Hickman loves the New Mutants. If he doesn't want to write the X-Men it's probably because of what an editorial clusterfuck they always seem to be. They'd have to give him the Morrison/Whedon treatment.

So 2-3 years of hands off good stories that are quickly swpet under the rug the next month?

Not to sound dense, but I do not understand what that guy is pissed about when he says Loeb says there is only 2 genders, then Cloak fans and Dagger fans. Like, the way that is written, it sounds like a joke, that you can only be a Dagger fan or a Cloak fan and nothing in between. But then it says someone was mis-gendered but gave no context. Did he accuse someone of being a Dagger fan when they were really a Cloak fan? Those tweets are loving confusing.

"The Two Genders" is a joke/meme that has been around for 2ish years. Here have a buzzfeed clickbait with a bunch of stolen tweets: https://www.buzzfeed.com/hattiesoykan/pictures-that-accurately-define-the-gender-binary

I don't mean to suggest that the two...things?...are comparably bad or that it would even matter if they are ('cuz playing oppression Olympics is obvs the most super funnest thing to do in the world ever). I'm gay and Asian and just for the record Loeb could get bent for all I care, but it genuinely just never occurred to me that the two genders joke is appropriating someone's issues because the communities I'm involved in just...kinda toss it out there all the time for memes and giggles, specifically in response to the uptight exclusionists who keep maintaining that there are only two genders.

This is how I have always seen the joke used.

Nicieza is really one of those writers you just want to leave alone and do his own thing for like fifty issues and then come back to. I'm still fond of New Warriors, even if I haven't re-read it in ages (and know some of it won't hold up).

Agreed. His uninterrupted runs are usually really enjoyable comics.

Didn't Simonson do that bonkers mashup of RoboCop vs Terminators? I seem to remember Alex strapping into a rocket or a nuke and blowing everything to kingdom come.

My inner 12 year old would love to see an R rated movie of that.

That comic ruled and the twist that robocop was the basis for skynet or the terminators ruled.

I feel like there's enough people still out there that consume any and all zombie material no matter the quality. Like Days Gone isn't very good but it sold a fuckton of copies.

War of the Realms never tried to be more than what it was, all the Marvel heroes fighting Thors stuff.

Days Gone is good though.

I remember marvel zombies vs ash was good.

Definitely. Annihilation was so much better than Civil War. I think the biggest problem is that they are quarterly now, so any excitement they used to generate was boiled away. If Marvel could just let what are currently events just be stories in normal titles and save having a bespoke miniseries with tie in minis for something actually big once every year or two they would be more impactful.

Absolute Carnage has no business being more than an arc in Venom.

DC did the small events for a year or 2 with the latest relaunch and most of those stories were good, but alas the money machine didnt make enough "brrrrrrrr" noises.
