An X-Team conceived of to match a prompt from X of Words!

Cerebra returns to the past to lead a timeline saving team consisting of Dr Cecelia Reyes, Khora of the Burning Heart, Jubilee, Xorn and Domino!

Always fun trying to creat these teams from drawings I’ve done.

Would you rather entrust Cecelia Reyes or Night Nurse with your life?

Dr. Cecilia Reyes. She’s a very qualified trauma surgeon AND she was smart enough not to become a superhero.

Plus, if she’s good enough for horrifyingly over muscular Daredevil...

[unworthingtons]

im so upset we’ll never get a team with Dr. Nemesis, Forge, Beast, Cecelia Reyes and Kavita Rao. Like four scientists and a doctor on a super hero team? do you understand how Funny that would be.

Undeath of Author

Finally made it to the second Chris Claremont run on X-Men, and wow it is really bad.   My opinion of Claremont is kind of complicated.   The short version is that I think he’s vastly overrated.   The long version is that I can’t deny that the first seventy-odd issues of his X-Men run were great stuff, but then his run entered into a long decline.   Fans were upset when he left Marvel in 1991, but by that point he had long overstayed his welcome.    Throughout the 1990′s, X-Men fans all seemed to agree that everything got worse when Claremont left the X-Men franchise, and the only way to fix it was to bring him back.   And then he did come back, and yeesh. 

I can’t really explain my gripe with Claremont’s writing style.  People say he’s too wordy, especially for comic books, but I don’t think that quite covers it.   I’ll try to articulate what I mean by talking about X-Men v.2 #102.

In the above panels, a former X-Man (and one of my favorites), Dr. Cecelia Reyes, is trying to defend a fallen comrade against impossible odds.  Reyes never wanted to be a superhero, and her tenure with the team was so short that she’s a complete novice at combat.  Desperate, she injects herself with a drug called “Rave”, which I guess is some sort of performance enhancer.   I’m imagining it’s like that Red Eye drug in Cowboy Bebop, but Claremont hastily introduced it in the previous issue.   So it’s a pretty crazy situation.   To Claremont’s credit, the premise is sound storytelling. 

But the scripting is all over the place.   Reyes is supposed to be tripping balls while fighting a superhuman death-squad, but Claremont has her doing an internal monologue about gun violence, drug use, and the moral dilemma of her predicament.   And she’s so damn calm and collected about her thoughts.  She says the drug is driving her wild, even while she resists the urge to use her powers to kill.  It just doesn’t add up.   You’d expect her thoughts to be more erratic and incoherent, but instead she reads like she’s writing an editorial. 

Worse, all the other characters pretty much talk the same way.    They either use bone dry humor, or they coolly analyze every situation they’re in.   After a while it just feels like one person talking to himself for twenty-two pages. 

What bugged me back then was how devoted fans were to this guy, even when he was laying eggs like this.   Yeah, Claremont laid the groundwork for a lot of X-Men lore, but I hate the idea that he’s the only guy qualified to write the characters.   This is sort of how I felt when Akira Toriyama spearheaded this Dragon Ball revival in the 2010′s.    Oh, it’s been all right, but it was never guaranteed to be perfect just because his name was attached to it.  Zamasu was a crappy villain no matter whose name is in the credits.    It’s the same problem I had with people trying to use Toriyama to legitimize DBGT.   “Well, he’s in the credits, so that means he tacitly approved of everything that went on in the show.”  Look if you like GT, great, but don’t point to Toriyama’s name like it’s mathematical proof that the show was good and/or canon. 

This is why I find it so gratifying to see J.K. Rowling get dragged by her own fans these days.   Time was when everyone acted like she invented books or something, and now she’s some lady trying to retroactively diversify her books on Twitter.   Everyone’s got feet of clay, and I think we’re better off accepting that up front and managing our expectations, instead of setting ourselves up for disappointment later. 

