Darthemed posted:The guy on the right is Mickey Fondozzi, a recurring mob mook who serves as a handy tool for Frank. He was the guy who kept asking Nomad which superhero he was, in the ride with pouty Daredevil in the passenger seat. Oh, this is the issue that lead to the horrible counter-"humiliation" in Frank Tieri's Wolverine. Basically, Tieri's favorite character Wolvie was made to look like a fool by Frank, so Tieri had him turn the tables in the most mature way possible. You see, Frank Castle enjoying gay porn is funnier and more humiliating than getting stuck under a steamroller! I'm glad we've mostly moved on from this kind of nonsense.

Nilbop posted:I'd ask why Cyclops has a bunch of puppies floating around his head and why Havok is dressed like Jon-Mikl Thor, Cyclops's ex-wife and Havok's ex-love interest Madeline Pryor (clone of Jean Grey, mother of Cable, occasional demonic sorceress) is back and has kidnapped and immobilized them both. Havok is dressed up in her old stripperific costume because it amuses her, and Cyclops is surrounded by puppies so he can't do eye-blasts. EDIT: Correction: It's actually Havok's costume from when he was Madeline's consort briefly during the original Inferno, when she was turning the Earth into a demonic hellscape.

Claremont is known to have a thing for dominant, strong women (also clear indicators of him being familiar with the kinkier club scene of the time), which led to some real fetishistic stuff but also female characters with significantly more agency and independence than others during that era. He did also just write women as people, which was more than could be said of some other writers at the time. I'd read Claremont's female characters over, say, Marv Wolfman's. Nothing wrong with having kinks, nothing necessarily wrong with writing while slightly horny. Claremont was just a little bit obvious at times. Some of his works have aged like milk and he's cranky old man nowadays, but he was still an overall positive influence on the mainstream superhero comics scene in many ways.

Push El Burrito posted:Peter David is a fun dude. I talked to him at a convention and he's just a giant nerd about comics. This is not necessarily the place for this topic, but it should be noted that some years ago at a convention, Peter David went on a racist rant towards Romani people where he spouted some basic rear end blood libel ideas. To my knowledge, he hasn't recanted. The US has a relatively small Romani population, so that can fly under the radar sometimes, but as eurotrash, I find that really off-putting. On a less serious note, while I like some (not all) of his jokes, I'm not a huge fan of how he will twist characters to fit his comedic ideas. E.g. The characterization in X-Factor Investigations especially for female characters felt a bit off to me.

Karma specifically has the power to take control of other people telepathically. Rogue is suggesting with Karma's powers she could be controlling Remy like a puppet in the bedroom.

Bucnasti posted:Isn't Krakoa a mutant itself? The current continuity says: Not a mutant: "Krakoa, having been part of the whole that was once Okkara, and with Okkara being an essential part of the Celestial-designed mechanism called the Machine" Whatever that means. Though the recent Marauders storyline kind of makes that messier.

glitchwraith posted:Not too familiar with the character, but Moondragon did recently fuse with her alternate universe counterpart, which may have helped her emotional maturity. Unless both characters where emotionally stunted, in which case I got nothing. I might have been a bit harsh on her here, I just remember her early appearances in which her defining feature was being a manipulative callous rear end in a top hat. She might have changed her ways since then, especially since she's no longer being possessed by a dragon. Boom Boom being in that group was also kinda funny.

Keromaru5 posted:I'm honestly kind of digging the implication (or maybe it's just my inference) that Sinister is so old and behind on literary trends that he missed Austen's evolution from mildly popular books to absolute literary legend. Very Mr. Burns of him. That is not actually Sinister, per se. That's Doctor Stasis. Nathaniel Essex made three versions of himself, one to explore the potential of mutations (Sinister), and similarly Orbis Stellaris for cosmic power and Doctor Stasis for transhumanism. Comic books!
