AoA!Nightcrawler really isn't 616!Nightcrawler

[salinea]

And he wants us to know it.

(warning for mild sexist language)

Back in UXF19 when Logan told the school staff about X-Force:




And now







And for something completely different:

I want the fanfics in which the whole Agency X plays D&D.

Yeah... Deadpool is pretty much spot on there with what his dnd class is.

Dual wielding proficiency, mutants as his favored enemy, alas though, wisdom score is too low to learn magic.

So, AoA Nightcrawler had a run in with the Crimson Dawn?

Pretty art.

[protogarrett]

Deathlok got quite the upgrade. Also, didn't they kill baby apocalypse?

[nyadnar17]

The sentence above me is awesome.


Anyone else glad to see Deadpool having a drink with his peers and coworkers and not being treated like a pariah? I mean it looks like he might actually be making real friends !

........I miss the old Kurt, this guy doesn't know how to have fun. I know alternate dimension but still I need more happy blue pirate/ninja elf's in my life.

What stands out to me is the, "I've seen too much to believe in any love of God" quote.

I half-suspected the reason Marvel backgrounded him for years and then killed him off was Kurt's hyper-religiousity, that the idea of a demonic-looking character being the most overt mouthpiece for Christian values (the actual teachings -- love, forgiveness, self-sacrifice and etc., not the fundamentalist tripe) in their canon was a bit too "perverse" for certain "modern" hyper-sensetive um… sensibilities in the commercial sphere.

So now (at the moment that Marvel has swapped out berzerker-rage Wolverine for kinder, gentler, more family-friendly Wolverine) we have angry, hateful, kick-ass, hyper-masculine replacement Nightcrawler, who explicitly states he is not effeminate or spiritual while drinking beer and complaining the danger room isn't dangerous enough. Cool -- why show (characterization), when you can just tell (dialogue)? (snark snark snark!)

I wonder what Cockrum would think. Heck, I wonder what Claremont thinks.

Sigh... AoA Nightcrawler was interesting as a short term example of how Kurt could go "wrong", a dark mirror as it were. I have no real interest in seeing him as a continuing character, especially

I may have to post some being-awesome Nightcrawler just for the hell of it.

[midnightvoyager]

GodDAMN, he's obnoxious and annoying. Do not want. GTFO. Etc.

[suzene]

Yup, this is everything I feared it would be.

I still have a problem with seeing Wade in any sort of team, but daaaayuum, this looks great~

[darrylayo]

This is a wonderfully written scene, but then the problem is that I've read a lot of Deadpool comics in my day, since before "THE CIRCLE CHASE," and I swear on a stack of bibles that this is NOT Wade Wilson.

But in itself, this is a lovely scene.
