It's been a month or so since we've had one of these storytimes, and with issue 8 - the end of our second story-arc - finishing today, it seemed an apt moment to do one of these storytimes, to chat and screw around. For those of you joining us for the first time, what is Full-New X-Men? It's a comedy re-write of Brian Michael Bendis's infamous run of All-New X-Men, which publishes one new page per day every day at unxannyrewrites.tumblr.com
Full-New X-Men Storytime, motherfuckers!

I should also give a shoutout to Illuminating Comics, which after a too-lengthy absence recently began putting out new pages recently. They do something quite similar to our project, but mostly with Captain Marvel comics as the source material. A big inspiration for our own efforts.

Fun fact about Illuminating Comics, by the by: I had a chance to chat for a while with the author of that blog the other day. And just as his (?) work inspired our blog, it seems like one of our earlier efforts inspired him. Some of you may have seen the notorious re-write of that one segment of Uncanny X-Men 600 with the two Icemans and Jean. Evidently that was the inspiration for his famous comic re-write "sitting," which tickled me to learn.

This joke, which came about as a result of a simple typo where my finger slipped from the "X" key to the "C" key next to it has yielded one of our most enduringly beloved jokes.

It's a good thing that Scott and company didn't lose any of their control over their powers after the whole Phoenix thing or anything or else this scene would have made no sense.
