Wolverine and the X-men #2

[sherkahn]

Thank you, Satan Claws, for my early X-mas present!

It's not the still beating heart of the childhood bully from my younger years, but this is close enough!

Two highlights from the title!!!! YAAAYYY!!!!!!



Sing it with me!


Love is in the air
Every sight and every sound
And I don't know if I'm being foolish
Don't know if I'm being wise

But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when I look in your eyes




I LOVE this!

Two of the potentially most dour and bitter characters to come out of the X-titles in recent years suddenly having a moment!

Never, I say, NEVER would I have seen this coming. And I'm giddy as a school kid!


And speaking of "never saw that coming."

I've been saying this a lot lately, mostly because how happy I am to say it, but:
Fuck Yeah, Iceman!

[shadowpsykie]

Ugh... Bad art is bad....

[sherkahn]

All in the eye of the beholder.

I, for one, am loving it.

[rordulum]

Bachalo's art has always been pretty bad, for me. Not quite as offensive to the eyes as Humberto Ramos, but not far off.

Not sure why Kitty would be expected to enjoy a mouthful of ice, either. Jeez, Bobby, turn back to flesh before you stick your tongue in her mouth.

I don't know who those other characters are.

[freezer]

She never had a problem with a mouthful of metal. Don't imagine this was much worse.

[cainofdreaming]

Have you seen his GR 2099 work? The art in that title had energy that you hardly ever get to see from the big two.

[ian_karkull]

It's an acquired taste. Having read Generation X in my teens, I'm loving the hell out of Bachalo and he's only gotten better, imho. I guess I can see why it wouldn't be someone's cup of tea stylistically speaking, though I'd argue that from a purely technical point of view, it's not bad by any means.

[shadowpsykie]

,See I loved his gen x stuff, even though I thought it was too busy, but I didn't like his uncanny (children of the vault) stuff. Or his current stuff

[long_silence]

Children of the Vault was in Adjectiveless.

[shadowpsykie]

Seriously? Hmn still, for me it was loads of do not want

[darkknightjrk]

For all the praise people give about his action sequences, I actually feel the opposite--he's at his best when he's doing more quiet, talking head stuff, and it becomes almost incomprehensible when he's doing action.

[shadowpsykie]

ill give you that. his action sequences are... brain bleedy. but his talking heads, and quite moments are okay

[auggie18]

His art is always really hit-or-miss for me. Often times both within the same page.

I KNOW!! And I remember there were jokes about Idie bonding with other "monsters" at the school and now voilá. :>

I love this book <3

Well worth the almost 20 minutes that it took me to wrestle comixology under submission today with this sorry excuse of an internet connection >.>

[brooms]

Also, I love the HFC kids.

[icon_uk]

Who's the redhead with the spiky jacket? Telepathic at a guess, but I can't think of any who look like that?

Bachalo art still does NOTHING for me!

[sherkahn]

Remember the Shi'ar Gladiator?

It's his son.

Sorry, thought you said red spiky hair.

That's Rachel Summers in the red jacket.

[icon_uk]

I was about to reply that I don't mind a pretty boy, but that's going a little far IMHO! :)

[sianmink]

Wasn't Rae mainly a telekinetic? Not that she wouldn't go for brainclobbers when TK force clobbering doesn't work, but it seems odd to me.

[shadowpsykie]

no she was pretty much Jean, TK and TP she was stronger as a TK but her TP made her one of the more powerful (She doesn't have the control Jean or Emma had though)

[long_silence]

I'm glad Lockheed kills that one.

[sianmink]

Dragons are possessive about their territory.

[brooms]

I'm spamming this post, Idc -

Lockheed is my spirit animal:

[outlawpoet]

dragons are possessive.

[nezchan]

Bobby was right.

He CAN do amazing!

[big_daddy_d]

ugh she just broke up with Colossus dammit. Hate these fast shippings.

[sherkahn]

It's actually a development with Bobby, not Kitty.

In my opinion....
What ever mental barriers or safeguard's he had in place to keep his impulses in check as his powers grew, they were just lowered.
For better or worse.

[biod]

I'm going with Sherkahn here. It's not the start of a new relationship (as far as I know) but more Bobby kissing the hot brunette because, why not, he's the Goddamn Iceman.

[big_daddy_d]

Also in regards to Idie and that Brood kid.. hit it!

[auggie18]

Huh. I'm liking Rachel's new outfit more and more.

[lieut_kettch]

I dunno... Shrugging her shoulders might lead to an impromptu lobotomy with those spikes.

[auggie18]

Hey, in some of her old outfits, hugging was deadly.

[lieut_kettch]

What happened to Kitty's skin tone? Too much time using the Danger Room's beach simulation?

[eyz]

...that's what a long travel through space will do to you!

[eyz]

And I say.... long overdue!

[salinea]

Meh.
