@grraquino @anishmoonka The IP is based on the comics. It didn’t realize itself full formed from Zeus’ head like Athena. It came from the comics. Pretending like the comics is irrelevant is pure nonsense.

@grraquino @anishmoonka Alan Moore didn’t come up with the idea out of the aether. The teams had already been in existence. The innovation was taking literary characters and making a team.

Why are you defending an ai written post so stubbornly?

[rorqualmaru @rorqualmaru]

@grraquino @anishmoonka In the end, it still doesn’t make OP right.

[rorqualmaru @rorqualmaru]

@grraquino @anishmoonka At different points in their timeline they’ve been a mix and match of members from the other x-titles. So yes born as a team but assembled as well.

[rorqualmaru @rorqualmaru]

@grraquino @anishmoonka That depends entirely on when in the timeline you’re looking at the team.

[rorqualmaru @rorqualmaru]

@grraquino @anishmoonka Even if you assume that, X-Men came out in 2000.

@Spoony47 @kirkdonkadonk @SketchesbyBoze Breadth of literacy among the population has increased but depth of literacy among the population has declined.

@D4hz4hn I’ve never been a fan of the Spectrum Lanterns. I’ve always preferred the space cop era of the GL books.

@Americanwolf76 @HumanoidHistory The entire run is available on the Internet Archive.

@4Evil_Resident2 I’m a fan of silver age dc myself. Humor, absurdity and whimsy as a way to keep the franchise alive seems to be lost art.

@monsterhunter45 GRRM gets the lion’s share of the blame but it was Robert Jordan who first burned us.

@AuthorGoodwin In Media Res is my preferred way of encountering these reveals.

@Skylinex13 Where are the quirky and weird short run titles like ‘Mazing Man, Blue Devil, Amethyst, Princess of Gemworld, Cinder & Ashe and Spanner’s Galaxy?

@Erico_kg @Movies_analyst Thanks! It wasn’t when I was looking for it previously.

[rorqualmaru @rorqualmaru]

@thinkingwest Why do movies from the seventies and eighties nail the ancients and modern attempts fail at it so badly?

[rorqualmaru @rorqualmaru]

@dancenav @AngelMD1103 Exactly. I don’t understand why some people are acting like Americans don’t absolutely go ham in a Buc-ee’s. Maybe it’s old hat for Texans but the rest of America still goes feral when they enter a Buc-ee’s.

@morgangilroy @fandompulse Isn’t the playbook to layoff the entire team after the game is released? As soon as a game hits golden master the company isn’t the same anymore.

@james_xond Proving what point? Haven’t found any responses from OP in the replies.
