Hey!

You guys wanna see something cool that almost no one has seen yet?

IT’S COOL.

1/

@wizkidsgames

It’s only a bigass box of CRITICAL ROLE FIGURES FROM @wizkidsgames!

LOOK! #Critters. #CriticalRoll @CriticalRole Box is huge!

Now, I am a sloooooow critter and have not made it this far in the podcast eps so I don’t know most of these, but MAN, the imagination and craftsmanship is impressive. They’re gorgeous.

Let’s look!

3/

Expert #Critters, please jump in and tell me what I’m looking at!

Here we go...

First, Monsters of Wildemount, Set One!

Sorry the pictures kinda suck, but WOW!

@matthewmercer

And here’s Monsters of Wildemount Set 2...

Again, the photos aren’t great, but these are some of the best pre-painted minis I’ve every seen. The little dragon-like thing is AWESOME.

Hey, @matthewmercer, what is the wingy guy?

This box is the FACTIONS OF WILDEMOUNT: DWENDALIAN EMPIRE set. There’s a little red-head lady with an ax I already love, all the way on the left.

This one might be my favorite of the faction packs, the sculpts and paintings are just supoib!

FACTIONS OF WILDEMOUNT: KRYN DYNASTY & XHORHAS.

I have been thinking this forever but this morning it really hit me.

@stephenking is a badass.

Just a combustion engine. Love that guy.

1/

There have been a dozen times where the thing getting me through a tough time was simply having a Stephen King novel or anthology or movie adaptation to enjoy.

2/

When I was a kid, the very first novel I ever read (I was probably a little young for it) where the cast was all female and took all roles from villain to tragic hero and everywhere in-between was Carrie. To this DAY, I still haven't read many novels that can make that claim.

Okay, I thought it'd be fun to answer a few questions that keep popping up regarding Uncanny X-Men regarding nationality.

We couldn't be happier with the response to issue one. I think people know we put our hearts into this book.

Settle in, this will take a bit. :)

1/

A LOT of people, mostly from countries our new characters come from, asked why I chose to make a superhero who came from their country specifically.

They're not being accusatory, they mostly are delighted, but they are curious as to the process.

There are a couple reasons.

2)

Here are the big two.

Let me explain. :)

I have a mutant hot take.

I hear all the time, and have thought it myself, why does the world fear and hate mutants, but love the scary-looking oddballs in, say, the Fantastic Four?

Here is a thought about that.

1/

The Fantastic Four comes to save you.

You look out, and you see standing around you;
A woman who disappears
A man on fire
A rock-like golen creature
and the ultimate stretchy body horror.

OR.

2/

You look out and see

A great-looking guy with sunglasses
A beautiful woman with a cool fire bird effect
A goddess controlling a storm
A slightly hairy Canadian.

Why are citizens afraid of THIS four, and not the others?

When I was in second grade, our teacher read us, over the course of several days, an adaptation of Cool Hand Luke.

None of us knew anything about prisons, Southern culture, road gangs, prisoner abuse, or crime in general, really. We were seven years old, and enthralled.

1/

I remember, NO ONE missed school after the first day.

It starts with Luke, played by Paul Newman in the movie, getting drunk and busting up parking meters, for no good reason, so your introduction to him, in a child’s’ view, is bad, not revolutionary.

2/

Spoilers, but Luke ends up paying a heavy price for simply not being able to go along with what he is told to do, the falsehoods he is told are true. It is inevitable, even as kids we knew there would be no happy ending.

And we know it was wrong, the escalation. As kids.

One of my favorite moments of the #DeadpoolAndWolverine World Premiere night.

The actual event was loud and flashy, the movie was bombastic. And I’m shy.

After it was over, walking back to my hotel with my beloved hubby…

1/

We saw Chris Claremont (resplendent in his pink jacket) in a quiet spot in a little park across from the huge event facade.

He took a photo, I think, and it might just be my fangirl imagination, but it seemed to me he was contemplating the spectacle and his role in it all…

2/

I didn’t want to interrupt.

So I just said hi, in passing. But he had some musings which I will treasure to have been there to hear.

And he talked a little about Hugh Jackman and the choices they made with the writing and performing of the character.

All right, so this will take a bit, but this is a thread I have wanted to do for a while.

This is it, the X-MEN: FROM THE ASHES mega-thread!

Interested in the upcoming X-books but a little overwhelmed by the new characters, creative teams, and titles?

Well, I had an idea!

1/

In this thread, I am going to give an unapologetic personal opinion about each of the upcoming titles, starting with tomorrow's X-MEN #1.

I admit up front I am biased, okay? These are MY opinions, I have not consulted with the creative or editorial teams.

2/

I have read all the issues of all these books so far. They are all creative teams I like. They are all pushing for the best books they can. And I am on a bit of an X-Men high and don't deny my OBVIOUS enthusiasm.

So bear that in mind. Get it? "Bear!"
