Today was a bit of an emotional comics day. Enough so that by the time I got to reading the latest "This is who the X Men are today" comic, Kitty Pryde's entry almost made me misty. "She's too young to fight crime!"

Yeah.

Still, Nightwing and Ultimate X-Men both went places.

And the knowledge that you COULD know will torture you the rest of the afternoon!

Bwahahahahaha!!!

It will. I know.

I'm trying HARD not to cave.

I'm trying HARD not to cave.

And I'm trying hard to taunt you until the moment you get to read. Like the fact that I read it. Neener .

Okay, so read "1602" last night.

Loved it. Until the end.

Then I was all "Whuh? With...buh...Whuh?"

Anybody else?

And I'm trying hard to taunt you until the moment you get to read.

ARGH.

And I've seen at least two people saying how good it was.

3-4 hours. I can do it. I can do it. I can do it.

I'll just, umm... re-read Robin: Year One. And gnaw on my lip. Hard. Meep.

The obsession is worse than I thought. I *resent* that this is AtS night as well, because I'm not going to want to focus on anything but this, no matter what happens.

Then I was all "Whuh? With...buh...Whuh?"

Kinda yeah. It started strong and ended, well, it felt like he needed at least one more issue.

Not only that, but...(white font ahoy!) "Hey, Cap...yeah, you, Captain America, you know, the Marvel Universe's most noble hero and whatnot...yeah. Your very presence here back in time? Yeah, it's going to destroy everything that ever was or will be! But it's cool, yo. All you gotta do is go back through this here portal thingie..."

"I ain't goin' back."

"Come again?"

"I ain't goin' back. I'm gonna save the America I lost."

"Yeah, did you fall asleep during the whole 'destroy everything that ever was or will be' part of my speech?"

Whuh?

Well, you gotta figure that with all that's happened to the poor guy, he's probably not firing on all cylinders anymore.

But better would've been, NNNOOO!!! They stick needles in me there! It's horrible! I don't care if everything's destroyed! It didn't work out right anyway!!

Also, can we assume that things didn't really go back to normal? We know what event kicked off the Marvelverse too early, but the repair actions don't fully make the appearance of super-powers go away. I'm thinking Daredevil here; you could argue that his power isn't really a superpower, but it still means Daredevil existed too early.

The one thing I did like was the "fallout" from the repair effort.

I love fallout.
