I also think the scene is given <i>more</i> impact by having Storm, of all people, sign off on it, without even a moment's expression of conflicted feelings. This issue was a departure from the norm in many ways, and for several X-Men.<br />Comicsfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10064955427593820783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-85900127926546160592016-04-28T20:10:14.459-04:002016-04-28T20:10:14.459-04:00Woah.

In fact, I know Wolverine wasn't as much of a flanderised irresistible force back then, but letting him off his leash is more chilling than Peter's neck-snapping. In only seeing as much as this blog post allows*, the imagination fills in the gruesome details... or at least the gruesome impression.<br /><br />*I only started with comics in the mid-nineties, myself! In fact, I'd be in my own 'quit from boredom/frustration' phase right now, if it wasn't for blogs like this showing me what I missed.Warren JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11743987856127631574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-91595528318925779792016-01-12T14:24:57.605-05:002016-01-12T14:24:57.605-05:00Colin, much the same for me.., I stopped my main c...Colin, much the same for me.., I stopped my main collecting around 1975, and except for a few issues here/there, totally stopped until around '84 due to boredom.<br /><br />Could NOT believe the uprise of X-Men during my departure. And who exactly was this 'Wolverine' guy...?<br /><br />My how things changed. :)david_bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00218727673816200051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-7452611039467418172016-01-12T08:43:23.154-05:002016-01-12T08:43:23.154-05:00I stopped reading Marvel comics circa late 1983 or...I stopped reading Marvel comics circa late 1983 or thereabouts and I didn't return till 2007 so I completely missed the whole violent and gritty period from the mid-'80s onwards - I missed plenty of other things too...Johnny Storm married Alicia who turned out to be a skrull !! Reed and Sue left the FF to join the Avengers !! Spider-Man got a new black costume - actually, I heard about that one. By the way, it's interesting that Marvel were celebrating their 25th anniversary in 1986 but in 2014 they were celebrating their 75th anniversary because apparently Marvel began in 1939 not 1961.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
