So, Cullen Bunn called Hopeless his "mortal enemy".
Is he, dare I say it, /ourguy/?
I'm pleasantly surprised with how the issue was, especially with KeikakuMags.
>>91522466
he can write anti-heroes and villains really well.
I wish he was on an X-book that didn't have the O5 or wolverine jr.
>>91522466
Bunn's Uncanny run was mediocre and got worse with time. I didn't like this issue much either. Bunn is exactly that, a meh writer, who is better with his own created stuff. And with Hudson's upcoming addition, this title is officially dropped.
>>91522499
Same, but this is honestly the first time I'vesmiledwhile reading something with the nu5 in it.
Given how Mags committed suicide by Psylocke and is now going after his old crew using impressionable young brats is gonna be fun.
Also, that previews page has me genuinely excited.
>>91522590
>Bunn is exactly that, a meh writer
I can agree that Uncanny spun its wheels, but that's easily because of the circumstances. His Magneto is anything but "meh", though.
Plus he's like the only (true) Rachelfag to work at Marvel in like forever.
>>91522466
You do realize they're both really good friends, right? Hopeless made Cullen off Cullen Bunn in Avengers Arena.
>>91522466
The continued existence of the O5 proves that he is not /ourguy/. /ourguy/ would defeat editorial and remove the O5
>>91522716
Yes, you do know what memes are, right?
>>91522772
He's had like 3 years of Mags playing the long game.
Bunn is also playing the long game.
>>91522655
Apart from a couple of exceptions, his cape stuff is mediocre to bad. He can write better anti-heroes or villains, but other than that i found Bunn a really boring writer.
>>91522466
I've had to say it a thousand fucking times on /co/ :
>Don't judge a comic run before it's finished.
Would anyone who had only read Giant-Sized X-Men #1 have any freakin' clue what the Claremont era would be like?
Think about Morrison's run on day one, Whedon's run on day one, day one of the Bendis occupation ...
There's no telling how this O5 "Blue Period" is going to turn out until it's done.
>>91523548
>not judging Benis's X-Men

is it wrong that that I suddenly ship demon Hank & Magik?
>>91525743
Incredibly.
>>91526003
It's like the whole thing was written so Hank wouldn't be a cradle robber
>>91525743
They're doing a whole "History repeats itself" thing with the O5:
Jean's getting the Phoenix soon.
Scott's cracking up and nobody cares enough to notice.
Warren made a stupid bargain to get superwings.
Bobby is jumping from doomed relationship to doomed relationship.
And Hank has once again damned himself to a monstrous form due to experimenting in things any idiot could have told him he shouldn't have.
>>91523548
But Bendis' writing is terrible to the point that no one gives a fuck how it ends. Why are you so retarded?
>>91526965
>Scott's cracking up and nobody cares enough to notice.
>Mags was in love with Rightclops
>wants the next best thing
Based Mags
>>91522655
>His Magneto is anything but "meh", though.
Except, ya know, it WAS. It meandered around and went exactly no where until it was canceled for the Secret Wars relaunch.
And while /co/ seems to have praise for his Magneto and Sinistero solos ... does anyone try to defend image related?
>>91526965
>They're doing a whole "History repeats itself" thing with the O5:
Not just he O5 either.

Because rehashing Civil War a second time went over SO WELL ...

Magic Demon Beast? Is this a long-game to lead into the Devil Beast from Uncanny X-Men #400?
>>91529463
I'll try.
Mark Brooks covers are incredible.
eyyyah?
>>91528801
Listen, I lived through the '90s, I know what actual bad writing is.
I once read a single comic with 12 artists and the story was about evil birds, it ended with a sitcom-style bad non-joke and group hug.
There was never an explanation as to why the birds were evil.
Bendis writes funny scenes, spot-on characterization, and his storylines have a purpose to them. The end may be disgrace and death for characters you love, but at least there's a reason to buy the next issue.
It used to be so much worse.
Evil bird adventures and pointless punch-fests aren't a reason to buy anything.
>>91529211
Pfft! Please, nobody loves Scott. He will die cold and alone and unnoticed by Hank and Jean who will be gettin' it on over his terrigen-infected dead body.
>>91529534
More like a nod to Morrison's alt-future plans / stealing a good concept.
>>91529641
Bendis?
Spot-on characterization?
How does that explain Iceman?
>>91529641
What a lamentable post.
>>91529641
>Bendis writes funny scenes
That's not how you spell "quips"
>spot-on characterization
Nigger, Bendispeak is literally the character dialog equivalent of an artist with sameFace syndrome!
>and his storylines have a purpose to them
Did you actually READ Civil WarII? Or Battle for the Atom? Or The Last Will and Testament of Charles Xavier? Or ... Christ, have you EVER read a comic by Bendy??
>>91529641
>tfw I can't bring myself to hate Benis because of Secret Invasion/Dark Reign/Siege
Bros, help me out.
>>91529728

Bendis? The writer Bendis?

Seriously? This is some piss-poor samefagging.
At least say something different in one of the posts.
They're all sporting the same non-argument.
And it's not as if there was this great torrent of posts on this thread of all these opinionated posters before this.
If this isn't all one sad anon then it's time some people learned to think for themselves.
Which is even sadder.
(also, "bros, help me out" is kinda an admission of what you're doing)
>>91529822
>This is some piss-poor samefagging.
You know that there's this thing at the bottom of the page that lists the number of unique posters, right kid?
>>91529822
>t. Bendis
Also, one of those posts was basically praise, you nitwit.
Also, for 4 out of 13 posters to be anti-Bendy is hardly bizarre on /co/, go back to your forums, or lurk 2 years before posting.
>>91522466
>So, Cullen Bunn called Hopeless his "mortal enemy".
What, why? When? Where?
>>91529822

C'mon fuccboi

Point taken, it really is four irate people without an independent mind among them.
... And my differing opinion isn't welcome.
Seems like "they" each don't want any other opinions around.
Fair enough. Kinda defeats the purpose of /co/, but whatev'.
Well, then you just talk amongst yourself then.
>>91530002
Look, most people like some of your work, Brian, but a lot if it is indefensible shit. And at this point, your writing is well past fucking stale and any redeeming qualities have lost their sheen.
>>91529641
...Oh, This post explains the implication that bendis, morrison or whedon's run were anything beyond mediocre.
>>91522466
It was a terrible issue, that's not how teenager talk
