If that was horribly incoherent & babbly, sorry.
Hello, Violet! And thanks for that run-down of what's been happening with X-Men. It made sense to me, but I'm used to, um, complicated arcs in comics by now.
Doesn't matter that we took him off that boat, Shepherd, it's the place he's going to live from now on.

Liked Astonishing a lot, mainly for its retro-ness.
Also, I've concluded Joss must enjoy using the name Summers a lot.
And I realize how out of the X-Men loop I am in that I have no idea who Emma Frost is.
I really like Beast's feline look shrugs
And Kitty rocks like a rocking thing.
edited because I seem to have XF on the brain.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Frankenbuddha -- she's the White Queen. Ex-leader of the Hellions. You must have been gone a long time.

Yes, for I have read her, with my stopping at - I'm gonna go look for an exact date - yeah, I was right - 1984.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

It's been that long since she was in the title? But she has her own title now, though. I learned all my X-Men lore from the animated series, so I know who she is, generally.

No, Polter-Cow - she's been in it more recently than that - what I'm saying is, if one's never heard of her, then one hasn't been reading since a ridiculously long time ago.
I would like to read her title, now. Maybe then I could forgive her for being so hot when I want to hate her so much. (It's just so frustrating because - mean to Kitty! But SO sexy!) I will probably wait for the TPB though.

Heh. As far as I can tell, whoever draws the covers doesn't even read the issues. He just cranks out some picture of Emma looking really hot. Which, hey, I don't mind.

She's so hot. I'm kinda not looking forward to loaning the comic to my boyfriend because - I'm not that hot.

That or I'm just having a faulty memory (see also thinking it was Cyclops in MELTDOWN). Most of the X-stuff I read back in the day, I read once and that's about it. It was in the 80s - that much I'm sure of. I spent almost all the 90s new comics free.
I take it she WAS a bad guy but is now a good guy?

She's not hot, she's just drawn that way.
