I've wanted to see the return of "spy-fi" 'Berto since Time Runs Out. We never DID get to see what he did as "Citizen X", but I liked the idea so much I used that scene as my avatar. :)

Not so much appearances as backstory. On the one hand, 'Yana created it during her training. But on the other, it's tied to Limbo and the symbol of its monarch (see various issues of Excalibur).

The light blue energy one. It's a useful balance between "useful sword" and "psychic lightsaber".

Speaking of which... I wonder if anyone still remembers the Two Soulswords Theory I came up with...

There's a difference between a generic event and specifically referencing that universe. Especially since the comic in question diverged from continuity fairly sharply.

Really, the primary reason...

In brief:

It's revealed on the last page that the Drummer is Jakita Wagner. Specifically, the Jakita Wagner from Planetary who is looking for Elijah Snow, which suggests that somehow between the...

I'm really REALLY not happy that the writers chose to

Take away the happy ending of Planetary #27

I don't CARE how meta it is.

The Shroud has been C-list since his creation. That being said, he has a unique take on superheroics and a great look.

It's a pity that he's been written as somewhat delusional (and borderline...

There were a few clues, but honestly, until the preview for this issue, there was still room for doubt.

Of course, we still don't know WHY. :)

It's nice that I guessed right, but I'm not sure if the fact that I'm starting to understand how Jed thinks is a good thing or a bad one. ;-)

Why are so many of Kitty Pryde's boyfriends named Peter (or a variation thereof)?

Piotr Rasputin
Pete Wisdom
Peter Quill
even Peter Parker (over in the original Ultimate Universe).

Priest, Hudlin & Liss. The McDuffie run on FF.

The Secret Invasion arc by Aaron, and the King in Black tie-in.

That's basically it.

Nikki Adams while he was in college (as per the Priest run)

Monica Lynne starting in 1969 until the aforementioned Priest run. They were even engaged at one point.

And Malaika, during the...

Because that would mean that Wakandans actually accomplished something positive, instead of being imperialist colonizers who created a dictatorship based on weaponized amnesia.

Much of the issue is about the supporting cast saving his tail, ending up with a friggin' CARE BEARS ending.

"We are all protectors of Wakanda." He can't even keep THAT lane.

I'm still trying to parse that dialogue. There seems to be a disconnect between "No weapon would be suitable" and "Today, you starve".

Also, we've achieved Iron Panther, apparently.

If Storm is such a critical part of the BP franchise, why have almost all her appearances since at least 2021 been in the X-office?

Why was she allowed to be an absolute monarch of a PLANET but...

The thing is, some of us have been burned by "just wait and see!" once too often. If you want us to read the next issue, MAKE us want to know what happens. Don't just assume we'll meekly wait for...

A minor problem with using Dune as a framework: The protagonists don't actually win in the long run.

Nothing in the status quo that Ridley left required (or even suggested) stranding T'Challa in Wakandan Chicago (Hey! Her X-book is in Chicago too! What are the odds!) doing warmed-over Batman plots....

So Eve L. Ewing goes from "killed her BP run in less than a year" to "writing a core X-book".

Talk about failing upwards...

The only reason I ruled Khonshu out was the pepper trick. Divine beings simply don't think like that.

That's someone who is used to finding creative solutions for mundane problems. I.e., a...

I've heard that exact argument for every run since Coates. :D

True. I suspect there might be some brainwashing going on. Then again, MK2.0 hasn't mentioned Khonshu yet, so maybe it's not that sort of "work".

He appeared in issue #7 when Marc entered the...

Before the series started, there were two main candidates for the new Moon Knight (who I like to call MK2.0): Zodiac and a "brought-back wrong" Marc.

But now that we've seen him in action, I am...

I no longer have a stake in this, so feel free to make your own decisions.

(I'm down to one ongoing comic. That's it.)
