Re: Wolverine and the X-Men #8 (Spoilers)

A big problem with this title is the massive cast. I think the cast should be pared down some to allow for more characterization. Maybe pick either the faculty or the students to focus on. Like I said earlier, X-Factor has 11 characters, but they weren't all added overnight, it grew to that level. T...

Re: WatXM #10 & X-Men Legacy #266 (Spoilers)

So I am a little confused. It says that the events in WatXM #10 takes place 3 hours after the battle on Utopia. Therefor, I take it the events of WatXM take place before Captain America dumped Wolverine in the tundra on the way to the Savage Land. Which means that Wolverine knew that Rachel was sidi...

Re: Uncanny X-Force #25 (Spoilers)

But this title did have my favorite line thus far this month. When Deadpool makes the comment "If I went with a prefab Captain Super Hero model would I be able to have his... package a bit more concealed? Don't want my assassins showing too much bulge as they battle." I will give that a to...

Re: Uncanny X-Force #25 (Spoilers)

I don't like Psylocke going and I wonder how long they are going to keep her remorseless. At least until she pops up in adjectiveless with some sorrow. This whole "No regret" storyline is a bad idea. Ugh. And the Omega ?Gang?, I forgot what they were called, I have very little interest in ...

Re: Coming Soon: Gambit

*LOL* I like neither tunafish nor pineapple... but I like Gambit. What you do is make some tuna salad, with mayo, black olives and sweet relish, put it on a onion roll with some swiss cheese and bake it in the oven for a minute or two, take it out of the oven, top it with some dill pickle slices, s...

Re: Coming Soon: Gambit

Over the years Gambit hasn't been one of my favorite X-Men, but he has grown on me, I do like him, and when he's absent from a title I do notice it. That said I'll check it out, but space and Kirby style monsters does not bode well. Both are great things in and of themselves, but they don't mesh wel...

Re: Uncanny X-Men #10 Review/Spoilers

This issue was a gift.

But when you're primed for crap; any improvement, no matter how minuscule, is a gift.

Re: Wolverine and the X-Men #8 (Spoilers)

The problem with this title is that; A) Too many of the cast are also prominently featured in other books (Wolverine, Iceman, Beast, Rachel, Quentin) that it makes what happens in this book seem slighter. The Planet Sin story holds not as much gravity for Quentin and Wolverine because of the simila...

Re: All New, All Different Cultural Wormhole Forums!

New to the forums and thought I would say 'Hi!.'

Relatively new listener, since January, and people can find me trolling the facebook page under my secret identity of Jason Norton, which I guess isn't so secret anymore. Just wanted to say hello and look forward to seeing everyone around.

Re: Wolverine and the X-Men #8 (Spoilers)

I concur with everyone that this stories flow, with the time warps, and artwork made the story hard to follow. I also figured when Sabretooth said to go after the heart of the team he meant Shadowcat, not Beast. That said, when this series started I loved the first arc, since then the series has gon...

Re: Avengers Vs X-Men: Round 1 (Discussion Topic - Spoilerif

Isn't Cap breaking all kinda international laws by arriving in a foreign state and demanding the removal of one of its citizens? Now I mostly skim over Fraction's writing because 9/10ths of it is nonsensical to me, so I don't remember Utopia being regarded as a foreign state at any point. But this ...

Re: Avengers Vs X-Men: Round 1 (Discussion Topic - Spoilerif

Who's to say that the PF didn't reanimate Nova and send him hurtling to Earth, because he would be able to reach Earth quicker, to warn Earth of something else that is coming. Nova only says 'it' is coming, and if the PF reanimated Nova it's power signature would be all over it. The Avengers are jum...

I have had the same problem with this arc, honestly, they say Otherworld or Omniverse and I just... huh, what was I talking about? Oh yeah, I just space out. If this arc could have been done anywhere but the Omniverse, I would have liked it better. The threats, both the Goat and the Skinless Man wer...

Re: Avengers vs. X-Men #0 (Spoilers)

A good intro issue. The art was beautiful, especially the work done on Scarlet Witch's costume. I did feel the proportions on Cyclops and Anaconda were a little off. My experience with Anaconda is from the late 80's/early 90's Captain America where she is usually drawn a lot larger than the other me...

Re: X-Factor #233 (Spoilers)

Great issue, as a MASSIVE Havok and Polaris fan it's great to FINALLY have them back in a title again. Great team dynamics. Peter David shows once again how to write a team book. My only real issue is the story for the most part felt kinda throw away. Something slipped in there just to get us to the...

Re: Uncanny X-Men #9 (Spoilers)

The issue started off good, when SWORD showed up it started to go downhill and by the time Unit hit Canada it was back at being bad again. I take three issues. 1) I don't care for the Unit. He theorizes social practices and knows little enough about humans to learn through vivisection but he drops E...