#when i was younger i used to fantasize about being a famous and well respected author #now i sort of imagine how cool it would be to *have been* a well respected author #only for my audience to turn on me at some point #like george lucas seemed kind of bummed out about someone else doing star wars without him #but i think that'd be pretty awesome #not just being the guy who made star wars #but being the guy who made everyone sick of star wars #then turning it over to someone else and seeing what they do with it #anyway i was sort of toying with the idea of picking up claremont's run on x-treme x-men #since i was already planning to read his runs on the other x-men books before and after this #but now i'm thinking naaaaahhhh #honestly the worst of it is when claremont writes kitty pryde #i dislike kitty in general but when claremont's at the helm... woof

My X-Men Setup

Spent some time today thinking about what I would do if I were in charge of the X-Men line. I present it here for your evaluation:

Jean Grey, the Phoenix, is the Headmistress of the Xavier Academy for Gifted Youth, presiding over an industrious staff of both mutant and human educators. Academy X: Kitty Pryde - Combat/Computer Science Dr. Cecelia Reyes - Biology Stevie Hunter - Dance/Drama Peter Parker - Chemistry/Mathematics Danger - Power Regulation/Combat Dr. Nemesis - History/Physics Quentin Quire - ELA/Social Studies The X-Men also operate out of the school, divided into two teams. Gold Team (The Strike Force) is led by Phoenix's wife, Ororo Munroe, also known as Storm. This team battles foes and defends mankind from all attackers, mutant, human or otherwise. Uncanny X-Men: Storm Gambit Magik Jubilee Wolverine (Laura Kinney) Iceman Blue Team (The Rescue Squad) is led by Phoenix's parallel timeline daughter, Rachel Grey, the woman called Prestige. This team is charged with protection and rescue, saving innocents from danger, disaster and peril of all kinds. Astonishing X-Men: Prestige Elixir Blink Colossus Tempus The two teams often work in tandem when an enemy threatens the public, each trained to focus on their designated duty. Unaffiliated with the school, a radical team of mutant revolutionaries fights the battles that the X-Men cannot, rising in opposition to corruption and institutional injustice. Sometimes allies of the X-Men, sometime enemies, Scott Summers and X-Factor never rest while mutant lives are at risk. X-Factor: Cyclops Emma Frost Magneto Frenzy Bishop Hope Summers Finally, across the pond, Excalibur faces the strangest, mind-bendingest threats to the multiverse imaginable. As agents of the Captain Britain Corps, Betsy Braddock and her team keep the universe spinning by punching abstract concepts in the face. Excalibur: Captain Britain (Betsy Braddock) Meggan Nightcrawler Faiza Hussain Pete Wisdom Siryn

Dr. Cecelia Reyes shows up in Nightcrawler #1 by Chris Claremont and Todd Nauck. The last time Claremont got his hands on Dr. Reyes he made her a junkie. Let's hope he treats her better this time. And by the way Storm, Cecelia has every right to be worried about Wolverine's temper.

Go to page or paragraph 7 of your WIP, go to Line 7, and post 7 lines. Then tag 7 other writers! 

Okay, so.... I’ve got four things in progress right now.   And they’re all kind of a mess, so I’m not sure seven lines would even be consecutive. 

I’m gonna use the Bardock fic, since that’s got the strongest start, and the seven lines actually seem reasonably coherent.

"Don't listen to 'em, Toteppo," said Seripa as she patted him on the arm.   "Your cooking's fine.  Better than anything the rest of us could manage, or we'd be doing it ourselves."

By humanoid standards, a woman of Seripa's shape and features might have been considered conventionally attractive.   Like the others, she wore form-fitting armor that flattered their powerful physiques, and she had an earring on her right ear that implied a sense of aesthetics to balance her warrior's attire.   At first glance, an onlooker might have found such an aesthetic to be exotic or adventurous, but such an illusion would be shattered up close.    To meet Seripa in person was to smell the stench of dried blood in her hair, and the odor of viscera on her breath.  There was nothing mysterious or captivating about the steely gaze in her dark eyes; her expression was merely a warning to any who would dare to cross her.  

