Art is getting lazier and lazier
>>146730907She's not built for monthly, that's why she's not a mangaka. Weekly would kill her.
Support your local comic store!
Sex with Natsu.
>>146730940Aren't most manga magazines monthly?
>>146730860Thanks OP
>>146730907>anon discovers that monthly comic schedules can result in inconsistent art STOP THE FUCKING PRESSES! This is how it's been since the fucking golden age you retard.
>>146730954Well that escalated
>>146730863That time of of the month already
>>146730954Cyclops can't catch a fucking break, even as a girl.
>>146730880Oh so Viper is on the council that's interesting
>>146731047Some are. Some aren't.
>>146730893Top part almost feels like a boomer cartoon. Do you guys think this is based on any specific cult over there?
>>146730940She said she didn't have a problem with the monthly schedule in a recent interview
>>146730947The mom being that specific instead of calling it a laser is funny>>146730954Wow
>>146730960What is flatscan relating to and isn't it a new word?
>>146731207Imagine if she mentionned the punch dimension.
>>146730940Noriko is cuter with that haircut.
>>146730987This page wasn't needed
>>146730954Dude ..
>>146730954I'd love to see Momoko do an original horror work
>>146731680You are wrong. Its necessary.
>>146730912Oh, so Peach didn't forget about this plot.>>146730940Disgusting. Sage got utterly wrecked.>>146730954Holy shit. I felt for her before, but now I feel even worse.>>146731207>>146731231I wouldn't be surprised if that was specific terminology the cult came up with her.At the very least you can connect "flatscan" to the tests they did for power growth early on.
>>146731005You'd end up with more holes than her.
She need a hug.
>>146732007Where's the downside
>>146732007Hot.
>>146730981That must be Mei if we go by #11's cover.
>>146732125Hmm?
>>146730954Are they all being manipulated through their emotions or are they just emotionally unstable teenagers, leading to their powers being unstable
>>146731047No, the vast majority of manga anthologies are weekly, they sell more compared to the bi-weekly and monthly ones, that model has managed to propel the best selling manga for the simple fact it can retain readers at a much faster rate than monthlies, every week an audience will be at the edge of their seats waiting for the next chapter of their favorite series. That’s why it is "normal" for the business to just accept mangaka must kill themselves working on a weekly schedule since that is the price to pay for guaranteed success.There are extremely successful monthlies like Fullmetal Alchemist and Attack on Titan, but they are not the norm, publishers will bet on weeklies to attain success faster still.
>>146732754JoJo's is monthly too.
>>146732820JoJo became monthly with Part 7, not even from the start either, it changed to a monthly about 17 chapters in. Thus all the fame it built was as a weekly series for over 16 years back then, people just followed Araki to Ultra Jump where he has reigned alone through Part 7, 8 and now 9.
>>146732850>where he has reigned alone through Part 7, 8 and now 9Wait, really?
>>146732947Jojo is Ultra Jump’s flagship series, he reigns alone is in no other series that has ever managed to challenge him for flagship spot for all the 20 years Araki moved there, not that Ultra Jump only runs JoJo if that’s what you are thinking.
>>146732628They are just unstable, mostly due to Xavier's school not existing and the only support being the COTA cult.
>>146733253Would the interaction between Hisako and the grieving mother be an exception?
>>146730918>>146730924>>146730932I wonder if the armor that's been protecting Hisako all this time is made up of the memories/souls of her classmates who diedAnd those first two pages are from her perspective with the black souls confronting the mothersBut in reality it was her Armor flaring up and attacking them without her realizing it, and controlling her body in the process
>>146732850>JoJo became monthly with Part 7, not even from the start eitherI know. Didn't think I had to clarify that I knew that JoJo's was a weekly comic before the move with part 7. but by saying "JoJo's monthly too" I was insinuating that I know of it's history
>>146730981Bit sad we didn't see anything of the after of Mei and Surge fight
>>146733333It could be her armor controlling her.

Some of the Children of the Atom members feel like they are based on someone I recognize. Wonder if they all are, or are generics. That at least some wear masks doesn't help.
>>146733759I don't think you should bother with the solicitations, since they are 100% wrong all the time.Its like someone looked at the covers for a hot minute and tried to figure out what's going to happen.
>>146733863In the previous issue, I think there was Rogue and a red haired pyrokinetic mutant (Rusty?), so I guess some of the kids are based on pre-existing mutants.
>>146733759Lmao at Larocca's cover.
>>146733759So Mei and Hisako are gonna be the Magneto/Xavier dichotomy here?So odd.
>Mei or Hisako heel turn I do not like it
>>146734629>The X-men VS the Brotherhood of New MutantsYou are not ready.
