Enjoy!!

 

[El Bastardo]

The only writing that was off in #25 were a few pieces of dialogue by Emma and Scott calling Beast "Henry" instead of "Hank."

We've been over this!

 

[Kevin]

no. I read the reading like bad acting. It was off.

 

[UraniaChang]

Back on topic.

Wolvie gets thrown around by Armor in the next issue. Cyke is like 'Nooooooooooo!! Not again!!' Hilarity ensues.

I thought it is because he doesn't want to see one of the two people besides him.

Well, he obviously doesn't want to hear her moan about how things were different while she was busy hijacking the franchise, but it probably isn't just that.

 

[UraniaChang]

Maybe it's because he can't reach BP.

Stop hating Darth....

 

[DarthCyclopsRLZ]

Stop hating Darth....

Nevah.

Considering how a certain someone threw a hissy fit and left the x-books when the evil editors decide to bring Chuck and Cyke back to the forefront, I feel I have every right to.

 

[Bastila]

I forgot to come on here well read the latest issue....didn't like it at all really.....not one part I did like......it just didn't feel.....astonishing to me really....and the art I didn't like much.

Hopefully next issue will be better...I hope, never read an issue of astonishing and not liked it as well

"Messiah Complex" pulled the X-Men team together, "Divided We Stand" tore them apart.

It all starts on a spaceship hovering 300 hundred feet above the twisted wreckage of Chaparanga Beach. Its sole inhabitant: the mysterious Subject X. Five minutes -- just five minutes is all he needs, all he’s asking for. Can the X-Men afford to give it to him?

[El Bastardo]

I wonder how high Ellis was and how much he giggled when he came up with that variation of the fastball special.

 

[UraniaChang]

The girls look like zombies, especially Emma in the second pic.

*And WTH is that expression on Wolverine's face when Armor threw him?*

 

[El Bastardo]

Bliss.

 

[HandOfFate]

I only have one problem...Wolverine's claws are drawn to long.

 

[UraniaChang]

It helps with a certain touchy issue he has with a certain part of his body.

 

[Angamb]

The girls look like zombies, especially Emma in the second pic.

*And WTH is that expression on Wolverine's face when Armor threw him?*

totally agreed. don't they really notice it??

and about Logan face, yes, it seems he's having an orgasm...

 

[UraniaChang]

totally agreed. don't they really notice it??

and about Logan face, yes, it seems he's having an orgasm...

Hence why Scott had a facepalm posture.t:


Logan: *Having a silent orgasm with an obvious blissful expression*

Scott: God, he's doing it again, I ****ing told him he shouldn't make that kind of face around children!

 

[squeekness]

I can't get over how awesome that art is. I love that big Beast pic which I assume is the cover. Awesomeness.

hahaha.

 

[Manic]

For a second there, it looked like Armor was going to spank him.

 

[HandOfFate]

HAAHAHA....

Wait, why does that turm me on...

 

[Bastila]

Cover looks cool.

 

[Brand]

Did Armor's armor (redundant much?) always look like that? The horns seem to be a bit over the top . . . and I swear they're absent at first in the third scan, then suddenly appear in the scene where she grabs Logan.

I'm gonna try not to think too deeply about that. It can't lead to anywhere good.

 

[Brainiac 8]

It seems Armor can create her outer shell to be any shape she wants, so maybe she likes horns...or maybe that was her feelings as she molested Wolverine before she threw him.


On a side note, you see how ashamed Armor seems in that picture after she threw him.

That makes sense. It also gives writers/artists free rein to change her armor's appearance at will with no explanation.

On a side note, you see how ashamed Armor seems in that picture after she threw him.

It looked like the only people having any fun in those scenes were Logan and that tranny posing as Storm. The rest were probably hoping there were no cameras nearby to record them.
