did you pick up that House of M: The Day After one-shot? I thought it was kinda whatever, but I particularly liked the scenes with Blob and Jubilee. And I thought the dialogue between Wolverine & Colossus was truer to the characters than I've seen in a long time.
"It's been ages since I sketched you . . . "
"Some other time."
"I brought beer."
"What the hell."
heh.
"Why do I have my powers, when so many others have lost their?" says Colossus methodically.
its 926 am, i should be running errands and going to bed. lately my moods have been real up and down, like a coin flipped continuosly in the air (assuming the person flipping it has majorr hand eye coordination); and I don't know what it is. One minute I'll be my usual drlf, then bouncy, then come near me and I'll bute your head off.... Read More
Thanks for the book suggestions, man! seriously. I was even wondering about a Norse myth book & I didn't even have to ask. Your suggestions are much appreciated.
I specifically remember the PANEL when Angel got his wings back. He simply molted the metal wings off while kneeling in front of Apocalypse's follower, Ozymandias. no real rhyme or reason for why it happened, only that the transformation was a process & the molting of the metal wings was the next step or something. which doesn't make any damn sense to me. He could shoot friggin poison feathers! now he can't do jack! IF I remember correctly, which I might not, he got his wings back just before the "The Twelve" storyline where Wolverine got his adamantium back & became the horseman Death and the Hulk became War. I think.
What's Angel's second mutation? Did he become a healer or something? I don't even read X-Men anymore except for Astonishing X-Men, which comes out once every FOUR damn months or something. at least that's how it feels.
Y'know, I didn't mind Grant Morrison's (and Frank Quitely. yeah baby) take on X-Men. I remember the art and story just blowing me away. I wasn't a big fan of the Weapon Plus thing or the incomprehensible storyline at the end of Morrison's run about how it's 150 years in the future yet Wolverine, Beast, the Cuckoos, and I think a couple others were still alive. He shook shit up. but yeah, that doesn't mean I dug everything he did.
just got home, work was boring as usual...so yea as much was i don't want to aficionado tagged me with that 20 things you don't know thing...eventhough I've ignored all the other tags (i had two on lj and i think one other here) what the hell...though I doubt I can make 20...
1. i used to have long curly hair-i still have the braid... Read More
damn, man. I didn't know i was going to be hit with so much hostility for tagging people to do this! It was just supposed to a fun li'l thing. well whatever. sorry.
It's cool how your eyes constantly change color, though.
And I've never heard of that spiderspawn site either, so now I got a new site to spend hours purusing though.
dude, I tagged Warren Ellis and he's all pissed at me now!
I was very polite with my tagging, telling him that I knew he was a busy man so I'd understand if he didn't wanna do it. oigh! I think I'm going to go kill myself in shame now before he beats me to it.
so i woke up with this wicked fucking rant I had wanted to share...got into the shower still pumped up...but by the time i got to my keyboard it was gone.
25 years ago as the story goes my father made my mother walk to the hospital in a blizzard in laramie, wyoming...only the hospital was closer than the parking lot-and well the labor wast induced
"you don't actually have a mouth."
What now?! I'm sure it was there yesterday. I always leave it right above my chin for safe-keeping . . ."

"How the hell should I know?"
I dunno man. I dug that scene. good stuff.
