if there's something strange, up in space ...

... who you gonna call?

BALLBUSTER!!!

 sorry, Abigail Brand may be a ballbuster, but you need to call the X-Men. i just needed to make something rhyme.

after mostly ignoring Joss Whedon's later-than-never-yet-deliciously-good Astonishing X-Men run, the X-writers co-opt it well, what with the return of Kitty Pryde (thank you, Magneto), and now an angle of what happened in Breakworld post-arm-breaking by Colossus. maybe there will be a resolution to Kitty's permanent phasing too?

Kieron Gillen, whose brief Thor run i did enjoy immensely, is off to good start.

snaps: S.W.O.R.D. #1

what we learned in S.W.O.R.D. #1: (take note, this book is not by the Luna Brothers!)


1) Hank McCoy apparently evolved into a dog-like horse. or a horse-like dog. whatever. it's scary.


and not only that, his head apparently wants to challenge Modok in the 2010 "World's Biggest Head" Championship.


2) who needs Lou Dobbs, Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity or Fox News? Henry Gyrich is HERE!!!


3) apparently, Mr. Freeze is imprisoned in the Peak as some sort of emphatic Googling machine.


4) Lockheed is a fucking drunk.


5) That being said, the bugger still cares for Kitty. yay! finally somebody's doing something about it. (no thanks to you, Joss Whedon.)

fall on your ...

Saving the World - Oh, Really Dude!!!

let's see .... Breakworlders, Skrulls, and lately some nasty humans bio-engineering mutants to kill mutants. that's a great record, Abby.
