Hi OP. Holding off on my sleeping pills for this.
Kevin Phillips
issue #2 is anyone missed it yesterday
Eli Taylor
House of X sucks, I don't care what anyone else says
Thomas Jackson
The HiX-Men orgy has begun
Matthew Baker
I'm over here making vague wanking motions
Daniel Taylor
Hello, Storyteller.
Eagerly awaiting the quirky lab rat character.
Connor Evans
omg, the back of his shirt
Austin Barnes
I like how they all stood around naked and dripping for a mock-religious ceremony. I'd take that over charts if they'd stop being cowards and show the dick.
Really at this point the only X-Men content I'm interested in would be like "The Real Housewives of the X-Mansion"
Jordan Edwards
can you show dick even in a MAX book? Way bak when he was writing F4, Hickman said his dream book was an X-Men MAX book
Angel Allen
Michael Adams
They probably should put up another sign reading "Warning: Disarm All Interogating Officers" too.
Hey OP. Actually here for the thread this time! No middle of the night posting for me!
Juan Taylor
HI user
HI EVERYONE
Liam Gonzalez
At work but reading along!!
Only got through HoX and Inferior Five today. HoX was great and 5 was an alright start. I’m furious how good Hickman has rehabbed and made important the Bendis Mutants
Lucas Morgan
Well not reading along, shitposting along
Charles Perry
Furthermore, would anyone actually want to see any X-character's dick at this point? Aside from Mystique's of course.
Also, I am legitimately interested in what this thing between Girl One and the Sarge is, and why it matters that dogs are colorblind.
Lincoln Edwards
>Furthermore, would anyone actually want to see any X-character's dick at this point?
lmao yes
Alexander Stewart
shitposting is fine from one of our valued readers
ha, the Junior League is a sort of upper-class women's civic organization. The kind of thing a Highland Park Dallas woman would be into.
Isaac Bailey
did you miss issue 2?
She told Irmageddon that she's naked. She's not wearing a suit, rather her skin can create patterns and pigments.
Dogcop, being colour blind, always sees her naked.
Carter Rodriguez
yes?
Isaac Hernandez
oh shiiiiiiiiiiii-
Gavin Gonzalez
a quart of vodka, I salute you, comrade
Robert Russell
>Metavac, Fischmann, and Goebbels
>the shark lawyer's name is Fischmann
... See, shit like this is why I'm certain that Moore is projecting and doesn't hate superheroes, but the comics industry/fandom. Like, come the fuck on.
Isaiah Carter
>Cyborg Dog-man in a Sailor Jerry Hawaiian Shirt.
Caesar is a good boy.
It's genuinely amazing how obliterated the X-Men franchise has made itself, narratively.
This is what, like the sixth Mutant Island utopia they've had?
Liam Bennett
Moore loves superheroes, he hates most superhero writers, deservedly
Tyler Collins
Seriously love that Mongoose Blood is getting this much name dropping. Best power source ever.
Jeremiah Price
To be fair...most long running books are pretty obliterated narratively.
Julian Howard
Liam Evans
I love every single thing about this page.
Elijah Evans
>Also, I am legitimately interested in what this thing between Girl One and the Sarge is, and why it matters that dogs are colorblind.
I'm thinking her "clothes" are colour based and without them dazzle camouflaging her, her public nudity is REALLY obvious.
Camden Williams
With how utterly fucked the franchise is at this point, are you absolutely sure you want to see any of their dicks?
Ooooooh! Okay, I admit, you got me on that one, Alan. 3deep5me.
Ayden Miller
glad Alan Moore could join us as we read his comic
Wyatt Cooper
>people freaking out over a poke at silver age doofiness joke in Jimmy Olson and calling Clark "a sociopathic monster"
Why are Superman fans so thin skinned?
Evan Brooks
This is the kind of scifi future I'd want to live in.
Mason Cruz
Is Pete suffering Electile Disfunction from the dead girl?
Carter Bennett
Jacob Roberts
>Trainer
Moore realy needed an editor to go over this and Americanize terms as needed.
Isn't a quart kind of a light night, for a Russian?
Cameron Reyes
On the right is the original scans from back in the day and on the left the Vertigo trade, which I take to be digital copies. Does it look like Top Ten was recolored fro the trades or the colors muted? Or possibly the original scans were oversaturated? Anyone know?
Adam Reed
That saddle is 100% going to kill that dude
Alexander Watson
i see more people bitching about fraction existing than about superman specifically.
Jonathan Richardson
Oops, on the left is the comic scans, the right the Vertigo trade.
Liam Diaz
Peter's a narrow-minded stupid bigot. (Hates robots.)
He's so screwed mentally, the dead girl added little or nothing.
Gavin Jackson
That looks more like saturation based on paper used.
