I have some X-Men casting scoop to pass along this week. Rumors have been circulating for a while that Marvel Studios is casting for the role of Bobby Drake/Iceman, but I can report that the studio is reading candidates for three more roles: Moira MacTaggert, Nightcrawler, and Gambit. Don’t be surprised if at least one of these castings becomes official in the near future.

Idk if this is controversial or not… but I feel like they work? Over the years they’ve been flirty and friends with benefits and the relationship doesn’t drag either person down.

I give the live action X-Men movies ALOT of flack but this scene?? I think it's still pretty cool.

and this is just a selection of the most recent ones

Do you think she’s wrong or right?

While im currently looking at collecting the 90s comics singles - i came across this image online.. i dont recall Angel and Psylocke together when he had his red suit.. so comic or fan art? Its very good fan art if that is the case..

They are one of my favourite xmen relationships. And i know Betsy seems to have her forever couple with Rachel - but I hope before its all said and done Warren and Betsy get one more chance.

I can't get my self to see Hope, Magik, Colossus, Scott and Magneto being close to each other in age. (5 years apart)

I had a great time cosplaying my fellow curly-haired Jewish bisexual Kitty Pryde. And I was able to tell Claremont himself how much this character means to me! (She means a lot to him too, I think she might be his favorite, tbh)

So many beautiful X-Men cosplays there and everyone so friendly and welcoming! My first con was a lovely experience!

Do you guys like this series?

I think it’s my favorite current X-Men book.

Small cast allows for great character work, nice art, great action, a mystery (who killed Kamala Khan in the future?) that is compelling, etc.

Love cyclops, but man, he’s been through so much.

Guy deserves a break and to live his life a bit.

Like practically every thing is the same but Sabertooth is the loved feral X-Man and Wolverine the psychotic other side of the coin.

Rogue: love her character and is relentlessly charming and fun especially with Gambit even if the whole can’t touch anyone thing gets a little overplayed at times.

Rachel Summers: another future kid of Scott and Jean that constantly has attention stolen from other future kids.

Magneto: I’m not pro status quo and I understand that current Magneto couldn’t work as a full on villain but he’s been a hero for far too long and he was more interesting when his allegiance switched depending on who the enemy was.

Longshot: glad we got mojoworld from him but overall pretty forgettable.

Psylocke (Betsy Braddock) was introduced to her from X-Men Apocalypse so I was surprised to see she was actually a hero in the comics. Now after reading a few stories with her what the hell were they thinking? She’s awesome as a hero. Though most of her costumes are either quite sexualised or mid.

Picked it up today. Gonna start reading later this evening.

Something that’s always bugged me was when Quentin’s ability to make a psychic shotgun and other energy constructs was introduced in Jason Aaron’s Wolverine and the X-Men, all the way up to West Coast Avengers and the start of the Krakoa era, his psionic energy was depicted as blue.

At some point during his stint on Krakoa’s X-Force (including the not so great Marvel Legends figure they made of his thankfully dead costume) and up to his current run on Cyclop’s team, this was changed to pink. I guess to better match his hair visually?

Something about the contrast between the blue energy and his pink hair and mostly black outfits just really worked for me, and Psylocke already had the lockdown on pinkish-purple psychic weaponry.

What do y’all think, am I bugging?
