Haven't really read any Savage Dragon in probably a decade but if nothing else, gotta give Larsen a lot of credit for writing and drawing the book for forever. Also for seemingly continuously creating about an enormous amount of crazy bad guys always impressed me.

Pacra posted:This was for a long time my first actual 'comic' - then I remember getting a few comics while I vacationing at the beach one year. One of them was Uncanny X-Men 300, art by JRJR. This issue is one of my all-time favorites as well. It also introduced (well, it was a couple issues prior but this solidified it) the idea of that goofy Bobby Drake as Iceman somehow being an Omega-level mutant and I've been fascinated since at the potential of him as a character and his powers.

purple death ray posted:Or the Morlock from the xmen cartoon who turns into a table so the xmen can eat Christmas dinner I am unfamiliar with this and now must see it. Edit: here's the write up of it, pretty amazing. http://comicsalliance.com/the-x-men-episode-guide-4x12-have-yourself-a-morlock-little-x-mas/ My favorite part of this episode though is Omega-level mutant Jean Grey arguing with a Cajun who speaks in the 3rd person about her cooking abilities. https://youtu.be/eGVMS_WBzJw sticksy fucked around with this message at 18:09 on Sep 28, 2017 |

Dick Trauma posted:I think she proved that she can cook just fine! I'm sure there's tons I just am not aware if but has Phoenix had any/multiple awesome cosmic battles against Galactus? I could see him getting kinda pissed she just overcooked an entire solar system willy nilly that he could've chowed down on. e: ok yeah, there's loads of them, most recently in Generations sticksy fucked around with this message at 19:07 on Sep 28, 2017 |

GPTribefan posted:The worst part about that Atlantis Attacks one was the end. The serpent sons of Set come to that world and are depicted as eating everyone on the planet - shown by having legs dangling upside down out of their mouths. The Watcher then talks about how the serpents ate everyone and are moving to different dimensions AND OURS COULD BE NEXT!!!!!!!!! I vividly recall this issue as a kid and looking back now, think it mildly traumatized me for how nihilistic it was. e: What If #25... The Marvel Super Heroes Had Lost Atlantis Attacks? : sticksy fucked around with this message at 18:26 on Oct 13, 2018 |

Malachite_Dragon posted:I really liked the arcs of Loki trying to be a good person. And Mjolnir considering him worthy pleases me greatly. That is pretty cool. How many people in canon have been considered worthy? Thor, Loki, Cap, Beta Ray Bill, Jane, I'm sure a few more...?

What age was Professor X in the original Uncanny series? He seems like he's always been roughly 50ish while others verrryyyy slowly aged around him. Over 50 years. I'm trying to think of a character who would benefit from aging in real-time.

Mulva posted:Hilariously? He might have been in his mid 30s when the series first started. He was drafted to Korea fairly young, and that was 1950. X-Men started in 63. Even if he was 25 that would still put him at 37 come the beginning of X-Men, and he was probably a little younger than that. The bald thing and hanging around with Magneto makes him seem older than he is. I'm 37 and I think my hair is starting to thin...gently caress!

Endless Mike posted:Look, if there's one thing comic people like to do it's make maps of their alternate realities: I have to admit I do love this part of creating alternate realities and to be fair, Jonathan Hickman is really good at it.

Nilbop posted:It always bugged me that even at the time the Makers were being written as this unstoppable alien race far beyond our power whose return meant our certain doom, Hickman was also telling us about the Ivory Kings, an even more unstoppable alien race even farther beyond our power whose return meant our even more certain doom. Really took the stings and triumphs out of Infinity for me. It was impossible to stop looking past the crisis when we constantly got told how bad the next one would be. Where were the Ivory Kings mentioned? I totally must've missed them somehow, as I always thought the Makers were the Biggest of Bads. Wonder if he was just setting them up for an "Infinity" like event down the line.