Digital sources for things usually look lighter. I just grabbed the trade printing for this, and it looks close to something in the middle, being a bit darker than the digital
Kayden Stewart
>With how utterly fucked the franchise is at this point, are you absolutely sure you want to see any of their dicks?
I specifically want to see Colossus' unedited dick from that one swimsuit issue.
Brody Cook
Moore always struck me as a fun hating hipster. And then there's glorious hijinks like this.
Considering the borderline ruined reputation of the character in recent years, it's hard to blame them. It's like Mega Man in MvC 3(I think) that was modeled after that shitty box art. Normally, this would be a perfectly fine joke, but it came in the middle of Capcom actively shitting on the MM franchise, so fans were rather less than amused.
Lincoln Nelson
Aaron Clark
Jack Sanders
the smax miniseries is going to break your mind.
don't spoil any of it for yourself though.
Charles Stewart
Bentley Rivera
Gotcha. I'm preferring the saturated colors. thanks for the lowdown.
Jeremiah Carter
Justin Green
>Dogs have no sexual interest in humans
Oh yeah? Tell that to my leg.
Or the thriving community of Dogfuckers online.
Cameron Turner
Alexei taking an early best boy lead here.
Brody Martin
everyone's reading him as Wallace Shawn, right?
Asher Perry
>Moore always struck me as a fun hating hipster. And then there's glorious hijinks like this.
I think his more famous works aren't heavy on the comedy, but he's always had a damn good funny bone. Read The Bojeffries Saga, DR and Quich, and the ABC Anthology series, I forget what it's called, it had some good humorous shorts in it. I mean, a dude who worships a sock puppet has got to have a good sense of the hahas, right?
Justin Cox
Aaron Garcia
It does seem to be a Cjheckov's Saddle.
>Uncle Gojira
Nice.
Easton Jenkins
Ryder Lee
Moore is capable of writing all kinds of fun stuff... but he has a pretty long history of making derisive, hypocritical comments shitting on anyone who ever enjoyed his work.
Brandon Hernandez
Jeremiah Price
Yay, it's Fischmann! I can't explain why I like the fucking lawyer shark, cause it's such a stupid " hurr hurr lawyers bad" joke. Maybe I just like his design.
Grayson Young
DAMMIT
Brayden Martinez
Is that a slam on lawyers or Jews?
That would be INCONCEIVABLE
Christian Powell
Brandon Collins
oh my god
do we want to read another tonight?
Charles Ortiz
If you want to.
I love that he's drinking BEER TRANSPORT TRUCKS
James Morris
Ruthless cutthroat leaders are also nicknamed "sharks" user. It's a super literalist joke.
Like if they had a navy diver who was a squid.
Elijah Morales
Yes! I'm enjoying this insanity.
Joseph Edwards
>granny goodwrench
Jayden Reyes
Isaiah Nguyen
David Lewis
Sure, I'm down for another. This book is fun.
>No fat chicks
... Brought to you by the guy who wrote Watchmen, folks!
Xavier Richardson
Noah Howard
Evan Barnes
Huh, how did Jack Phantom find the time/opportunity to grope this biplane lady?
Elijah Ramirez
Angel Johnson
everything about this is disgusting and hilarious
Ethan Morales
Carter Richardson
Well, naturally Alexei would understand interspecies love.
Anthony Gray
Christopher Reyes
Agreed, that's perfect.
John Gonzalez
James Gutierrez
William Wilson
Moore comes off like a curmudgeon because whenever he’s interviewed by comic nerds it’s the same handful of stupid questions about the same handful of books. I feel like the Big Bad Moore persona is something people project on him more than he cultivates. It’s gonna be hilarious if cartoonist kayfabe gets an interview with him
And I don’t understand that people here seem NOT on board with Hickman X-men/HOXPOX
Jayden Collins
I just can't get enthused about any x-men stuff after the last 7 years of them
Carter James
Hickman X-men has been the best they've been in years. "No more mutants" basically broke them,almost as much as OMD broke Spidey.
Evan Richardson
I give Hickman's elaborate wheels within wheels stuff the stinkeye until he pegs the landing, after his Avengers joyless grind
Brayden Ward
Moore is fun, Hickman isn't
Brody Wright
Elijah Price
>And I don’t understand that people here seem NOT on board with Hickman X-men/HOXPOX
Because Yea Forums absolutely hates the X-Men since a few years back, and everyone here wants to see ALL mutants characters brutally murdered on the page.
Not helping is Hickman portraying Xavier as a devious, shadowy manipulator and all currently active mutants as his brainwashed supremacist cult.
Cooper Lee
Levi Bennett
Mason Nguyen
>whenever he’s interviewed by comic nerds it’s the same handful of stupid questions
Yep. There are some amazing interviews of his out there on magic, politics, and just about everything under the sun. Done by actual journalists. Only don't expect to read them on comics sites. I recall one, possibly on The Comics Journal, around the time Lost Girls came out that really turned my mind around on the subject matter of the comic.Very enlightened fellow.
