Looking for a specific page or two. I think it's post civil war, but pre One More Day. Spider-Man and MJ are living in Avenger's tower, Peter is missing, or gravely injured or assumed dead, several people are trying to comfort MJ and Wolverine comes in and starts hitting on her. She smacks him and threatens to kill him. On the surface it's a real shithead maneuver, but he explains that with his attitude he helped snap her out of her funk and gave her something else to focus on rather than her dying husband.

It's not exactly "touching", but Wolverine kind of helping out in the only way he can.

Look, Logan is a contender for World Champion of Bad Decisions, he's doing his best to help the only way he knows how: by making more bad decisions.

E: I *get* what they're going for with it, but it doesn't really work. Still sweet of him to try, at least.

It's dumb as poo poo if you actually read X-Men comics with Wolverine in them. He's a positive mentor to many young women without ever being creepy or weird.

This isn't the piracy thread and it's a can of worms so let's please move on. In general if I see a page or a panel with a watermark I just edit it out on my own and edit the original post rather than probate it, which I've just gone ahead and done with the post quoting the original DIE post. I usually catch these pretty fast but I slept in today and then took my time eating a bagel on the porch.

As for DIE, one of the big set pieces of the second to last issue really got to me. The premise of the comic is basically a twist on the old 80's D&D cartoon: a bunch of kids got sucked into their ttrpg campaign 30 years ago and really had a bad time. Now they're all middle-aged and have moved on with their lives, until they get sucked in again. One of them, a guy named Ash with a wife and a nice house, manifests in the DIE world as a woman. How he feels about this is one of the recurring threads in the series. This all comes to a head when, in the midst of a climactic Tolkien rift, the party is barred by a big scary balrog-version of Ash's character, who they all quickly suss out is sort of an avatar of repression. So it's time for Ash to confront that repression.

I just wanted to thank you for sharing this here. I finally had the time to read through it and it was a hell of a trip.

This is gonna require some set up but hang with me. Fantastic Four: Life Story #6 is a story where there is no sliding time scale and the FF/the whole Marvel Universe have aged in real time since their introduction in the 60s. It's now 2016 and Dr. Doom is staging a big global takeover with some more powerful than usual Doombots (turns out he got his hands on some vibranium) and he's gotten pretty far along. Some younger heroes like Miles Morales and Ironheart and Captain Marvel are trying to fight Doom to little success. Which means Susan Storm decides she has to do something. Oh also Johnny's dead and Reed's in a vegetative state due to other adventures





but she has little help getting it. Anyway, the heroes are making a stand and it looks like they're gonna get smoked until Sue, the Thing, Black Panther (Shuri), and Iron Man show up and help everyone waste all the Doombots attacking Symkaria. Doom gets real pissed when he gets the news and shows up in person with a much bigger army.







I was flip-flopping between putting this here or in the badass thread but in the end it is always inspiring to see Captain America deck a fascist.

Well you know it's an obvious fantasy because the previous generation actually wants to help fix a problem they created.

Is that like Doom Jr. or something? That's a lot of contractions for Doom. Doom would use only Doomtractions.

They resurrected the original Thunderbird, who iconically died like a chump in his first adventure. His brother's been through a lot.

It's a drat good book!


EDIT: From the same issue:


Rahne's also had a rough time, as she's had to deal with coexisting with her demigod-child's murderer (Guido "former king of hell" Carusela), learning that the child might be alive but can't be located, and being manipulated by The Shadow King. Also, she and Dani are soulmates though their relationship status is ambiguous.

I think it was this very thread where I discovered Vinland Saga for the first time, and now we're back.

It is very difficult to convey why this moment hits as hard as it does (maybe not so much if you don't have the full context) without going through the entire plot of Vinland Saga, but to summarize: Thorfinn is at the end of a very, very long journey strewn with victims of his personal vendetta, one of whom is Hild. Even better is this moment just... comes out of nowhere. It isn't prompted by some kind of grand gesture or personal sacrifice, it's just an average afternoon. It's the tipping point of a long, slow culmination of so much, the recognition of which is difficult to overstate.

Full-on lump in my throat time.

Chapter 191, Right to Left.
