Xavier is just adhering to a strict non-fraternization policy in the work place. The man clearly has principles.

Pair Storm up with Doom. He's had a creepy obsession with her before. It would be interesting to see her try to match wits with him (and fail).

Nyeehg posted:I recently got nostalgic for an old X-men annual published in the UK I used to own that contained a random collection of strips. One I distinctly remember was a story in which the blackbird crashes in a snow storm and leaves Cyclops, Storm and Xavier stranded. Naturally, Scott's visor is lost, Xavier's chair is trashed and Storm is ill. This was the first X-men comic I ever read and I really want to revisit it. This is X-Men Unlimited #1

Wanderer posted:I tend to agree with Paul O'Brien: Austen is as bad as it gets. It helps that there haven't been quite as many X-Men writers as one would expect, since so much of the body of work is just Claremont, but Austen is easily the worst writer to ever be given an extended run, and there's a big gap between him and whoever's second worst. I'd argue it's Lobdell, and Lobdell wasn't that bad. (Michael Higgins's Uncanny X-Men Annual set during Atlantis Attacks is really bad in kind of a hilarious way, but it's one issue.) Does Claremont's 2nd run not count as a "writer" in it's own? Because I would say that was easily the second worst. Lobdell was just very mediocre with very few original bright spots (mainly AoA).

The Marvel/Fox feud nonsense is the dumbest poo poo ever from a fan's perspective. It's a shame that Marvel's movie success and general rise in awareness has lead to the slow death of my favorite characters which significantly carried the company for two decades on their own popularity.

I some how doubt all of this can be pinned on just one bad guy (Perlmutter). I'm willing to bet that the next guy to take over would likely follow the same strategy. Because from a marketing and brand synergy standpoint, it makes some sense from a purely profit driven mindset. Why promote properties that you can't monetize in movie form? It doesn't really hurt to add Wolverine/Storm/Cylops to some Marvel themed skinner box game, but it doesn't help either. Movie characters and characters they have potential movie rights for will always take priority and there is an endless supply of them to introduce to the general public. Disney is going to play the long game of slowly weening fans off X-Men/FF and more towards Avengers/Spiderman brand characters starting with non-comic mass market products.

HIJK posted:I'm just not sure how effective this will be since the Inhumans are the most uninteresting characters I've read in a long time. But the comics ultimately don't matter much. Movies are a much wider mass-appeal vector and provide the medium to re-invent these characters with a $200 million budget and all the focal groups and design committees that brings. Marvel/Disney have already taken boring lesser known characters and spun them into gold.

Aren't most mutants suppose to be Morlock-league level hideous with lame or gross powers? The Avengers as the public know them are like exact opposite of that. They're beautiful unblemished white people decorated in the accouterments of patriotism or sexy silicon valley stylish tech.

Does he mainly trace just the faces though? I only vaguely recall the faces sticking out as highly noticeable and often exact carbon copies of each other. Surely there's no correlation between super hero poses and sex positions...

I like how the example of his tracing included tracing an action figure, because that's how I would describe his art. It's like posing scenes with action figures. They can be positioned competently enough but articulation is limited and the facial expressions are fixed, never exactly fitting the context of what's happening on the page. Does he just trace as lazy short-hand? Or is that all he is capable of? He obviously has to do some embellishing. I'm just wondering what a full original piece of high effort art looks like from him. Are there any verified examples of this? Edit:  I can't just not see the porn hiding behind every image.

X-Men also has a brand new line of action figures out soon with rumors of additional ongoing waves to follow. If they start showing up in video games again, I'll stop worrying completely. Now if only the F4 could be so lucky.

Last year there was a Marvel t-shirt at Target which in the display featured Cap, Ironman, Thor, Spiderman, Hulk, AND Wolverine. I thought cool, an X-Man, finally. I bought the shirt, but when I got home, I found that Wolverine was actually replaced with Luke Cage on the real shirt.
