after being revived from her coccoon. For most of the time I've read stories with her, it was always her TK abilities that defined her, not the telepathy.

I mean it never comes up usually, but it seems to me like an entity like Nightmare would probably have real trouble dealing with people who traipse around the astral plane as easy as most of us walk around in reality. It's like with snakes. Snakes can go around gobbling up most small mammals but one day they gently caress with a mongoose and it's like whoa hey
