I love it
>>82388071
He's such a fucking weeb.
Have we got to Protus yet?
The fun thing rereading is noticing how Claremont layered and moved the plots
What's Wolverine's favorite anime, /co/?
>>82388133
No.
>>82388148
Devilman. Always bet on Devilman.
>>82388133
Not yet.
>>82387649
I missed you X-anon
it been like, two days?
>>82388148
Rapeman
I'm not even kidding
>>82388206
Only a day, it's just that my latest storytime died early.
>>82388228
>whoa whoa whoa lady, we're super heroes, not problem solvers.
>>82388257
unacceptable.
I will bump better next time
>>82388286
Get hype
>>82388286
Hey, Arcade when he was young and happy before that fuck Hopeless ruined him.
>>82388291
Don't worry, it happens. I was actually awake when it died, I was just more concentrated on organizing the next storytimes.
>>82388286
I never realized it before, but I really like double titles.
>>82388329
A Spidey guest issue? I'm in
>>82388374
it's your mutant power.
storytiming.
Speaking of, for anyone that's curious I've organized this thing all the way to Marvel NOW already. Things get a bit trickier now (heh) though because the only titles I read from this era are Spurrier's stuff and All-New Doop.
>>82388329
why is Spidey's head about to be fertilized?
>>82388496
Didn't your parents tell you where babies come from?
>>82388438
I'm dropping out after Messiah Complex personally
>>82388001
Given that we never see Scott calling Hank (assuming he's still an Avenger, it's not like he'd be hard to reach), I can only presume that he didn't tell anyone.
>>82388566
Understandable.
>>82388233
Oh god, please tell me that's canon.
>>82388592
>>82388628
Jesus, do they even lock the front door on the Mansion?
One thing that makes me wonder is that x-men are mostly known for some civil rights bullshit.
Meanwhile, they introduced like half of the cool concepts to the marvel
>savage land
>arcade
>shiar
>brood
>phalanx
>madripoor
>genosha
>imperial guard
>krakoa
>hellfire club that has a lot of members, including Tony Stark
>alpha flight
among others, perhaps.
A lot of people say that x-men should be in their own universe. But imagine marvel universe without a single x-men concept or contribution.
Just imagine
>>82388762
this is exactly why it's so sad that FF are gone and X-Men are a shadow of their former greatness.
>>82388815
FF being gone is the biggest offender.
FF is like 80% of the marvel, with Spider-Man being the 20%.
With that said, they had their best time behind them. They are too conservative for this world.
I mean, a family team? Fuck no.
>>82388863
also, cont.
X-Men themselves were modeled after FF
>>82388863
I wouldn't mind their book being canceled if they survived on guest appearances. Shit, Doctor Strange lived on that for decades.
>>82388863
They love their dad and he loves them back!?!? CHECK YOUR PRIVILEGE!
>>82388871
I love the lettering on his optic blast. (See how I kept this post on-topic?)
>>82388895
Doctor Strange deserves much better than what he got. Doctor Strange should be a vertigo-tier book. Just think about it.
>>82388917
>They love their dad and he loves them back!?!? CHECK YOUR PRIVILEGE!
Worse. They have a jew looking like a Golem. It's 100% anti-semitism. The dude that created The Thing must have been a Nazi (in case of autists, this is sarcasm)
>>82388762
That's because Claremont was a creative geniuses. Dude was on a few other books and ended up bringing characters to the X-Men.
That steel guy who hijacked the Danger Room (Warhawk, I think)? Early Iron Fist villain. Same with Sabertooth and Mystique, as we all know.
>>82388928
For fuck's sake Piotr, you've been there for 10 minutes and you've been brainwashed into a commie killing machine?
>>82388964
>>82388995
>Frank Miller Cover
>Perez and Austin interiors
You have my attention
>>82388981
People know Claremont only from the X-Men.
But he also did Iron Fist, Ms Marvel, Satana, Dracula, Marvel Team-Up (spider-man), Dr Strange, few Hulk stories, War is Hell (brilliant), Man-Thing, Spider-Woman, Original Starlord (with Byrne, Orzechowski, Austen!!!!)
>>82389050
>Original Starlord
Technically, I believe Englehart did Star-Lord first.
>>82389077
They did, and Claremont did the very next Starlord story, the one that made him a classic. Funny trivia: in the afterword for the reprinted version (there were like 3 different version), he basically wrote that he was a huge sci-fi nerd, which is why he introduced Shi'ar and Imperial Guard and Starjammer in the X-Men. It was his fave genre being used in the comic he wrote at the time.
Also notice that Claremont, like no other, was capable of playing along with other writers. I already mentioned it in previous thread, but Clare actually wrote Cassandra Nova in X-Men The End, and gave her a motivation, instead of her being a lolrandom evil sibling trope.
He didn't ignore other writers' work. Nope, he actually used continuity to write stories
>>82389080
I miss characters reading files of old team reports to know about obscure shit.
>>82388438
Colleen doesn't know that Jean's alive? Also, this is a cute ship.
I noticed that x-threads tend to have a lot of interesting obscure trivia. Is it always the case?
