About to get on a plane to Japan. This should be fun.

Don’t go paying them back for Pearl Harbor. They gave us Hello Kitty and Godzilla. We’re past our differences. 

Ultimate Spider-Man issue 4 is the best issue Hickman has wrote since F4  588.

I know zilch about Bastion but that scene of him in the end has me very intrigued

 

The short is that bastion was one of the main people behind Operation Zero Tolerance as well as a key member of the Purifiers.  He eventually merges with Nimrod after meeting Master Mold

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 had an idea that "sounds cool on paper" but doesn't work out in practice. The Blades were created by multiple artists. In addition to some of them being meh, the artstyle was utterly inconsistent because it. You could run around in party with 4 different artstyles at the same time. 😑 Multple artists are good for variant covers or art books but not for in game assets. 

God I hated this. They should have stream lined all the blade designs for in-game but kept the artist designs/style/whatever to the UI. Would have been much better.

'Ive never been the biggest fan of Forge either. Can't imagine why....

Separating Storm and T’Challa is the best thing they’ve done for both characters. 

Let’s goooo

I just picked up the Predator vs Wolverine trade. I'm not expecting a deep, complicated story. I just wanna see these two cut each other up.

It’s actually pretty good. I hope you aren’t disappointed. I imagine it reads better as a trade too.

I’m a big fan of Percy. I love his Ghost Rider run. His audio dramas he wrote (The Marvel Wasteland series and the two Wolverine stories) are really good too.
 

My only critique is A lot of Benjamin Percy’s pacing in his comics can feel very jarring if you read them month-by-month. Everything flows way better when you read his stories by the trade. 

Jonathan Hickman is writing Avengers vs. Aliens this summer. First issue drops in July. Gimme all the data pages, Hickman. I need all of them.

With so many of you guys praising Fallout, I may give it a watch. I never been into the franchise. I've tried though. I bought Fallout 3 and NV during Steam sales, just didnt' grab me. That said too many people with usually disparate opinions online agree that it's good. Which gives me an X-Men 97 vibe.

 
My gf and I were supposed to watch it last weekend but we ended up watching Season 6 of Love is Blind

Don’t worry guys. Silk Song’s release date will be announced soon, I’m sure. 

Madisynn is 616 canon now! 
 

bless Jed McKay

Rufus is peak masculinity. Best SF character.

I love seeing the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants constantly tell Master Mind high key that his mutant ability is TRASH. 

Which is wild cause Jason Wyngarde’s mutant ability is fucking broke. 😂

I'll take dumbass takes that add nothing to discourse for $1000 Alex.

That’s pretty much what I think of the entire ‘debate’ you’re trying to have too. 

I want my pixels and polygons to be fuckable. If I don’t want to fuck em I don’t want to play em. 😤
