After reading that X-Men synopsis: What you have just described is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent summary were you even close to anything that could be considered a sensible story. Everyone in this forum is now dumber for having r...

It looked like mostly bare tushie stuff, but did she do a photo shoot with a lion?? That’s dope. If it was 2024, I would’ve assumed it was stuffed or cgi. But if it was the 70s, they totally had her straddle a lion’s back while she was nekked.

The last of the current catch up reading. All of this X-stuff is happening simultaneously, so everything I was reading was referencing stuff in the stuff I hadn’t read yet. And this entire finale to the Krakoa saga is already tripping balls. X-Men 33. Orchis attacks Callisto’s hidden mutant sanctuar...

I said 23 years ago that this was one of the two big problems with Marvel having the characters react realistically to 9/11. I get that it was a major event in the real world, but was Peter Parker even born yet according to today's view of the sliding timeline? (Not to mention the other issue that ...

Since it was crossing over with Venom, I read Carnage 5 and 6 along side… Venom 32. Carnage confronts Dylan looking for Eddie. When C realizes it’s Dylan and not Eddie bonded to the Venom symbiote, he separates them and stabs Dylan in the heart, killing him. Then he uhhhh…absorbs into Dylan to trave...

Sorry to keep hijacking the topic, but another sliding timescale issue is the ever widening gap between the “Golden Age” set during the immovable WWII era and the ‘Modern Age” which is everything from “13 years ago” up to the present. Which wasn’t a large gap of no discernible super hero antics for ...

I am surprised Marvel hasn’t figured out a way to retcon Wolverine into the original Invaders lineup. Logan would have fit in perfectly with the bitchy Namor, Jim Hammond, and Cap all sniping at each other.

I recently saw somewhere (on TikTok, I think) that explained how Marvel has a sliding timescale, where the start of the 616 as we know it from Fantastic Four #1 is always about 13 years ago. Naturally, this doesn't always work, especially when it comes to real world events, and the amount of storie...

Spider-Punk:Arms Race 3. I leafed thru this. I am not feeling this series at all. Spider-Woman 7. Jess has relocated to San Francisco. She meets up with her former boyfriend/landlord. The. She decided to break into a new corporate HQ for a company that’s secretly a front for Hydra. She ends up fight...

I would also suggest you not get too hung up on the continuity porn and the sliding timescale and whatnot. It was fine for the first 20-30 years, and they had guys like Gruenwald and Thomas who were serious about making sure all the jigsaw puzzle pieces fit together. But we are sixty+ years in and…s...

Whatever happened to… The Man on the Wall? At some point, it was revealed that the OG Nick Fury, in addition to running SHIELD, had also been tasked by some old Russian geezer who was dying to be this super top secret sort of Interdimensional Safeguard for Earth. When he got killed/turned into the c...

Fuck me, Wolvie and Hank were both Avengers, weren't they? Goddammit. Several of the X-Men have been Avengers at this point. Rogue. Havok. Sabretooth. Cannonball. Hell, Sunspot led his own Avengers team for awhile. Deadpool was funding the team for awhile. I would also suggest that even if a later ...

This commences the next batch of staying on top of the current stuff. Nightwing 84. Part of my FCBD purchases, but it’s going in the current box. Dick has just announced to the world his plan to reinvigorate Bludhaven with Alfred’s money. So naturally, he heads back to Gotham to participate in the F...

I appreciated the small nods to the original in 2011's Rise of the Planet of the Apes, especially the TV headline stating the Icarus spacecraft had disappeared, implying PotA and RotPotA are connected. I feel like they planning to do the Rise prequel film closer to Burton film, but as always happen...

Well. I was going to wait and just watch the last two episodes together next week, since I was binging them two at a time for the whole season. But someone spoiled this episode with a cheeky reference in the Hidden Gems topic. So now I’m not gonna bother with any if it. I’ll just assume the rest of ...
