    also it is no secret my dream book is a toad mini based on that fact

    like if marvel hired me, I would do anything to write that toad book

    TLB, let's do a comic about Toad, after I finish the Chupracomic.

    I want

    Toad vs Razorfist

    because Razorfist is dumb as shit and Toad could kick the hell out of him and it would be great

    I liked Toad in X-Men Evolution, and Ray Park Toad in the movie. I've always liked Toad in 616 but never really got alot out of him because of him not really doing anything in the past five years. I want more Toad.

    Also, I guess Marvel dudes are talking about bringing back Sabertooth and Bishop at NYCC.

    I could talk about how I don't care to see dead people coming back all the time, but now I'm basically more annoyed by it never being a secret anymore. It's not so much a spoiler warning situation but more of the writers saying "Hey everyone in the panel room we're gonna bring back Sabertooth".

    EDIT: I would buy a TLB-written Toad mini.

    Spidey Toad and Frogman sounds like a blast, what was that in/how hard will it be to find?

    TLB you should write Toad: Legit

  • The Lovely BastardThe Lovely Bastard Registered User regular
    I can't really place who I would make Toad fight

    Part of me wants to go absolutely ridiculous

    But the part of me that knows story knows I gotta show the Toad I been talking up, and that would be more a character study

    Maybe play with the new continuity and have Toad desperately try to reform The Misfits since Wolverine isn't listening to a janitor

    wait shit it wasn't spidey, it was spider-kid aka the steel spider

    they were trying to be Spidey's sidekicks

    Well Toad was trying, after Spidey stopped him from killing himself

    also here is their first appearance but I swear I saw them again:

    Spidey is actually kind of a dick in it

    here's the thing:

    I don't care that no one in the Marvel Universe takes Toad seriously

    I just want to show why they should

    So no hanging out with Reed Richards and saving the world

    Just a chance to show that Toad isn't shit

    That's cool

    And better than a standard "he earns the respect through heroism" thing that a lot of people would do

    I think it would be good just to see Toad develop self-respect and overcome his issues somewhat in a series

    He already did. It was in X-Men Forever. Everyone in that series did, really.

  • The Lovely BastardThe Lovely Bastard Registered User regular
    the first x-men forever series did make toad not a hunchback anymore and gave him his tongue

    which lead to him not taking Magneto's shit anymore

    but he still falls back into the same pattern, save for his brief moment of triumph in The 198

    You guys want to know who else was a janitor?

    The fucking Toxic Avenger.

    They should team up and form a Janitors Union of Justice and kick the shit out of everyone.

    And I mean everyone.

    Dude was a snarky brit punk who was buddies with Cyclops and they would nerd out over Lord of the Rings and shit even when they were on opposing teams.
    this made me so happy, I loved their relationship a lot.

    and yes, TLB has exactly the right plans for a Toad mini.

    who the hell is that tetsuo mutant

    i haven't kept up with X-Men since around Civil War, I think

    He's one of the new mutants since hope's return,Kenji, fairly new character. Was one of the Five new mutants in the start of Generation Hope.

    Who's that holding Martha? also, Yay Teon! I hope they keep him interesting and fun. He's my favorite of the five lights.

    edit: on closer look I think it's Kenji carrying Martha, looks different when not tentacling (sp?)

    i'm sure he is

    but it's squicking me out

  • WiseManTobesWiseManTobes Registered User regular
    Careful with back ish's of Generation Hope then Anti, cause he does much creepier than that ( but in cool , story fitting ways at least, but if those pics creep you out, his origin may make you run screaming)

    i already decided to look him up

    they homaged a scene in akira

    already read that once, thanks

    just glad it was in black and white

  • Macro9Macro9 Registered User regular
    Akira in color is great

    Wait, are you talking about uncolored X-Men comics? Yeah, Kenji's introduction and appearance/powers are a huge homage to Akira. It sent a bunch of people into hissy fits.
