Hmmmmm... I do like things riddled with tragedy, this is true... Okay... Tell me more. Is the first TPB out? Can you show me any art from the series regular artist?

I binge read vision a few days ago. Very good, but depressingly sad. I can't tell if liked the Victor part. Very well done, but not a great outcome for a character I love.

The first trade is out, yeah. The premise is Vision builds himself a family - a wife, a son and a daughter. The series is, basically, a suburban psychological thriller. It's really unsettling and creepy. A fairly shocking event in the first issue leads to the gradual break-down of the family. Originally Posted by Kieran_Frost

No. No LGBT content, unfortunately. But it does have Shakespeare as metaphor for masturbation. Originally Posted by Kieran_Frost

It's an amazing book. Actually it would make a cool Netflix series. Originally Posted by Magnito

That was a very sad and yet at the same time sort of sweet moment. Originally Posted by Anduinel

He got what he wanted most.
Mind you, it's dificult to be happy for him. Given what he did leading up to that moment.

Now that there's a Runaways TV series in the works, I suspect we'll see Vic revived sooner rather than later. I'm really of two minds over how I'll feel if his stint on The Vision gets ignored or handwaved off, though. It was really affecting and I feel like he should have to live with the consequences. But at the same time, that all stems from the retcon regarding his addiction, and that felt forced to the point that I wouldn't mind losing it at all. Originally Posted by NexusTenebrare

And apparently Ellis is relaunching Wildstorm.
I see mention of a couple of Authority characters, but nothing on Apollo and Midnighter. My guess is that they've made the jump to the DCU proper successfully enough that they won't be included. Though it would be interesting if we had a re-imagined Mid and Apollo included over in the new WS as well as the ones Steve Orlando is handling.

Marvel should just jump the shark and say that Storm is bisexual
It's not like Marvel has the rights for movies anyway

They should but at this point I don't even care about her sexuality anyway, I hate Storm now. If Marvel confirmed that she's bi the only part of it that would make me happy is seeing how pissed-off it gets all the people who always fight tooth-and-nail to argue that she's totally straight.

And it's not like it would affect the Fox movies anyway.
