The New Improved Official Stupid Question Thread Marvel Edition

[TheCorpulent1]

I thought they were going in an interesting direction with X-23 when they had her developing as a normal girl among the New X-Men for a while. That was certainly different from Wolverine.

Then they put her on X-Force, where everyone is Wolverine by necessity because they're a squad of stabby assassins.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

Yeah, in N-X, 23 was actually like...well...developing as a character. Romances, friends, that junk.

In Force, she's just another, "I kill," character in the mold of Wolverine.

 

[Manic]

Daken is the character I can't stand. He's a villain who is basically evil because he has daddy issues with a good guy. Daken is Wolverine's Stryfe. I didn't even like the original Stryfe.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

In recent stories he is less a villain, more ambiguous antagonist.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

He's also ambiguous towards what gender he likes.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Well he does have that whole "Euro-Trash" look going on, as pointed out by Deadpool

 

[BigSams50]

this might be a random question, but does anybody know any good daredevil TPB's?

 

[Ace of Knaves]

The Man Without Fear is decent. Yellow is good too.

 

[BigSams50]

Thank ya

 

[Ace of Knaves]

No worries

 

[Drakon]

Guardian Devil is a great read, I think.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Never read that one. I'll have a butchers for it.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

You're going to steal it from a butcher?

Guardian Devil, kevin smiths run, was very good. I really liked the story as well as the artwork.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

You're going to steal it from a butcher?

Butchers hook=look.

Not up on your cockney rhyming slang ay?

 

[Manic]

Is it!

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Given that no one I know is cockney and I don't live in England, nope. Rhyming slang's fun but totally impossible to figure out unless someone explains where it comes from. I don't even think of hooks when I think of butchers. I think of cleavers and dirty aprons.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Innit!! That's more chav rather than cockney rhyming slang though.

Heh i was just playing.

But yea theres loads of weird rhyming slang. Apples and Pears=stairs. Dog and bone=phone.

except she's not. Her interactions with Kideon and Hope in Messiah War highlighted the humanity she possesses outside of the killer she was bred to be and Not Forgotten is further showing what a tragic and sympathetic character she is. Does she kill? Of course as thats what she's been bred to do but theres more layers to her. She's shown that she's willing to kill herself if thats for the greater good of saving millions of other and she has a caring side and an odd sense of humor that not everyone quite gets. All of this has been portrayed within the pages of X-force. She hasnt been all stab stab, kill kill despite what people may think

 

[Kitsune]

Diamondback and Sharon Carter are the only ones I know of. Sersi wanted him for a while but he rejected her advances.

Am I the only one who remembers Bernie Rosenthal?

 

[Manic]

But yea theres loads of weird rhyming slang. Apples and Pears=stairs. Dog and bone=phone.

Huh. Suddenly a joke from a series 2 episode of Doctor Who makes a lot more sense to me.

 

[Panthro]

So what's going on with Lady Sif from the Thor titles?

 

[Anubis]

She's back in her real body.

 

[MarvelWarrior]

Is Moonknight crazy or dead a Egyptian god really bring him back from death and is talking to him? I never did get this.

 

[Anubis]

Little bit of both.
