[Manic]

I gotta say, I've been liking To Serve and Protect. These anthology miniseries usually put out the kinds of X-Men stories I'd like to read regularly.

[OutcryX]

so abilities wise..is Jubilee now a wonder woman-esque fireworks wielding vampire?

[Manic]

I think she's just got the gnarly vampire abilities now.

[Cardshark]

How strong is she though, is she stronger then Colossus?

[Manic]

I doubt vampires are that strong. I imagine she should be about as strong as Spitfire/Lady Jac from MI:13, though obviously not as fast.

[JustABill]

Dear Marvel,

Jubilee is much older than seventeen fricking years old. Also why you gotta make all the teenage asian girls on the X-Men asshats? First, Surge? Now, Armor?

[Manic]

Oh god. What'd Armor do?

[JustABill]

Pulled a Surge and *****ed at Jubilee about watching her fangs. Oh, and threw a dumbbell at Rockslide for even daring to talk to their new vampire companion.

[Manic]

I swear, someone at Marvel must be under the impression that Asian girls all hate each other.

[JustABill]

Just waiting for Shan to start *****ing at Jubes too.

[chamber-music]

Is it just me or does every artist these days draw Magneto to look like Richard Gere?

[Specter313]

Hmm, never saw that myself.
