  1. I started reading my Hulk: Joe Fix It TPB. I thought it would be just Hulk in Vegas but we got King Pin and Spidey? And Peter David pinned this mini. The first issue was freaking great. King Pin rolled up on Mr. Fix thinking he was HIM. I enjoyed EVERY BIT of that thrashing Fix It laid on King Pin. Spidey was watching that beating like

  3. Regarding X-Men '97 ep 7, I've seen some people point out that after Rogue

     

    Spoiler

    dropped Trask off a building like the "I don't wanna play with you anymore Woody" meme, Jean, Nightcrawler or Morph all could have saved him. Wolverine points out that Rogue did "What we all wanted to do." The X-Men have been tolerating scumbags like Trask and Gyrich for far too long and look where it's gotten them.

     

    Bastion

    Spoiler

    It sounds like he is gonna spill the beans on Prof X being alive before the Prof returns to Earth. The fact that the X-Men went along with the lie for a year is not gonna do them any favors with humanity. 

     

  4. I picked up Ultimate Spider #4 yesterday. It is mostly Peter/MJ talking with Harry/Gwen and it is such a good issue. I also grabbed the third printing of Ultimate Spider-Man #2. May's note on the fridge giving Peter encouragement to keep going is so dang sweet. 

     

    The new Ultimate universe has my interest with Ultimate Spider-Man, so I picked up Ultimate X-Men #1-2. Might check out Ultimate Black Panther and the Ultimate Invasion TPB.

     

    Greg Weisman is writing Spectacular Spider-Men, got the first two issues, had no spoilers on these, so I'm going in blind.

     

    Spider-Punk, Miles Morals, Ultimate Spider-Man. Every Spidey book is infinitely more fascinating than the mainline Amazing Spider-Man. I don't know the sales numbers but it wouldn't surprise me if Amazing Spider-Man is lagging behind all the other Spidey titles.

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

    I got my first X-Men '97 figure, 4 inch Cyclops. Sadly, there was no Storm, Nightcrawler or Magneto in Walmart . Was slim pickings but I got Rightclops for $7, so I'm happy.

  6. The writing in X-Men '97 is so. GOOD. If MCU X-Men doesn't match or surpass this quality I'm finna be a mighty sad panda.

     

    Rogue to

    Spoiler

    Captain America was like, "Oh, you ain't down with the mutant struggle? Fine. Have fun finding your shield in the mountains, MF." Rage Rogue. I'm a fan.

     

    Beast

    Spoiler

    I thought Hank and Trish were gonna exchange digits for a sec but she just had to bring up human fear in the midst of a genocidal attack and Hank was like, "My dear, although your name is not Jack, you can still hit the road." Everyone is reaching their breaking point, even the most level headed of folks and I am so here for it.

     

    Sunspot

    Spoiler

    For all his fear of his mom's reaction to him being a mutant, I had a feeling she was gonna be cool with it. Heck, Roberto's parents were just wanting for him to spill his guts.

    And all the while things are going soooo well, mommy hits him with the rub. "We're fine with you being a mutant. But you gotta keep that ish under wraps. The shareholders will freak if they find out." 

     

    Gyrich

    Spoiler

    Bastion killing Gyrich makes a song come to mind...

     

     

     

  7. I just saw X-Men '97 ep 7.

     

    Rogue.

     

    Spoiler

    Rogue. Is. PISSED. 

     

    Girl broke into a military base for info.  

     

    Thunderbolt Ross: Don't worry guys, this base was built to hold the Hulk.

     

    Rogue: Yes, it was built to hold the Hulk. It was NOT built to keep out a pissed off southern gal that lost two men.

     

    Also Rogue

     

    Spoiler

    Dropped Trask off a tall AF building like a cookie! She straight up murdered that MF. Nah, he's alive. He got better. Like, Nimrod-Sentinel better. If this guy is a sign of things to come, the X-Men are gonna wish they were fighting the big, old, grape models.

     

    Sinister

    Spoiler

    I knew he wasn't working alone. Genocide just isn't his MO.

     

  8. Deve and gamer "wants/needs" for all this super high end 4K 8K stuff is really concerning. Is it impressive? Yes. Do I need it? No, not really. Devs/pubs keep saying the cost of game making is going up yet who insists on crafting all these super high tech games that struggle to maintain consistency and end up having huge AF file sizes? 

     

    To be completely honest, IDGAF about 4K in my games or TV shows.

  9. X-Men '97 ep 6

     

    Storm

    Spoiler

    We are so BAAAAAAAAACK! The omega level threat queen has returned! And she's rocking the OG fit!!

    Spoiler

    Gladiator having a complete NO SALE on Deathbird's claws and then hitting her with the "Girl, sidown" punch, which was a love tap compared to how hard he really could have hit her.

    Professor X took the Shi'ar people to school and Deathbird got demerits, because that broad is racist AF. And Chuck literally felt the ish going down on Earth. Man man, straight FELT when Gambit died. Or at least, it felt like he did.

     

    And of course Trask had something to do with Genosha getting slaughtered. What did he think a Godzilla Sentinel was gonna do? And Trask asks to be killed? Nah, son. I want that MF to live with all that death on his conscience. Killing Trask would be WAY too good for him. 

     

  10. Can we get a Cyclops is Right t-shirt? 

     

    X-Men '97 ep 5 made me recall Magneto's words at the UN to the judges. "Don't make me let you down." With that in mind...

     

    Spoiler

    If Magneto is alive (and I'm pretty sure he is), God have mercy on the soles of ANYONE involved in the Genosha Genocide. Mags about to roll up on the human race with all the smoke like

  11. I'm really enjoying the Mighty Marvel Masterworks line. Though smaller and lacking the letters section, these are  nice way to experience the early Marvel days without paying through the nose for a ton of HCs. I went ahead and picked up Vol. 1-2 of Daredevil and the Mighty Thor. That Jack Kirby and Gene Colan artwork?

     

    Stick Around Bob Ross GIF by Originals

     

    John Romita did some FINE art on Daredevil.

     

    Might be a hot take, but I really like Michael Cho's artworks for these MMM TPBs. I've seen some folks gripe on Amazon that Kirby and Ditko artwork isn't on the cover, as if it's a crime to have otherwise but the art is CLEAN and it further helps to differentiate these MMM TPBs from the MM HCs. 

     

    I'm almost done with MMM X-Men vol. 1. I love seeing the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants constantly tell Master Mind high key that his mutant ability is TRASH.

     My guy, WHY DIDN'T YOU WARN ME? I had no idea all that ish was gonna go down. I was not mentally prepared for those gut punches. Early on the episode is all happy and crap and then later on, it's like...

  13. Also in episode 5 of X-Men '97 which I am still reeling from, Cyclops

     

    Spoiler

    Man is seriously stressed out. I get it. Had his son sent to the future, Jean/Maddy clone stuff. But the man was speaking some hard truth during that interview. Dude was like "You normies are lucky we are not like the FOH, or else we would air this whole planet out." Man may is getting sick of being the Shepard. 

     

    As for Gambit

     

    Spoiler

    My man went out like MF GOAT. Got some baller scenes before his death as well. Yeah, I'm sure Cable is gonna pull a rewind but this episode still hit me in the feels. And Rogue in tears with that Death of Superman cradle? MY FEELS!!!
