Birthday gift from my 17 year old was a Gambit figure from 1994. We’ve been bonding over #MarvelSnap and he has gotten to know the characters. We’ve watched some #xmen97 together too. Very thoughtful…he is a good kid.
We bookend this issue with another Alan Davis pinup, this time showing Kitty Pryde repairing some electronics as her pet dragon Lockheed looks on! #marvel#excalibur
@gary_bbgames No I've never sold prints of my work that size and nearly all my shots are landscape. I don't know who did that but that looks like an expensive Michael Myers figure
I'm honored to be part of DC Pride Annual 2024, alongside a fantastic group of artists sharing powerful LGBTQ+ stories.
I did a Yellow themed feature with Catman and Thunder.
It's available now! #DCComics#LGBTQ+
@MarvelStudios will we see Kahhori again? I just leaned of her character in What If…? And loved her character so much.
“what would happen if the Tesseract fell to Earth & landed in the sovereign Haudenosaunee Confederacy before the colonization of America … leading Kahhori, a young Mohawk woman, on a quest to discover her power.”
@jthomas411mania While Guardians 1-3 overtook it as my favourite MCU films, I still adore this one. I agree entirely with you that Hemsworth deserved way more credit for finding the core of Thor very quickly.
Finished X-Men '97 - what an epic finale 🤯 Tolerance is Extinction – Part 3. Best tv show I watched this year. Can't get enough of the Newton Brothers banger tracks - is there a full OST release already? Couldn't find it on Tidal yet.
#XMen97 is some of the best work #MarvelStudios has done in years. People who complain about 'comic accuracy' don't understand that what the #MCU does best is take the BEST elements of several stories to tell one cohesive story and tell it well.
“Trial of Magneto,” Lifedeath,” “Inferno,” “E is for Extinction,” “Operation: Zero Tolerance,” Fatal Attractions.” All there, & more.
@jacklaridian I definitely remember being baffled when the original X-Men cartoon blew through long-running stories like the Legacy Virus, the Age of Apocalypse, and The Phalanx Covenant in two episodes each.
Re-watching the series as an adult, I was really impressed by the economy of storytelling. Looking back, the comics told these long, meandering stories without knowing where they were going, and the TV series rolled right through to give them actual resolutions.
@Thad@jacklaridian There are advantages to letting a story become backdrop for a while, e.g the legacy virus, but the economy absolutely works for an action show like X-Men. That said, there is also too quick; the adaptation of Inferno felt very short-changed. I'd have taken another episode of that over weight-loss Mojo.
