    I haven't picked up an issue yet but I gotta ask if there has been a sighting or any mention of the Box armor?

    Jeffries is one of the most underrated characters in the MU.

    No mention of Box armor



    SPOILERS:



    Alright I'm confused how Jeffries made machines that were beyond his manipulations. He controls, plastic, glass and metals not just with programming so how they were beyond his manipulations is beyond me

    I'm guessing trauma from the brainwashing over at Neverland. I may be wrong though.

    Holy double doctors! Varo was right...This Doctor Nemesis is not the one I was mentioning. I never realized there were two.

    The Doc Nemesis appearing in Uncanny X-Men # 505...

    I agree with Phil...It's probably psychological, perhaps he's subconciously punishing himself for what he did while brainwashed?

    Driftwood: Well, I got about a foot and a half. Now, it says, uh, "The party of the second part shall be known in this contract as the party of the second part."
    Fiorello: Well, I don't know about that...
    Driftwood: Now what's the matter?
    Fiorello: I no like-a the second party, either.
    Driftwood: Well, you should've come to the first party. We didn't get home 'til around four in the morning... I was blind for three days!

    Mailing list? Was it really that long ago?

    Must've been post '03, because that's when I started getting the DVDs.

    I've been thinking about this for a while... if you go by just what comes out of his mouth, it doesn't seem as if he's so crazy, except for the weird binary speak, but that's just a convention Fraction is using to convey his control over the machines... This is what Madison says:

    "I came up here to create in peace. Just wanted to make my machines and get smarter, yeah? Problem is, I did. Got too smart. So did the machines."

    "They decided they didn't need me anymore, learned how to self-replicate and adapt. Sealed off the bunker to the outside world and have tried to kill me ever since."

    So maybe that's really what happened. Paranoia is when you have an irrational fear of something that doesn't exist. Maybe he's not paranoid, and he really did create some sentient killer robots that he was unable to handle on his own. In issue #506 he seems perfectly normal, quick thinking, rational, not distracted or babbly... nothing really odd comes out of his mouth. You don't suddenly get instantly cured of a paranoia state... it takes a long time in psychotherapy to get a grip on reality. So I'm taking him on face value and deeming him sane from the get go.

    Love,
