    Apparently WotR has each of the armies of Malekith's forces A) winning and B) claiming a continent for themselves with what heroes are left dividing into teams to try and rebel against the new overlords

    This is the team for North America, which is now New Jotunheim

    Oh, well THAT explains all the cold recently.

    This style makes me think its gonna be a cheaply made Flash animated joint

    Also I am surprised they went for the 4 series leading into a crossover series approach AGAIN after Defenders flopped

    The streaming network and Marvel will create four new animated series, all executive produced by Jeph Loeb

    EDIT: Also that's a decent redesign of Tigra. Curious if they'll have Dazzler be a retro-inspired audience, or if they'll actually have her be from the 70's.

    Yes? Jeph Loeb has a habit of turning things he touches to shit, was my point.

    It doesn't make me feel vaguely like I should be sent to prison for seeing it, so actually it looks nothing like Drawn Together to me.

    At least he's participating, unlike Logan.

    Am I off base, or has the cowboy hat only really become Logan's Thing in the last couple of years

  • never dienever die Registered User regular
    It’s been a part of his attire since at least the late 70s/early 80s, though when it comes up varies. I remember it during he early part of Claremont’s run, it coming up again as a loon during the Morrison run, Cassidy Inthink kept it, etc.

  • OmnipotentBagelOmnipotentBagel floof Registered User regular
    Yeah it's been a part of his civvys forever. Lately he just hasn't really been in-uniform, so it's showing up more often

    Wolverine still not being able to smoke is just the weirdest editorial flex

    I get Joe Quesada has personal reasons for hating smoking, I am not exactly a fan either for similar reasonsz but declaring NO MARVEL CHARACTER CAN SMOKE EVER AGAIN just seems so unnecessary

    I think, character wise, it makes sense for Logan to smoke

    I also don't think thats worth showing him smoking and making kids think its cool

    Comics have not been a kids media for decades now

    There is a reason they have to specifically designate which comics are for kids

    i mean, don't have logan lighting up in the middle of the next x-men cartoon, but i don't think him smoking in one of his very violent comics/solo flicks is necessarily a thing that needs to be excised.

    Like that's going to stop kids from reading Wolverine comics

    I think it's great if they wanna show that superheroes don't smoke

    Those two things are completely disparate. I don't really like how glorified violence is in our media either but that's fuckin' EVERYWHERE and also doesn't have the same knock-on effect. Smoking as an image thing is very easily solved by the exact thing we've been seeing--making it basically non-represented as a part of heroic imagery.

    Wolverine disrespectfully blowing foul tobacco smoke into the eyes of a freshly decapitated human head

    Broke as fuck in the style of the times. Gratitude is all that can return on your generosity.

    Okay, but which X-Man vapes?

  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    The message of basically every Wolverine comic is "Logan has led a hard, painful life and you should not emulate what he does"

    My dad died of lung cancer because he smoked 3 packs a day

    I get smoking is terrible

    But I also think it is really unnecessary to issue a blanket ban to all writers and artists to prevent them from showing smoking in any comics ever forever

    I don't want Spider-Man smoking some Marbolos while he is punching Doc Ock, but getting 15 years of Logan having random bits of straw or toothpicks and just angrily throwing them to the ground is very stupid and unnecessary. Especially when he, and other characters like Thor, are able to drink like sailors every other issue and that's given the A-Okay.

    DC hasn't issued a blanket ban on smoking and you don't see fuckin Batman sitting there inhaling a pack each issue, but Constantine is still able to be a shitty gutter man who smokes because he is a trash bag who is half a step away from death and that is what he does.

    Acting like banning literally any Marvel character (including villains) from smoking is some moral victory rather than an editor arbitrarily banning something from every book in the company just because he doesn't like it is unrealistic.

    Wolverine is pretty explicitly a character that you should not be emulating

    Like, he's not being presented as the heroic standard while he's got a camel dangling from his lips or nothin'

    Side note: do we know what brand Logan smokes?
