I read a fan theory about the dragon prince that Runaans significant other might be a Sunfire Elf. It sounded reasonable and I liked it! So I changed the colors on him and decided to post them again. <3
Sub-Mariner #52 (Friedrich/Everett, Aug 1972). Bill Everett’s art evokes Namor’s WW2 era, and the return of his old flame Betty underscores this nostalgia. But recent X-Men foe Sunfire brings about a truly disastrous ending, the likes of which I doubt would’ve been permitted in the ‘40s.
Sub-Mariner #54 (Everett, Oct 1972). The throwback feel of this book is surreal, when compared to the horror or crime titles it shares rack space with.
I was convinced when first saw this cover that it was done by Alex Ross, but apparently it was actually done by Felipe Massafera. I am impressed.
I’m also super excited to see this new roster of X-men continuing to get a spotlight. The whole election process, and public-heroic role of this new team, on behalf of Krakoa, is a fantastic direction for the X-men as a whole. I cannot wait to see how this roster shifts and changes over the years.
Speaking of the X-men: Hellfire Gala, I am super excited for this mini-event! I already reposted some FANTASTIC designs for a lot of X-men, and now we got a whole bunch more! I love them all! This is already more than I could have hoped for, and still, the nerd within me kind of really wants to see designs for like every mutant on Krakoa.
Catching up on tumblr posts again and I wanted to start with the fantastic new line-up of X-men that is set to be announced during the upcoming X-men: Hellfire Gala!
Marvel had fans vote for one member, and it was revealed that Polaris was the winner. I personally voted for her, and I am so excited because I feel like Polaris was one of those characters that has gotten a really great arc yet. I kind of feel like she is always kind of side-lined or given inconsistent arcs that focus more on the drama than her character. I am ready for her to real spotlight, and I hope this is it.
In addition to Polaris, I am excited to see Synch all get full members, the return of Sunfire, and X-23 taking up the official mantle of Wolverine in an actual X-men team. I am super excited for this roster and I can’t wait to see what kind of epic adventures they embark on.
