Back from the hiatus: 2 memes, and what you can expect to see in this journal soon
Wow it's been a while since the last time I posted anything on Livejournal or Dreamwidth. (The last thing I posted was in April.)

However, I didn't like Hank that much in XMFC, and he's just lovable in AXM. I also had no idea Emma was that interesting until I read AXM. I hope they give her better material in the next movie. Kitty Pryde and Colossus were completely new to me, all I knew was that Kitty is Joss' favorite and was an inspiration for Buffy. And Scott was surprisingly complex in Joss' writing - I don't know what the writing is for him in other comics, but I just knew him from the movies where he's basically just some bland guy that stands in the way of Jean/Logan.
Seeing Storm for the first time in the comic, in Warren Ellis' next arc (not counting a single flashback panel in one of Joss's issue) was a shock, since she seems fierce and regal... something that Halle Berry just isn't.
These confessions from the first time Marvel comic reader must be funny. ;)
