By far the best cover of the series. I love it.
Yeah, I’m in love with this cover. I’ll be buying two physical copies of that one. Sorry, husband.
I didn't know Richard Armitage is doing Wolverine. I loved him North and South series. I'm loving also we are seen as a beacon of hope as I'm looking at other comic couples' forums and Romy is serving as an example as a couple reunited possible even after years of not being a couple.
Yeah, it's so easy to get caught up in the difficulties and controversies of our own little Romy bubble, but when I start reading up on other comic book couples I realize that it's just rough all around to create and sustain a relationship in comics. And it's basically a product of its environment, since these are characters that basically have a neverending story with changing writers and changing priorities. There really is no happily ever-after. So I'm just very grateful to be able to enjoy this particular moment for these characters and will continue to hope it lasts for a good long run and that some significant developments come out of it.
AppleJ 18 months is such a long time to write a couple. Romy is a miracle! Thinking of Crimson Dawn, and Cyclops/Phoenix and Vision/ScarletWitch series, they all lasted less than a year. I am mentally preparing myself to the end where we may have Romy still together but in the XTitles were they have to share airspace with other characters. I don't know how I did it, just seeing them in a couple of pages an issue in the X-Titles. When I think of the basketball game or the picnic, I don't see any couple these days that they can do it in these days of action action action and drama.
Going back to the Wolverine podcast, guess we get to repeat history over and over, where instead of radio drama shows, we get it on podcast. Which works out in that they save money on eFX and costumes and production.

Some people wanted to know about UnCanny X-men #268. I finally figured out how to post the image I downloaded to my computer from my issue.

People were wondering about what happened to Rogue on Genosha and her reaction to it. This is from UXM#236, dated late Oct 1988. As you can see, Rogue retreats into her subconscious and ends up releasing the Carol Danvers persona from there. The 2 were sepperated exactly 2 years later because of Rogue's trip through the Siege Perilous, benig shown in UXM#269, dated Oct 1990.

I know some of you are fans of KT’s other stuff, so this is a bummer. I thought it was a pretty fun book.
On a more positive note....I can’t stop thinking of the issue 11 mmx cover.