Toteppo grumbled at her compliment and made a half-hearted shrug.  

"It's not about the cooking," Toma insisted.   The others regarded him skeptically until he added: "Okay, I miss her cooking, but it's not just that.   She was good for morale."

"That's true enough," Panbukin said.  "Right about now she'd be telling us how great we did in the battle last night."

"Or going on about her brats," Seripa said.   "I wouldn't mind hearing how Raditz is doing."

"I can tell you how he's doing," Toma said.   "The little guy's eating better than we are."

I’m reluctant to post seven lines from my Caulifla/Kale story, because with any luck I aim the post the whole thing very soon, but this excerpt is mostly abour Dr. Rota, so let’s run with it.

Still, despite their miraculous reprieve, Universe 6 had still lost the game.   The team had fought hard, but they simply lacked the power to cope with their opponents.  Dr. Rota was especially frustrated, since he was eliminated from the tournament by Vegeta before he had gotten a chance to show off his true abilities.    This was what had brought him to Parnassan III.

"After we were brought back from erasure, your fellow Saiyans expressed a desire to continue training," Rota went on.    "This got me to thinking.    Perhaps the gods will hold other tournaments in the future."

"Maybe," Cabba said.   His dark eyes kept darting around, as if he were waiting for something to happen.   Rota paid no attention.    So great was Rota's love for his own voice that he cared little if anyone else heard him.  

"Naturally, you three would want to catch up to your Universe 7 counterparts," Rota said.    "That odd fellow, Son Goku, and Vegeta.    I have a score to settle with him.    Well, I don't mean to make it sound like a grudge.   More of a friendly rivalry, if you will.    Perhaps not exactly friendly.   I'd like to humiliate him, if at all possible."

"Yeah," Cabba said.  

"So I contacted the Sadala Defense Force to look you up, and they told me you were here.   I must say, this is an ideal training spot you've chosen.   No sapient life forms, plenty of open space, a wide variety of environments and climates to challenge both mind and body.   Nothing but me and three Super Saiyans.    A fine place to hone my skills."

"Uh-huh," Cabba said.  

This other thing I’ve got is an X-Men bit that probably needs a lot more work.   Mostly, it’s just dialogue that I was going to flesh out later.   But here ya go.

"Nope.    Sorry to worry you."

"No it's okay.   I'm actually kind of... Did you just apologize for something?"

"Yeah, so?"

"Well, I guess you really have changed," Cecilia said.    

"Life is change, healer," Sarah said.  "I really didn't mean to surprise you."   She pointed at one of the lengths of bone on her back.   "I didn't think dropping by during the day would be a good idea."

"I understand," Cecelia said.   "But you never asked for medical help before.    From what I can tell you heal almost as quickly as Logan."

"Relax, doc," Sarah said.   "It's just a social call.    Thought I'd be friendly like all the respectable X-Men."

Basically, I learned that Dr. Reyes never quite left the X-Men’s neighborhood, so it might be cute to have Marrow drop by her place unannounced.  But I’m not sure if I want to set this before or after Marrow got zapped by the Alan Davis Ray. 

Just as a bonus, I’ll toss in paragraphs seven and eight from Luffa #87, since they’re ominous and perhaps the only two paragraphs that don’t spoil a bunch of stuff.

As she chewed on a ration bar, she glanced up at the main viewer occasionally.   It was set to display a continuous readout on the sensor sweeps and life sign readings she had requested.   She had an hour before she would fire her pistol on the bridge again, and she hoped that she could knock out two more chapters of the novel she was working on.  

She was not alone.

I dunno who to tag for this.    Off the top of my head, I know @raxceni, @ediblenonsense, and @semercury write stuff, but I’m probably overlooking someone.    If you see this and you wanted an excuse to plug your work, this is it, effendi.
