The Hellfire Gala

[superjosh]

I 100% agree. The same when they say mary sue or other connotations that they just use to trigger people. Sadly, this applies to both sides as you do have people who just start throwing accusations about racism or sexism or whatever ism because their arguments start to crumble or they just want to be mean. It happens all the time on here and i can’t help but facepalm because these people try and act like they are some kind of activists but really are just part of the problem.

I agree this can be a problem (shoutout to Demi Lovato lol), but I don't think it's more of a nuisance compared to actual problematic behavior. I'm a big proponent of calling out things that are harmful, but I try to do it on the side of... I guess gentle enlightenment? (I know that sounds very holier than thou, but hopefully people get what I mean.) I still fumble a lot with some issues and I appreciate being checked so I don't do it again. I just wish people wouldn't dismiss people's feelings so quickly.

Anyway, back on topic!

heres my ranking of all the outfits, this was kinda harder than i expected it to be

I love that you made a graphic!

I definitely have Betsy up in the top tier as well as Sync and Eyeboy. Some major differences would be I'd move Rogue, Rictor, and Selene up. Madrox, Havok, Warpath, Gambit, and Dani down.

In full agreement that all of the X-Force men are complete fails and Daken is the biggest disappointment of the whole bunch!

For the record, I hate sideburns.
I'm happy to see Gambit's face without that ridiculous headpiece he wears.
I do not like Prodigy's look at all.
Kitty never had any style, and it looks like Laura raided her closet.
Love love love Northstar, Colossus, Frenzy, Monet, Madrox, and Cannonball. Frenzy is serving up Anjelina Jolie red carpet leg action.

I like Northstar and Cannonball's looks as designs, but I wish they had a point of view... maybe even if the color blocking was just changed up. As they are, they could just be interchanged with other characters.

That's why I like Dauterman's (and some of Werneck's) designs the most.

If that were the only situation, I’d be a little more sympathetic. But there’s a lot of underlying homophobia and garbage speak attached to it. Whenever someone says SJW or “pushing a gay agenda”, it is not about being unsatisfied with storytelling. It is about being ignorant, sexist, racist, homophobic, and all of that.

Really hate when people say SJW and these commentaries are unfortunate. But I have seen people losing patience for a long time with x-books. People can be really priks when they are mad with some decisions

I understand this part.. valid criticism!

Gonna try to get back on topic. For those feeling nostalgic and since everything is being rebooted these days, I mocked up a little something to get psyched... throwback to the first new team reveal!


(Yes, that's James standing in for John LOL.)

The problem is that dissatisfaction has been growing for some time and all that line can offer is a gala, really make folks mad. I think that if it was a one shot ok, but it is a entire month of comics.

While I personally don't really care one bit about the Gala?

Art has no duty to coddle grumps or be less complex because the regular "Jane.."/Joe..." might want less complex comics.

Loving that.

Thank you.

Oh Banshee. Do mutants just no longer do socks? Is that what this whole Age of Krakoa is about, a drastic overreaction to the tyranny of covered-up ankles?

It's actually super common right now for men and women to wear loafer style shoes with hidden socks.

Loving that.

Thank you.

You're welcome! Did another one. Beast and his stupid angled stance was quite annoying lol.

[Dipter]

With that stance, Beast looks like he’s pissed about being the only one without a glow up.

That's brilliant as well.

Thanks again.
