How They Met Their Father: Wanda and Pietro

2013-03-10T02:25:53Z

Posted by: starwolf_oakley

majingojira's second AVENGERS ACADEMY post showed Quicksilver saying "Magneto put Wanda and me in situations where we would rescue humans, the humans would turn against us, and Magneto would 'save' us and say humans are bad."

A very good example can be seen in issues #4 of the 1995 "Professor Xavier and the X-Men" series.

Teen Titans #17 - "Grey Matters"

2013-02-27T22:44:51Z

Posted by: perletwo

- or, "Prologue to A Tale of Light and Dark," which is the Titans' next big arc, apparently. 3 whole pages and 2 partial pages for a total of 4, and man did I have a hard time cutting it down to just that. This is a bridge issue, tying up the Death of the Family crossover story and putting pieces into play for this Light and Dark thing, so there's a lot going on here.

( Can we go back to the awkward silence? )

Can't swear to it, but I think I may be looking forward to the War of Light and Dark thing.

LOSH's Chameleon Girl Primer part 2: Newly Wed or Nearly Dead?

2012-06-11T05:33:35Z

Posted by: perletwo

OK, so the work on this primer kind of got away from me, mea culpa. But I now have it complete up to the current "The Culling" crossover arc.

In Part 1, we saw how Yera was duped into impersonating Shrinking Violet for months on end, during which time "Vi" secretly married Colossal Boy. Yera was exposed, Vi was rescued, Gim and Yera decided to stay married, and all was on track for them all to live happily ever after.

But first, they gotta tell Gim's parents...

( in a story called 'Guess What's Coming to Dinner?' No, really. )

And you can tune in to Legion Lost for more Chameleon Girl, now that The Culling is wrapping up!

X-MEN: The AoA Iceman

2011-11-19T01:54:30Z

Posted by: starwolf_oakley

We've been discussing how "all new, all different" Iceman is going to be, and if Iceman is going to be similar to the Age of Apocalypse Iceman. But how powerful was the AoA Iceman, and was he *anything* like "our" Bobby Drake?
Well, no. As I've said, he's more like sentient ice. I don't even think he resumes human form at all during AOA.

Magneto quotes Yogi Berra!

Pages after the cut.

Jean vs. Sabretooth (or "My Issues Can Beat Up Your Issues")

2011-06-22T21:02:43Z

Posted by: jetwolf

By request from auggie18, I present this rather awesome fight between Jean Grey and Sabretooth from (Adjectiveless) X-Men #28.

Some context. In order to stave off his bloodlust and maintain some semblance of humanity, Sabretooth has been using a telepath named Birdy to give him "the glow", a mental blast which functions basically as mutant prozac. When she's killed he decides the only logical conclusion is to go let Wolverine "do what needs to be done". Problem is, just a few issues ago Magneto went and ripped out all of Wolverine's adamantium and Logan's not in much of a position to do anything to anybody.

With Sabretooth on his doorstep, Xavier enters Creed's mind and discovers that he perfectly remembers all of his past victims, which is driving him even further into psychosis. Xavier decides that Sabretooth can be redeemed and thus they cage him up in the mansion and therapy begins.

This goes over about as well with the X-Men as you'd expect, but one member in particular is having serious reservations. After comforting Jubilee in the wake of a major Sabretooth-themed nightmare, Jean gathers Scott, Hank and Ororo at Harry's to talk about it. With all the questionable actions Xavier's taken lately (from having Storm steal for him up to the assault on Magneto), is this what they should be doing, or just another example of Charles losing it? The discussion goes from "well we took in Wolverine and Rogue and worked out okay" to "Sabretooth's powers aren't out of control he's just an evil guy who likes to use them to torture and kill people".

Things seem to keep getting worse with Sabretooth going out of his way to deeply freak out each and every person he encounters. Jean finally snaps and confronts Xavier directly. That's when Scott figures it out.

( Cue drama, as only the '90s can do it. )

This is the blurb to go with it

A Marvel Masterpiece from deep inside the treasure vaults can now be told! The original team of Doctor Strange, The Hulk, Silver Surfer and Namor are together again for a hidden adventure!

JLA/99 #6 Let's hear it for the villain

2011-04-01T02:12:59Z

Posted by: skjam

Since I posted pages from the first issue of this miniseries five months ago, I thought I'd post four pages from the end, JLA/the99 #6.

As you may recall, Superman and Wonder Woman, along with several members of the 99, were at the unveiling of a City of the Future when suddenly people in the city (and soon all over the world) began rioting. Other disasters started happening as well, with several people acting out of character.

( Sometimes, you have to know the right buttons to push. )

Greetings True Believers!

I had a brain-wave today and I realized this comm was missing something. The epic first encounter between Deadpool and Bob, Agent of HYDRA!

Bob is one of the most awesome characters that ever awesomed.

One of the things that DP often has going for him is an awesome supporting cast and Bob is one of the greats. If you're unaware of his existence, click I say! For your own sake!

So we've gotten an "official" picture of Andrew Garfield as Spidey unmasked, and we've had a couple of candids of Spidey on set, but this here is the first official image of the new Spidey in full costume.

The movie, btw, is going to be called "The Amazing Spider-Man".

X-MEN UNLIMITED #2: Meet your new housemate

2011-02-07T05:45:30Z

Posted by: starwolf_oakley

Here's the final page of X-MEN UNLIMITED #2, where Professor Xavier had the idea to keep Sabretooth in the X-mansion to help him control his homicidal rages. (Sabretooth's murderous impulses had become less of a sick thrill than an uncontrollable need.) He's had worse ideas.
Really.

Crossover time!

2010-10-31T18:38:23Z

Posted by: skjam

Hopefully, this won't have been posted between the time I started and the time this uploads. Cover and four pages from this week's JLA/99 #1.

For those of you who haven't been around for previous discussions, "The Ninety-Nine" is a concept created by Naif al-Mutawa, in an effort to let kids from Muslim-majority countries have superhero comics they could read with at least some cultural approval. Each of the teenagers in the 99 gets their powers from bonding with a "Noor stone" which contains a fragment of the knowledge and wisdom of the ancient Middle East. Their code names come from the 99 names of Allah, minus the bit that makes them a god's name. As part of the themes of the series, while individual members are fairly powerful on their own, they are much more powerful if they link up in threes or more to combine their abilities.

Wonder Woman's costume seems to be the "alternate universe" one solely to allow this comic to be reprinted in countries where her swimsuit outfit would be too controversial; the JLA depicted seems to be one we've never seen together before.

( In the tradition of crossovers, multiple crises around the world. )
