It's entirely possible that the first X-men comic I owned was the Dark Phoenix trade, and even if it wasn't I'll just say that it was. Now my first exposure to the X-men period was almost definitely Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends.

Yeah, I think I know what Williams was going for in those first few GSB issues, but it just didn't work, and I don't blame anybody who checked out early. That being said Amazing Mary Jane is also a fun read, so she's had more hits than misses.

She definitely had a power dampening necklace at the start of Mr. and Mrs. X because she asks Beast to turn it into a tennis bracelet.

Blockhouse posted:this Franklin Richards thing is basically that bit about how Squirrel Girl isn't a mutant and a doctor legally signed a binding document confirming she was not but entirely serious. It also reminds me of how Gwenpool retconned herself into being a mutant at the end of her most recent miniseries.

I can't point to any one story and say "Slott stole that from Doctor Who" but the fairytale vibe that pervaded a lot of the stories in general, and Dawn's arc in particular, felt very much like something Davies or Moffat would've written for the Doctor Who revival.

My main point was they both won RoY and socked a record number of dingers in the process.

I'll say this for Aaron's Avengers, it does not want for plot threads. I'm interested in seeing if there's something that links all of them together or if instead he'll keep wrapping them up one by one, like he seemed to do with Coulson and the Squadron Supreme in Heroes Reborn, and kind of seems to be with the Atlantis and Red Widow machinations in the current World War She-Hulk storyline.

Synesthesian Fetish posted:Having a little argument with my friend but is the "SPIDER-MAN #10 HELLFIRE GALA VARIANT COVER BY STEPHANIE HANS" character Firestar? The star in the middle and the mask makes me think yes and she is connected to Spidey. They also have Black Cat and MJ on the cover of "AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #29 HELLFIRE GALA VARIANT COVER BY DAVID NAKAYAMA" so I'm going to lean towards yes it is Firestar. She's on fire, of course it's Firestar. Yes, it took me a while to figure that out.

I do get the overly grim complaint with Taylor's Red since iirc, it involved Cassandra Nova putting a whammy on the entire planet to genocide mutants or something. That said, it also had Gabby call Namor Ablantis, so imo 10/10 no notes.