Will it be Meineto, or Professor M
>>146736001Meilisto really.
>Maystorm become more and more radicalized>Get injured>Bath herself in mutant blood to get a boost>Become Ultimate Bloodstorm
>>146730954CYCLOPS OF MURDER
Whelp, I guess /co/ doesn't like their X-men in a horror premise.
>>146736617>I guess /co/ doesn't like their X-men in a horror premise.I do the horror vibe is what caught my eye and got me to read it in the first place
>>146736721Me too :D
Poor Mori, her friend is a ruthless murderer...
>>146734051hasn't Rogue been teased since like, 5 issues ago and we still haven't seen her
>>146732628Mutant powers are always unstable. They also tend to manifest itself violently and anyone caught within the vicinity of the mutant power manifest are at risk of potentially being harmed. Honestly laughable that the X-men still continue to advocate for mutants and why mutants should be proud of being mutants instead of taking the mutant vaccine.
>>146738027I think about that scene where Kitty Pryde is bedside with some poor guy who killed his entire town
>>146730954Jesus Christ
>>146730940She have a completely different vibe
>>146738600She has the same haircut 616 Nori's been known forWhich I guess is supposed to showcase character growth
>>146730885Marvel Civilians a multiversal constant
>>146731207She is in a mutant cult so I can see them wanting them to use the "proper" term.
>>146738242Regular Marvel copying Ultimate Marvel was a mistake.Forcing this cool elseworld to be tied to Ultimate Marvel was a mistake.
>>146738793Average Marvel Civilian will start being racist in the most casual way and call for genocide at least five times a day, these japanese people are still normal level of racism
>>146730940Will they kiss by the end of the story?
>>146730954OK, you can all stop staring now.
>>146739219??
>>146731702I think she said she wanted to tell more stories but I'm not sure how many would be completely original. Could be wrong but she also said she wasn't completely sure what to do after finishing up at marvel.>>146731727It didn't really add anything that we wouldn't have known already. >>146732056I thought that the blood was just from using it but maybe that's just how she cries from that eye. Wonder why she didn't cry this time, shock maybe. >>146731961>>146738825Good point, they probably have tests to see what powers it's members have specifically.
>>146739077Surge is for Mai so hopefully not.
>>146740703Surge is for creepy old men/women.
>>146740067Lazercheese
>>146740699I remember a anon speculating that Natsu is ejecting high pressure blood, and the heat come from the friction.
>>146733759So it seems like all the mystical aesthetics were a massive red herring.The COTA kind of feel like something the umbrella corp would pull.
>>146741522I like the blood angle at least , so it wasn't a wasted surprise
>>146741595It seem like the blood plot point bled a little in Camp's writing, since Sunspot dad is using his own son blood to stay young and gain temporary powers.
>>146741162It's probably just a visual effect for her being too weak for her powers, once she get stronger she will stop bleeding from the eye
>>146742331But then she'll no longer be cool like that guy from the James Bond movie
So you guys think Natsu will ever get both eyes to shoot? Or only the one?
>>146742586Only one eye so she’s actually a cyclop
>>146731003>That Cyclops maskIt seem like Natsu will follow Mei in the "revolution"
>>146742870But the eye is in the middle while Natsu shoot laser from the right one
>>146743291But its clearly meant to be a demonic Cyclops.
>>146730947MEKARA BEAMU!!!!
>>146743304I guess we just have to ignore the eye placement
>>146743809I guess
>>146730954meh
Wow I'm stupid I only just now remembered that Natsu means Summer.
>>146730954Is she okay?
>>146746140Just a flesh wound
>>146746140nobody stays dead in comics, silly :)
>>146730940I wonder if Surge and Maystorm are working together now and just recruited Kageyama
>>146747386Imagine the threesome
>>146747386Seeing how slow the story is I doubt Mei convinced Surge to become allies so fast
>>146748725This book is happening in real time, so it has been a month since Surge and Mei's fight (which is why Kageyama has lost weight already)We know that Surge doesn't believe the Maester's message and doesn't seem to be a fan of Emperor SunfireIf Mei is trying to protect the Children of the Atom and Surge is asking Kageyama to join some sort of team and cause some trouble their goals might be aligned
>>146742586Hadn't thought of that maybe. She seems to have some control of it.
>>146740858
>>146749028>This book is happening in real time, so it has been a monthSo nothing happen during those months?
>>146730954SEINEN AF
>>146751014maybe or stuff does happen but it's all off panel like the the secret war in africa in UBP or all the spider-man stuff in USM
>>146751014Tention has been building
>>146753618A bit boring
X-Bros, we made the top 10 with this one!
>>146755479Really?
>>146730954brutal page.
>>146730860boring
