Heroic Age

[Brainiac 8]

If you read the issue where Scott and Emma took a vacation to the Savage land together and not realize how awesome they are as a couple, then you have no heart.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Jean and Scott is boring so when she returns (probably this year). She needs to stay far away from Scott.

I swear, if Jean starts shacking up with Wolverine, I'm gonna punch something. Anyone else, just please do not bring that f***ing Scott/Jean/Logan triangle back.

 

[kguillou]

Thats why she needs to stay 6 feet under. Logan always had and always will love Jean and bringing her back will only resurface those feelings. Of course, Cyke will be conflicted as well because she was his first true love. Thus we have a love triangle no nobody wants to see again.

This is why I gave up on the Wolverine and the X-men cartoon, i was hoping Emma was going to take Jean's place on that show and do something different for a change but Emma ended up dying and Jean came back, and i have no desire to see Logan and Scott bicker over her again and again.

 

[Franklin Richards]

I'll be glad when everyone remembers that Emma is evil.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

She's not, though. You just hate her. She hasn't been "evil" since Generation X, anymore than Magneto was still evil during New Mutants.

 

[Franklin Richards]

And what happened after New Mutants? What did Magneto do?

I like my heroes a little more heroic.

A tiger don't change her stripes.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

If Emma goes back to being a full-on villain, that's fine. I'm just saying she's not evil right now, she's just a b**** who actually fits in quite well with the X-Men's overall moral ambiguity at the moment. Cyclops, X-Force, and Archangel, at least, sure as hell ain't better than Emma.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Angel is a pale shadow of his former self.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

A pale, murderous, morally unperturbed shadow.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Yup. I've never been a big fan of him, but what has happened to him in recent years is a disgrace. This is the X-Offices thinking...

"Oh the kids loved Angel when he was a Horseman! Let's make him like that permanently! And in the process, destroy everything genuinely interesting about him!"

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I liked him in First Class. But he does tend to be overshadowed by the other X-Men more often than not. Pretty much any other X-Men, in fact.

 

[BoredGuy]

Yeah Angel's cool, but he definitely lacked that certain je ne sais quoi... I think the change was helpful, tho the explanation was a little... lacking

And Corp, to your point above, how would you feel if Jean and Logan got together, but no love triangle, just them being together for a while. I mean, Wolvie HAS to marry a redhead at some point, so why not make it THE redhead....that logan and his gingers..

 

[TheCorpulent1]

No, Jean/Wolverine = fail.

 

[roach]

How about Jean come back and just be Jean and not "Jean, Scott's other limb" or "Jean the chick Logan gets all emo for"

 

[Jennifer Walters]

Jean's not interesting enough to stand on her own. She needs a man or someone else to interact with to be interesting.

 

[roach]

well its official thats not the new Avengers lineup....Spider-woman(Jessica Drew) was announced as being on the team with Iron Man...so far we have Cap, IM and Spiderwoman...so looks like we're going back to the original New Avengers cast.

 

[Raiden]

Jean's not interesting enough to stand on her own. She needs a man or someone else to interact with to be interesting.

It looks like Jean is only interesting when she has the Phoenix Force; writers seemed to forget that when Marvel Girl debuts Jean didn't associate with the Phoenix, but now she's intertwined with this cosmic entity.

 

[roach]

all Jean needs is a writer that will write her as a separate person and not the Phoenix force of Scott's other arm

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

Uhhh... I dunno. Jean has really never been all THAT interesting, because she's really always just been the second half of Scott, who's also not that interesting unless he's either the other half of Jean, or he's offensive by being a total dick.

I'm pretty sure Jean can't pick herself up out of that hole.

Also, Jean/Logan?

Avengers teaser #4:

We kinda knew this one too. Only Spiderwoman has been slightly unexpected so far

[TheCorpulent1]

Yowza, that costume looks even worse when JR Jr. draws it. But I'm just glad Hawkeye's Hawkeye again.

 

[kguillou]

Yea i agree i wish they would update his costume a lil bit though. Not alot, just tweak it a bit, and get rid of that pointy mask thing.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

The mask doesn't bother me. The chainmail arms look awkward to me, and the way Coipel draws that costume, it also has an ugly brown strap covering half his chest.
