X-Men 6 talk:

I think Charles and Mags already got Destiny resurrected somewhere, but she didn't resurrect as a 90 year old.

Moira doesnt know it, and this is their way of having a leg up on Moira.

We all know Magneto can be very "ain't shyt", but Charles ain't shyt either. It's VERY easy to forget that despite how much they love their people, they are VERY MUCH villain protagonists.

At the same time, we haven't seen a Moira appearance yet. Something to think about.


I also think it's interesting how they're building/showing the system isn't gonna work. Gambit being disgruntled, too many evil mutants, mystique being mystique

We have seen Moira. Shes in the null place/hidden area of the island

Why do the humans in the Marvel universe continue to rely on Sentinels when it comes to mutants? Time after time they've proven to be worthless. :unimpressed:

:dahell: breh...

Mutants always lose and get owned by Sentinels - or technology that comes from that development/project - at some point in their history. That's the whole point of this Hickman run actually.

They continue to rely on it because it ends up working, always.

It's a shame because the book is good otherwise, good art work, good story, good villain, interesting cast lots of action.

I just can't get past the way they treat Voodoo like a joke.

The art is dope. The story and magic stuff, I don’t care about. The Thunderbolts series with Pun, Electra, Red Hulk, etc. is better, and I wasn’t a big fan of the series either.

Also Sinister and the Chimeras are gonna happen and fukk shyt up. Like there are so many options for fukkery and they are trying to do a perfect run. How do they not have a precog hidden away somewhere?

DC PRESENTS GENERATION ONE: AGE OF MYSTERIES


The Charge Towards DC’s Future Continues!

Series of Five One-Shot Comics Spotlight DC’s Super Hero Heritage, While Revealing Secrets that Will Shape its Future!


BURBANK, CA (February 13, 2020) – The path to DC’s future continues to unfold in Generation One: Age of Mysteries! On sale in May, Generation One: Age of Mysteries is the first of five oversized Prestige format one-shots, each detailing a different age in DC’s storied, super heroic legacy!

Generation One: Age of Mysteries follows DC’s Generation Zero: Gods Among Us, in stores on Free Comic Book Day 2020.

“The Generation series of specials are built to bring the new DC timeline to life,” said DC Publisher Dan DiDio. “With Generation One: Age of Mysteries and every subsequent volume we’ll be shining a spotlight on the 80-plus-year publishing history of the DC universe while charting the course for the bright future of DC’s characters. All of our greatest stories and events will create the backdrop and context for the great new adventures we have planned. Everything counts, and we guarantee there’ll be surprises along the way!”

Readers of Generation One: Age of Mysteries will witness firsthand major events from throughout the history of the DC universe as seen through the eyes of characters like Wonder Woman, Lucius Fox, Alfred Pennyworth, Green Lantern (Alan Scott), The Spectre (Jim Corrigan), Mister Terrific (Terry Sloane), and others. The series of one-shots will also expose secrets from DC’s history, such as:

  • What was the previously undocumented “big bang” of the Age of Mysteries?
  • Which character truly ushers in the dawn of Super Heroes, inspiring all the rest?
  • What was the real reason behind the Justice Society of America’s retirement?
  • Which Golden Age hero will become history’s greatest villain?
  • What contentious alliance kept the Wayne family dynasty alive after Thomas and Martha’s deaths?
  • Who are the new, never-seen-before wildcards that will be instrumental in fashioning DC’s push to the future?
These five books will have all the answers to these questions, setting up DC’s boldest storylines ever while laying the groundwork for more excitement to come. The five Generation issues will feature a who’s who of creative talent, with an overarching story by Brian Michael Bendis, Dan Jurgens, Andy Schmidt, Robert Venditti, and Joshua Williamson, illustrated by artists including Doug Mahnke, Bryan Hitch, Mikel Janín, Ivan Reis, David Marquez, and more.

Generation One: Age of Mysteries is scripted by Andy Schmidt, with lead art by Doug Mahnke. Each of DC’s Generation one-shots will feature a cover by Jim Cheung and a variant cover by Gary Frank. Generation Two: Age of the Metahuman, Generation Three: Age of Crisis, Generation Four: Age of Rebirth and Generation Five: Age of Tomorrow will follow monthly after Generation One: Age of Mysteries.

Generation One: Age of Mysteries is a 48-page, Prestige format one-shot on sale at comic book stores and participating online retailers on May 27, 2020.

Anything good out there? I've dropped everything I had been reading (the X-Books, all Spidey titles, Bats, Conan) but:

Spawn, TMNT and now I'm reading Killadelphia. I was reading Savage Avengers, but I can't ever seem to find it anymore. Last issue I have is #9.

Thor, Venom and Immortal Hulk are my favorites right not outta the ones you didn't list. If you liked the House of X/Powers of X I fukk with the main book, x-force and the marauder titles. Amazing Spider-man has been really fun since Spencer has been on it as well plus it has a great stable of artists (Ottley, Gleason).
