I dont hate it. But i do prefer some island full of mutants in the background.
I'm so intrigued by this Heir of Apocalypse series. Wish it were more of an event than an in-between eras sort of thing.
Wasn't sure where to put this (maybe we need an X-News Misc thread) but...

It's great to see X-Men in major Marvel collab marketing again.

Negasonic Teenage Warhead seems random AF. I guess because she was in the Deadpoool movies, but still. These are comic versions on the bottles. Not film versions.

A comic book shops which still only sells comics (and coca cola) and is run and frequented by young people actualy interested to buy and read the comics?
Yeah that's definetly more fantasy than the merch comming alive.
The comic look is to give them "source material legitimacy" of sort, but they will more likely use the characters the casual audience actualy knows from cinema, tv and perhaps video games, which is where most of them will get exposed to or know them from.
The comics might aswell just be posters these days in terms of how much people will notice them and associate their art with the characters.
Infact the Juggernaut sequence also highlights that when people think of super hero comic interiors they more often have an art style, coloring and panneling in mind that resembles the standard of the 80's and to a degree 90's, rather than much of the last 20 years. Which goes to show where the impact on pop culture essentialy got cut off.

Makes sense. Glad to see Cable there in that case. Wolvie was a given.
