Where Rogue is...in two different places at the same time?Comics in this thread:>Unbreakable X-Men #1>Rogue Storm #1>Sinister's Six #1>Iron & Frost #1
Bump if you're reading.Before we begin: I managed to pull a couple of strings and got my pass renewed. Last week was a pretty great showcase in why having the pass is outright necessary when you're storytiming. And at the end of the day, I don't have the time or energy to babysit the autoposter and constantly deal with the dumb captcha and (You) don't want to spend hours to wait for a comic to be posted.
>The new Spider-Girl has joined the X-Men in the futureCan't tell if this is just Simone doing the "team line-up has heavily changed in the alternate timeline" trope or if she has actual plans to feature her in Uncanny.>"Why target us, Rogue? Why not [...] whatever the hell is left of the Fantastic Four these days?"Yeah, about that....
Why is Galactus interested in Shuvahrak out of all things?
>"The cure would be worse than the disease."...who the actual hell are you, and why are you a Sentinel?
>"An' there's the baby."The what
>"I seek a new herald."And you're going for Shuvahrak? Buddy, you can do be->"[Chelsea]. I will have her."Nevermind then. Let me guess, you want her because she's (heavily implied to be) the Endling.
>Sentinel Boy also diedThe hell was the point of introducing him if he only lasted for 10 pages?
>Rogue became a statue by absorbing the cosmic energieswat
>>150845763Wow, he almost lasted ten whole pages
While Gambit is moping here, I guess we can also talk about the X-Men NYCC panel from a few days ago. >Adjectiveless X-Men, Uncanny X-Men and Wolverine are continuing with no relaunches. Everyone kind of knew that was happening.>Tony Daniel is back at Marvel and is drawing Adjectiveless X-Men #23-25. Sort of a surprising return given how long it's been since he last did the interiors for a Marvel book. Will they try to get him to write and draw a book? Maybe, who knows.>Inglorious X-Force ongoing: Might do better than the last attempt at X-Force? Seeley is an okay writer, but doing another X-Force run centured around "the team leader is getting visions of catastrophies" is rather tiresome at this point. Also, didn't Weapon X-Men state that Cable couldn't currently travel through time and was stuck in the present?>Rogue mini: Eh. Yeah, I get that people have been asking for a Rogue solo now since they're the leader of their X-Men, but I don't have much faith in the writer.>Magik & Colossus mini: Why is this a miniseries? The Magik ongoing was reportedly one of the better selling FTA titles. To not only replace it with a stand-alone miniseries (despite there being a massive loose plotline left in her ongoing) is such a weird choice. >Wade Wilson, Deadpool ongoing: Not really feeling this? Sure it's a great creative team, but Percy's writing of Wade wasn't that good in both X-Force and Wolverine, while Deadpool/Wolverine focused so much more on Logan and Apocalypse to the point that it felt like Wade was just tacked on at the last second because Marvel needed an ongoing comic with them following the success of the movie. I also really hope that he stops writing for the trade and does the arc structure that he had when writing X-Force and Wolverine.
>Cyclops mini: Replace the instance of "Rogue" in my reaction to the Rogue mini with "Cyclops", and you have my reaction to this mini.>Generation X-23: Corny mash-up name aside, this one seems okay. Creative team seems alright, but I really can't help but feel like the comic is a response to how people complained that LK: Wolverine didn't involve a lot of the stuff from Laura's previous comics until the very end. Also not a big fan of introducing more new characters, but whatever gets people interested in picking up the titles, I guess.>Storm, Earth's Mightiest Mutant ongoing: More of the same stuff that we were plagued with last time. Ayodele has stated that this is going to focus more on Storm and not Eternity, which is welcome given how much page time Eternity ended up taking. Now if he only stopped making unnecessary flashbacks and featuring pointless B-plots and detours, we could have ourselves a decent comic. >Exceptional X-Men is confirmed to be getting a relaunch. Because of the SoT teaser image being an homage to the cover of Avengers: The Initiative #1 was "not a coincidence", it's speculated that this will be the new school book that was teased to be happening following X-Manhunt. If that really is the case, Eve Ewing really needs to switch her writing style away from how she approached Exceptional, given how long it took for that series to have the Exceptional kids fight a villain.>Surprisingly, no one decided to mess with Brevoort regarding the whole AI Substack fiasco during the Q&A.Overall? Much better than the SDCC panel. But Marvel's entire output at NYCC was pretty lacking all things considered. Not because they weren't awful...but because they weren't good enough.Also, fucking LMAO at the Psylocke: Ninja announcement. Things are really fucking bad when everyone could immediately tell why they didn't choose to announce that until after NYCC was over.Alright, back to the comic.
