X-Babies #1

[gargoylekitty.insanejournal.com]

Before Superman/Batman gave us the Lil' Leaguers, there were the X-Babies, who now have a new mini.



So yeah, we get some cute dino-fighting. While I'm pretty sure this would sell without much of a plot, there is one. So after the fight the X-Babies escape, again, to find the reason they haven't seen any cameras around lately was because they'd been replaced.


Needless to say, they aren't too pleased.

Though that's all I can show, so a line-up to end it.

Wolverine's expression in that fourth panel makes the book.

Kurt's makes it twice.

Everyone has a different reaction to goatse.

All it needs is "WTF is this shit?" and it's gold.

Overload from the cuteness!! Lil woverine eating the vegetable so adorable!

[mugiwara.insanejournal.com]

These colors in the cartoon... Are they making fun of Tiny Titans?
Anyway, those chibi, tiny, baby things fail to make me laugh. Or even smile.

[afghanant.wordpress.com (from insanejournal.com)]

X-Babies have been bringing all kinds of awesome since Uncanny X-Men Annual #12 (1988). Though I miss the way they use to look - http://afghanant.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/xbabies.png

X-Baby Storm with mohawk has got to be the most awesome thing I have seen this week

[zegim.insanejournal.com]

Nah, the colors of Tiny Titans are solid, not glossy.

It looks like a lot more like a parody of Muppets Baby. And my age is showing with that.

[thokstar.insanejournal.com]

More Baby Looney Toons than Muppet Babies. Muppet Babies wouldn't be that boring, and didn't have the chibiness that Baby Looney Toons does.

[brandiweed.livejournal.com (from insanejournal.com)]

The pastel colors would fit either Muppet Babies or Baby Looney Tunes; Tiny Titans is more in favor of bright primary and secondary colors.

[kamino_neko.insanejournal.com]

Also, very basic colours without the high gloss look these have.

[kamino_neko.insanejournal.com]

Oops, I see, now, that that's been mentioned.

[kijikun.insanejournal.com]

So many icons to be made, so little time.

And I just want to snuggle Little Kitty.

[zegim.insanejournal.com]

Seriously. X-Babies seems like it is a source of endless icons.

[vignettelante.insanejournal.com]

The line "Man oh man, I feel like I'm punching a giant chicken. I love it" makes me laugh.

[his_spiffyness.insanejournal.com]

So, all of the Star Comics line (except Alf) was created by Mojo?

[alexlucard.insanejournal.com]

Alf is along with the other STAR comics in the scans!

Remember Alf, Bart? He's back...in Mojo form.

[icon_uk.insanejournal.com]

Cyclops in dungaree-shorts is way too cute.

They really should be his official uniform...

My Chibi Nightcrawler is STILL cuter though...

[sleepymax.insanejournal.com]

That icon is amazing! I must know the artist's name.

[icon_uk.insanejournal.com]

Chap by the name of Sonny Strait (http://asylums.insanejournal.com/scans_daily/975022.html#cutid1), can't recommend his work enough!

He also has a DeviantArt (http://sonion.deviantart.com/gallery/) page.

[jelly_ace.insanejournal.com]

I was thinking of buying this for nostalgia's sake. I my most favorite (and one of my first) comics when I was a kid was a TPB of the X-Babies and Excalibur. I dunno where that TPB is now. I like the babies on that one better.

[thandrak.insanejournal.com]

Wait, the TVs. That's Spider-Ham... Top Dog... Prince Roy? That's the Star line there!

[pyrotwilight.insanejournal.com]

They're supposed to play a part in the story too from what I hear.

[long_silence.insanejournal.com]

They show up on the last page of the issue.

[sinisterlink.insanejournal.com]

I still giggle everytime I see little Zabu. He's so friggin cute.

[nagaoka.insanejournal.com]

I know right? Me-OWR!

[menagerie.insanejournal.com]

Spider-Ham and Alf!! This whole thing is an 80's flashback! :D

[janegray.insanejournal.com]

No matter how cute this is, I just can't enjoy it. I'm still bitter that they cancelled Mini Marvels for this. I loved Mini Marvels :(

[kamino_neko.insanejournal.com]

This isn't Superhero Squad. It's something else entirely.

[janegray.insanejournal.com]

But I heard that Mini Marvels got canceled to make room for the X-babies?

[cainofdreaming.insanejournal.com]

Nah, this (http://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/ProductsByBrand.htm?BR=820&SBR=450) was the reason. I guess Mini Marvels didn't translate that well into action figure format.

(Action figure angle is totally just my speculation, but SHQ was the reason that went around when cancellation was announced. Don't think the X-babies mini ever came up. I mean, it's just a mini, no merchandising included or anything.)

[janegray.insanejournal.com]

Thanks for letting me know! :D

*can finally enjoy X-babies with no bitterness*

[batcookies.insanejournal.com]

No, it was canceled for (spit) Superhero Squad.

[janegray.insanejournal.com]

Thanks for the info :D

[long_silence.insanejournal.com]

Personally I think I'd prefer a Mini-Marvels cartoon.

[faythalie.insanejournal.com]

Aargh, I couldn't resist!
I just HAD to buy it!

[kingrockwell]

I want Baby Zabu to look more like a kitten :(

[freeman333.insanejournal.com]

"Oh my God, y'all! I'm punchin' a giant chicken!"

[psychop_rex.insanejournal.com]

Is this posted anywhere else on the 'net that you know of? I ask because my computer is mashing up the scans like Play-Doh, and as I am a big X-Baby fan, I aim to correct that situation.
