What I learned From Marvel:

[shapeshifter]

heroes that come in the color green have the most rabid fanbase in the history of western society

Also if you are related to an X book in anyway there is a good chance your skin is, was or will be blue

 

[Max J Power]

In fairness this is by no means a marvel-specific peculiarity.

I know, but I read Marvel stuff first, so that's where I learned it.

I dunno if I agree with this one. I dont think there were actually that many blue skinned X-characters.
Night Crawler and Mystique are all that come to mind and they're part of the same bloodline so it's not that unreasonable.

... Oh and Maggot I guess. Who else had blue skin?

 

[Zoken]

Beast, Angel,

 

[Vanguard07]

Beast has blue fur not skin. But I guess that counts.
Still though that's five out of the whole of the x-books respective rosters.
It's probably not even 1/10.

52. For Spider-Man, anything other than the classic red & blue costume is only temporary.

53. Month after month after month, Peter Parker will make the most important, most difficult, and most shocking decision in his history. This decision will be either reconned or forgotten about within six months.

54. If your girlfriend suddenly takes a trip to Paris, she's probably carrying the child of your best friend's dad, who is of course your arch-nemesis.

54 is so the best idea ever.

55. People only stay dead if they are nameless.

56. If you think someone is dead but you didnt directly see the dead body: they arent dead.
If you think someone is dead and you DID see the body, even examined and tested it extensively: It probably still isnt dead.
Forensic science = secrets and lies.

57: You know that death you thought was permenant, ever lasting, REAL... 3...2...1...

58. On occasion, for no real reason your past will change drastically fundamentally altering who you are, why you do things, how you do things. Everything you say do or think is completely irellevant as it will likely change at any second. Go nuts! If you did something that the powers above deem wrong or innapropriate all of reality will forget it ever happened.

59. Every once in a while, your reality will inexplicably merge with another reality for the sole purpose of you fighting someone. Whether or not you defeat that someone depends largely on which of you is more popular in a seperate third reality. This phenomenon is called a crossover.

 

[Zoken]

Corallary to 58... In many of this situations, you will feel the need to scream out "DAMN YOU BENDS!" Go with it, it's natural.

 

[Vanguard07]

LoL indeed.

 

[Blaktin America]

60. You can have the power of 1122233113133131 exploding suns, but that doesn't mean that you get respect.

 

[Zoken]

61: Despite all members of the race knowing, it is possible to still keep it a secret from Whitey

 

[Vanguard07]

62: (referencing #60) If however you are half decent at preparing things or in the description of your past the words "peak human" appear at all you get vastly more respect than you deserve.

 

[Blaktin America]

63. A single drop of blood on the right crystal can make you a whole new person.

64. Red heads are like Kenny on South Park; they die, but they'll be right back.

 

[Zoken]

65: No one cares about the best characters... except Dan Slott

 

[Vanguard07]

63. A single drop of blood on the right crystal can make you a whole new person.

64. Red heads are like Kenny on South Park; they die, but they'll be right back.

65. Touching the wrong chrystal can put you into a coma for years. It can also turn a significantly huge empire and church against you.

 

[Blaktin America]

66. You're short and hairy about 300 yrs old and whenever you think you have it all figure out a new relative/arch-enemy pops up.

67. If you decide to become a superhero, you will meet and/or team up with Spider-Man within the first year (give or take) of your career.

 

[Zoken]

68. That super-nice person you believe to be your friend/ally/mentor. Yeah, he/she is way evil.

69: that super-hot chick the aforementioned person introduced you to... sorry, she's evil too.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

Or will die.

 

[Zoken]

Fine, Corrollary to both 68 and 69. If they are NOT evil, then they will soon die. Thank you Missy

57: You know that death you thought was permenant, ever lasting, REAL... 3...2...1...

Corollary: Characters only stay dead if they died during someone else's origin story.

Or are in any way combat effective.

70. Great advertising,even with bad events like Civil War..can be successful,if you market it to buyers right.
