No. It’s exactly what happened in the comics; Mystique appeared in that sleeper-hit film adaptation of a young adult novel, her career took off and Xavier realized what a capable leader she was.

Protip: Keep a crush that is within your mutual friend group to yourself. Figure yourself out, and do it quickly. It is possible to navigate it and keep healthy relationships intact but your big mouth can easily get in the way.

Their slo-mo walk was THE BEST. Rose is also the MVP supporting character of this season, for sure. I loved the through the window shot of her clapping along with the one man band, and then kicking his ass.

I fucking love Destiny, and haven’t been so into a game in quite some time. I am suffering from Destiny malaise in that I haven’t even really played in a few weeks, though my clan is active and we just recruited some fresh blood, and I haven’t regularly raided since early December.

That's not true, I'm an asshole and I drive a sedan

I think it all comes down to the visuals. It looks more impressive on the screen for the Starkiller to draw energy from a nearby star. It’s a constant reminder to the audience during those outdoors shots that the clock was ticking before it would be charged and ready to fire.

The Vonnegut was a Firefly-class ship, was it not? Originally called the Kaylee when he captured it.

“If you need to stop an asteroid, you call Superman. If you need to solve a mystery, you call Batman. But if you need to end a war, you call Wonder Woman.”

The most common train of thought is that Steve stands up for the American ideal, and isn’t just a government flunky. That’s consistent with what he’s done in the comics over the years.

Hot damn that was a fun episode. There was so much going on, it felt like Ocean’s Eleven. If there is anything to take away from this episode (and there is a LOT), it’s that Ward is one of the best villains in the MCU at this point. He still lags behind Loki (come on it’s not even fair) but he’s got to be top three.…

So. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Marvel TV is really good at not hiding the ball and having these characters interact like humans, instead of hiding vital information that is immediately helpful for the sake of suspense or plot or making incredibly dumb choices for those same reasons. Daisy’s mom is cray…

Embracing inside jokes about themselves is how you know a game is headed in the right direction.

Even if that's not a callback to the legendary Atheon ledge glitch, I'm going to pretend it is and say that is unlimited awesome.

Oh man, one part of the quest is to jump off the Tower while wearing an Atheon mask. PERFECT.

Time to go egg Erin’s ship.... Oh wait.

Not to be pedantic, but part of the joke about being “the best botanist on Mars!” was that he was the *only* botanist on Mars... :)

Welcome back kids! I hope you had a great summer. How was camp? Did you get your braces off? Did you do the required pre-reading? No, well it’s time to do the reading. Alright, let’s get back into the swing of things.

Great, now I’m sweating over turning them all in. Thanks, Jason.
