Ah yes, "Cover does not reflect interior content - the Mini"
This is one of the first X-Men stories I ever read, back when I was an uncultured noob. I was understandably confused.
>>86052280
Well, it does a little.
I've always loved Franklin's "4 1/2" logo.
I wonder if/where the Claremont/Byrne pissing match will begin.
though I think claremont did it more in good fun
That's one bomb-ass nightmare, kiddo.
>>86052189
How can Claremont be so good on Xmen and so bad on Exiles?
Geez man, I know you're busy, but you could act a bit more concerned.
>>86052487
>framed picture of Jarvis
Awesome
>>86052475
well there is a gap of several years.....
HOLY SHIT I HAVE MISSED A LOT, I DIDNT EVEN READ THE MUTANT MASSACARE OR THE START OF X-FACTOR.
tell me x-anon, it is too late to jump straight to this issue ?
Also Apocalypse when ? inhumans working together with mutants when ?
>>86052449
All I remember right now is that one Excalibur issue that really made fun of both of them, not just Byrne.
>>86052475
Which arc did he write again ?
>>86052517
yeah that's what i was thinking of as In Good Fun, vs Byrne's Doombot retcons.
>>86052475
He got old and busted. Sad but true.
>>86052413
>Kitty dies
And nothing of value was lost
Wolverine randomly dropping dead is funny
>>86052513
>tell me x-anon, it is too late to jump straight to this issue ?
Eh, kinda? If you're not familiar with the events of Mutant Massacre it might be a bit confusing.
>Also Apocalypse when ?
He's already showed up, senpai.
Hey, at least Betsy had time to get a new 'do.
>>86052475
Anon by the time he wrote Exiles he was far past his prime.
>>86052630
wait, i've been reading outback era, doesn't she have long hair there?
>>86052642
Which is kinda funny because he wrote a much better Exiles in his original Excalibur run.
>>86052589
So does the 90s costume just make people overlook how much of an asshole Rogue is most of the time?
>>86052656
Artistic liberties I'm guessing.
>>86052670
i remember when this dude foreshadowed!
>>86052679
i'd guessing once again everyone just takes the 90s cartoon as gospel
>>86052697
I was guessing that this was gonna end with a reveal/retconReed was somehow responsible for Doom's face destroying fuck up in college.
Hey look, it's bestF4 member
>>86052756
Kinda fucked up that spoiler. Whatevs!
Ha, when Magneto manipulates a mental thingy it glows? Ha, I totally forgot about that.
Poor She Hulk, that was a nice suit
>>86052756
Who are Magneto's victims again? Reading all these comics and it seems like Magneto is suprisingly nonlethal.
>that delayed reaction
kek
>>86052782
>>86052812
>Jen's clothes are burning off and tearing
Also, Magneto's costume is ballin
>>86052824
The case he was tried for was destroying I think Russian, maybe like UN, subs that were going to attack his island after he threatened the world.
also all the Silver Age shit he did.
>What could go wrong?
Dammit, Johnny.
>>86052883
Took over an entire country.
>>86052854
> Wow, Reed saving people like a selfish asshole
God Sue.
>>86052917
well it's a super villain asking them so who knows the truth
>>86052907
But that was nonviolent as I recall. Deleted my image, sorry for the inconvenience.
Fucking typical Marvel superheroes.
>>86052932
Dammit Magneto this is your problem!
also the super geniuses aren't there, none of you can work that thing
>that cover
kek
Goddammit, did you guys forget to give Wolverine his shots again?
>>86052942
It's no biggie, anon. We won't be hitting image limit anyway.
Jesus, it's like a comedy of errors up in here.
>>86052981
it makes sense, he's closest with Kitty after all
>She thought she'd be attacking a toad
>Instead, she's touched the soul of a prince
*sniff*
>>86052945
tell us more about these 'special dreams' you've been having about Logan and your father, Franklin
>>86053056
I kind of love the purple butterfly thing that represents Psylocke's powers
>>86053091
It's pretty nifty and unique.
>I hate you so much I'm going to rip my clothes off in front of this window!
Oh, Sue.
>Thing with tits
What a lovely image.
>Who should we hit?!
fucking lol
>>86053180
nips are always hard
>>86052883
Raided a military base
Overthrew a South American government
Plotted to overthrow Namor
Tried to mind control Black Bolt
Kidnapped Avengers and X-Men on several occasions.
That incident with the UN building
But in his defense, his powers did make him a little crazy back then.
>>86053180
Wasn't She Thing introduced during Byrne's run?
also Rogue/Thing is such a better OTP
Here we go, the most overdramatic person in the entire Marvel Universe. This guy could give Magneto a run for his money!
>>86053218
>hearing of the massacre I wanted to check it out myself
Doom still got that lil crush on storm going huh
>>86053216
I'm trying to forget She-Thing.
>>86053180
Welcome to mid 80's FF where She Thing was a character.
