    do you mean second coming, as in the x-men title? Or did you just suddenly get over excited half way through writing that post?

    That is a disturbing title for an event. Second Coming. It's so easy to make fun of, like here and the title of the X-Men thread.

    Is that supposed to be Kitty? If so then I might need to bitch about how I was hoping Joss Whedon would return to Astonishing to do another arc with Cassaday and they'd bring her back together.

    I was actually quite pissed about her coming back just like that, but when I got to the end of 521 and saw her, I nerded out and was just happy to have her back. Now bring back Jubilee with her powers and not as a vampire and I'll be set.

    Oh, and also I wish someone at marvel would shoot down these rumors of
    Nightcrawler getting killed in Second Coming, because I will be done with comics if that happens.

    Look.

    XMen was pretty terrible for a while so I dropped it. Between the Greg Land art and the Matt Fraction plot that was treading water and going absolutely nowhere, I got fed up with it. I have no idea what's going on with the XMen anymore.

    You're on the internet. If you want to see some tits, or have something to jerk off to, there's no shortage of material available to you.

    But by embracing every negative stereotype about comic fandom, you denigrate a medium I love, and that irritates me. You're entitled to do what you want, but to boast about your wall-o-titties is just bewildering to me.

    I wasn't boasting. That is one wall and really, not too many are as bad as you're trying to make them out to be. Actually, the only one I can even imagine you having a problem with is the heroes for hire cover. It's not bad to me. It's just a cover. Not to mention the artist of the cover is a woman.

    That xmen legacy with rogue and spider-woman #7 happen to be amazing to me. I don't know what stereotype you're talking about to be honest. I don't watch Big Bang Theory. If I see a cover I like, I put it on my wall. I have all the Utopias and all the hoods up, a section for my favorite avengers covers, and a section for my favorite spider-man covers. My favorite marvel heroes are women and I made a wall for that.

    You created, in your own words, a wall of "hot" Marvel covers, not just an assemblage of covers featuring Marvel heroines. The latter's fine, the former's just off-putting to me. It's like guys who prominently display posters of women in bikinis on their bedroom wall.

    We all know why that poster's there, and it's not because you appreciate the photographer's aesthetic.

    They are all hot. I won't lie. Wall of super heroines sounds a little lame to me. Wall of hot may sound more perverted, but what I can I say. I really do follow every character I put on my wall, they wouldn't be up there if I didn't.

    I love The Hood and I love Spider-Woman, so on my wall they go. Spider-Woman was actually a really good series and it shouldn't have ended. It wasn't even supposed to.

    See, that cover should be bad, and probably under another artist it would be (like the J Scott Campbell Black Cat cover he did recently), but Sejic is so good it kind of makes you feel sad for Medusa.

    Besides, that Inhumans cover shouldn't be lumped in with cheesecake covers I don't think, it's really quite lovely in a way that has nothing to do with implied nudity.

    It was a joke numb nuts.

    I'm not going to discuss it again with a whole new group of people that don't even read the thread, so I'll simply say to anyone who is being a puss about a wall devoted to marvel girls.

    Eat my ballsac. Eat my poop doopy ballsac jenkins. I don't give a fuck.

    Speaking of my favorite covers.
