I give up on complaining about them drawing Elixir's hair blue. I don get why they keep messing that one up

Emma has been unusually pathetic in Necrosha. I saw the previews for the next X-force and she's still whimpering in a corner with the students holding her. She looks like such a loser and its pretty sad to see Emma Frost go down without even a hit.

 

[OutcryX]

Damn. Is Wolfsbane still in this book?

 

[anrrd_2]

^shes pregnant and dying

 

[Havok83]

Damn. Is Wolfsbane still in this book?

She's done absolutely NOTHING since the initial arc where she was kidnapped, drugged up and mauled Warren other than run around, having sex with the Wolf Prince. She is so out of place in this title , its not even funny

 

[anrrd_2]

^ i think thats sort of intentional...she wasn't supposed to be there in the first place. Remeber that logan didn't want her on the team, and thats why she ran off and got captured.

but its such a waste considering how she could have been used in other books. She was great in X-factor and she's noticeably absent from New Mutants. She'd have been put to better uses in those titles rather than being wasted in X-force where she's really not needed nor even being used

Elixir as always is conveniently in a coma. He always gets knocked out right when he could be extremely useful

During the Phalanx Covenant, the story which was a precursor to Generation X, Blink "sacrificed" herself in order to save everyone from the Phalanx. Emma did not know her and trying to establish a connection between them is weak as best as Gen X hadnt formed at that point and Emma didnt know the future students yet

Lil, is Diamond Lil. I dont have any experience with her, but apparently she was a member of Omega Flight. http://marvel.com/universe/Diamond_Lil

 

[OutcryX]

take out the healer...take out the telepath. first rules of engagement for anyone fighting a mutant team, no?

 

[Manic]

I remember back when Elixir's powers worked on himself unconsciously (his hand healed itself from a cut the day he discovered his powers, and his skin turned gold after his body healed itself from a vicious mauling from Wolfsbane). But whatever, he's in yet another coma. I guess we can rely on his powers preventing brain damage from all this blunt trauma he keeps experiencing.

 

[cerealkiller182]

Is Senyaka (or whatever his name) strangling Greedo. I thought Han shot him

 

[UraniaChang]

I don't know why Wolfsbane, as an adult and an experienced soldier/fighter/superhero didn't use protection when having sex.

Unless she wants to have a child, but the timing she chose was a bit weird.

As for Exilir keeps getting knocked out...I suppose every enemy will do their possible to keep him out in a battle, he is kinda like telepaths, you don't want him awake.

 

[Manic]

Doesn't Wolfsbane have issues with premarital sex?

 

[UraniaChang]

She has broke more issues than just premarital sex.

Must have let it all go now.

 

[ChaoticPsylocke]

YES! finally some Dazzler stuff is going on!

i really hope we get more than just what is in that preview. she needs to be involved in something for real.

he's a wolf prince and a different species from Asgard not Earth. Considering he's a different species, its surprising they could even make a child and she's probably as stunned. Her pregnnacy is mystical as she isnt carrying a human or mutant. Its a creature and the doctors dont know what to make of it

Doesn't Wolfsbane have issues with premarital sex?

Back in the 80s. Rahne stopped being an overly religious prude ages ago.

 

[Generation Lee]

Isn't Exlir knocked out because he know exactly what Hope is and if he was awake therefore he would tell and spoil the whole of Second Comming for us???

I'm just guessing here but also if Hope is uber powerful wouldn't she be powerful enough to put even an omega healer out???

 

[Havok83]

Yes he does know what she is. He got knocked out in hte Not Forgotten arc when he saved Surge who's powers went out of control. I think spoiling Second Coming and being an effective and conveneient plot device to fix the Necroshan mutants both play a role in why he's in a coma

I'm just guessing here but also if Hope is uber powerful wouldn't she be powerful enough to put even an omega healer out???

I guess but what does that have to do with anything?

 

[Specter313]

Well, Manic might actually be kinda happy about a death that happened in an issue of X-Force for once, considering who it was.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

The art this week was a bit cluttered

 

[Jennifer Walters]

Yeah. I didn't know if it was the art of Kyle and Yost's writing style or both, but I didn't like the issue very much.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Me neither, but it was lightyears better than Legacy this week. Holy **** :

I didn't like Uncanny last week either. What's going on?

 

[Manic]

Well, Manic might actually be kinda happy about a death that happened in an issue of X-Force for once, considering who it was.

What, was Blue-Skin Metal-Wing Archangel killed, immediately replaced by Blue-Skin Feather-Wing Archangel?

 

[OutcryX]

who was murked?
