Comics X-Men: Emperor Vulcan

Lesser of two saviors.

[DarthCyclopsRLZ]

Liked the first issue. Wasn't expecting another baddie that soon, but oh well.

 

[OutcryX]

Seriously...as if Vulcan wasn't enough...but with him being the sole villain....nobody would ever be able to fully accept him for the hero that he eventually WILL become

 

[El Bastardo]

Oh brother. He's not going to become a hero.

Brubaker made a point of making sure that Vulcan, in all the issues, went far beyond the point of redemption. Yost has said as much. I highly doubt that Yost is going turn him good, or into any type of hero.

He wouldn't even be a hero if he sacrificed himself to save the Shi'ar people and rebels by killing the bad dudes. I figure the Shi'ar people would merely consider it a mistake rectified and happily receive Lilandra back on the throne.

I don't think a single Shi'Ar except Deathbird would shed any tear.

And if they do kill him, better have him go down like an homicidal madman.

 

[Havok83]

As much as Ive hated whats been done, I really dont want him to die now bc I think that would be such a waste and an easy copout. The third Summers plotline was over 10 years in the making. Theres alot of potential here to be explored.

 

[El Bastardo]

And what potential would that be, exactly?

(And do note, all of you, that that is not a smack at Brubaker or Vulcan in the slightest. Do not try to warp it into such. Disclaimer ended.)

'Who's got the craziest girlfriend/most issues' mini?

Can you imagine how many drinks they'd down before even getting close to half-way??

oh please. he is a Summers. Not a Braddock or a Rasputin...hero's blood runs through them veins and no amount of misguided villainy can subdue it. mark my words...he will be a good guy. Corsair will be retconned alive again and Vulcan will be an X-man...perhaps not anytime soon, but its coming. it. is. inevitable.

 

[UraniaChang]

I want Alex to kick Vulcan's butt, but I don't want Vulcan to die, because he's one of the Summers, and I always have a fondness towards all the Summers. Yes, even Vulcan, though he and Stryfe are probably two of the least my favorite.

 

[Manic]

I'd say something snarky about Vulcan only getting an iota of respect from fans because he's a Summers, but I'm the guy who threw a hissy fit when one of the Guthrie kids got depowered.

Probably, eh. Not so sure about daddy, but the definitely the 'good guy' thingy.

Would kinda suck, but oh well.

[OutcryX]

hmmm...i LOVE that Rachel has just been bidding her time to F_CK SH_T UP

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah, Rachel needs to let loose

 

[Manic]

I was waiting for Rachel to go insane during Brubaker's story, but all she did was create a few war casualties.

I want to see her carve a legend of her own as the vulture that ate away the remnants of the once great empire.

 

[UraniaChang]

I think there are enough crazy women in X-world, and frankly speaking, I don't like any of them.

Yeah, we hear enough about Jean eating billions of people

 

[Manic]

Yeah, we hear enough about Jean eating billions of people

Jean didn't eat the people. She ate their sun. Then she had gas. Tragic, really.

 

[Kevin]

Rofl.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Even worse

me 2. I want to see more Scott/Vulcan

 

[OutcryX]

Righ..why is havok the one dealing with the crazy brother? then again, Scott has enough on his plate to deal with than having to handle the crazy bastard brother

 

[Kevin]

I think Havok needs this, so he can be important in the X-world again. And in any case, I'm seeing way too much Scott for my liking in every other book.
