Hey, Cru.

Wait, what?

[colonel_green.insanejournal.com]

I know Reed's said he's wanted to do this story for years, but he was waiting for an opening when she wasn't locked into something the X-Office was doing.

[long_silence.insanejournal.com]

Isn't she in the Dark X-men mini fighting Nate Grey?

[colonel_green.insanejournal.com]

Yeah, but she's one of Osborn's apparatchiks, so she's a villain and in the employ of the MU's overlord, so I imagine it's easier to fit in.

[naela.insanejournal.com]

Wait wait wait...

Nate Grey? WHAT!?

[xdoop.insanejournal.com]

He's coming back in Dark X-Men.

DARK X-MEN #2 (of 5)
Written by PAUL CORNELL
Penciled by LEONARD KIRK
Cover by SIMONE BIANCHI
X-MAN, A.K.A. NATE GRAY IS BACK! Sadly, the X-Men that he first encounters are Norman Osborn’s X-Men and they don’t like the idea of an Omega-level mutant that won’t tow the company line. Do they have a chance of defeating X-Man? And if they don’t, what does that mean to Osborn’s agenda?

I thought maybe she'd gone all Kree again...

[ulf_boehnke.insanejournal.com]

That was my first thought, too.

[halloweenjack.insanejournal.com]

Ditto--reminded me of that blue Kree who was Nova for a bit.

[pyrotwilight.insanejournal.com]

...I hope that's actually Cru.

[trueredorion.insanejournal.com]

I wonder if they'll bring up the fact Mystique beat one of Carol's boyfriends to death.

[xdoop.insanejournal.com]

Wow.

[01d55.insanejournal.com]

Well played.

[scottyquick.insanejournal.com]

Oh God that's hilarious.

[bluefall.insanejournal.com]

Actually, you know, all joking aside, that's a snazzy cover. Can we get Renaud doing interiors?

[foxhack.insanejournal.com]

... Yeah.

[shanejayell.insanejournal.com]

Say what?

[mullon.insanejournal.com]

I didn't really think they would have any animosity toward each other, but whatever.

[kusonaga.insanejournal.com]

Considering Mystique has attempted to kill her a few times?

[mullon.insanejournal.com]

She's tried to kill lots of people a few times.

[ashtoreth.insanejournal.com]

Did Mystique tell them, "There is DEATH between us, Danvers!"

[halloweenjack.insanejournal.com]

Mistakes were made.

[v_various.insanejournal.com]

what comic/issue is your icon from? I must have it.

[kusonaga.insanejournal.com]

I have no idea, sorry.

[sir_mikael.insanejournal.com]

I'm actually pretty sure that Mystique beat Carols boyfriend to death while looking like Carol and taped it for Carol to see. That was in Mystiques pre-x-villain days. And she raised Rogue as a terrorist. So yeah, I would guess Carol really isn't terribly fond of Raven.

[iondan.insanejournal.com]

I wish Moonstone as Ms. Marvel had lasted longer.

[kusonaga.insanejournal.com]

This title is actually going to break fifty!?

[akodo_rokku.insanejournal.com]

Nah, it'll just get there and be cancelled.

[arilou_skiff.insanejournal.com]

Please not? I love Ms. Marvel.

Which probably means Marvel will cancel it just to spite me, of course.

[abbadie.insanejournal.com]

I just started reading it, so count the days until cancellation.

Hey, I've killed Shogun Warriors, Godzilla, Micronauts, Power Man/Iron Fist, Excalibur, Captain Britain, Thunderstrike, Darkhold (yeah, I confess to that one) by reading them regularly... my record was the original run of Micronauts, it got cancelled the very month after I mailed my subscription check. So Carol is doomed (again).

Could be worse; you should see the number of mags that have folded with the very issue where I've published something. >_>

[proteus_lives.insanejournal.com]

Raven is the ultimate cosplayer!

[espanolbot.insanejournal.com]

Ah! A Red Lantern! Run!

[jcbaggee.insanejournal.com]

She does look an awful lot like Laira in that cover.

[jlbarnett.insanejournal.com]

I never realized they had issues outside of Rogue

[ashtoreth.insanejournal.com]

Oh darn it. I thought Carol was throwbacking to her Kree heritage.
