Shhhh!! Selective memory is the key.



That was my take on it as well. I mean, she looked about right age-wise for that scenario.

yes she looks much younger then the adult kitty pride. If she convinces the young Jean Grey to go back in time then the adult Jean Grey will cease to exist. This reminds me of that Dr. who episode called the girl who waited.
 
Battle of the atom

OW LAWD OMG THIS IS GREAT. JUMPING FOR JOY YES YES YES.

Ending of x-factor was really well done. PADs run has been an amazing ride. cant wait to see what happens next.

also

Lets hope the baby is real this time, it ended pretty badly last time
 
If you get the 3D covers don't leave them anywhere that is hot.

They can melt apparently.

If you think that's bad when Canada got it's new twenty's if you left them in a car on a hot day they could burn up like bacon.

No joke.
 
DC has been on fire lately. TW was great and Forevil (I'm coining that right now) has potential to being the best event of the year.
...Yeah, I didn't buy into any of that. :|

I bought this, which I had completely written off because of the awful grimdark Silvestri cover they solicited with; but then, I caught the Comics Alliance article on it and saw that Quinones was doing a Harley/Ivy story, and Samnee was doing a story too, and nary a New52 influence in sight other than that eyeroll inducing cover, and I was like "why not."


Sticker shock at that cover charge, though. Marvel's conditioned me to ask "where's my digital code, DC?"

EDIT:

dcbs delivery from fed ex was mark delivered when i'm fairly sure it was implausible for them to deliver it when they said they did, i was home and never got the shipment.

:( :(
Delivery driver is eBay-ing your 3D covers as we speak.

What do I need to get the most out of Infinity. I figured I would need to read Hickmans Avengers, New Avengers and that Thanos Rising mini what else? Do I need to read that whole Annhilation saga and guardians of the galaxy too and Infinity Gauntlet?
 
Concerning Battle of the Atom:
Are they going to clear up whether it was all of the Future X-Men that traveled back, or just some? Because if it's all of them, then there's a continuity issue with present Iceman being alive until the future and past Iceman dead...

Fairly sure it was intended from the start. Tiberius Stone sounds very close to Tyler Stone. Horizon was also first introduced by Slott at the start of big time and Stone has had a somewhat prominent role since the start of Big TIme. Slott also wrote the Shattered Dimension game, which featured Miguel, but that's more of an aside.

Ugh. Okay, I'll need to find a trade of Big Time then.
 
So at the end of Trillium, there was some art in the back for a new Vertigo book called Coffin Hill? Looks interesting.

Psh. I read Annihilation way back when. I just Wiki'd the shit about Avengers and New Avengers. I'm really just reading Infinity and Guardians.
 
I just finished Battle of the Atom and anxm.

I mean, it was fine and all....but I'm not sure what all the yelling is about.

Some people seem to have misinterpreted a certain reveal in Part 2 to mean something that Marvel has made fairly clear that they have no intention of doing anytime soon.
 
Its funny observing the DC and Marvel bias in this thread. Im not free of it, its just funny taking a step back and observing it.
 
[/QUOTE]

uh, why?

I'm just not clear why [spoiler]Jean Grey in another X-men team out of time is all that shocking when we've had that going on for the last few months. Not too mention, as discussed, I was more under the impression this is the future version of the Jean currently trying to stay with the X-Men.[/spoiler] With the reactions I've seen here today I was expecting something pretty shocking.

Honestly I'm just not a fan of Johns. Dunno why, but I could never get into his stuff. So when he does an event or whatever I can't say I get all that into it.
 
People tend to be for one or the other.

Though some can enjoy the merits of both.


I think there has to be sides, its unavoidable. Cost $300-500 a month to pull an average DC fans pulls plus indies and a Marvel fans pulls plus indies. I like comics, im sure I would enjoy a bunch of Marvels stuff and if I had the money I would buy it. Marvel does not have my beloved Batman though.

Wait, when is Batman Black and White out? That looks cool

edit: seems its out already, hmmm shall pick that up on friday.

Par 2 REVEAL SPOILER:
Well, they've been setting up multiple alt-reality Jean Greys for some time and bringing back the Phoenix, AoA Jean, Teen Jean. They are making some kind of big move. I'm gonna take a guess and say real-Jean comes back for the 50th anniversary at the end of this crossover. Hell, they even split up Cyke and Emma.

I don't think average fans buy the entire line :P
 
Just read X-Men Legacy, and oh man this has to be the best non-popular X-Men book out there:
In the last pages, David totally shreds Cyclops' credibility

That would be pretty interesting,
what team would she join? I can't imagine her being very happy with Cyke after what he did
.

We can argue specifics with regards to when and how, but it's pretty obvious that Jean will be back at some point. I'm actually impressed that they kept her on ice for close to a decade now.

She'll forgive him when Xavier is back in 2015 :P

EDIT: Whoops wrong tag!

Not only that but as of last issue, Teen Jean isn't even that interested in Scott as a boyfriend anymore-she hooked up with Hank.

i think it's so great that Teen Jean is now on the run to avoid bring sent back to her own time...with Old Jean trying to catch her younger self to FORCE her to go back-which means she will then cease to exist. And then she even said she's more powerful than Professor X so she'll prevent her mind wipe. So there is no scenario where this is going to work out for everyone. Plus the irony of Jean wearing that helmet...

Interesting theory, but I'm just not seeing it, based on the stories in question, how AvX ended, and what Brevoort says every time he's asked about it on Formspring.

I'm going to guess that
this event ends with the reunification of the X-Men. Or at least a greater level of cooperation. Jean will be back, there will be new costumes, probably all new #1s. What better way to do a 50th anniversary?
 
Random question, can someone fill me in on Marvel's omnibus stuff? I'd love to pick up the Astonishing X-Men and the Ultimates but not for $150+. Any chance these get reprinted or is it a pipe dream?

Teen Jean thinks she is more powerful than she is. She got her ass handed to her by the Cuckoos. Xavier would beat her without breaking a sweat.

I believe some of these have been reprinted in the past. I'm not really an omnibus guy, but didn't they re-release Morrison's run in the recent past? I don't think either of the books you mention would be out of the question. They are sort of perennial runs.

Actually this point was not exactly that. Jean just kissed Hank to see if it would change the future because she found an invitation to her and Scott's wedding. She checks again after she kisses Hank to see if the names change.

This is true-I was under the impression though that she really did have a crush on Hank.

Didn't she just do that with Hank to see if she could change her future? I think the way she reacted this week in issue 1 says a lot.

Jean/Cyke is so played out. Hell so is Jean/Wolverine. I liked Cyke/Emma :\

Be crazy if they did do that though. It's been what, 10 years?
 
This is true-I was under the impression though that she really did have a crush on Hank.

More recent spoilers again:

She did try to convince Hank to run away with her first in this week's issue. Scott was her second choice. Bendis has been doing a pretty good job at writing her as a normal self-centered teenager instead of a saint.

And team Cyclops/Jean will reign supreme while Spike cries in this thread about Logan.
 
Holy shit at Rafael Albuquerque's short in Legends of the Dark Knight! Holy shit god damn. Well I think Grand Harrier said hes getting it so maybe you can geek out with me once you read it.
