So I read this comic on marvel unlimited a few weeks ago that revisited some of the classic claremontian X-men stories (fall of the mutants was one-madelyne going eyes-crossed mad seeing jean and scott on tv) from a comedy point of view and the pages were in sepia color instead of white. I tried many sources now , I even asked AI but I can’t seem to find it (have i dreamt it?)
hey everyone! my boyfriend showed me that there’s speculation about casting new x-men films and was so hyped. he absolutely loves the x-men and has an acting background, and has been asking me who i think he could play. does anyone have any leads about casting calls? i wanna help him at least try to be in something he adores.
So I try my best to keep up with X-men comics usually I’ll buy them on Amazon and I’m loving X-factor, Exceptional and the rogue and Cyclops led books but I missed a lot of Krakoa due to lots of titles and wanna try my best to read the events is there an Omnibus or omnibi that cover all the main line? I’m pretty sure I can pick up marauders and etc afterwards and to note I did also read the end of Krakoa so I do know how it ends! Thanks in advance!
Idk it was just so obvious they were trying to say something. Hell especially since the first mutants were most of the people of colour on the team
Hello! I'm be straight foreward, I'm very new to X-men and i don't generally read comics. However, I got into it recently and am watching through the cartoons and movies and want to get into comics too! That's a post for later though.
I'm looking for a run/runs, arches, characters of the 90's!
I'm working on a novel, and it starts in 2003. Both characters are young, senior in high school and just out of high school in the beginning and fairly nerdy. The focus isn't on nerd culture or anything it's a gay love story but in giving them personalities I thought it would be fitting for them to be into X-men. Neither are out, and one hasn't even really connected the dots that he's gay yet but he feels like he's on the outside (also lives in pretty extreme poverty)
All this is just background I thought may matter to the type of comic rec or what may come up in coversation/who these may relate to. I am transmasc and gay so I have my own version of relating but I was curious about others.
What are some popular runs of the 90's (over very early 2000's)? New characters? Queer coded characters? Archs that would have been talked about?
Also, how common was it to be reading comics back then? Were you automatically a nerd if you liked superhero comics? Maybe made fun of? Takes place in rural Georgia if that matters. I was homeschooled so my experience was v different. Now, it's pretty standard to be into things considered nerdy, but I'm curious about the landscape.
(book takes place over like 15 years so it's not all high school but this is me trying to get a certain part right)
Sorry if this isn't very clear! Can answer questions if you need clarity!
I am an ESL Teacher in an Urban Area. Many of my students were out today in the “Day Without Immigrants” protest and I commend them for it.
For those who were here (I planned for a full class not a fraction so we did nothing) I showed X-Men ‘97. I do not know if it was a multitude of the current political climate, watching it in Spanish, or just my love for the x-men to represent an othered group so well in the world but we got up to the second episode, the court scene, and what happened to Storm.
Hearing Magneto speak his piece shortly after that scene (iykyk I’m trying not to spoil it), was just so poignant for myself and the few students I had here.
Fantastic show.
So, I have started watching X-men movies recently and I thought abt reading the comics, any suggestion of which i should start? I mean, I've met some people that said the first comics isn't exactly what they meant to be as a "sketch" and old dated histories without any specific order, but I don't exactly trust it.... what do you think?
Me and some of my friends have an X-men themed ttrpg one shot coming up. I’m playing as Cyclops and a friend is playing Nate Grey. I was just wondering if anyone had any good recommendations for comics featuring their relationship so we can better roleplay their dynamic.
:D
And what a ride it was. I loved it to bits. Sure it wasn’t perfect given the times and what not (as well as how wordy it was good lord) but it definitely made an X Men fan, most certainly for life.
