Daredevil Talks To The Hand; or Who Are The X-Men?

Four scans from Daredevil #506, and, as a special bonus, the latest "We Are The X-Men" teaser.

So, Andy Diggle's schedule after taking over apparently got unexpectedly busy, so a co-writer was brought in to get things back on track; after skipping a month, we're back, with Matt still in Japan, trying to bring together the five regional daiymos under this control (well, four; White Tiger is the Daiymo for the Americas, and she's in his court). One of them is openly defiant, while the other three are secretly manipulating the whole situation to some unknown, evil end.

After a confusing day, Matt tries to get some sleep:

Okay, so not the best dream involving Elektra that might have happened.

Come to think of it, how do his dreams look like that, given that he's blind and relies on radar?

Elsewhere, the Evil Three scheme, are joined by a fourth figure who reports on their plan. They demand to know where Matt suspects anything. Cloaked figure laughs and says that as far as Matt is concerned...

I was expecting it to be Izo, so that surprised me.

Nice to have the book getting back on schedule.

Elsewhere, the fourth teaser (the previous three pairing X-Men with such unlikely figures as Spider-Man, Lyra, and Blade):

	Random observation: so far the "We are the X-men" posters have been one guy and one girl. I don't know if that will continue. (Reply to this)

	Hm, is Elektra even wearing underpants in first one? (Reply to this)

	It's Matt's dream. What do you think? (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	They've also largely been one mutant and one random character that doesn't have a lot to do with the X-Men, so I dunno what's going on there. Seriously, has Electra ever had much to do with the X-folks? (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	You know, if you overlook the fact that Electra's boobs are at hilariously different angles from one another, this is probably the best anatomy we've seen on the X-Men posters. (Reply to this)

	I know she's tangled with Wolverine (then again, who hasn't these days) and stole Northstar's body when he died. Other than that, I dunno (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	Second scan, I wish I could unsee Elektra's penis bulge. (Reply to this)

	That has to have been Matt's most non erotic dream about Elektra ever. (Reply to this)

	Er...suspenders of disbelief and all that, but isn't it physically impossible to smell something in a dream? (Reply to this)

	no subject colonel_green 2010-04-14 06:31 pm UTC (link)
	Possibly meant to indicate that it wasn't a dream, as the end suggests. Or Matt's enhanced senses are just that good. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	Nah, it's just very uncommon. I've only experienced it once myself, that I can remember (I hardly ever remember my dreams as is). (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

She was given the Elektra treatment toward the tail-end of Brubaker's run, but Black Tarantula used his healing powers to remove the Hand's impurity. The two of them are supposed to be undercover with Matt, with everyone else thinking they're still loyal Hand agents - from this, I assume either Tarantula's healing didn't really work, or she was subborned again at a later date.

	I'm not sure what you mean by that, but the Hand's ability to revive/control people like what this appears to be is quite longstanding. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	Something that bothers me in 98% of flashback scenes is that the person remembering the event is shown from the outside in the flashback when really we should be getting person's eye view. (Reply to this)

	It's the way certain 70's music sounds. Pornos couldn't get decent soundtrack music, so they had poor generic crap. It was an era of famous porn series though, so people remember them. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)
