GLAD I WENT WITH THE MANIAC MANSION PIC AND NOT WHAT I ORIGINALLY GOOGLE IMAGE SEARCHED FOR. IT WAS JAPANESE TENTACLE PORN AND IT WAS ALL BAD. VERY VERY BAD.
I ALSO MAILED IN THE TITLE, BUT SO DID CLAREMONT, SO WE'RE EVEN THERE.
YEAH COOL THIS IS TOTALLY NORMAL. JUST A NICE NORMAL PICTURE OF A REGULAR EVERYDAY REDHEADED WOMAN. NO BIG WHOOP.
I WILL NEVER EVER EVER WATCH AN EPISODE OF THE WEST WING ON PURPOSE. WHO THE FUCK SEEKS OUT SHOWS LIKE THAT? NETWORK TV POLITICAL DRAMA? FUCK THAT SHIT. FUCK IT DEEPLY.
COOL PARTY DUDES, GUESS MY INVITE GOT HELD UP BY MY SPAM BLOCKER. NO WORRIES, JUST TEXT ME FOR THE NEXT ONE.
PARTY FOUL, BRO. NOT COOL.
HERE'S SOME TOTALLY FUCKED UP SHIT.
I'M SICK OF YOU FREAKS.
This was a weird one, if you couldn't tell. Doesn't help that we get a pretty so-so guest penciler, Kieron Dwyer. He's not terrible, but he's no Marc Silvestri, who's since moved on to the Wolverine solo comic book. I also think Dwyer is John Byrne's step son, but I could be wrong and I don't feel like looking it up.
OK I looked it up and it's true. But who gives a shit. Point is Silvestri is no more and that is sad. And Jim Lee needs some time to draw a bunch of issues so he can become the regular artist and still make deadlines so we have a slew of guest draughtsman on the way. None of them particularly good. It's probably due to Marvel going to a twice a month shipping schedule so they can stack up that adolescent allowances. Get that paper Marvel.
I also didn't start regularly collecting new issues for another few months or so, maybe a year, and I remember picking up these issues a year after they were published and trying to piece together all the storylines nonsequentially. Obviously that didn't go well and I was super fucking confused. I was also reading classic X-Men, which was reprinting Cockrum's second run (I think) and would get the continuity all fucked into a massive cluster.
But what the fuck did I care, I was ten years old and had ten bucks a week to spend on bullshit. So there you go, that was my fucking life. Very interesting, I know.
Anyway, with the Dazzler story wrapped up, (I think she's done for the remainder of the Claremont run) and Wolveroonie's Asian adventures on pause, the Forge/Banshee and Colossus storylines are featured. Colossus still has amnesia and is still hanging out with Genoshan runaways. Forge and Banshee randomly run into Jean Grey who then get bufu'd by Masque and the Morlocks, who are really into the whole tentacle thing right now.
We also get some flashbacks to Forge's time in the Nam. He was in the shit. He's been to the bad bush and I don't mean what's between ol mama-san's legs. Anyway, fuck him he still sucks.
And nothing gets resolved this issue so let's just wrap this up and see what happens next week. Great plan, NEXT!
