Hey!

i knew i forgot somebody.

 

[Manic]

Most pencilers who leave their pencils totally clean like that also do their own coloring. Choi and Oback must be totally in synch.

 

[javi1024]

His stuff's actually quite simple, it's Oback that tends to add a majority of the detail in the inking and coloring phase:

ha i never noticed Logan's claws are going though Domino's shirt. oh and i just noticed a Sonia boo boo- Choi drew Domino's chin raised, but her highlights and colors lowers her chin and elongates it.

 

[ChaoticPsylocke]

yeah thats been bothering me for months. her chin creeps me the eff out. otherwise, i think this is one of the best covers ive ever seen.

Depending on where you live, you could try one of my two favorite online stores -- www.mycomicshop.com or www.milehighcomics.com. Both of these guys are usually pretty well stocked and their quality high. I've bought a ton of stuff from them.

Speaking of “back in the day,” RoguishGurl wants to know if the ol’ gang will ever get back together.

In “Messiah War,” X-23 interacted with her old friend from NYX, Kiden Nixon. This made me very nostalgic for “NYX” and X-23's interactions with the NYX cast. Will that group ever meet with X-23 again? And if that can't happen, will we ever see X-23 address her NYX days more fully?

JEANINE SCHAEFER: There are plans in the works for X-23, although I’m sorry to say I can’t get into them much right now. I know it seems like deflection, but if you love X-23, you’re not going to want to miss the journey we’re taking her on, both in “X-Force” and outside it. As it is, a pretty big chapter of her life is being dealt with right now in “X-Force,” and issue #19 is going to see some huge hurdles for her to get over.

Does anyone have any idea where Yost and Kyle are going with this Rahne and Wolf Prince plot? It shows up every few issues but its so far removed from everything else and doesnt seem to serve much of a purpose or leading towards anything for X-force. The Selene/Wither was kind of in its position before but at least I could see where that was heading. However with Rahne/Wolf Prince, I keep asking myself, what are they doing here?

 

[javi1024]

im still trying to figure out what Rahne is still doing on the team if she goes crazy the first issue, is unconscious in the second, and leaves by the third.

She's not even on the team and actually never really was. Her inclusion in this book really doesnt seem to make much sense

 

[Manic]

KY are doing it purely out of spite toward me. They snatched her from X-Factor, and now they're keeping her out of New Mutants.

the funny thing is that everyone else in this title (except for Vanisher) still have roles in other books. Warren is an active member of UXM and has been one of the main members of hte science club, Wolverine is everywhere, Domino, X-23, Elixir and Warpath are used in UXM and in the crossovers. Rahne? Nope. For some reason she is locked to only this title and not even allowed to make any outside appearances even though she's barely used over here. I dont get it. Why cant she be a New Mutant/X-man and appear in X-force on the side when they want her?

what was Warren's reason for being in the x-club? hes no scientist.

 

[Manic]

He and Hank are homies.

 

[Havok83]

He and Hank are homies.

not to mention, Im sure his money will come in handy considering scientific research is pretty expensive

 

[Manic]

That too. Although Warren has pretty much been funding everything through his Mutantes Sans Frontiers charity.

 

[javi1024]

exactly. so besides taking down godzilla monsters single-handedly i dont see why hes really a member of that team. same for Betsy but we dont really know they extent of her affiliation with them.

They should hit up Sunspot and Lila Cheyney for cash, they're kinda rich.

well she's loaded too but Im not sure if she has access to her money between all that time she's spent dead and travelling across different universes. She is probably involved with them bc she used to be close to Warren and Hank. She probably feels more comfortable being around them instead of just sticking around waiting to take orders from Scott and Emma

Does anyone even know where Lila Cheney is? I cant remember when the last time she was used. Has she shown up post-M day?

 

[Manic]

I'm actually surprised Bobby's money has never come up. Back when he was in the New Mutants, his family was fronting money for a whole bunch of stuff. He was taking his teammates to Rio and setting them up in an expensive mansion. Hell, his family's money is the only reason he and his dad were allowed in the Hellfire Club.

Rogue also has a bunch of money that nobody ever brings up. She inherited Destiny's fortune, which is a good 100 years worth of savings, investments, a few houses, and her take from heists committed with Mystique.

He lost access to his money at the end of his X-force stint but I dont know if it was every brought up that he got control of it back

i never knew she was close the Hank. she joined long after he left, i always saw her paired with either Warren or Logan in the 90s (when she wasnt trying to bone Scott ) and then she died in the beginning of Xtreme.

and i was just thinking about what happened to Lila too. i never knew/cant remember what happened to her after Muir Island Saga.

 

[Manic]

I remember Lila popped up at the end of X-Treme X-Men. She transported everyone back to New York.

They were in the Blue team together. They were never really written as close until Claremont wrote them in X-treme. Apparently he had a crush on her back when she was modelling and she died saving his life from Vargas. When they reunited after she was resurrected he licked her on the face, so they seemed pretty close then

Too bad the X-men havent kept in contact with her. She would be pretty useful when it comes to linking them up with the Starjammers and Earth

...youd think Hank was still human enough to just give her a big hug and a regular kiss on the cheek.