>>82389256
Sometimes, yeah. It's pretty cool and one of the reasons I felt compelled to start this storytime.
>>82389256
Let's see when that holds true when the 90's happen and Claremont fucks off.
>>82389267
How long until they turn the Danger Room into a holodeck?
>>82389256
Yes.
>>82389267
the amount of detail in that page is minfucking.
albeit cockrum was even more detailed.
Futurians was his strongest work. And as a matter of fact, they would be an X-Men spin-off had Cockrum not took Furutians to lodestone, a move that he regretted. The team had a lot of X-Men rejects anyway, but it's funny thing to know that there were many crossovers that never happened.
Beside X-Men / Futurians, there was also Cerebus / X-Men in the works, as well as X-Men / Nexus. Notice that both Cerebus and Nexus are "deep" indie comics.
>>82389322
I think when they rebuild after the Brood fuck them up
>>82389308
After 90s a lot of interesting thing happened as well, albeit in more unsuspecting way.
Face it, for better and for worse, the muties attracted normies to the larger marvel, even if they didn't really interacted with them. This is something that is baffling, because I myself got into marvel thanks to X-Men, but when I read most of the marvel stuff, the X-Men are never mentioned, or anything.
>>82389389
cont.
as a matter of fact, I had this feeling like marvel were embarrassed of the x-men for some reason
>>82389389
I'm not talking about the "muh extreme!" comics, I was more referring to 90's comics being increasingly more the artist's story instead of the writer, to the point where Claremont left, feeling that he was basically a glorified dialogue writer and nothing more.
>>82389485
this guy really doesn't know how to ask for help
I am only interested in 90s to 2003 era of x-men, i Really dont know what happend to the x-men in Those 13 years.
It's been like 7 years since I've read through these, never noticed how stacked Storm was drawn.
>>82389504
90s were a weird time. You had Silver Sable getting her own ongoing, something that would be impossible today.
People make fun of the 90s in term of the art, but comicwise, the era wasn't really that different. After Claremont left, you had two main x-books. Lobdell, doing character driven stories, and very depressing stories, I might add, despite Lobdell being a comedian by profession. And Nicieza, who was interested in doing street-level stories, with some social commentary, like he did with New Warriors.
X-books had a consistent quality, and even 90s hold a lot of gems. The biggest problem of the 90s were the tropes, but they can be easily overlooked if you don't sperg when seeing them.
>>82389522
At the time, he was known mostly as an Avengers villain. According to the Masterwork introduction (I can post them if you want when I get back tonight OP), they were basically pulling a Terminator 2 with this.
>>82389522
I like the silent "No" by Storm.
it reminds me of this animation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1urscLw2NN0
on the one hand fuck yeah Perez, on the other booooo Arkon
>>82389533
You'll have to wait then.
Take some wine, and drink.
>>82389549
it's something that Byrne was attacked for.
He even said something to an extent in Amazing Heroes that "yes, my characters will have boobs, except Kitty, she will be delicious flat chest. Also, Carmine Infantino draws banana tits, I even made a picture mocking Infantino"
>>82389598
Sure, why not?
>>82388964
Oh wow, this is going to be the 1st time I've ever read this story in color. I've only seen it in the Essentials.
btw, X-Anon, will you storytime X-Men / New Titans crossover. It had Perez on art
That anon reminded me of him>>82389677
>>82389154
Lotta Shi'ar stuff then was Cockrum too.
>>82389711
you're literally me. picture not included
>>82389686
speaking of kitty...
we'll get to 129 today, right OP?
>>82389594
To quote JSA-Anon, there was once a time where X-Man could get a 50 issue solo.
When was the last time a Marvel book got that high?
>>82389723Yes,that was my surprise crossover
>>82389750
Cockrum characters were obviously rejects from Legion of the superheroes. It's just that Cockrum and Clare had a great chemistry, and they both had the same taste in sci-fi and comics. They both are trekkies, but so is Byrne
>>82389787
Marvel is in a sad state.
That's why we celebrate their best part.
The funny thing is, this time, X-Men won't save their asses. This time, Disney will close the doors, and marvel will probably publish only tie-ins to movie, in case they will continue their gimmick ways. Or they will only publish Star Wars comics.
>>82389598
Speaking of Terminator, the Rachel/Nimrod story that's coming up in ~70 issues is obviously inspired by the first movie. Not 1:1 but a robot and a human coming back in time from a world where the robots betrayed us is close enough. Combine that with the release dates (October 1984 for the movie, March 1985 for Nimrod) and the influence is clear.
>>82389778
Yeah, if all goes as planned.
>>82389439
Scott x Storm is an underrated ship.
>>82389804
>>82389871
god damn perez gets me hard
>>82389904
I don't like Storm in any of her relationships.
>>82389987
>storm will never be this mindbogglingly sexy in a live action adaptation ever
>>82389989
that's very racist
>>82390016
okay, find a slim black woman with huge tits and moderate ASS. yup.
>>82390016
That's because 2D is superior
>>82389989
Liar.
