    I’ll cut this series some slack because this isn’t really meant to be ingested in seven slices.  The whole pie…

    July 26, 2011 9:16 pm I liked the DKR portion of the Legends of the Dark Knight episode, but I thought the voice acting was awful.

    That comic was just too awesome to forget. 
    July 26, 2011 9:07 pm I just realized what that website is.  Oh internets, you never cease to amaze me.
    July 26, 2011 8:57 pm @Andrew -- I'm almost 100% sure that it's Mike Zeck.  That picture is from one of the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe series.
    July 25, 2011 6:45 pm Nathan Fillion for Batman.  And Joker.
    July 22, 2011 11:09 pm I submit "The Scourge of the Underworld" storyline, wherein the mysterious villain Scourge dispatches dozens of supervillains.  Just recently available in trade.
    June 4, 2011 10:51 pm After four movies that barely adhered to the comics, people are bitching about a prequel that barely adheres to the comics?  "Isn't Banshee Irish?"  "Since when was Moira McTaggert in the CIA?" "How can Cyclops's younger brother be in this?" 

    Really, people?

    @ohcaroline - I thought it was fairly obvious in the previous films that Magneto and Mystique had a sexual relationship, so I didn't find the kiss out of character for either.  As for Charles and Erik, why is it that when two males get within arm's length of one another someone must insinuate that they are gay? 

    Other thoughts...

    With Emma Frost and Shaw's sub, the movie was dangerously close to veering into James Bond/Austin Powers silliness.  Good thing McAvoy and Fassbender had the gravitas to keep things under control.

    I love January Jones in Mad Men, but her Emma Frost had zero charisma.

    How cool would it be to have Zoe Saldana play a young Storm if this movie does well enough to get a sequel?
