I went to a Bootsale today and picked up a crap-load of stuff, mostly knick-knacks and transformer books but I also found an X-men TPB.
Now as you guys may or may not know, I'm not exactly the biggest fan of the X-men. I think their stories are too long and confusing, the wiring shoddy, and the whole concept of over powered mutants annoying.
But this was the only comic there and I needed my fix, so I shelled out the Five pounds and picked it up.
Jim Lee and Chris Claremont are a weird bunch, let me tell you. Their stories are chocked full of cheesecake and nudity (tasteful, but still of the Panky variety) , I was bemused by a walking Xavier (Must be the 7th time...) until he suddenly mind rapes Glaiator and his curvy Psi-girlfriend , then he makes Glads tear out tight-armour and blatant cleavage's (Sorry, 'Deathbird'😉 wings.
Gambit randomly flirts with several women (including Jubes, whom I'm pretty sure is around 14-15 in this time line....), then all shit breaks lose after Wolvie guts Evil!Xavier. Some chick in stockings and heels teleports everyone away and crazy shit happens, it later turns out that Evil!Xavier and a crap-load of side-characters are skrulls and they need to attach everyone to their evil clone-making web machine butt naked.
At the same time we have a side story of Mags and Rouge getting *****-slapped by a rip-off in the Savage land, accompanied by excessive Liefeld belts, even MORE nudity (apparently power transference requires everyone to be naked), MORE cheesecake (all these tactical suits and body-armour have the resiliency of a soap bubble) and Magneto being a prodigious bad-ass.
The mans f*cking NAKED , has had his powers drained , his mind effectively raped and has been tortured for quite a while and then kills the walking t*ts whom attempted to rip off his shtick.
Oh and Ka-zar cameo's