Galactus is sleeping...
uh-oh
>"It's Clay Correra. Ransom and Temper's li'l one."Wait, what? How old is this kid?
>>150845741Not muh spider-girl
Miss Henrietta is back again following her last appearance in Uncanny #13-16.
Suddenly, zombies
>The Sentinel Dog is still with themHuh.
And now for Rogue Storm.
X years ago, Storm got caught in a game between the abstract entities that resulted in her becoming the host body for Eternity and going to war with Hadad, alledgedly the first storm god. But X years later, she is the last of Earth's gods...and she's causing the coming of a new Ice Age. What drove her into madness? And how can there still be a Rogue existing if Rogue died in Unbreakable X-Men?
>AkujinWho?
>"Five years into the Age of Revelation."Huh? Why is this set 5 years into the future and not 10 years like the other titles? Is it so that Rogue can be featured here?>"Our world was once home of the greatest god to have ever lived."Look, I like Storm too. But "the greatest god to have ever lived"? Lol no, she still has ways to go.
>First gets the Wonderdome>Now the Fortress of SolitudeStorm is getting a Batcave next.
Alright, there's Rogue. And she's riding on some...okay, I have no idea what those creatures are.
>>150845852Which Bionicles are these?
Whatever these creatures are, they really love war.
>"We're the Uncanny X-Force."After Ayodele had Doom talk about the "mutant metaphor" as if it existed in-universe, I really wouldn't be surprised if "uncanny" was actually a part of the team name.
>Gateway already deadDidn't take long for that to happen.
>"You haven't her power, Rogue. You're not Rogue Green."...what?
Okay, now we get an answer.>2 years from now, Rogue gets split into two different people by the CollectorOh I get it, it's like Superman Red/Superman Blue.
>Moon Girl made an alloy that combines the proporties of adamantium, vibranium and mysteriumwat
Okay, now the comic is set 10 years later like the other tie-ins.And finally, Storm rides a War Hippo.
You made her mad now.
And now for Sinister's Six.
X years ago, Sinister was back to his old tricks again and successfully acquired the DNA of hundreds of thousands of mutants with the help of the lifestyle app Verate. But X years later, he has acquired his own strike force! Why have these people decided to work with him? And how long before Sinister decides to fuck them over?
Oh, and this is written by Dave Marquez, the main artist of Uncanny X-Men.
>"Misty Knight and Colleen Wing, Heroes For Hire, living up to our name."No, you two are Daughters of the Dragon. Come on man.
Black Cat is all fur now.
Marvel put too much faith on Mackay when he works better as a solo books(just the same he did with Aaron and Bendis), I think Gillen on Avengers would be better if you want at least Jed in one team book.Also , repeating even the 90s stories is getting worse. At this point I can see Mackay redoing the 90s Avengers and Xmen crossover again
>"They are not food."Says the cannibal.
Suddenly, VenomWonder if the symbiote got itself a new host over the years.
Venom has been captured, mission accomplished.
Rate his base
Wait, Havok also has a son? Who's the mother, Polaris?
>>150845993Oh, hey, that's the one Magneto used for totally-not-fetishistic revenge, right?
