@Phantom Rider  
the charles scene made me well-up but that last scene with logon got me man.

@angrybrony  
X-23 actress was crying for real, too.

@angrybrony  
I hear good things, so did they do a good job setting up his replacement?

@Thanotos Omega  
Takes place in the future, so x-23 won’t be replacing Wolvie in present day stories or anything. If Hugh is really done, Wolverine might be out of them.

@angrybrony
 
Let me guess: they both die?

@Phantom Rider  
the plan last i heard was to basically soft reboot the series around 23, since they need a Wolverine expy and Jackman seems to really want to put the roll behind him since it’s to much work and the movies are to many misses for the hits,

@Thanotos Omega  
They just soft-rebooted with Days of Future Past. They could just… let non-Wolverine people take center stage, maybe?

@Thanotos Omega  
well she’s like not even 15 yet so they’re going to need a timeskip to make that work, if they are going to do more future stuff i’m really hoping they use mister sinister or something like that.
 
@Phantom Rider  
pffft HA! like that’ll happen. actully deadpool might be good.

james gunn has said he’s already finished the first draft of Guardians volume 3

so who should take over writing Moon Knight next?

Jason Aaron resent run on Doctor Strange did a good job of explaining how magic works in the marvel comic universe

anyone know of the article saying archie actually beat 90s image comics in terms of fanservice?  

@OptimusPrimevil  
hard to believe adam hughes now writes & draws these 2 girls ongoing

@Background Pony #6799  
only saw the last issue.
 
how typical AH was it?

@OptimusPrimevil  
probably average at best the comic keeps getting delays issue #1 was almost year ago & issue #3 barely came out few weeks ago

@Phantom Rider  
They don’t sell tickets,
 
 
@angrybrony  
The actress’s youth was part of why they picked her, they want someone who can work the role for years, and since allot of folks say she held her own with who her costars are it would be dumb to waste time on the rest when they have her there to make badass action movies, i mean they finally got a second actually really good movie after first class, they aren’t going to throw that away like they did there,

Good lord, Joss Whedon wrote an unproduced script of Wonder Woman, and WOW, is it bad.
 
These are just the highlights.
 
I actually like Whedon most of the time and think a lot of his faults are exaggerated (they certainly exist, but he’s not THAT bad usually), but… DAMN, what the hell happened to him?

@Jarkes  
I love think this script was from a few years ago, in fairness.
 
I like how she censored Whedon though ahaha.

@Jarkes  
so whedon better with teams then solo acts now?

@Jarkes  
Fingers crossed for Batgirl.

@Jarkes  
What faults are they?

@ice1517
 
A little TOO much “witty banter” (he’s good at it, certainly, but not EVERYONE needs to snark about everything), often writing the same type of female characters over and over (though, again, I think this is exaggerated and some folks tend to misinterpret certain aspects of the characters), and a few other things.

@Jarkes  

 
Joss Whedon is one of the best writers. He has a natural gift when it comes to writing. Everyone has a stinker in them.

So is it true that Scarecrow is immune to his own fear gas?

@Holofan4life
 
He’s the quintessential example of the phrase “hit-and-miss”. When something he writes is good, it’s AMAZING. When something he writes is bad, it’s TERRIBLE. And there’s not really much of a middle ground between the two.
