This looks incredibly dumb to me, but I decided to post it anyway. It’s a teaser for the X-Men: First to Last bit that will be coming out in May. Obviously it’s to support the movie X-Men: First Class, but being that that train wreck only has 1 out of the 5 original First Class Members I don’t quite get how this is related. Thoughts?
Whilst shopping for candles, the Rogues came upon a “Fireside” candle. We immediately decided it smelled like Gambit. How do we know that you ask – Don’t ask, just let it happen. This led us to discuss what we think the X-Men would smell like. Below are some of our thoughts…. what do you think your favorite comic book characters would smell like?
Professor X – Mothballs and Wig Glue
Cyclops – Axe and a Fraternity House
Jean Grey – Plain-as-can-be Ivory Soap and Breck Shampoo
Wolverine – Naturally Occurring Old Spice (the man your man wants to smell like), Woods and Cigar Smoke
Storm – Outside, right before it rains
Rogue – Magnolias and Sass
Gambit – Spices, Bourbon, Cigarettes and Bad Decisions
Beast – Doggie Shampoo
Emma Frost – Better than you, that’s all you need to know, darlings
Nightcrawler – Sulfer and Brimstone
Kitty Pryde – Cucumber Melon body wash from Bath and Body Works
Jubilee – Bubblegum
Angel – Rich Mahogany and Money
Magneto – Pantene Pro-V (smell THIS, Charles)
Sabretooth – Raw Animal Hides
Toad – Flies and Stickiness
Pyro – Matches
Quicksilver – Shame and Disappointment
Scarlet Witch – PMS
Teon (one of the Five Lights) – Flea Powder and Urine
Deadpool – Gun Powder and Tacos/Chimichangas
Don’t know if you’ve all been following the Age of X reveals, but today we got our full look at the cast for Age of X and I’m kind of excited! It’ll be interesting to see how this is done… it seems AU, as some of these “new” characters seem to actually be Alternate Universe versions of real characters. For example, while Gambit is listed as Gambit and Magneto is listed as Magneto, the two added today (clearly Rogue and Jean Grey/Phoenix) are being called Reaper and Revenant. The guy in the back called Basilisk looks an awful lot like Cyclops, and so on. There isn’t a whole lot of plot detail on this yet, but since it launches on January 26, 2011, we can probably expect some soon. Thoughts?

It’s Friday so you get a two-fer! The White Queen with the Phoenix, both normal and scary Dark Phoenix. By Alvin Lee.
Thought this was an interesting one… looks more anime than Sana Takeda usually looks… thoughts? It’s Storm, Jean Grey, and Rogue. I believe it was done for something with Cartier for Vogue Nippon. Random? Ah, yes.
In honor of my X-Men themed party tonight – X-chicks by Terry Dodson.
R2 and I found this online the other day on a forum talking about how Fox desperately wants The werewolf kid from Twilight in X-Men. This is my worst nightmare. Unfortunately stupid Fox may be making it come true. Look at your own risk….
AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Although we have nothing against Michael Rosenbaum, this scares me to my very soul.
I just find this hilarious – from Uncanny X-men #504 – a scene where Emma goes into Scott’s head… only to see all the women he’s lusted after over the years. I believe this is by Terry Dodson. Good show, Cyclops, ya big tool!