Not really much of a last page reveal here, since we have already read Amazing X-Men.
And now for Iron & Frost.
>>150845922Feels weird to just ape a Spider-Man name and not have him involved. I guess Black Cat and Venom are there at least
X years ago, Emma ended her short fling with Tony Stark and returned to teaching a new generation of mutants. But X years later, she finds herself back in the ruins of New York, in search of something important to her. What is she searching for? And whatever happened to Iron Man?
I think you guys are already aware who Marrow is, but as for the others:>https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Christian_Cord_(Earth-616)>https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Carmella_Unuscione_(Earth-616)
oof
>Emma is killOh well, I guess the tie-in is already ov- oh right, this is a flashback.
>>150845895>combines three bs metals to make a stronger bs alloy
>The kid's mutant powers caused the ground under the mansion to collapseThanks a lot kid.
>Emma survived by becoming diamondToo bad that you can't use your telepathy ever again, but rather that than to die, right?
>he thinks she's deadnyooooo
>"Once I surfaced, I spent years, moving west, trying to find any of my X-Men...but to no avail, I was alone (but you can find where they are by reading Expatriate X-Men #1 in two weeks from now)."Thanks Emma
Hey, the mansion is still there. Sadly it's been taken over by the Hellfire Club (who for some reason are still active in the Revelation Territories).
What the hell, why are you still here?
He's truly an Iron Man now. Or, sorry, Iron King.
checklist
And that was Week 2 of Age of Revelation tie-ins.Next week: X-Men: Book of Revelation #1, Omega Kids #1, The Last Wolverine #1, Radioactive Spider-Man #1.And that's it! If you liked these, support your LCS or whatever.
After seeing so many new X-Men related solo runs and minis announced I'm really confused why Gambit didn't have one announced alongside the others, his solos are always great and seem to sell well
>>150846136Gambit has now been relegated to Rogue's sidekick. He's not allowed to exist without her
>>150845847>>150845852>>150845852These pages are just so funny, the only people that worshipped Storm like a goddess were from her tribe in Kenya, nobody else did it. That hack of a writer really is trying to make it look like Storm was always some central character to Earth
>>150845775>is unhappy>surrounded by blacks/brownsKek
>>150845741I'll guess we will see what happens to the Spider-girl book next year
>>150845792>Latverian NavySo Doom is still around and got enough power for a navy in Europe, guess he have the continent under his control
>>150845915The menfish from Absolute Wonder Women?
>>150845946I get the sense that Gillian is done with Marvel after Krakoa, the shortening of the timetable probably left a bad taste in his mouth for working on for-hire Big Two comics
>>1508459825/10 not enough sinister clones
>>150846023tbf Spider-Man is getting its own tie-i,n so it makes sense not to have too many Spider-Man related characters
>>150846483Latveria has a coastline?
>>150846052Couldn't just shift into diamond form?
>>150845759>holy crap on toast
>>150845872>>150845874These robots are weak
>>150845792>LMAO at the Psylocke: Ninja announcementQRD?
