>>78688949
...Is it a storytime of pain?

Not really. It's not good, but it's entertaining

>>78688985
Nah, it's actually good. Especially when you compare it to what came later.
It's funny. The more Carol became a sensible and competent hero, the less I actually liked her.
A vaguely psycopathic hero being their own worst enemy while still trying to do good - that's something I want to read about.
A beacon for all mankind to look up to who only does good at all times and is loved by everyone - I couldn't care less.

Cheers, OP.

KSD is a woman.

Oh my god, she threw her pussy at him!

So is Immonen. And they never give her shit

>>78689506
Was just about to wonder if her powers include some way to breathe in space.

Man I miss the old costume.

Also, anyone know the source for this...ah, adventure?

>>78689613
Is there a reason why her face looks... very off?

My sides. This is great

They do now, fyi.

>>78689680
ah thanks, i have to read that

>>78689784

You don't. All you need to know is that Claremont did damage control and gave Miss Marvel's powers to Rogue.

>>78689437
They gave her Hellcat and Sif, both were fun as but they didn't last.

>>78689776

Using House of M for good! Holy shit!

>>78688949
Hey, good going OP. I storytimed it once myself a long time ago.

Good being the wife of the cool kids

>>78689820
I fucking loved that journey into mystery run, Sif was cool.

What I always love about Brian Reed’s Ms. Marvel is that it’s essentially the story of person that wakes up one day and realizes she’s in her mid-thirties and still hasn’t actually done anything “great” or “memorable” in her entire life. I wasn’t thirty when I first read it and I’m not thirty even now, but it’s still something of an intrinsic fear that really struck a cord with me.

Other than that, her being uptight, acting aggressive and always ready to throw punches while ebing deeply, deeply insecure about her own strengths, also reminded me of my own behaviours I tried to fix with time.

>>78690329
They should really keep the storm troopers a block away at least or something so as not to scare the teens and such.

>>78690604
Probably not the best idea to use the alien looking person to get the scared kid.

Exaggerated Southern accent?

No idea.

>>78690997
Pretty much

Back in the day I really thought this book was pretty fucking poor.
I don't know if it's just the nostalgia talking, or if it's just in comparison to the dreck that Marvel's currently producing, but this shit actually ain't half-bad.

>>78691035
RIP wieringo.

>>78690729
>>78690761
So Rogue brought two costumes to wear when confronting Carol?

>>78691058
Agreed

>>78691058
It's probably the latter. God knows Fraction's Uncanny is actually readable now

>>78691085
Perfect way to confuse your opponent I suppose?

>>78691058
This book has some good issues and an acceptable number of nice character moments, but besides that, yes, it's by no mean some forgotten masterpiece, it's standard superhero action shlock you can find everywhere else.

It's still more entertaining than the recent books, that can't even get the "plesantly entertaining" part right.

Guess I'll call it on that since we're almost at the image limit. Tomorrow, I'll cover the special and the Initiative arc. Folder should be finished by now too, so you can grab the whole run there

>>78691408

Took me a minute to understand it.

>>78689146
I kinda agree with you, except that it somehow didn't work for me with Reed's Carol. Don't get me wrong, I desperatly wanted to like the series. It had a great artist, awesome ideas, a solid supporting cast, but somehow it didn't work for me.

I guess "A vaguely psycopathic hero being their own worst enemy while still trying to do good" only works for me if the "hero" is kinda likeable and IMHO Reed's Ms. Marvel was less likeable than 90's Venom going full retard.

Only good Issues: Spiderdate and the first few Ms. Moonstone issues (before it degraded to a much to long catfight).

>>78691836
I see what you did.

>>78689332
Are they actually a couple?

>>78688949
>Why they even gave it to KSD will forever be one of those unanswered questions.

I think KSD can do OK, but yeah she fucked up with Ms.Marvel. It seemed like she got on a good track, giving her at least a somewhat decent Supporting cast in NY, but as soon as that was established it got trashed and Carol ends in space with even blander "adventures".

I'm surprised Veranke hasn't come back to life yet. I know there hasn't been a good Skrull focused story since Secret Invasion but she was a cool character

>>78696586
Weird

>>78691836
I don't get it.

Back when we still had some nice things.

Bendis/doom called Carol a fat piece of forniture.

Doom calling Carol a cow in Mighty (?) Avengers is pretty infamous

>>78695362
cool, I'm down with that. But I'll stick to the thread that promotes the good writer of her. Hopefully the new writer has read Reeds run and plays off it.

>>78699195
Thanks

>>78699379
Good times.

>>78690761
I love this rogue costume, even more than how she looked in the cartoon from the 80es

>>78703365
I loved the long jacket.

>>78703365
I kinda hated her with Sunfire's powers.

But this era was one of the best for Rogue. Leading her own team of wildcard X-men and taking down their enemies to protect the school. It was like X-Force but no Wolverine.

Being a babysitter was boring as hell in comparison

>>78704008
Pretty much. I loved that era
