KELLY T.'s Capt. MARVEL X-over: Revenge of the BROOD!

[AppleJ]

IT IS!! It's eXciting & I'm gettin' HYPEd! Into, it would seem. R&G #1 hits in Mar., same time as the above CM #47 does. But the Brood X-over won't end 'til May's #49, and the new MMX mini should be on #3 by then.

I love this news! Getting more than one X-book with Rogue and Gambit in active roles at the same time! Also kudos to Kelly for getting such an awesomely long run on Captain Marvel. That's no small feat in modern comics.

I'm digging this already.

R&G seem to be getting a push, now, I think. Yeah, without a doubt, KT deserves all the credit in the world. Especially with the odds stacked against her the way they were. It's truly an achievement.

And speaking of [relevant] memories...

and some of the same players, too.

Also, gotta love that sweet art by the very underrated Javier Pina and by Stefano Caselli who's apparently been stolen away from X-Men Red.

This is the part that's got me sweating. Wonder why C.F.Villa wasn't availiable--he's the natural fit, given he did the AXE Tie-ins

[Nicoclaws]

I didn't care much about another crossover on the same title, but the Brood plotline has been seeded from the early Hickman days so I'm fine with it.

[Kingdom X]

It's weird to see 2 issues part of Captain Marvel arc I can imagine this being collected as a Captain Marvel collected edition.

Nevertheless, it looks like they're finally addressing Hickman's plot points. We got children of the vault, brood, and sinister. So all we have left is ORCHIS and the Phalanx (I think)

And the Phalanx just got a big focus in the last Legion of X issue. Seems like the summer Fall of X really might wrap Krakoa in its current form.

About the news itself… X-line really has gone crossover crazy huh? Judgment Day just ended, Dark Web is starting, and I was kinda hoping that X-Men would hold down the fort while SOS was going on. I heard good things about the CM that came out related to this so looks like I’ll be picking that up!

Dude, word. I haven’t picked up two comics a month on the reg since X-FAQ and Hellions ended. SO tickled that after Gambit’s solo ends this week, I’ll have Cap Marvel to sustain me until the next mini series. Things are certainly looking brighter than they were last year. (And the G&R fan works week too!)

I don’t usually participate in crossovers bc I’m contrary and refuse to be told what to do what books to buy and what characters to like, but the saving grace is that this x-over isn’t involving the same 6 mutants and 3 Avengers it always does. At least, until Cyclops and Jean show up again. Glad to know we were spared Logan and got Laura instead. Upgrade! If one of the characters has to be sacrificed, can it be Havok? >

Capt. MARVEL #43: RotB part 1 *spoilers* Review, @Community.CBR.com

... it was a really good ish, garnering solid reviews all around, so far: https://comicbookroundup.com/comic-b...rvel-(2019)/43

Three years in, and Kelly doesnt seem like shes ready to slow down. This run is often touted as the longest running Capt. Marvel run of the Carol era, and its easy to see why. Kellys dry humor, and deadpan delivery has really struck a cord with Carols very dedicated fandom, and having Sergio back for a second round is just using on the cake. Give. Me. More.

8.0 AIPT - Lia Williamson

The ending of the issue lands on an exciting note, building excitement for the next issue. Sergio Davila's art brings this issue to life, making every set piece look exactly how it should. His art is eye-catching and it's particularly nice to see the X-Men in their civvies again for the first portion of the book. The art also does an exceptional job with the characters' facial expressions, always making them expressive so you know exactly what they're feeling. Read Full Review

8.0 ComicBook.com - Matthew Aguilar

At times certain characters, namely Cyclops and War Machine, look just a little off, but otherwise, the artwork is solid and especially stellar when a fight kicks into gear. I couldn't be more excited to see where this goes, and it's a perfect time for a Captain Marvel and X-Men adventure. Read Full Review

Ya LOVE 2 SEE it!!!

**SPOILERS!**

Also, on a more personal note, my favorite panel(s)/part(s)...



and some other things:

2 things I really liked overall were the balance in character usage, even for the minor guest appearances, and the pacing. The latter of which kept things movin', nice & steady.

... But I'd be lyin' if I said I wasn't worried about Lorna, as Marvel has history of goin' out of their way to be mean to, and disregard her:

X-Men: Why Polaris Is Marvel's Most Mistreated Mutant

None of the X-Men have had easy lives, but Polaris has suffered more than most of Marvel's other mutants throughout her superhero career.

BY NABEEL GABER
PUBLISHED FEB 02, 2021



... While every major X-Men character has gone through more than their fair share of suffering, Polaris, the former X-Man, longtime X-Factor member and biological daughter of Magneto, has endured more undo trauma than just about anyone else on the team. ...

For me the only odd duck out is Dark Web, is X-Men and Spidey only having a crossover because Wells is writing ASM?

continued:

... my favorite was this last panel, with the team all together. And they don't look happy, lol. Gambit especially, seems pretty ticked.
Whatever Lorna says to CM before, whether it be some sorta [accusatory?] line of questioning and/or gotcha moment, makes Cap unhappy 2.

OMG, Carol... what have you done NOW?!

So happy to have a pull at my LCS again and THIS to look forward to filling it.

Its classic style meshed w/more modern sensibilities approach seems to be clicking w/fans & have been received well, overall. Anecdotally speaking, I've seen where via some general, geeky goodwill, it may even be generating a bit of buzz.

IDK, Duggan's X-Men book was only involved peripherally in AXE:JD. Granted, it was the yr. 2 team's opening 2 issues, but still.
And, given Hellions & maybe even adjectiveless itself, like w/HfG'22...

the developments of...

... lookin' forward to Dark Web, as *well,* and it [hopefully] building on the wildly wonderful momentum started there.

seem fairly organic.

I mean, Dark Web isn't really an X-line crossover at all and the only thing X about it is a tie-in mini not impacting ongoings at all, and it's not even clear that this X-Men/Captain Marvel arc is a direct issue-to-issue crossover vs. two stories taking place around the same time and same themes.

To be fair, the covers all lining up to form one big picture is a pretty strong indication its a direct crossover.

I love how extra CBR can be with their article titles.

The X-Men Are Poised to Commit Genocide on One of Marvel's Oldest Alien Races
https://www.cbr.com/x-men-commit-gen...aptain-marvel/

"Lord of the Brood" is set to begin in the pages of X-Men #19 by writer Gerry Duggan and artist Stefano Caselli, and will continue in the following issue. The story will mark a return to the spotlight for the young, heroic mutant Brood known as Broo, whose very existence has long posed a threat to his species' ordinary status quo. "The Brood are back, and they're worse than ever," Duggan said. "The X-Men must make some hard choices about their pest control services, and what about Broo, the former student at the X-Mansion, we thought he was the Lord Of The Brood? The problems are galactic and it's all hands on deck including Captain Marvel, Rogue, Gambit and Polaris. Check for parasites."

Looking forward to seeing Broo again!
