Paras Gavaskar, my beloved J-lister, or whatever rung 'two background appearances a year that largely just exist to capitalize on the fact that he's purple and that visually pops' lands a character...
Uncanny X-Men #319, purchased off a Toys-R-Us spinner rack with Christmas money when I was ten years old and comics were still sold in major stores like Toys-R-Us which at the time was a store that...
I mean, can you betray someone who's already betrayed you? I feel like the 'being betrayed' part removes any obligation to stick by your former ally and any subsequent actions you take against them...
If you insist on taking all possible nuance out of a story - ie completely removing the 'they are killing active combatants who are willfully complicit in an active genocide' from your very framing...
Saul's a potential BEAST, power-wise, (pun absolutely intended) who we've never really gotten to see go all out because of how little he's been used. He's transformed into a dragon before, but its...
Rift's mutant power is to summon a mention of Hellion to any post or conversation. He's omega level; his ability to derail in the name of Hellion or make anything about Julian Keller is without...
Gotcha. My mistake.
I mean, for months they sure did put a whole lot of relevance on the threat he posed to Orchis given that he was a direct target of Nimrod's and then his entire solo was about Orchis considering him...
I mean, the point of him being a double agent or working to sabotage Orchis doesn't need any justification for existing beyond just....it would be a plot twist.
Since when are plot twists or there...
And just to be clear, I honestly don't think he's essential to the end of all this and how stuff plays out and we know he definitely will be coming back. I would tooootally be down for them to just,...
In the vein of my "I'm fine with Bobby not showing up the rest of this mess and would rather he get a big story about where he's been and what he's been up to since his solo in the next era"...
Whoops, wrong thread.
Touché. And other things adding up to ten characters worth of post content.
(Me? Posting something that's too SHORT? There really is a first time for everything).
Fair enough. I think Thorne's response in the X-Force thread heavily suggests against that though. If Cable did win the Tournament, having Apocalypse's actual heir be on the team wouldn't really fit...
I mean, the reveal that Delroy isn't actively working undercover with T'Challa or the other Avengers doesn't mean that he couldn't have accepted the position in Orchis fully intending to just...
Yeah, like. The idea that actually, the Five DON'T need regular or direct access to Sinister's genetic database to bring people back is probably the single element of the entire Krakoan era you LEAST...
Funny, these solicits actually gave me a totally different thought.....we know Thorne originally pitched this X-Force idea back in 2020, right? I'm wondering if it was picked now because Forge...
He did an Exiles reboot awhile back. I dont really know how well or not it was received in general, but I really enjoyed it and thought he did a good job of balancing dynamics and focus, esp with...
I mean, its a pretty significant factor in the current Sabretooth War storyline so I would be extremely surprised if it was forgotten by the writer using them two months from now.
I could see it either way, I'm just defaulting to X-Factor because it would be my preference. I'd rather have Ahmed on a team book than a solo is all, lol.
Also, he was rather notably killed by Isca in X-Men Red.
I would not be surprised if the upcoming Blood Hunt one-shots (Kwannon, Magik, etc) were picked with an eye towards using them as test drives, see how viable they are for future solo projects.
Alternatively, if it is the Tank from Ironheart, from what I recall he was a scientist interested in space/time and dimensional displacement so I always read him as his mutant power was the...
I actually think Saladin Ahmed might be the writer on X-Factor. If Mystique and Destiny are in that cast, him weighing in on Gail's pitch for Kurt or having his own hand in pitching Kurt's direction...
