My Blink-centric Marvel Snap deck is literally called "She's Bahamian", so it's nice to see other people remember that too

When Sam Guthrie and the former horseman known as Pestilence were turned into flesh-eating ghouls and went on a rampage, it was a real Caliban-Cannonball Cannibal Bacchanal.

My manager asked in passing if I was into hockey and I had to say no. Instead I spent my youth learning how to compose extremely niche posts like this.

UNCANNY X-MEN #387: Cry Justice, Cry Vengeance! Jean faces her past!

Should Jean Grey's first encounter with a D'Bari have been, you know, a bigger deal than some throwaway Maximum Security tie-in, where she's not even on the cover?

Maybe, but this is what we've got at UNCANNY X-CERPTS!

I also loved the initial run of Exiles, and even thought she was a standout (although in different form) in Phalanx Covenant, even in death. (Explains why she came back in such a big way for AOA.)

The Shi'ar didn't have a problem with Phoenix until she threatened planets they'd conquered. That's colonialism for you.

I was! The initial Winick-McKone-Sometimes Calafiore run was great.

For me it's Walt Simonson's Thor. Un-look-at-able. I need to get original printings of those pronto.
