I genuinely did not know Bastion was purple. (I'm colorblind and it's a fake color; he always looked pink to me, which is equally fake.)

Gaz-L posted:I do want to reiterate something I posted in TV IV after having been criticial about Lenore Zann's voice after the first few episodes: While I stand by the opinion that her voice has noticeably aged more than most of the returning cast, she's also stepped up 1000% in what they've asked her to do in the last two episodes Rogue's been featured in, and more than justified the decision to bring her back. The voice actor for Wolverine is kind of rough because sometimes he sounds super old and sometimes he can get it exactly like the old show.

OnimaruXLR posted:Sadly Ed Asner passed away in 2021 Ah that was it, yeah I could totally see that happening since JK is active in the MCU and a prolific voice actor himself. If he were standing in for (with the best will in the world) one of Haim Saban's stable of non-union VAs it might seem a bit jarring but for someone of Asner's stature that's not an issue.

I'd also be fine with Darin dePaul doing his Simmons impression he uses in the Spider-Man video games.

TwoPair posted:I was (well, still am) very unfamiliar with Bastion, so when I saw the new bad guy was a purple dude messing with technology, I thought it was Feilong from the recent X-Men/Iron Man comics and thought "wow that's a pretty recent pull for this show". I guess little did I know of the X-Men's long history of purple bad guys (that aren't The Purple Man™) I was unfamiliar with what Bastion looked like as well, so I thought he was Feilong for a bit as well.

Yeah, at first I thought it was Feilong, but figured it wasn't by the end of the episode then watched the credits until I saw a character name I didn't recognize.

for nostalgia purposes, looked into those old collectable X-men cards I remembered from the 90s. might fulfill the dream and buy a bunch of complete sets just to look at, they don't seem that pricey either, for the regular sets, no idea about which super rare ones might be out there like the holograms, but the non-hologram sets are pretty cheap

Huh, now that I think about it, Feilong and my theory for who the new cartoon Bastion is kind of have a bit in common specifically post-human cybernetics and a murderous hatred for their mutant parents

The 92 and 94 sets are the two worth owning. They were some of my favorite cards as a kid, and the other X-Men cards don't really hold a candle to those two.

I had a huge case of OG VS System cards. That was a fun game. Too bad the remake of it uses a commander/hero playstyle instead of being really team based.

I used to have a complete set of those Marvel cards that you'd put in binders and it's a 9 card scene. Anyone remember those wonder how much a complete set is

usually part of the bigger set. the 1992 and 1994-1996 fleet or imperl sets are like $30-50 each for like a complete card set of 100 or whatever though I think there's a chase set of hologram cards that are the pricer that's in different price category that's usually sold separately from the other complete lots. i saw this set which looks nice, but for me, looking for more focused card sets like the x-men or spider-man stuff. https://www.ebay.com/itm/2858229650...TAGNM8PC7R6D15Y

Bagley's basically my platonic ideal for Spider-Man art. His style is just the right kind of cartoony (which is also why it was very effective when he drew the flashbacks in Alias, as it felt profoundly messed up for those events to be in that style)

X-Men 97 feels like a lightning in a bottle moment. The people making this KNOW the most popular X-Men are Wolverine, Rogue, and Nightcrawler, yet they use them sparingly unlike most various X-Men properties lean hard into using these guys. When Wolverine actually says something or does something you know it's gold, Rogue's lines are incredible even though you can tell she's aged and Nightcrawler is still cool as poo poo. I grew up reading X-Men cause I didn't have cable so I had to pray that every once in a while on Saturday mornings the wind would blow just right for my antenna to pick up Fox Kids. I still have kept up with them but it always amazes me that for a series that's based on racial tolerance and people being gifted with amazing powers that can be used for good or evil, or a person getting a strange power set that can lead to interesting character development, yet a LOT of the stories involve "Someone from the future which is a huge dystopia is trying to gently caress up the present!" I really hope they can kind of just keep this going and may be revive Spider-Man along with it.

I know at least a few actors from the 90’s Spidey show would probably be willing to return at least (just have JK Simmons play Jonah again in place of the late Ed Asner)

I can't tell if you wrote this before or after seeing the latest episode because Wolverine and Nightcrawler are dope as hell in this one! I find this show hard to believe, it's ridiculously great every single time. Like I'd have to just list every sequence if I wanted to rhyme off the good parts from today's episode. I even got a surprise Spider-Man crossover cameo!
