Respect the ASTONISHING X-MEN!

This thread, as opposed to the general X-Men thread, is solely devoted to Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men. The team currently consists of Cyclops, Emma Frost, Shadowcat, Colossus, Wolverine and Beast, though the student Hisako/ "Armour" is at least temporarily working with the team on the Breakworld, so there's a few of her feats here too. I'll try to keep the feats in order of characters but please remember new issues are coming out monthly so I'll be adding those to the end.
For any of y'all not reading this title, PICK IT UP. Whedon is a f**king genius!

First up is Colossus, for some reason, like his having a load of feats in the series wink

Colossus is incredibly strong, and shows as much when he beats the crap out of Ord, an alien warrior guy who earlier defeated the entire team of X-Men:

Colossus is prophecised to destroy an entire world, which is a culture entirely based around warfare... AND he has a hilariously inappropiate sense of humour!

The penultimate member is Wolverine. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolverine_%28comics%29

Like ya didn't know who Logan was. wink

Luckily for y'all, Logan has far more limited input in Astonishing, which fills me with joy! big grin

Logan butchers some enemies:

Logan takes down Ord... kinda. This is following the scan of the Fastball Special with Colossus:

Also, she (using some kind of psychic image of Cassandra Nova) gave Wolverine the mind of a small girl and Beast become a real beast, as it were, devolving into little more than an animal:

Well, that's all for now, though the continuation of Whedon's final arc, Unstoppable, which will ultimately conclude in Giant Size Astonishing X-Men #1, will surely show MANY more feats. Please take the time to comment. big grin

More feats will come as they become available, probably when Astonishing #21 reaches England (at last)!
cool
