It's new comic book day! But that doesn't mean we can't read some old ones, eh?

It's no JEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN, that's for sure.
Christopher Rivera

Jayden Scott

Austin Green

Hudson Hernandez

Lincoln Morgan
>X-Men, Alpha Flight and Loki
This has always been pretty random to me
Hudson Ross
...
Andrew Johnson
The Asgard wars that leads up to this series is like the best Mid 80s X-Men arc. the New Mutants shit was so good.
Benjamin Phillips
That's Claremont for ya!
Joshua Sanders
Wasn't it a plot point in Astonishing X-Men's Danger arc that the Danger Room couldn't actually kill anyone?
Carson Harris
...
Cameron Lewis
Yeah but Weeden just ignored Claremont's shit
Carson Brown
...
Adam Cox
>And given the increasing anti-mutant paranoia
Was Claremont under the impression that Sasquatch was a mutant?
Because at this point in time, his origin was Gamma radiation, which was later revealed to actually be him being posessed by one of the Great Beasts.
Ayden Stewart
Continuity is for suckers!
Austin Carter
...
Justin Evans
>All his secrets
Rogue knew he was gay long before anyone else. But unlike Teen Jean, she respected his privacy.
Wyatt Wood
...
Samuel Fisher
...
Jacob Miller
>You have no right to tamper with another's mind, regardless of the provocation!
>I on the other hand am entitled to do whatever the fuck I want. Like that time I made Scott forget about his brother, good times.
Chase Collins
...
Andrew Walker
Good ol' Chuck Xavier.
Leo Carter
GAZE INTO THE POUCH AND KNOW MADNESS
Huh, nothing happened, I just see a few white dots in a black background. Does that mean I get to be a shaman?
Austin James
...
Eli Sanders
...
John Nelson
I like what Ewing did with these guys
Ryder Sanchez
We, the Over-Monitors, are above such nonsense, my fellow user.
Jason Flores

It's step-brother you dumb printing errors

Jayden Jackson

Andrew Wilson

David Cook

Jayden Cruz
Your LARPing has gone too far, Scott!
Ayden Ward
I'm sorry, that outfit looks silly on Xavier. I'm too used to him wearing suits.
Jeremiah Taylor
...
Brandon Miller
I'm sure this would go over juuuust fine these days.
Camden Lopez
The Asgardian cosplaying is essential to any utopia
Aiden Perez
...
Lincoln Sanchez
>Dwarfism is a disease, and in your case a terrible curse
Yeah, kind of fucked up.
Why did Puck need to be a normal-sized person cursed to be a midget? Why couldn't he just have been born a dwarf?
Christian Garcia
...
Chase Gomez
OH shit. This story and the stories it spawned was the high point of X-men, before I hit the eject button on Marvel. Probably the last time I didn't regret buying Marvel's mainstream.
Bonus: this story was the first time editorial allowed that secret about j-p beaubien that John Byrne wrote in but was never allowed to talk about.
Benjamin Myers
Mental illness being cured by magic just like that would also be problematic nowadays
Justin Scott
Reminder that Madelyne was actually EVIL all along
Matthew Young
I don't know, but I agree that it's pretty dumb.
Noah Clark
...
Jacob Bell
...
Austin Gray
So she's responsible for their dumb cosplays
Austin Reed
...
Grayson Sanders
Rogue, you KNOW he's gay.
Does this qualify as sexual assault?
Nathaniel Jones
...
Adrian Flores
...
Anthony Wilson
Rachel, your mother was Jean Grey. This woman is Madelyne Pryor. Of course it isn't you.
(Obviously Rachel doesn't know about the clone thing, since Claremont hadn't thought of it yet)
Cooper Hernandez
Probably.
Nathan Diaz

So what'd you guys read today?

I fucking loved Snotgirl, and it's pretty funny it triggered so many folks.

I believe the idea was to reunite Claremont and Byrne, so X-Men + Byrne's Canadian team + magic villain.
Then Byrne didn't do it so it became a Claremont + Smith reunion instead.
Brandon Nelson
...
Hunter Robinson
I don't see anything wrong with a small person wishing he were taller. The whole idea that all differences are the same and everyone should be happy with their body is fucked up because it's about how people should be, not how they are.
I realize the irony in praising an X-Men/Alpha Flight superhero crossover for being true to life.
Jonathan Thomas
...
Owen Lopez
No no no, the problem is that they changed the reason for Puck's dwarfism.
Luis Long

Mason Smith

Cooper Brown
Oh, OK. Sorry
