    Oh well, on the bright side, thanks to the sliding timescale and Scott's insane early 20s, he's probably not even aware there were Expendables sequels.

    Nah. Scott's more the type to remember actual movie quotes that are often misquoted and get shamed for it whenever he brings up one, lol.

    My point exactly. Scott's been in his late 20s/maybe 30 since forever. The guy was going through his post-DPS/Maddie/X-Factor trainwreck years during our early 2010s. His pop culture references repertoire from that era has got to be basically non-existent, right?


    Anyway, this preview art has me positively terrified:

    I do agree they are far apart but that KIB panel was sweet af
    In my post (the one you replied to) I said this was the original Secret Wars, so the one from the 80s.

    Though shout out to the incursion Secret Wars since only a few hand-picked heroes survived the incursions and Scott was the lone X-Man to survive the trip to Battleworld (Beast was also chosen but was killed in transit). All the other available X-Men fought the Earth-1610 invasion/incursion and perished.

    Yes.

    Queen Emma just decreed that the X-Men would keep flexing and partying instead of worrying about silly things like proper child care and education systems.

    I'm kinda not kidding, lol.

    Mild vent. Went to a gaming store this weekend to buy heroclix with my son. My son knowing I'm a huge Cyclops fan asked at the register "if I get any Cyclops clix, do you want to trade?". The guy working the store responds with "Ah yes Cyclops, he just wants to keep the school together. That means randomly killing thousands of people". here was the rough run down of what happened next:
    "who did he kill?"-Me
    "Oh its the current plot he kills tons of people"-Guy
    "who?"-Me
    "well he put together a kill squad made of his students"-Guy
    "like who?"-Me
    "His students man, he's making them kill people"-Guy
    "X-Force? You mean like Warpath? Deadpool? I can give you X-23"-Me
    "NO, like his teen students man. He's making them kill random people"-Guy
    "like who?" -Me
    to which he then just gave the total. Not going to lie, my real irritation was his inserting himself into a conversation with my 11 year old and I, and then had no clue what he was talking about. I didn't ask comic issues as numbers are hard to fire off on the spot. Most people on the other hand tend to be able to remember characters.

    Current plot? Honestly the whole thing is confusing, man. Hopefully it didn't mess with your weekend or time with your son.

    I used to game with a guy who couldn't keep himself from going on a ten minute rant about how he thinks Cyclops is a major douchebag at the slightest mention. He doesn't do this for any other character, but for Cyclops he couldn't even hold back at the mention of Norm Spencer's death. The biggest douchebag wasn't the fictional one.

    I didn't let it ruin things with my son. We went home and played several games of clix. I pulled Corsair that that day so I played Cyclops, Havok, Corsair, Vulcan and Forge (he has a power that is useful for characters with the X-Factor qualifier to them). It was fun, my son said I was playing "the Summers+Corsair's mustache brother".

    It was weird though, its like the guy was expecting a "Cyclops, am I right bro?" moment. Which given the context of the exchange with my son, made no sense.
