You’re not alone, Hank. I loved the black leather the X-Men sported during Grant Morrison’s run on New X-Men, but I highly anticipated their return to yellow spandex. With some Cassaday magic, my wish was granted:
Incredible Hulk is far from perfect, but the fact that it features the Hulk tearing a squad car in half to make boxing gloves out of it, and seeing said squad car boxing gloves used on the Abomination’s face? I’d say it’s the perfectiest movie so far this year! Also, DOOM is pleased with the movie!
A few notes on the movie:
Greetings from Manila, Philippines!
Today, we’re celebrating 110 years of Philippine Independence. To commemorate this awesome anniversary, I think it’s just appropriate that I introduce to you Marvel’s first Filipino super-team, the Triumph Division, that debuted last week in Invincible Iron Man #2!
In honor of the recently concluded Astonishing X-Men run by my favorite creative team of all time, Joss Whedon and John Cassaday, I bring you a blog series called Astonishing Moments in which I’ll feature some of the most astonishing (DUH) scenes and moments of the run. There are a lot, so let’s get started. First up, a panel that established the creative team’s love for X-Men history:
In that one panel, we saw how Kitty Pryde has grown up. It was also a harbinger of the fact that Whedon and Cassaday’s run is practically Kitty-centric. And yes, one fact was clearly emphasized: PROFESSOR XAVIER IS A JERK!

This is where Baddie blogs about comics, pop culture, and other face-rocking things. Also, this is where Dr. Doom shares some of his infinite wisdom, but only when he feels generous. You will only bear witness to Doom's brilliance when Doom commands it! Your face, Baddie and Doom are rocking it!