>>82390055
Black girls with those proportions really aren't that uncommon.
>>82390106
delete this
>>82390106
no pics in storytimes!!!!! delete!
>>82390106
C'mon man, don't be a dick. Delete your image.
>>82390106
Daily reminder that the Doom who flirted with Storm WAS, in fact, the real Doom, pretending to be a Doombot, pretending if was Doom.
>>82390121
>>82390146
>>82390152
It's fine, just don't go crazy with the image posting, we'll be getting pretty close to image limit.
>>82390334
according to Robinson.
>>82390401
I was referring to Ewing, actually.
>>82390427
For some reason I was thinking about that FF annual.
how do you all feel about Cyclops's beams being solar charged? do you prefer the punch dimension?
should stuff like this be ignored in continuity?
btw, iirc Xavier blew up a Sentinel with a mind bolt, and Emma Frost could blow shit up too, later they lost the ability, or it was never referenced again (although Emma does shoot beams in the Konami X-Men arcade in which she is a boss, and in the Fox cartoon)
Anyway Ewing is liked by continuityfags, even if his stories leave me cold, like a cocoa in my mug.
>>82390512
I prefer the punches myself.
>>82390512
for me it's not important how, it's important the result. Punch dimension sounds retarded, but so does Franken-Castle, and I loved that. I don't think it should be utilized or revisited, but someone who has a talent can revisit it.
Solar charge is superior
>>82390512
It's more or less the same thing nowadays. Cyclops is still solar-powered, it's just that the energy his body metabolizes powers the portals in his eyes.
Now that I typed that out, that seems needlessly stupid, but I guess you gotta justify someone being able to dish out more energy than a nuclear reactor despite being solar-powered.
>>82389989
But Scott and Storm have never really been an item. They would be the ultimate team parents!
>>82390512
I prefer solar, if only because it explains why he gets tired.
That said, I've had a question since the Silver Age. When Scott's glasses fall off, why does be always try to cover his eyes with his hands? Surely his optic blasts can't get through his eyelids, yes? Why doesn't he just close his eyes?
>>82390747
There were a couple of times where they did get through his eyelids, iirc
>>82390734
Claremont hinted it in God Loves Man Rapes story.
There was something going on, it's just that it was dropped.
>>82390747
He does close his eyes sometimes, I guess it's just because covering his eyes is more dramatic-looking.
>>82390734
Blue and Gold teams were a thing.
>>82390747
they do get through his eyelids, but since the power doesn't destroy his eyelids, it can be assumed that his skin has a mutant immunity.
still, as other anon said, when cyclops loses his glasses, the shit hits the fan
>>82388001
I think he thought the X-Men bought the farm and/or quit.
So why not fuck off into space with the cute bird girl?
>>82390816
full on Xavier mom
>>82390812
>it can be assumed that his skin has a mutant immunity
It does. Then there's that whole "mutant powers don't work against family members" thing, so Havok is also immune.
>>82390877
Havok and Cyke are immune to each other.
It would make for nice yaoi.
But I suspect that it already exists
>>82390816
Has anyone seen Iceman or Angel since any of this shit started?
>>82390877
the mutant powers dont work against family members also affects Banshee and Black Tom iirc
>>82390892
He was busy championing the faggots
Covered in other thread, surprisingly inspired by x-anon. Oh the woe
>>82390892
Iceman and Angel went to LA and formed the Champions with Hercules, Black Widow, and Ghost Rider.
>>82390927
yup. Cyclops was Byrne's favorite to the point that Cyke was Mr X-Man for Byrne.
What is the most sexual thing that Claremont ever wrote in the x-men ?
>>82390927
Got to love super geometry powers!
>>82391065
There's quite a bit.
>>82388086
I missed the 2nd panel condom every other time I've read this comic.
>>82388086
>Dickie Mckenzie
>>82391144
"Yuri Gagarin commanded me to kill my friends in the name of Mother Russia!" would have been a lot more believable than a beloved KGB agent.
>>82391112
peter :)
>>82391286
Is that the guy whose boat the X-men trashed, so he visited Muir Island for bloody revenge?
>>82391354
yep
>>82388684
>Lucite
>conducting electricity
>>82391505
Wasn't "Imperial Center" the name for Coruscant during Palpatine's reign?
>>82388863
>a family team? Fuck no.
Wrong.
>>82389341
I always wonder how many homages and in-jokes I miss in the detailing I think I see a SPACE:1999 comlink in there with Banshee...
>>82389561
>Does Colossus look like a bitch?
>Nyet, motherfucker!
>>82391861
Nice boob physics in panel 4.
>>82387649
Colossus was always my favourite fucking X-Man. He was kind of shit in Deadpool, unfortunately. But thanks for this OP. Diggin' it.
>>82391928
Why is Mastermind so much better than Phoenix Jean Grey?
>>82390515
Petey and Logan get bondage gear?
>>82392217
Jean and her kids have raw power, people like Emma and Jason are more skilled. Although he's not as strong as Jean, Xavier has both.
>>82391683
>Wolverine frowning in the back with a beer
God dammit Logan.
