    I don't think sex is necessarily in the cards. I was thinking more in terms of getting experience being with another guy in a romantic context, but not wanting to do an LDR or whatever.

    I dunno that a LDR would be a problem for Iceman - this Iceman, anyway, since he isn't stuck in Madripoor. He does have access to a jet.

    Also, I really just enjoyed this. It was very good.

    Anyone else think that Judah's name is a reference to Bobby's love interest from his origin story? Her name was Judy.
    Great pickup and very well could be.

    And more than one long-distance teleporter. Distance is still a complication, either way. But we'll see where it goes. I do hope he doesn't get his heart bruised, though. (+1 to Judah for being cool about the super-hero stuff so far.) For all the jokes, it's been a pretty rough time for Iceman.

    That's perfectly fair, yeah. I just hope that they don't try to tread the same ground with both Icemen - baby Bobby is already presumably being ghosted by Romeo.

    Enjoyed the issue. Glad that we're finally getting something a little more upbeat, even if it is a little weird in the context of mourning BW. I like Judah fine for a first time date situation, I don't think he will be developed into a long term thing, but who knows. Gill's art is a bit of an improvement from Vitti, but still wish we were getting someone better with expressions, there were some unintentional derp faces (also there were some panels where Judah and Bobby looked like they had pretty much the same face). It's also kind of weird to me that Kitty is Bobby's go to person for talking about stuff, before they dated they never really seemed that close, would love to see Rogue or Beast taking some of those roles.

    Forgot to mention how much I enjoyed the line about playing an unhealthy amount of baseball on the same day that they're playing it again in Gold #13.

    "Yes, I am a babe." lol the humor was on point on this issue. I enjoyed seeing Bobby on the receiving end of horrible pick-up lines. Though it seemed to work on him, so now we know why he uses them. xD

    As for his first gay relationship (?) being with a human, I don't mind that. The superhero community date each other too much anyway. Though ofc we have no idea how serious the relationship with this guy will be.

    Aww, I loved how supportive Warren was in this. I like how their dynamic hasn't changed at all and that Warren doesn't treat him any differently. Maybe he suspected Bobby for a long time already?

    Over all, really nice issue. Interested in seeing how it'll go from here.

    Judah feels...off...somehow...like he knew what Bobby was looking for and gave him what he needed....almost like Judah's an escort that Warren or someone bought for Bobby to help him transition.


    the reaction to a size 12 shoe lol.

    I'm loving this book more and more. I hope it goes past 12 issues.
    I was trying to do too much and not doing any of it as well as I could. But I've had a change of mind... though not everyone shall enjoy it. I will.

    Mystiiiiiiiiique lol. I'll stop.

    The humor was really spot on in this issue. Probably the funniest so far.

    Kind of love that Iceman's first gay kiss took place at a gay club, as that's so very, very common. The humor has only gotten better with each issue, Sina is really finding his footing and I'm hoping he's able to have a longer run than people are expecting.

    Another great issue. Wish this series could last as long as Sina Grace wishes it to.

    A demon, an angel and a Greek God walk into a bar...
    • Gawd I love Hercules.
    • Honoring Black Widow the only way they know how was quite special and makes me miss Nat
    • Seeing Darkstar again makes me happy too. I'd love if she found a more permanent place in the MU. Is she still with the Winter Guard? Or is that one of the other Darkstars?
    • Ghost Rider was a little boring here and was easily overshadowed by the others.I feel his presence was a mandatory one to complete the OG roster, but he didn't really have much of a role despite being a HUGE character.
    • The setting is iconic and I makes me wish we had a permanent team set on the West Coast.
    • Judah was rather vanilla, but I'm happy that Bobby is happy. He's cute though. I just hope that both of our Icemen don't fall too hard for the flatscans as it's a little boring.



    All in all, I'm loving the series and I hope it continues at least to 12 issues. I believe the initial art for the series depicted Sinister & Mystique in addition to Juggernaut and Daken (who we've already seen) so I wonder if they'll appear at some point.

    This issue was absolute offensive nonsense.

    After five great issues, we get one where two X-Men grieve for the black widow?!?!?
    WHO!!!! An absolute nobody Avenger has died and we get an x-issue grieving her?
    The only time I have read about this moron was when she pointing her armed fists at X-Men during Bendis’s opening issues or talking complete trash during AvX. She died, did she? GOOD. Hope Hawkboy, Captain Facist and Iron Twit did too.

    Cyclops, the leader of the X-Men for 50 years died off panel from cloud poisoning, and does not even get one issue where an X-Man grieves for him (except possibly the only non-traitor X-Man, Emma) and yet this dumb Avenger gets a whole issue of a solo X-Man’s title, going on about how amazing she was.

    Book dropped, this is just complete crap.

    That's.... Very fair. I can't argue.
