Would this be considered Ironic?

So the "create your own wedding" variant of Astonishig X-Men #51 has been release.




While the Phil Noto art is nice, most of these marriages ended horribly.

As soon as I saw this I thought...

Charles and Lilandra - Not actually married AFAIK
Jan and Hank - Divorced, then wife died
Pietro and Crystal - Divorced
Vision and Wanda - Divorced (to say the least)
Scott and Jean - Were pretty close to divorce when she died.
Namor and Marrina - She died, then seems to have come back with a completely different personality, and I don't think they're together any more.

Luke and Jessica -Together
Reed and Sue - Together, though why divorce never happened after Civil War was never entirely clear.

Not exactly encouraging is it?

I have faith in Reed and Sue. For all of his brains Reed sometimes actually has a clue what is important.

Reed's dependence on Sue is very important (and the best FF writers highlight this). Reed has SEEN literal versions of himself without Sue to keep him grounded become megalomaniac villains. Reed has SEEN alt-future versions of the FF in which he and Sue are together (in the ones they're not - everything went to hell). Reed has been killed off in the comics (except not really) and for over a year in the comics Sue would not give up on him and believe him dead despite the fact Namor was hogging her every step telling her to let go. Outside of Civil War-era Reed, the current crop of Marvel writers I think have done a good job with the Sue/Reed marriage and its importance. Hickman especially was my favorite (along with Waid) of the recent FF writers because he didn't even bother to go along with the normal Namor tempting Sue route (even when Reed was distracted) but instead had Sue being dismissive of Namor and his come-ons (which considering he's been basically a stalker for decades makes perfect sense).

Well, Sue and Reed went on leave for a while to work on their marriage, leaving Storm and Black Panther to take their places on the FF. Thus putting Storm one team closer to being a member of every super-group in the Marvel universe. (Beast still has her beat.)

Why are Tony and Thor on that picture? Were they married to each other?

Only in dreams, friend...only in dreams...

Avengers marriages: actually cross products!

[lieut_kettch]

Of course not. Tony's saving himself for STEVE.

"Charles and Lilandra - Not actually married AFAIK"

I believe the term was annulment--it happened during Morrison's run, where Cassandra Nova, using Xavier's body, manipulated Lilandra's mind and made her go a little crazy. Last time they saw each other after the incident, Illandra was trying to assassinate Xavier.

Charles and Lilandra - Not actually married AFAIK

Not sure if they've had an Earth marriage, but he was given the title of Chief Consort, or something like that, by the Shi'ar during one of the Jim Lee space stories. So he might've had a Shi'ar ceremony behind the scenes.
