Beau DeMayo is gone before the series premiere
A bit unexpected and the lack of comment from either party seems a bit strange. Still really excited for this though. The latest teasers look...
The panel with a tear rolling down Hank's cheek after he reads about what his future-self has done hits like a truck...
Welcome back, Hank. I've missed the bouncy, blue softie from the nineties.
I think some form of rehabilitation for Hank is inevitable at this point. Opinions such as those expressed by Mungho seem to be the majority amongst Beast fans online.
I think the clue left by...
I'd love to see the climactic battle between the X-Men and Orchis from Powers of X/House of X up on the silver screen. It's one of the best action sequences I've ever seen in comic books. I think it...
Excellent news ;)
I'm more excited for this than any of Marvel Studio's slated upcoming cinematic releases.
Bring on the nostalgia!
Just posting to add a little more context on this one. Mayo is a county in Connaught on the west coast of Ireland. In the Marvel Universe, it's where the Cassidys are from. In the real world, Mayo...
It really is Hank's definitive look. Assuming Beast makes the big screen for MCU's X-Men reboot, I will be thoroughly disappointed if they don't use Jim Lee's design as the basis for the character's...
Under Whedon's pen, Beast was a hell of a lot of fun. He really played up Hank's dry wit and he got some memorable one liners. With the possible exception of Logan, I think all of the characters used...
Excellent! Delighted to see a thread like this up and running. McCoy has always been and still remains one of my favourite characters. Looking through the thread, I think Jim Lee really did give...
This is actually an excellent synopsis of the dynamic in the book. For me, the tension between the Intel (headed by Beast) and Operations (headed by Wolverine) arms of X-Force make for a thoroughly...
So far, most of the posters in this thread have gone back through the decades and singled out issues from bygone eras of X-Men lore. Which makes a lot of sense, because there are so many iconic...
I remember reading this issue many moons ago and absolutely loving it. It perfectly encapsulated everything cool about Gambit. The suave, duplicitous charmer who can't be trusted. A hero with a bit...
I thought X-Tinction Agenda was an excellent read. Generally speaking, I really enjoy sci-fi stories that speak to the world around us, or at the very least, draw influence from contemporary events. ...
Well done. That looks fantastic :)
I love this particular roster, and like many others that have posted before me in this thread, the prospect of playing through a Dawn of X/Powers of X scenario...
I'm absolutely loving the X-Men line since House of X/Powers of X. I really believe the X-Men are at their best when a writer comes in with a vision of his/her own, or at least some notion of the...
I could be wrong, but my own personal interpretation of the resurrection protocols is that individuals whose presence on the island represent a strategic advantage to Krakoa are given priority above...
Personally, I'm enjoying the warmth and sincere shows of affection between Logan and Scott. Some people might baulk at the subtext, but I'm perfectly comfortable with it. Fuck it, they even seem to...
Excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed that :)
The fight scenes were well staged and I thought that the use of Gambit's Bo staff and power set were very creative. Bonus points for the Casino...
Absolutely gorgeous. This artwork makes me hanker for a Santa Monica Studios produced X-Men game more than anything. I thought he really nailed the designs for Scott, Kurt, Hank, and Ororo in...
Trying desperately to rationalise making the purchase... The price tag is off-putting but look at the scale and detail of the thing.
That Haslab Sentinel looks absolutely incredible!
Quoted for truth! :)
There's something timeless about Jim Lee's character designs. His art created the "definitive" look for a lot of the mainstays on the team. Which is why I'm willing to...

Many of the posters in this thread have made valid points about the dangers of nostalgia and a slavish adherence to the early 90's aesthetic of Jim Lee's X-Men. I have to admit it's hard to disagree...
This is my new favourite thread :)
After several decades of tireless bickering, I think the whole Jean/Scott/Logan love triangle is thoroughly played out. Surely it has been mined for every last...
I wouldn't be averse to the Ultimate Universe being an influence on Marvel Studio's next on-screen iteration of the X-Men. However, like pretty much everyone else who has commented on this thread so...