>>86053260
Ben still looks kinda rocky and it's really freaking me out
>>86053258
As we'll see in a later issue...yes
>>86053284
has there been any storm/angel hook ups in like alt realities/futures? they'd literally have the most beautiful children ever
Boy, this sure ain't Reed's day, is it?
>My name is Reed Richards and I love to eat my own snot... hey, this isn't me!
>We don't buy it, Reed!
>I'll meditate mine
Aren't you a super weeb, Wolvie? Don't you have some Bushido to practice?
>>86052413
Keeping Franklin young forever is such a waste. I mean, yeah, it adds potential story threads of his omnipotence allowing himself to will himself into staying a child, but it's weird for him to be the Anti-McConnoughhay from Dazed and Confused.
>What could POSSIBLY go wrong, Dazzler?
>>86053325
>Boy, this sure ain't Reed's day, is it?
Most days aren't, he has some good ones though
Like the one where he pretends to betray his family and seduces the Skrull that has the hots for him in order to save his family
>them Kirby homages
Bogdanove has always been such a camaleonic artist.
>>86053455
fuck that's real good, like almost the same page.
so did Reed take the flight early cause he was scared of Mutants taking over??
>>86052517
I feel confident that Army Intel crate is absolutely the one from Raiders, without verifying the number at all.
It's a little insulting that the F4 would fall for this desu
>>86052543
He turned into such a deplorable waifufag.
>Yeah, my girlfriend Alicia, who keeps no secrets from me whatsoever! No sir!
>>86053455
complete with weird looking early Thing. I can see why some people assume his skin is rocky like some sort of golem rather than hard plate scales
>>86052589
Havok did nothing to deserve this level of bullying.
>>86053527
It's crazy how many writers are /co/ as fuck. I'm actually a bit scared for the future of comics.
>>86053556
it's always been this way. i mean there was a damn Roy Thomas letter in an issue of Metal Men! (and now i wanna know if that effected vision, planted the seed)
>>86053556
It's always been this way, the only thing that has changed is editorial.
>>86053577
Roy Thomas was always MAXIMUM FANBOY, anon.
There's a reason he wrote both the Justice Society/All-Star Squadron and the Invaders. And had the Kree-Skrull War ended by having Rick Jones summon Marvel's Golden Age heroes.
>>86053551
He was born. Havok's life is suffering whether it's because of women, not wanting to be a superhero, or living in his brother's shadow. Honestly Age of Apocalypse Havok feels like 616 should've turned into with how shit his life is
i kinda like the retcon because it does sound like the kind of shit a nerd like reed in college would do.
>>86053678
Did he do all the stupid shit with Vision being Human Torch? it sounds like him but i feel that might've been Englehart
>>86053577
>it's always been this way
>>86053593
>It's always been this way
It feels worse with each generation. I mean Neil Gaiman called American comic writing "incestuous" and he wasn't wrong. Only now we're a few generations deeper
>>86052670
Honestly, part of the problem with his Exiles run was how he awkwardly jammed in the Excalibur terminology into a series that had never used it in 90 issues. Also the awkward revisiting of Psylocke's old Slaymaster storyline.
>>86052725
Hulks can get fat?
I'd assume that their gamma-fueled ideal selves were pretty much static...
>>86053794
It was a joke, but I think it could happen if they stay in that form like Jen usually does.
>>86052847
Magneto looks like he went out in his fancy pajamas, plus gloves, cape and boots.
Sorry about that, had to take a call.
>dat Doom/Ororo
Doom's security forces are fucking Hawkmen.
>>86053883
> Don't worry Storm surely Doctor Doom can fix some scarring...
>>86052945
Wolverine should not be allowed.
pew pew pew
Lasers everywhere
Oh no! Not her clothes!
This is kinda heavy.
Very nicely drawn though. I wonder why Bogdanove doesn't get any work these days.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EIemaKycNo
>>86054036
Is this why there's /ss/ porn of Franklin and Kitty?
>>86054186
...you know what, I don't want to know
>Aw, geez
>He's inna mood!
I love how he's used to Ben's emo phases.
Fuckin kek
Aw. I miss the F4.
Oh yeah, I forgot all about Johnny's retarded 80's hairdo.
>>86052653
Longshot best magic pixie dream boy y/y?
>>86054362
Of course!Not like there's much competition anyway
>>86054402
We need more husbandos like that
>>86053216
Well, she WAS originally Ms. Marvel until Carol stopped being Rogue's split personality.
>>86053218
>I wanted to talk to you, so I sent this horrifying meltman robot!
>Telephones are for peasants!
:(
I really do miss them, /co/.
>>86052756
>You're talkin' like you could get him off
Is there anyone Jen couldn't get off, honestly? Well, Slapstick maybe.
>>86054196
>lord of nightmares paid me a visit?
ok who's done that shitty story of kid reed vs Nightmare
>You came to the wrong neighborhood, motherfucker
This is kinda comfy.
