It wasn't a deleted scene. The stinger for X-Men 3 shows Xavier transferred his mind into the comatose body on Muir Island because he has no ethics. It still doesn't explain why the stinger for The Wolverine doesn't match up with DOFP though.

Anyone else see the New Warriors (2020)? With such BRILLIANT names as:

Screentime! A meme-obsessed teen exposed to an "experimental internet gas"!

Trailblazer! An obese kid with a pocket dimension backpack!

SafeSpace! 'Cause they make big pink forcefields, get it?? And they're the twin sibling of Snowflake!

B-Negative! An edgy faux-hawk version of Morbius!

Snowflake! They throw snowflake shaped shuriken, so like a crappier Iceman! Also are creepily close to their twin sibling SafeSpace, like "Ultimate Pietro and Wanda" close...

Seriously Marvel, you did good with diversity with Ms. Marvel! I love Kamala! Why are you pooping the bed now??

He's also REALLY GOOD, so I couldn't NOT share it here. It actually scales better than most of the Caps we've received, with better articulation than them as well. The likeness of Chris Evans is spot on, and the head even works with Legends figures.

Ohhhhh man. I have this guy on order and I can't believe how stellar it looks all around. The packaging is awesome and his scale is on point. Now I'm extra excited to get it.

Trying to figure out the continuity of the Fox X-Men movies is an exercise in futility. They clearly didn't give a shit about logic, why should you?

Kamala is a wonderful character, and I can't wait for her Disney Plus series. But this New Warriors stuff. You...you can't be serious. SafeSpace? Snowflake? No. Just...no.

*Goes to Google*

NO. It's TRUE. All of it. TRUE. Holy shit, NO.

Seriously, I've never seen anything so fucking lame in my life. Marvel, not only does this prove that all the good superhero names are taken, but also it's not a great idea to tailor your heroes to the super-progressive Twitter crowd, which are absolutely NOT the people who EVER buy comic books. The SJW's won't care about being pandered to like this and comic book fans will be completely turned off. I predict New Warriors will be cancelled before it hits issue #10. Hell, issue #5.

Full disclosure: I'm NOT conservative or right-leaning. I'm actually liberal in my views (although I feel there's a big difference between "liberal" and "far left"). But even I think this is the lamest bullshit I've ever seen. Ugh.

Sorry, not wanting to start a political discussion in our toy thread. Carry on.

P.S. Sorry, I had to post the YouTube trailer for the New Warriors comics. 1.9K likes compared to 45K lislikes, lol. And the writer is exactly the sort of guy you'd expect to pen a comic like this. He even says that the original New Warriors comic was "too cool" for him and that he was "intimidated" by characters like Night Trasher. IT'S HILARIOUS.

I was literally just thinking this same exact thing this morning, and I agree with you 100%. After the shitstorm that was the Wolverine Origins movie, I felt that The Wolverine bounced back with the quality...until the dumb Silver Samurai robot suit showed up. And it's not that the Silver Samurai robot looked lame - it was actually fairly cool-looking - but represented the entire story of the movie shitting the bed. The most predictable plot "twist" ever happens when it's revealed that the old guy is still alive (who didn't see THAT coming), but worse: suddenly, Adamantium is no longer indestructible, but can actually be CUT LIKE BUTTER BY A HOT SWORD. Wolverine has his metal claws chopped off but grows his bone claws back, but that's okay...they'll Adamantium again without any explanation in Days of Future Past!

I dunno. Dumb shit like that just really bugs me.

All this shit, too. Yeah. On the surface The Wolverine is a solid movie but if you think about it for even a second there's SO much stupid.

A Ryan Reynolds Deadpool, too. Very strange. But we're living in good times, my friend.

Its going to be a comic version packed with modern Rogue, and Im going to buy it.

Exactly. I mean, they're going to make a kid with a lighter and thumbs cut out of his long-sleeve t-shirt? Nope, it'll be the comic versions of Pyro and Rogue with the green outfit.

This is what happens when middle-aged white dudes try to write hep young kids and be true to the cultural zeitgeist. I mean, is this really any different than Hypno-Hustler? Or DC’s Ghetto-Blaster? That said, yikes these are bad. I almost don’t believe they’re real.

Edit: Jesus. They are.

Wow.

I really thought you were being a troll and making fun of the characters by giving them stupid names. I apologize for jumping to that conclusion. The actual characters are even worse than your brief description and those are the real names.

This stuff is worse than all that "cool" rap that they were doing in the 90's to try to reach kids. Last time I checked, kids hate this kind of stuff.

Is Marvel trolling people? This can't be real, can it?

At least its a new team and not rehashing the same old characters. Do i think they look interesting.....only in a massive train wreck kinda way. I have zero interest in the new team bur i also had zero interest in the original team. I get people may not be into it but this is what marvel ( and comics in general ) needs. Instead of ruining and bastardizing long established characters (iceman, shatterstar, ms marvel) they create new ones.

These characters are meant for a newer readers and newer generations. If the book tanks it tanks but at least they are trying to make something new.....which i applaud.

Dolemite 03-19-2020 08:51 AM

I love how this New Warriors shit is so bad that we're all just immediately assuming that they're parody characters, lol.

Please, if I was gonna be a troll, I'd at least put in more creativity than Marvel did ;) But yeah, as others have said, this is what happens when you get out of touch guys to write "hip" characters, and to take insults and wear them like a badge of honor? That'd be like an Asian or Hispanic person using a racial slur as a codename :rolleyes:

It's before my time, but apparently Green Lantern had an Eskimo sidekick called - I shit you not - "Pieface."

Like Egg Fu?

This has to be one of the worst comic villains ever. Even without the racism, it's still just a giant egg.

TheBlueMarvel 03-19-2020 09:53 AM

The last two posts are comedy gold...thanks, for giving me some entertainment while working from home. Be well and make safe choices everyone.

Boy Blunder 03-19-2020 10:09 AM

My own two cents, based on what I've seen of the "Incoming!" story and the "Outlawed" event in general, is that the new characters' names are indeed a bit of an in-universe joke, since it seems that, despite appearances, the New Warriors are, effectively, "selling out" and trying to be more government/public-approved, as opposed to the Champions. And one way of doing that is by having "young, hip" characters on their team that are "reclaiming" terms of derision or somesuch.

Really, their whole story seems to be trying to get people to forget about their direct involvement in Civil War by being on the "right" side of the debate this time. By effectively crapping on all the good that the Champions have done and what they represent.

jwyss234 03-19-2020 10:38 AM

I found the Deadly Origin White Widow at Target today but was street dated at the register. Fortunately my MCU White Widow is out for delivery from Pulse.

Veronica Mars 03-19-2020 10:50 AM

Anyone who knows me, knows how much I love The New Warriors and it makes me sad that this is what we're getting

Spyne98 03-19-2020 11:50 AM

I saw that New Warriors announcement yesterday and I thought it was a joke. Some of those names...that's something else. I'm all for new characters, but what were they smoking with these?

Dolemite 03-19-2020 12:23 PM

I'm creating a new character called "Micro-Aggression." His power is that he shrinks when made fun of and runs up his opponent's butthole.

"Amelicans." "Ladar." LOL.

Ultra Seven 03-19-2020 01:16 PM

I’ve got a couple of villains for these new New Warriors: the Social Distancer! His touch brings a semi-serious illness that is only really worrisome to the elderly or those with pre-existing conditions. Influencer... he uses social media posts to convince fools to throw their money around for artificial clout! The fiend!

That's AWESOME! I picked up Spymaster for really cheap on EBay.

We need more villans!