>>150845895Yes, we really needed a new bullshit metal
Shan’t be reading
Reminder that the existente of cyclops made claremontcuck seethe
>>150846136those are chud-adiacent thoughts anon, be careful
>>150845982Sure look better than what Doug and his allies have built
>>150845749Hnnnngggg Rogue took bbc
>>150846103not very interesting so far hopefully that Williamson relaunch for Iron Man will be good
>Bendis timetravel fanfic>Lemire inhuman shilling>That misery porn run>Krakoa>Retelling of 90s Jesus, I don't know why I'm feeling nostalgic with the pre schism edgy era, maybe because was the lesser evil
>>150846565TL;DR >Psylocke: Ninja was revealed to be a nostalgiabait mini set between UXM #256-257 and featuring Betsy in Kwannon's body>Fans of Kwannon are upset because they thought that this was going to be the sequel to Wong's Psylocke solo>Fans of Betsy are upset because they don't want a nostalgiabait mini or feature that moment of the character>Other comicfags are immediately calling out that Brevoort and Cebulski intentionally waited after NYCC to announce it because they would have been crucified had they announced it thereOverall it's a fucking shitshow
>>150846617Williamson using villains like time trapper, parasite , doomsday Livewire and Silver banshee and his Batman event was about scarecrow made me believe he will use Ironman Rogue gallery.They only used Madame masque and Controler as decent treats the rest of the gallery were treated as a joke
>>150845788Buddy aged 25 years in 3 days
>>150846037>>150846043This is some awful dialogueI was thinking about picking this up until I saw it was by the same writer as the recent Gwenpool mini, really glad I didn't
>>150845809Choco mommy and Temper should have a threesome with Ransom
>>150846535Latveria is in the middle of the balkans so the only way for them to have a navy is to have turned some countries into puppets and took control of their navy
>>150846633I see, thank you
>>150845730Nice booba
>>150845855>What if Storm was TRAPPED and BETRAYED
If there was an overarching theme to this week's collection of X-Books, it would be trying to have it both ways...Rather serendipitous given the post-NYCC announcement of Psylocke Ninja
>>150845792>Implying Eternity was the problem with Storm's bookhonestly got better when storm wasn't on screen
>>150846633Of course Yoshida-San wants more of the yellowface era, even though you think Marvel would want to double down on Kwannon given that NetEase went with her when it came to Psylocke's appearance in Rivals
>>150846985Isn't Rivels Pylocke Sai from Demon Days rather than Kwannon?
>>150845767He's probably going to appear in the main title and this was just a glimpse of him
>>150846956Eternity and the whole abstracts plot is the problem of the book, they end up taking too much page time when the main focus should be the title characterStorm fighting other storm gods should be a very simple plot, but because Ayodele desperately needs to inject his failed G.O.D.S. project stuff it ends up making the story too complicated for its own goodAnd the man can't fucking write abstracts, he has Oblivion and Infinity fucking job and might have written one of the worst versions of TOBA (even PKJ's version was better)
>>150847066one of the worst versions of TOAA*
>>150845890>>2 years from now, Rogue gets split into two different people by the CollectorI'm sure Gambit would disagree with that.
So now that the dust has settled. What did you hate about From the Ashes?
>>150845741>Spider-Girl She's too old now.
>>150846621Bendis > Krakoa > 90s >>>>>>>>> Lemire / misery porn
>>150847212The fact that you can constantly tell when and where Brevoort has left his fingerprints in the comic
>>150847212That it had no ideas in its head other than "MEMEBER THE 90S?!"
>>150845879Thanks for the "leap", "land" and "dodge". I don't know how I would have understood this comic without them.
>>150846018Did we really need to read anything beyond the event's premise for this?I love how stupidly happy Rogue Red looks here.
>>150847212rudderless
>>150846103This is ridiculous and not in a good "oh how original!" way.
>keep souls of your enemies in a vigilante private hell dimension and torment them for hundreds of years>oh no they will want to kill us if they get loose how could this happenThe x-men are supposed to be good guys by the way
>>150846881kek
>>150847533I don't remember how it went exactly but I don't think they had much choice in the matter.
Why are people calling this a 90s nostalgia era? This feels nothing like 90s X-Men and this is at least the fourth AoA retread so you can’t point to that
Gentlemen, how do we save X-men?
>>150845869>Rogue RedClone alert
>>150845934sex
i miss hotoru...
>>150848035You can't, the problem was born from the fact that writers can't ignore all the genocides and have the X-Men not become more radicals
>>150848035I told it several time return to pre2016 era.Bring back Fraction, Majorie Liu, Spurrier, Wood and Gillen.
>>150845749See, when a man betrays humanity by touching a female sometimes there’s a cancer with a fifty fifty chance of growing into a female. And that’s why we need clone tanks to create the pure male human race and a pure male utopia.