>>86052910
>mfw my eye is peeing
>>86054701
>full figure women are coming back into fashion, about time!
oh jen
>>86052459
Love the PP refs on the wall.
>that third panel
lol
>>86052945
Franklin's shirt is giving me major Earth X Red Skull vibes
>>86053883
Looking a bit Victor von Rape here.
>>86053958
>RICHARD'S ALIVE!?!
>>86054844
Doctor Doom played by Brian Blessed! Now that would be quite the sight.
I know I said Doom is even more melodramatic than Mags, but goddamn will the man not go down without a fight.
>>86054282
But extremely sad.
And here we have Vic von Doom trying to reclaim his title from the would-be usurper!
>>86054983
Tragicomedy is the best kind of comedy.
He said that literally seconds ago! Oh, Mags.
>>86052896
So many people call Reed a dick, and here is worried out of his mind that he's wrong again and he might kill Kitty.
Christ, not again.
>>86055063
A lot of that comes from the Silver Age, when Stan's casual misogyny kinda creeped its way into Reed's characterization.
>>86055063
nowadays you don't get that level of introspection as often. and people see out of context panels and parrot wrong ideas
>>86055101
sometimes, hilariously/sadly, despite Kirby's best efforts
>>86055101
Also Jesus, "muties", Johnny? Really?
>>86055127
Whoopsie daisy.
Well, you were promised a "versus", you're getting a versus I guess.
Can you really blame 'em, kiddo? They're Marvel superheroes after all.
>You are... doomed!
Cheeky fuck.
>>86053149
I miss Dazzler having hair
>>86055268
dat smiling Doom
>>86055326
I love how much Doom is loving this. Great art.
>>86055319
We all do, we all do.Although I think Caldwell's design is alright
>I'm alive, far out!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwXHob1snXw
>>86054547
There aren't enough "Franklin Richards Bullies Dr Doom" stories.
Looks like I almost missed another X-Anon storytime treat!
>>86052737
Reed only failed to convince Victor that his math was wrong, the responsibility ends there.
>>86053091
That thing has a in-U name, I forget what but want to say ... "the Psylocke effect" (?)
>>86053551
He's a whiney Summers brother, that's all the excuse needed.
>>86053794
Hulk gamma identities always reflect the subconscious mind's desires, Banner wanted to express his anger, Jen wanted to cut loose, The Leader wanted to be smart, Abomination wanted to destroy...
>>86054362
Yes. But this was before timetravel tween Bobby and Warren.
>>86054779
Modern 616 yet again steals another idea from Earth X.
I've tasted caviar. Kind of overrated desu.
>>86055409
Hi anon! Sorry about that, I can't afford to start to late or too early!
That's all for today! Tomorrow: AvX! I mean, XvA! 'till then!
>>86055455
Doom at some point adding a random sentence or two to Reed's old journal on the off chance he'd find it and it would cause a break down is justfantasticallypetty
>>86052459
>>86052446
>>86052413
>Franklin's nightmare is what Valeria calls a good dream
>>86054186
Aeolus is pretty nice
>>86054779
Really it's just one of the Power Pack uniforms, with a sort of Neighbourhood Watch logo.
Fun fact: Earth X Skull was co-created by Bill Mumy and Miguel Ferrer.
>>86055455
I understand how schedules limit options, X-Anon, if I didn't I'd always make it to these threads on time. They are my favorite part of /co/ these days.
It's just nice to be able to say thanks to someone who's there to read it, so: Thanks.
>>86054881
Rogue's new suit here makes he look like a pulpy Nazi supervillain.
>>86055470
>Franklin never got to hit that
>>86054903
How many other actors can you think of that can be as hammy as Doom?
>>86053958
That's a cute outfit Rogue's got.
>>86055063
A fair amount of that comes out of Doomwank, IMO.
Doom is "more heroic" if Reed is a dick.
>>86054750
Is Longshot's mutant power being able to throw projectiles that ignore the laws of physics?
>>86055712
Well, next up is her early '80s Rock'n'Roll video background girl outfit.
It'll be some time before she gets her brown leather jacket casual over formfitting latex wet-wear kink classic costume look.
But her personal fashion takes a downhill turn after that for a while...
>>86055470
Kitty. Stop seducing Rachel's husbando.
>>86055929
He's not a mutant, he just hangs out with them. It's all genetic engineering and magic.
>>86055929
Basically, yes. Luck means "shit happens however is most convenient to him, damn logic and causality."
>>86053883
Dr. Doom, one of the greatest intellects the Universe has ever known, can any disease except one:
JUNGLE FEVER!
DOOM's GOT JUNGLE FEVER!
>>86056033
Sigh, do we really have to also add Kitty to the long list of X-Men pedos?
>>86056014
i think this might be my favorite outfit, but iirc her hair is a disaster during it.
