Must be nice having rich friends.

I liked how smart Bobby was here! He's usually not so scientifically inclined with his abilities. And I guess it doesn't take a physicist to figure this out but there's a satisfaction to someone being clever in a very comprehendible way.

Tarantino saying that what Polanski didn't wasn't rape, but rather "just" statutory rape is so gross on so many levels. One, because statutory rape is rape (it's in the name) and Two, the victim said no to Polanski several times and he did it anyway.

That's rape, Quentin. Fuck you.

So I went down to the gas station because I needed to pump my tires. I get some 4loko while I'm there and go "this'll make the weekend weird."

I think "it might be fun to drink this and play X-Men Legends," then I'm thinking "hey, I should stream that!"

Problem is I have no idea how to do that.

Ryan North once made an interesting comment about The Walrus. He pointed out that if he has the proportionate strength of a walrus, he should really be slower and weaker than an ordinary human, since walruses are larger than a human.

Holy crap, this reading order is making me work for the next main X-Men issues. There's all these new defenders, a shitton of new mutants, then they have a micronauts crossover miniseries, a single issue of the main book, then secret wars! Madness.

So full disclosure, I completely approve of the way Moondragon beats Power. I think purging his invasive consciousness from his son's body that he's possessing is the morally correct thing to do, I think if Power was of sound mind he'd agree. That said, I don't buy that it was the ONLY way.

Another lovely cover from this run, this time by Frank Cirocco.

I'd like to think there's some Bill Sienkiewicz inspiration in it, but that might very well be a "guy who's only seen boss baby" take. Either way, very 80s, in the best way.

So, let me get this straight. Not only is Warren making moves on Moondragon while he's together... nay LIVING with Candy, but he doesn't even talk with her before using their home as a base of operations.

"Fine art" and it's Al gooner nonsense.

Was not expecting the New Mutants to be catching strays.

This is before they established Bobby's parents were bigoted. BUT, I believe this is the writer, DeMitteus, who did, and shortly before. So perhaps there will be hints. It does feel like a bit of a teaser for the Iceman miniseries at the very least.

Fury was 100% asking for this, after bragging that no one ever escapes from SHIELD (something which almost certainly isn't true by 1983).

Comics should have 40-60 pages of story and come out once every two months on cheaper paper and everyone should be paid more and we should still seize the wealth of the parent companies by force and distribute it to the creators
Anyone have a particularly hot comic take?

I'm a Mystique defender in so far as I'll defend her when people claim she only wanted Rogue for her power. She and Destiny absolutely, sincerely loved that girl.

Yeeeeah I don't know if we needed such a convoluted reason for the original defenders to disband. But I do like the new defenders. They're fun characters.

Question, was the original Ultimate Jean Grey meant to look like Rachel? Or was that a coincidence?

Posting a comic cover I love.

Something that confuses me of this era of Hulk, and maybe I should actually read his comic before wondering this. He's supposed to be Banner in control, right? But he has his preestablished relationship with the Defenders from when he was savage?
