I love almost everything by Kieron Gillen, but this volume of Immortal X-Men is badly hampered by the need for lots of exposition explaining stuff from Sins of Sinister. Also, Mother Righteous is a terrible charactet. I did like the scenes between Sinister and Xavier.

It's not a terrible idea to stitch together the prequels with the sequels by sending Vader to Exegol, but there's nothing particularly interesting about this story. The art is equally meh.

1. Saw the Thunderbolts/ New Avengers. It had really great depression rep. I've been having a hard time with my depression lately so I felt really seen. (The reason I haven't been super active on here)
2. I planted strawberries and snap peas
3. Finally got a membership to Costco
4. Rainbow drink from my local cafe
5. Croissants

Catsandbooks @AnnCrystal That's pretty much all I watch. But even the funniest material is not going to fix my depression. That's just not how depression works. I can be laughing & smiling but still depressed. For me, my depression isn't being really sad, it's feeling numb & empty. Being utterly exhausted. Wanting to close my eyes & not deal with anything b/c life & the world feels so overwhelming. But I keep trying every day & that's what matters ❤️ 3w
AnnCrystal @Catsandbooks that is what matters 😘🙏💝. 3w
Catsandbooks @AnnCrystal thanks for the love and support! 🥰💕 3w

Thanks go to Panda Redd for making me aware of this one's existence. Sure it's dark, sad and gorey, but it's also a rollicking bop though classic literature, (the Little Women kick Deadpool's ass: I appreciate this) and the recognition that a) The comic book characters we know best have some powerful antecedents b) stories matter 1/2

Robotswithpersonality 2/2 c) a violent jaunt in graphic novel form doesn't necessarily do anyone any harm, as long as it's not what the entire comic book industry is reduced to. 1mo

Like peanut butter and chocolate, DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE are fantastic together. I don‘t even really care what they do, I know it will always be gory and hilarious. When the mysterious villain Delta plunges the disparate duo into violent scenarios for wealthy elites' viewing pleasure, they get much more entertainment value than expected. Really fun!

The DEFENDERS have always been the STAR TREK to the AVENGERS‘ STAR WARS. Meaning, less bombastic and more weird and thoughtful. Led by Dr. Strange, a group of mystical misfits must delve deep into the pre-cosmos to counter a threat to existence itself! Bizarre in a good way, but not as great as other tales from this team I‘ve read in the past.

This is the first Daredevil graphic I‘ve read. It seems a bit contrary a blind person can dive through a window as that will generally cripple or kill most able-bodied people.

Beyond that, may this be a the birth of a native-born Chinese undocumented immigrant? Coz that‘d be awesome.

The book did bring up the difficulties the undocumented have to deal with no matter how much they deserve to be citizens.

We definitely more of that message.

Soscha If finishing up the last of my Hoopla free reads if you can‘t tell. 😝 2mo

I was 15 pages into the book when I had the thought that you're not supposed to know what kid grows up to be Wolverine, lol

Really enjoying the art, so pretty 😍😍

Everyone thinks Bruce Banner is dead. But he‘s not. He‘s just wandering around the US waiting for nightfall when ‘the other guy‘ emerges. This ‘reboot‘ is great! It takes the book back to its gothic horror roots, establishing a Jekyll / Hyde dynamic (and a bit of vampiric flavor in that ‘he only comes out at night). That Hulk is also crafty and devious, makes this story interesting. Oh, and he‘s also immortal! Worth checking out!
