It’s so you know her bodsuit is close enough to the skin have the same texture as Professor Xavier’s face.
Here’s another picture I remember that I didn’t post to hide my childhood horniness, but I was just like, “wow, what incredible shadows” at the time. ![]() Also thought Amelia Voght was Very Important. (well she is more important than Neophyte, I must say) In my mind, I thought of her as kind of chill and reluctant for an Acolyte, but that wasn’t really the case this issue. Maybe my impression came from knowing about her from the television show or, much later, reading about X-Mythology. |

I think that aspect of Voght developed a bit later when they decided to make her another example of why dating the young Charles Xavier was a terrible idea.

Bishop's true mutant power is super-powerful core muscles to hold his knees up like that for the duration of the flight and despite Warren's maneuvering.

I was pretty sure Magneto had been retconned to not be Xorn but then Cyclops was looking inside his head after they were both possessed by Mosaic and one of the memories he saw was Xorn fucking up New York, what the hell are you doing comics

The 90's were really weird about how they drew women's crotches. Either they were always drawn in 3/4 view with hips cocked or like Voght in that page there.

For what it's worth Grant Morrison 100 percent intended for Xorn to be Magneto and that's it. But, you know, comic books. |

My brother requested it for his birthday a month ago, it was mentioned on Battle of the Atom this week, and it arrived at my house today... DK’s X-Men: The Ultimate Guide could not be more representative of the Zeitgeist.

In other news, please download Bitmoji. U can cosplay as Feral or someone Claremont’s age-regressed. ![]() ![]() Last edited by Pizzarino Sbarro; 06-19-2018 at 05:17 PM. |

Man, there is some anatomy going on in that image over "X-Nation 2099."

Well, now I looked back at that image and it occurs to me: I was into the characters of X-Nation 2099, not X-Men 2099. I’ve never read the former! I’m sure it’s excellent.
Also, forgot to grab the Alpha Flight pages. What a mistake! It’s settled: Alpha Flight is an X-Book, the team is very rad, Radius is handsome and important. ![]() ![]() I’d always been interested in Witchfire (Belasco’s biological (?) daughter) and thought I found out about her here, but it must’ve been from some independent research after this page sparked my interest in Alpha Flight. Also, who is Canadian Spider-Man? |

Witchfire’s totally there. She just doesn’t look like a demon. Unless she does and there’s something very troubling going on with my brain right now.

Canadian Spider-Man is Weapon Omega. This is an extremely layered text.

Who is Weapon Omega? Is it Wild Child? I love him in that one picture of Forge’s X-Factor but otherwise I’ve never read a comic with him and all other pictures look bad.

He also drew Mike Carey’s pre-Legacy X-Men. Anyway, yes, December “Winter” Frost looks absurd, but I love her “what if wind, but cold” powers and in general all of Emma Frost’s alternate future descendants.

I bought every issue of X-Nation 2099 as it came out. It was cancelled after 6 issues, lost its core creative team after the first 3, and started and ended in 2099 events that I never read.
I loved it, for some reason??? Probably Humberto Ramos.... |

God, those New X-Men uniforms. You gotta know that everybody's holding their breath so they don't breathe in Logan's beery pit-stank.

What I loved was being AWARE of those New X-Men uniforms and then happening upon Bava's Planet of The Vampires:

BTW, I remember once mentioning that the DK book got me hooked on the idea of Shard. And yes, Shard is still a Person of Interest, but I’d also merged her in my mind with XSE rando Fixx, because her powers (telepathy and telekinesis in the forms of... fairy constructs) seemed cool as hell.
Anyway, this week’s X-Comics. I’m sorry... I liked X-Men: Gold 30, Peter and Kitty’s wedding. I was not expecting that. For one thing, I have no idea what’s going on with Wolverine and the Hunt for Wolverine. So when he popped up to make a cameo it seemed mystifying that he hid himself from the proceedings. An amusing artifact of slightly bad comic event timing. But more importantly, this was hilarious. Rude!
Cable took place in ye olde X-Force times this week!! Feral is out of character. ![]() I’ve finally read the Psylocke/Revanche body swap. It’s almost written in such a way that Psylocke could have become a real merger of Betsy Braddock and Kwannon. Of course, that’s not really how it panned out. Even within the issues themselves, it’s more like there are two Elisabeths Braddock and no Kwannons. UXM 304 may be bad, (gettin there) but 303 is really good. I’ve only read the X-Factor Fatal Attractions is so far and my verdict is, whoa that’s-a 90s-a. ![]() That is not the first time Jamie’s Multiplied himself in another person, but it is by far the gnarliest.

Is that green monsterman named Mellancamp?
If so, I’m afraid that my head canon is now that, in the MCU, John Cougar is also a mutant shapeshifter. |

That’s an excellent way to look at things, but his actual first name (Seamus) is amazing, too. I’d recommend combining them in your mind via some manner of alternate past convergence/Dragon Break nonsense. He’s both people at once.

It was also I think the end of the "can Joe Quesada draw a monthly book" experiment, but as you say he did some pretty gnarly shit on his way out. Uncanny 303 is indeed pretty good, aside from some of the ass-tastic Richard Bennett art. (Bennett went on to a not particularly remarkable career as one of Jim Lee's mini-mes at Wildstorm.) The prototype "Lobdell writes pretty good self-contained character issues" issue. |

The Mackie stuff I’m talking about is like Fixx and (I think) Forge’s X-Factor team with like Wildchild and Mystique.

Has to be post-AOA. AOA is the only reason anyone cared about Wild Child.
