Look, I saw a tweet about Teddy in a crop top and it’s been living rent-free in my head for a good week. Also you can blame my wife for the galaxy print short shorts that Billy’s wearing, I love her and she’s a terrible influence
Headcanon: Billy Kaplan is a shameless clothes pilferer
(Featuring Teddy’s varsity jacket from the Last Annihilation one shot, which I read today and will be having SO MANY FEELINGS ABOUT for the foreseeable future)
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how the Young Avengers spent a lot of time as unsupervised daft teens with superpowers, and how often team training probably devolved into absolute nonsense like this
Also this is far from perfect (still getting used to the new tablet tbh) but I’m not sure I will ever draw anything better than this bit of the original sketch:
I did a redraw of a thinkfast comic I did back in 2013(?) when there where like 8 posts in the tag and one of them was me. I’ve been lurking here this whole time ehehehee
Anyway I like to think this is the first smooch where no alcohol is involved. Tommy is dealing with his feelings like a champ.
Uncanny X-men 526 B story written by Allan Heinberg.
This is a question I am still thinking about 10 years after ACC. How did Dr. Nemesis know Billy’s Jewish without knowing his real name? Was it in the Kat Farrell article? Is this just general knowledge that Daredevil is Catholic and Wiccan is Jewish in the superhero community, the superhero/superpowered community?
Man, I miss Loki and Billy together. It’s probably because I once shipped them (a long time ago, yknow, I like Teddy above all the others yadayada)
But like. I miss them. They had that we’re magic bitches that kinda loathe each other but we also like each other cuz like we’re the bad bitches that do shit and have brothers we don’t fully understand
I DON’T KNOW I JUST MISS THEM, I MISS THE YA TOO OK LEAVE ME BE I’M SOFT
So my patrons get 2 exclusive pinups this month instead of just one! I couldn’t decide between fem presenting or masc presenting Loki, so I did both! Their Young Avengers/AoA design will always be my favorite.
When I wake up in the night without you, my soul just cries out for you. I could wish for anything in any world, I could bend reality to all my whims, and when I wake up alone and scared…I only want you.
Check out this brief but hopeful interview with writer Ryan North on his upcoming YA story in the Original Sins mini out this summer. Key poits: *So while other members of the Young Avengers will be making an appearance, this story stars Marvel Boy, Hulkling and Prodigy *Hulkling’s a favorite of mine, and I’m not sure if that’s because I’ve got a soft spot for shapeshifters or because I love how he and Wiccan fit together, but the fact Wiccan’s not there on this mission – and that Prodigy is – will be part of this too. *Unlike probably a lot of the “Original Sin” adjacent stories, this one isn’t about a deep dark secret being discovered about our heroes. So that’s nice! * The Hood is the main adversary *I think the most important part of the YA is the team: the people on it and how they connect with each other. And these people like each other! They’re a team because they choose to be a team, not because they have to. I’m interested in exploring their relationships and having a good time hanging out with these people. Being a superhero is amazing (everyone should try it) – so I’m trying to make this a fun and amazing story.
“Imagine there’s a long line at the post office, so you go to use their automated machine. But the person in front of you can’t figure out how it works. They’re pressing the wrong buttons… reading the instructions out loud to themselves… hitting ‘cancel’ and starting all over again. While you know you could complete both theirtransactionand yours in under thirty seconds. That’s what every moment of every day is like for Quicksilver. It’s to his credit that he makes any effort to put up with us at all.”
I’ve always been lukewarm about Billy’s Swoopy Hair ™, but that’s only because somehow it took until today for me to realize that I could make it as curly as I hecking want to. CURLS!!!
I need some second opinions on this one. This is a random Wakandan civilian at a festival where everyone dresses up in costumes, from Marvel’s Voices: Legacy (2022) #1. Do you think this person is dressed up as Prodigy?
The X-Men suit and glasses aren’t much to go on, but I don’t know the mutant side of the marvel universe very well so I don’t know what other mutants would fit the bill here