>>150845730This man has breasts

>>150851588Having a nose throws off Iron Man's aerodynamics, so no idea how awful he must perform with hair as well.
>>150845767OH MY GOD!!THEY KILLED SENTINEL BOY!!YOU BASTARDS!!!!
>>150845780Amen to that, mon ami. Amen to that.
These weren't very goodAlso pretty cringe that Storm has a lointhong on the cover of Rogue Storm but the gave her bike shorts inside
>>150845730You know x-men might sell better if they didn’t have the worst writers all over the line
>>150845890>Gambit has two Rogues>Doesn't immediately try to fuck bothAbsolutely fucking bullshit. Gambit would be the worlds most polyamorous dude if he had access to two Rouges
I think I saw Calico in armor mode in one of the previews.No sign of Jitter?
>>150845895Pretty sure that was in the Gayvengers infinity crap. Made it for their knockoff Captain America, I think.
>>150852706Probably dead
>>150845890Can't believe I can see Storm having hot lesbian sex with Rogue one day
>>150845788Inglorious X-Force will flop, and then Brevoort will make a death of X-Force comic
>>150845775>time passes>the room gets browner and browner>the one last white man gets sadder and sadder>the brown people don't give a shit and just stuff their facesNo lie detected.
>>150854833He should have just started fucking Chelsea
>>150845847>Atlanta looks like that in only 5 yearsThis is just retarded, I don't give a fuck about their stupid virus explanation.
>>150845780She probably left the statue behind and is scattered into ionic form. She may regather herself back together like Wonder Man did.
>>150845830Don't care for Blind Gambit having no problems navigating after only three years of being blind. He's not Daredevil or Cyclops. He should be having some issues.
I don't know how to feel about Sinister anymore
>>150846985NetEase specifically avoided both Betsy and Kwannon because it's a headache
>>150845775he aged like shit in 3 years
>>150855802He's been blinded before, back during the Reloaded eraHe gained precog powers briefly
>>150845775>Man is mourning his wife and she’s just there eating cookies
>>150846018That sucked. These kinds of books are just gobbledegook. I wasn't in the mood for a future timeline story and the From the Ashes era wasn't ready for it either.
>>150845994I just don't believe these characters would work with Sinister. Ever. Under any circumstances given everything that transpired not very long ago in their universe. Especially not true heroes like Domino and Havok. So that leaves only the brainwashing/clone explanations. And that's just so boring and overdone.
Didn't care much for most of these, although Rogue Storm has nice art and I am interested in seeing how Sinister screws everyone over.
>>150857053The book explains the circumstances. They're dying, he's promising a cure.
>>150857303The circumstances and the stakes don't matter. It's Sinister. It should be a hard no at this point. The man tried to take over reality itself, and was only defeated by bringing cosmic forces to bear. They should be trying to kill him on sight. The idea that he's even alive should be enough to put Revelation and any concerns about him on the back burner.
>>150857510Also yes technically it wasn't specifically Sinister himself that was Enigma, but it might as well have been, and would have been if the original Essex hadn't gotten there first.
>>150857510I don't know how much of that is known to the rank and file X-Men like Havok and DominoIts not like they were having a debrief after Krakoa explaining all of the wars on the cosmic plane that Sinister was responsible forThey thought the big bads were Nimrod and OrchisI don't know if Jean and Xavier filled everyone in on what the Dominion was up to
>>150857510Their concerns are that they're in pain and he's the only guy offering to take it away.
>>150857711Havok's son being behind the glass and being raised by Nanny probably means he's human and at risk of exposure to the virus
>>150848035marvel is overall a walking corpse. there is this event going and the thread is already archived
>>150845775Oh yeah, how convenient that the only remaining Uncanny X-men members were the black ones while the others including the asian are gone too.
>>150858362To be fair Idie wasn't part of the Uncanny cast before And Spider-Girl is Hawaiian
>>150855828He's a funny character
>>150857711Doesn't matter. It's Sinister.
