Man, fuck Melee.
I have class from 2 to 4 you jerk, :(
excited to get to 200, amazing issue
>>84445289
>that tiny text box
>Claremont doesn't want to lose another artist
>>84445313
Sorry! I had some free time so I figured I'd do a double session today.
>>84445354
May the new and the old gods bless you, X-Anon.
>>84445459
Alright, but you can keep Virman Vundabar's blessings.
I hadnt realized you had done another storytime after the Iceman mini, Ill read that one now, thanks X-Anon
>>84445289
will x-men story times ever be as hot as the last one?
>>84445530
Let me know if I'm moving too fast, guys.
>>84445546
Maybe when the tentacle hands come back.
>>84445546
Excalibur maybe?
Oh noes! But first...
...an annual!
Who's on art this issue?
also are the other annuals good? I've only read Nightcrawler goes to Hell and the Asgardian stuff (which you wanna talk about a fucked up story)
>>84445900
>Who's on art this issue?
Steve Leialoha.
>also are the other annuals good?
They're a mixed bag, the recent Badoon one we read was really boring for example.
just mentioning, Lemire said in an interview about Death of X that Emma and the Cuckoos are in it.
I suspect one of the Cuckoos got killed, because we know some people died, and I guess it is easy to kill a Cuckoo since you would still have 2.
>>84445939
>Bought the LifeDeath Hardcover
>Almost all BWS' X-work included
>Comes with that Badoon story BWS did with O5
oh..that's....nice
>>84445966
i miss Emma/Scott OTP. That Marvel 1000 thing was a garbage story but GOAT cover
>>84445966
>I suspect one of the Cuckoos got killed
Another one? Jesus.
>>84446021
well, the only 2 dead ones so far were killed in the Morrison run, so they were killed by their creator, one died killing Quentin Quire and the other died during the Xorneto thing.
I have no clue if another one will die, but there will be some deaths, and I think it will be easy to decide to kill a clone when you will still have 2 more clones.
this is the interview from yesterday

"Jeff Lemire: This event has allowed us to write some characters I’ve been dying to write since I started in X-Men, including Emma Frost, Scott [Summers], and The Cuckoos."
>>84445966
>tfw celeste is the last one left standing
Would be better as a non-canon story that explores how she holds onto her identity without a major piece ofnit
That's all for now, come back later for more muties!
>>84446075
This art is so weirdly great and terrible at the same time, I love it. It looks like Out of This World for the SNES.
>>84445998
Just wait brother, Emma and Scott will reunite, eventually and everything will be right in the world.
>>84446427
80s Magik, best Magik.
>>84445334
I'm new-ish here. What's the story behind this?
>>84446548
Claremont was incredibly famous for his purple prose in writing. Lots of words and metaphors and all that shit. He is an excellent author and in a better world he would be heading Marvel Editorial. Although as a result of the tons of words, artists would be be screwed. They lost a ton of space and Claremont would want changes from time to time. Not a problem necessarily, just top quality on both sides making things complected.
>>84446640
So were there any particular artists that he seemed to alienate for this reason? I know he and Byrne had a falling out.
>>84445554
what did nightcrawler do here? amputate him?
>>84446903
I don't think there is anything as bad as the Colossus tree stump incident, but there were reported shit.
>>84446958
Yeah, but hes techno-organic, so he can just get another arm. its all good. That's Warlock's dad.
x-bump
>>84445610
>Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit, those fleshy assholes are going to kill me! Better pretend I decided to spare them and run away!
>>84446548
Byrne left the book because he drew Colossus ripping a stump outta the ground easily and then Claremont added all this text about how hard it was. It was the final straw for the two
I remember in a Daredevil doc JrJr said he was considering quitting comics after X-Men and found his love again in doing Daredevil but I don't know any details.
>>84446640
I guess he's too protective of the characters to be an X-editor or something cause like he basically was for the Xbooks forever.
Good to see you back X-Anon. Was starting to wonder if my timing was just hosed.
>>84449603
I used to fucking love, Byrne.
>>84445310
Not that big into X-Men, but I always liked the interactions between Colossus and Nightcrawler. They always seemed fairly friendly towards each other even though Peter is from Russia and Kurt is from Germany
>>84445696
god.... damnit!!!!
>>84458784
I ALMOST MISSED ALPHA FLIGHT!!!
