What about Sinister? He's pretty sinister.
Let me guess. We're in a hurry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi
Great drawing, Gloomcookie!
There is an antitrust trial involving a well-known software manufacturer right now, and every time I see a Google News headline that refers to "Oracle Trial...," I do a double-take.
Having just reread the reread-worthy pre-Simone bits of BoP, though, I am once again amused by the G-ratedness of it all, especially given the skimpitude of the outfits all the superheros wear. Nightwing comes over the Oracle's apartment, there's massive smoochies, and the next thing we see it's the next morning, and... he's apologizing for having fallen asleep on the couch? Fully dressed? Uh-HUH....
Dick Grayson: Man-ho trapped in a world he never made. Literally.

I may have to seize the cat.
Phoenix = Cool. Jean Grey, sans Phoenix? nsm. I support all the characters you named that I've read anything of. Forge, in 1985, looks like Freddie Mercury.

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

I missed all the Sinister episodes.

No Man's Land is so good - I can't wait to see how they come back from that to modern Gotham. I just love post-disaster and apocalypse stories, so this is pushing all my buttons. The art is weirdly inconsistent though - characters look wildly different, even in a single volume (I'm just done with Vol 2, so it may be different in later books).

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
But as long as you aren't dissing Storm or Wolverine or Colossus or Rogue or Gambit or Professor X or Angel or Forge I'm pretty much good.
Angel? ANGEL? The X-Man most likely to need rescuing? How can you not diss him?

Is NOT! tries furiously to work out who needs it more
But it's possible that I'm coloured by him in Ultimate, where he's oddly broody and forlorn.
Hey .. in the main title, isn't he making time with Husk? That's kinda gross.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I've always liked Apocalypse. Cause he's ginormous and apocalyptic.
Yeah, but then you do a team-up supercombo on his hand and he dies. Not exactly a fearsome enemy. t /X-Men vs. Street Fighter

Honestly, I think all of the Ultimate-verse X-men are pretty nifty. There's some I prefer original-verse and some I prefer Ultimate-verse, but I can't think of any I have issues with. Though I think Cyclops forgiving Wolverine for dropping him off a cliff was a little forced.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
No Man's Land is so good - I can't wait to see how they come back from that to modern Gotham.
That was my reaction, too -- because, reading it, there doesn't seem any way to come back from the devastation.
