Thread: Weird non-news might be news?

  1. #1

    Default Weird non-news might be news?

    Picked up the new X-Men #1 today, fully expecting to see either Northstar or Jeffries in the new vampire story line. Strangely, in the extensive appearance of the Science Team, no Jeffries. Just completely missing, where he ought to have been. It was sort of a medical scene, not so much tech, but it gave me the willies to think something might have happened to him in the yet-as-concluded Second Coming storyline. I'm just being paranoid, right?

    Love,

    Oh what a relief!!! So glad to see that image! Thanks, I'm understandably paranoid about Alpha Flight deaths, I suppose.

    Well, from comicbookreasources, more non news but a chance to pesterize...

    Just like we've done with Cup O' Joe, we're going to be asking fans for questions for future installments of Marvel T&A to pick your brains. So I hope you're ready for a lot of questions about where Alpha Flight is...

    That's a huge relief. I really, really did not want to buy this (picture a nasty adjective, insert it here ) issue, but I'd have 'had to' if there was an Alpha appearance.

    (Sorry, I've been seeing promos, and it really, utterly fails to appeal - see that article I wrote about how cold that cover is. Okay, wait to see if I bother writing that article and posting it, then see it...)

    I just think it's really odd that the X-Men's foes all seem to be demons and the "undead" lately...First: Demons of Limbo, then risen-from-the-dead techno-mutants (I will never understand why the writers chose to completely resurrect Cypher/Doug Ramsey, though...Seriously?...Cypher?...I just don't get it ) and now vampires....Aaarrgh!

    EDIT: I didn't even think about the whole "religious" aspects of Messiah Complex and Second Coming...Aaargh again.

    Can I use the word "TOOLS" to describe these two guys or would that be inappropriate? Just asking.

    Well, you are a digger. You should know a tool when you see one.

    ... as long as you don't call Annette a tool.

    I actually took this as good news, he didn't say they were dead.

    Than again, how sad is it that a chuckling comment is taken as good news.

    I've already put a question in on the T&A thread about AF. Why don't we swamp them with questions and teach them a lesson?

    Because Quesada and Brevoort have admitted to spiteful fan-baiting, to the point where Quesada has said that pissing off fans is one of his goals? Seems like that trying to "teach them a lesson" might be a good way to get a few more Alphans killed off.
