Havok is needed. Clearly. Like the fifth leg of a chair. And he is so happy.
This would be a perfect moment for one of those improper uses of telepathy. Just saying. Followed by lots of counseling. Lots and lots. Oh so much counseling.
Interestingly enough, he might be. Maddie is clearly only interested in the fun and violence parts of ruler-ship. the other duties seem an as and when thing.
Alex doing all the boring administrative tasks that keep a kingdom running might be entirely new to Limbo. I'd be interested to see where that goes.
The fun bit is the Fenris twins showing up at the gate and getting the No! from Alex. If you read Uncanny Avengers, you see Captain Krakoa recruiting them right from the pit, and realize they immediately tries to bolt back to the mutants.
Dont need a no prize when it seems quite straightforwards that Alex goofed.
Makes sense really. Nazis are really into their insane concept of race, but the one thing that would be diametrically opposed to their belief system is being recruited by another race (human) to hunt down and exterminate their own (Mutant).
Still quite silly to have Blob shouting at and accusing Captain America of being a fascist while standing alongside Fenris with the latter dressed in full armband-sporting regalia.
Alex being such an absolute simp for Maddie is sad but also kind of hilarious at the same time. Like at the end of this story where they go on a “date” that involves them fighting some multi armed demon guy Maddie is telling Alex to show how much he loves her by taking out the guys arms and Alex just has this complete lovestruck expression on his face. He’s such a goober.
Funny enough, my favorite part of this issue was just the constant amount of little demon type guys you can see in the background and all over whenever they are in the Limbo embassy. It’s like when someone has a bunch of cats that just wander around wherever all day. Also, Belasco being used as a table. Lol.
The little demon guys all seem so happy to help! This whole Limbo deal seems pretty good compared to all the shit going on outside the walls of the embassy.
Honestly, when I first saw the page of the little guys setting up the dinner table, I was like, “Dang. That would be handy.” Just have a bunch of little imps that you just give them a treat every now and then and they like do chores for you in return. Win win.
At least it isn't what I initially thought when I glanced over the scans -- a spiked double-sided... well, you know. Havok talking to it was kinda weird too, until I figured it out.
The main story is set after, with the X-Men saving mutants from being abducted. The scans here are from the 'back-up' (gotta justify that $4.99 price tag), one week after the embassy was established.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
