Tini Howard is real loving good, she wrote the Thanos mini-series that wrapped recently, she's writing Strikeforce which thus far has been rad as hell, and the Death's Head mini which, see above. She hasn't done a ton with Marvel yet but I have loved everything she's written so far.

It just seems like how that would happen when you have all the mutants just milling about a big-rear end, developing island. You just grab the people in arm's reach and get to your mischief. I'm all loving for it.

I'm pretty sure my first one was X-Men 269 the one with Rogue battling a zombie-looking Carol Danvers. But it might have been one of the X-Men/FF crossover books, the one with Franklin crying on the cover. I have really distinct memories of those two, actually the FF/X-Men one I always found vaguely upsetting as a kid and when I reread that series in my 30's that emotional memory really felt fresh. So yeah, one of those two.

Little Mac posted:After that my next comic book was the Marvel Holiday Special 1991 which loving owned because Santa kills the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Oh poo poo, this just made me remember that Santa is a Mutant, not just a Mutant, but the most powerful one ever recorded. Where is Santa's workshop on Krakoa? I demand a Santa series.

Well that's a gigantic Havoc in the back judging from the headgear, the egg in the middle is Nanny, has to be Nanny it's an egg and Nanny is the only egg so Orphanmaker must be in front of her even though neither of them are mutants (I guess the egg could be Sugar Man maybe but he loving sucks), the leaping clawed woman is Feral, that's Sinister's cape, gloved dude in the front is probably Vulcan, so that just leaves dude behind Vulcan and the woman with the katana which has to be either Kate Pryde in demon ninja mode or Psylocke. I can't think of any other X-women who used a katana.

It's 100% Feral. As accurate as my predictions have been thus far, I did not expect Scalphunter. I'd been kind of hoping it would be Maverick because for some unknown reason (the Jim Lee trading card) I've always kinda liked him.

BrianWilly posted:But like, over in New Mutants they're literally starving babies to show off how extreme and dangerous the new threat whose name I can't remember is. By comparison Wolverine and Quire getting killed comes across almost quaint. Just like old times y'know. Holy poo poo, I didn't even catch Quire the first time around.

gimme the GOD drat candy posted:i'm pretty curious about what happened to fantomex. did xavier switch to a clone as soon as one was available, or is there another xavier running around? What happened was LOOK OVER THERE!if we ignore it, it will go away on its own. Personally, I'm fine with ignoring it but that resolution didn't really work for me in the first place so  Actually I can't remember, is Fantomex actually a mutant or wasn't he genetically engineered in the World, or is it both?

Leah Williams and David Baldeón are doing an X-Factor book. It's a team who investigate mutant deaths for The Five before the resurrection protocols and I am here for it. Northstar, Eye-boy, Rachel Grey, Prodigy, Polaris, and Daken, "Wolverine’s disaster son" " because the team needed a 'fucky thot enforcer.'"

GSB was a really rough start but I think ended well, it's not her most successful work but X-Tremists was absolutely incredible. Her X-Men Black issue about Emma was also really good.

On the one hand, it's not quite "oh poo poo!" level, though I do think it's an interesting concept. On the other hand, it's Vita Ayala so I'm in.

Rogue's back-and-forth would bother me less but for the fact that it's happened so many times and is not always well explained, if explained at all. The current state of her powers is satisfying because a story was built around it, but that was true of the time she gained control over her powers and lost Danvers' powers and then something, something Wonder Man and everything's reset! It's the nature of comics and X-Men in particular but hopefully she'll stay at this status quo moving forward, because drama about her powers is overdone and dull, it's emotional drama I want around her!

Goddamn, Marauders is on fire. What a run so far. New Mutants? Delightful as hell! Bobby is so gleefully terrible and for some reason I really want him and Deathbird to work out. What a time to be an X-reader. All-New Wolverine and X-Men: Red notwithstanding, I can't think of how long it's been since the line was firing on all cylinders like this (Fallen Angels never happened.)

Now that it's been brought up, it seems really strange to me that Longshot hasn't been retconed into a mutant since his son is and he's a clone of his son. Also I love that this is an actual question that I can raise. loving comic books are the best.

That the X-Men and Dracula/vampires have such a long-term, ongoing history is a constant source of delight to me. On top of everything else they have to deal with,. every few years there's vampire bullshit they get dragged into and it's glorious.

Cyclops didn't study math, part of his mutant power is being bananas good at geometry. Captain Kate did get some sort of degree during MechaniX and ran for Alderman but I don't remember if her field of study was specified. Havoc and Polaris were studying geophysics not archaeology.

He's also on an island with a woman who was a literal Valkyrie, many faiths (just those two) have afterlives that one can actually verify in the 616.