>>150857604>I don't know if Jean and Xavier filled everyone in on what the Dominion was up toI think at the end of Fall of X it was the Phoenix plus the minds of every mutant vs Enigma, wasn't it?
>>150859579It wasn't their minds. The first thing Scott asked when she got back is what happened which he wouldn't have done if he had been there to see it.
>>150858362In this case it feels kind of natural like the way people actually do congregate by race.
>>150859542That's easy for you to say as someone who isn't suffering from X-Plague.
>>150859779However bad X-Plague can be, Sinister is worse.He is one of, perhaps the most, truly evil characters in all of Marvel. There is no situation where working with him helps you.
>>150859820Well in Havoc's defense, he did work under Sinister for a while and did kinda lead him to having Madelyne back so he might think its not gonna be all bad. For Domino yeah, she's one who shouldn't really be trusting him. Also how does her powers work with Black Cat being on the same team? Do the bad luck and good luck powers cancel out or kinda amplify each other if they have the same goal.
>>150858859Yeah but he's been moved rather abruptly away from being, well, sinister and is firmly in "quirky gay uncle" territory. Which was funny for a while but not exactly intimidating or even someone I want to see as often as we see him. He should be much creepier
>>150860146At this point there are more intimidating x-men villains or at least they are trying to become intimidating.Keeping Sinister as the mad scientist who wants Scott seed got old so they needed to change him.Anyway, blame Gillen for creating gay sinister.
>>150846046If they were real, that would have done serious damage.
>>150861718dammit>>150846052
>>150846103Extremis?
>>150845934tsk tsk tskShows the old avengers raycism still hard at workmuticia was just gonna lick that wound cleanthen work her way to colleen's pussy
>>150858362where's horse girl in all thisshe's the only one of those kids i remotely care about
>>150862275They haven't shown her in this timeline yetDuring the first Age of Revelation teaser back during the Timeslide oneshot (the details of which no longer seem to line up with this event) it looked like Bronze sought out Cable and Bishop because they were time travelling X-Men who somehow managed to make it to the current dystopia Bronze was there under orders from JitterBut Bronze's design looks different in Expatriate X-Men and it doesn't sound like she works with Jitter
>>150845730>Where Rogue is...in two different places at the same time?I mean, Wolverine's been doing it for decades, why wouldn't Rogue eventually acquire that power too?
>>150845872Hey! Check out how hard I can Pee!
>>150845747>>150845775>Shipping Ransom and TemperSimone that's racist as fuck.Also if I had a nickle for every time a hero mourned his wife so hard he wore a version of her costume, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.>>150845780Now that's just retarded.>>150845816This is even MORE retarded. Can't stand generic hordes like that.>>150845888>>150845890That's REALLY fucking retarded. As previously stated, there's no way in hell they shouldn't be able to work out a polycule.At least that means I have a chance with her.>>150845901You know, I can appreciate the Heavy Metal-esque atmosphere of the art, but the overly descriptive sound effects aren't working.
>>150861191I've noticed you can blame Gillen for created gay lots of things
I would mutant Black Cat
>>150845747>>150845753>>150845767I think Sentinel Boy is meant to be ShogoAll of his future versions have been consistently portrayed as either a Sentinel pilot or someone who uses Sentinel-tech for armorIt's a bit insulting though how Shogo has been ignored for the most part and the only time he finally appears in Simone's run is to appear for 5 pages and then die 3 pages later
>>150862769Isn't Shogo still in Otherworld from Howard Shitty Excalibur run?
Does anyone even care about this Revelation nonsense? Who thought it'd be a good idea to make Doug the big bad of an event?
>>150845780If she comes back as a little girl I'm calling bullshit.Of all the stories from Asterix to steal from why take one of the worst ones?
>>150859820He's been beneficial before in a similar scenario.>>150861191Gillen made Sinister great. Hickman turned him into a clown. Then Gillen had to come in and correct that.