Anyone here read Jerusalem? I keep passing by it in my local library.
Isaac Morgan
... Wasn't Boots id'd as being like 14?
Elijah Edwards
I kinda like Colby. She's surprisingly chill for a not-Hawkgirl who just suffered a cracked rib from inflation man here. Just gonna call this very stupid day a wash.
Also, her design is really cool.
Ayden Campbell
>Also, her design is really cool.
Just a warning, that's not her real hair, it's part of her headgear.
Jeremiah Torres
Dominic Collins
Should I be worried about what's under that headgear?
Joseph Allen
Aaron Wood
Her real look is 10/10 though
Jose Green
So the Libra Killer is Pennywise the Dancing Clown? Or Sewer Aquaman?
Nolan Diaz
also she's a christcuck
Ryder Walker
Oh yeah. Ew.
That reminds me, I have recently discovered the deep, dank hole of nightmares that is r/relationships. It's... something.
Bentley Harris
be more subtle, Alan
Kevin Gonzalez
I feel like all the Xavier is evil stuff is jumping to a less interesting place than the ambiguity? And I think whatever the reveal is will play along with that.
As someone who’s also hated a bunch of his Marvel work I’m so amazed that I’m drinking the kool aid.
Julian Fisher
Jeremiah Diaz
Gavin Nelson
Carter Fisher
now we know why johns hates moore
Liam Hill
Alexander Sullivan
jealousy?
Brayden Sanchez
stargirl's a drug addict
Jonathan Gomez
better than a slut
Jaxson Taylor
Okay, no. You do not get to do this shit in THIS book of all things, Moore. Especially considering this scene involves a soul sista who hears color, a telepathic cosmonaut, and a devil worshiping shaman. "But comics are for babies tho!" Fuck all the way off with that.
Josiah Watson
I don’t think Stargirl even works in the current DCU, like who is she without that history/legacy
Gavin Torres
I challenge you to find me a female drug addict who isn't a slut if only to feed her addiction.
Parker Hernandez
Cooper Cox
she doesn't. she flopped when they tried her back when new 52 started.
teen idol or something
Anthony Myers
Aiden Sullivan
comics are for children
she didn't work before
Alexander Sullivan
Shit like that is why New 52 was such a goddamn bad idea.
Aaron Jenkins
I mean, he's a dog, who doesn't trust dogs
Brody Kelly
The best thing about this book of many good things is it doesn't waste any fucking time on AS YOU KNOW, BOB, we're just along for the ride
Angel Davis
also this is gonna suck
Thanks for reading! This is amazing! Back SUNDAY!
Mason Davis
if New 52 hit the ground running instead of giving origin after origin story it couldve been good
just throw them in a world, cleaned up a little bit
Leo Hernandez
Cat people with their weird poo eating brain parasites.
Dogs are basically symbiotic lifeforms with humans. They're like if Venom couldn't turn into clothes.
And wow, Peregrine is BUILT.
Hudson Cox
Crush me Lt. Peregrine
Parker Lee
Thanks OP
Give me Hawkwoman that built in the canon. Carter is always fucking ripped anyway
Alexander Robinson
Thanks for running, OP.
See you Saturday, because apparently that's how things work now.
Lucas Kelly
Thanks for posting as always, Storyteller.
Yeah, Top Ten is fuckin solid so far. I wonder if the... I guess I'd call it subtle characterization is common in Moore's work, because while it's not overt, everyone is distinct.
It's so refreshing to not be inundated with gratuitous exposition. The world is allowed to speak for itself, and it feels so natural.
Josiah Rodriguez
Lol, Azz BoP cancelled
Hunter Jones
this kink is okay
hah, no, my next day off actually is Sunday, promise
Robert Ortiz
There's a lot of gratuitous exposition in the Smax miniseries, but it works perfectly within the story.
In short, Smax visits home with Slinger, and uhh, things are very different.
If you want the tiniest of spoilers OP, Smax is very angry about elves
Elijah Sanchez
I, too, am angry about elves
Brayden Gutierrez
don't click if you want to miniseries to be a blind read.
It's not a big spoiler, but a showing of the level of hate that smax has for them
William Harris
also
Aiden Jones
That isn't how colorblindness works. Caeser would merely see slightly different sets of colors all along her skin. Or Monotone B/W if we're going with that hollywood version of colorblindness.
Jayden Davis
Not saying "A woman who was last seen speaking with you."
Or "A woman called Immune Girl"
No, you go with the ever so sensitive "murdered prostitute" WHILE HIS WIFE IS IN THE ROOM!
Ryder Allen
>Is that a slam on lawyers or Jews?
I mean, there's overlap, but prolly Lawyers.
Camden Hughes
From 200 feet up, no less. Gotta admire the man's dedication to his..craft?
