I always liked when Cable wore a costume that had similarities to one of his father’s. It’s a nice visual connection between the two characters.

I know it’s a me problem, but man I wish we could just go back to the 30-60 dollar price point of slightly out of scale but still affordable collectible vehicles.

This post just reminded me of Mike Fahey. I miss him. 

Huyang reminds me a lot of the robots on the cover of 80s Asimov reissues . Which makes sense , since it turns out they were drawn by Ralph McQuarrie ,and his early droid prototypes for Star Wars were pretty similar in style.

typeusernamehere already mentioned that he’s swinging a bullroarer, but I thought it would help to hear what that sounds like. You tube video code 2ODGE2f7gLQ (embedding was disabled by the owner).

That’s Gateway swinging his bullroarer that allows him to teleport people. 

That’s Gateway, he’s an Aborigine and he can create portals that can lead to any place, time, or even other universes. Creating the portals requires a lot of focus so he spins the sling around as a kind of meditation ritual to help himself concentrate.

It’s certainly an aesthetic that was more or less the standard way to depict female heroes for several decades. Part of it is related to the general idea of super heroes as modern interpretations of ancient godly pantheons, but a lot of it was just sexism from an industry that was dominated by men. Things like that…

It could have mentioned that Tom Brevoort is number 2 so its pretty much the boss stepping in to run X-Men now that they matter again.

And that’s why large breasts are referred to as “the most common superpower”

Mutant circuits, mutant magic/mysticism, mutant ascendancy, and a casual approach to free love/polyamory in place of love triangles were all a massive breath of fresh air.

They were extremely popular for years on end and able to stand toe-to-toe with the likes of Spider-Man and the Avengers

In the grand scheme of things when there were events such as half of humanity being wiped out, alien shapeshifters in the highest positions of world government, rogue robots, evil extragovernmental organizations trying to rule the planet, witches that can create dimensions, and gods, the idea that mutants are the…

The headline is clickbait. The actual content is “Longtime editor Tom Brevoort is moving from the Avengers to the X-Men.” That’s it.

I agree Hasbro is overpricing their products, but no 6" figures are in that price range anymore. All 1/12 scale figures MSRP starts at $20 nowadays.

I think that these figures have gotten way too expensive. They should be between $5 and $8. Instead we get one that want to be priced like McFarlane collectibles. If they really wanted to jumpstart sales, - reissue the Clone Wars figures and vehicles.

Awesome cast, Diggle from Arrow, several former MMPR actors aside from JDF, looks great! RIP JDF, dude was a legend, I’m glad his final film not only got finished, but is releasing. 

Diggle! 

DC Animation has built up a lot of good will with me even if they’re not all winners (looking at you, 2023 Legion of Superheroes movie). I enjoyed the Flashpoint & Justice League Dark movies in particular quite a bit. Crisis feels like it should be a mini-series though - would be hard to do it justice in 90m.

Don’t we have enough gritty modern reboots of beloved 80's cartoons?
