Yays, holidays! I've got a lot of homework to do, but who cares, I'M FREEEEEE for two weeks. *dances around*
Okay, I've been doing a lot of comic reading as of lately. First, a pretty lame arc from the Avengers, The gauntlet of infinity of something like it. Dunno, it kinda sucked. *shrug*
Then: I finally got my greedy paws on Endless Nights and alsdjfla;sj I so missed Sandman. ;__; I think my favorite of the seven stories was Dream's, because it had such beautiful art and quite a lovely story. And yes, I admit it, because I freaking missed Morpheus, okay? Delirium's story was pretty kick ass too, though, and the art was JUST what a story about Delirium was supposed to be. Death's was kinda blah, which is surprising considering that is, you know, Death o_O The other stories were okay but nothing incredible, although Destiny's was beautifully drawn. Okay, I'll shut up about this now. *cough*
I also read The Dark Phoenix Saga, and while it was actually pretty good and interesting (OMG X3 WRITERS, HOW COULD YOU HAVE DONE THE DARK PHOENIX WITHOUT SCOTT?! *stabs*), the narrative threw me off big time. It was kinda funny, though, the way they tried to explain EVERYTHING while you would go 'er, yeah, I can see the pictures and I can infere that Jean has in fact, changed her clothes, thank you very much.' *eyeroll* The ending, though, anticlimatic much? o_O But still, yeah, I liked it. (And I'd only ever met the Ultimate Verse Dazzler, and OMG I NEARLY DIED LAUGHING WHEN I SAW DAZZLER AS A DISCO QUEEN. DISCO QUEEN, PEOPLE!! Ultimate!Dazzler would so kick her ass XD)
OMG MY FINGERNAIL JUST BROKE. IT WAS LARGE AND PRETTY, DAMN IT.
Is it too noticeable that I just learned how to change font color and size? Is it? *shifty eyes

FEEL MY PAIN!!! Everytime I mention X3, that always has to work itself into the conversation, it still upsets me that much. :( I love The Dark Phoenix Saga, and the ending where Scott figures out what Jean has done is easily in my top ten comic book moments.

Heeh, welcome to Chris Claremont's style of writing! The man just loves his descriptions.

Everything he's written is like that? o_O Oh man, that must drive one nuts if reading a lot of his work in the same day...

OMG I NEARLY DIED LAUGHING WHEN I SAW DAZZLER AS A DISCO QUEEN. Is that not awesome? The hair and the outfit have me giggling everytime I reread. Have you ever seen Storm in the 80's when she went through her mohawk faze?

Haha, the little disco ball necklace! XDD Oh man, I've seen pictures of mohawk!Storm, and found them hilarious - I'd always thought pseudo-punk!Storm in the ultimate verse had been just lame writing form the writers, and seeing that it was actually kinda canon made me want to bash my head against something, tsk, tsk. *g*
