Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #53
Ms. Majors, Proud Lion, & Drizzle On “Fresh-Men: Armageddon”
& Rumors Of Proud Lion & Drizzle Being Married
Here’s the problem with every “X-men” movie, “Professor X”, “Magneto”, “Mystique”, and “Wolverine” (when he’s a major character) hog up all the spotlight so other characters suffer. Another problem is pointless changes to characters that don’t add anything. In “Apocalypse” they give “Psylocke” a weird ability she never had for no reason at all. So here’s some complaints I’ve heard about “X-men: Apocalypse”:
- Not enough action – No there’s plenty of action and more importantly it’s GOOD action.
- Mystique isn’t blue most of the time – It’s clearly established in the movie why and it makes sense. She’s blue when it makes sense for her to be blue. Sure it actually because Jennifer Lawrence doesn’t wear the make up all the time but still it does make sense.
- Psylocke doesn’t talk much – …. She’s a ninja… Granted she given no back story though.
Now on to the comic. So this is mainly about “Black Panther” and “Storm” being married (they’re not now). I always found it kinda weird. Like they’re both from Africa so they had to have run into each other? I know that “Wakanda” is suppose to be in Northeastern Africa, but I established Proud Lion’s kingdom (which I don’t have a name for yet) as being in Southern Africa because I based his costume on the look of a dark-mane lion which are more common there. Anyways tomorrow Gold Rush, General Magnetic, and Red Witch discuss family issues. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #52
J-Pop & Mental Assassin On “Fresh-Men: Armageddon” & Their Names (Censored)
With “Batman V Superman” I said stuff about how the critics are usually right. Let me preface this first by saying “RottenTomatos” score for “X-men: Apocalypse” is TWICE the score of “BvS” and the audience score is higher as well. So yeah I’m saying it, the critics are wrong on this one. It’s a good movie. Might even be the best “X-men” yet. Does it have problems? Certainly (although so does “Civil War”)? But they are problems that are part of EVERY “X-men” movie. (I’ll probably go into those specific problems later this week). If the review is “”X-men” movies don’t measure up to the best Marvel movies” then yeah. But NO movies do except “The Dark Knight” and “Deadpool”. And honestly the top 3 movies may be unbeatable. If you like “X-men” movies you’ll like this one. More important than anything “Wolverine” kills people. And it is glorious! You know that part in “X2” where he stabs that one guy and you desperately want more and they NEVER deliver! You get a nice taste here.
Moving on, this comic features the first appearance of my “Jubilee” and “Psylocke” characters. Originally I was gonna name J-Pop, Time Bomb but I thought it was kinda weak. I racked my brain for a while and finally came up with “J-Pop” which I like a lot better. Mental Assassin, isn’t a name I’m super thrilled with, but I established it somewhere else so I’m stuck with it and I can’t think of anything better. As this comic shows a glimpse of, “Psylocke’s” history is super convoluted as she was originally a British woman who switched bodies with an Asian assassin woman (and there’s a lot more). I decided to just make her a British Asian assassin from the jump. I went back and forth if she should be British and or speak with an accent. Ultimately I thought the accent made her more interesting so I went with it. I’m sure its pretty broken and inaccurate British that’s a poor mix of different regions. I actually tried to listen the “Essex” accent which is what I think Psylocke’s should be, but I couldn’t catch the specifics of it in a way you could write it.
Next time Ms. Majors, Proud Lion, and Drizzle discuss “Fresh-Men: Armageddon” and rumors of a certain romance. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The Minstrel On Bad Bio On The Mad Jester/
The Upcoming Movie With Her Character And Some Other Chicks
Wow hard to believe I already posted 50 of these! The first part of this comic is about the idea dropped in “Rebirth” that the “Joker” is actually 3 people. I actually read “Rebirth #1” and it was kinda unclear as Batman said something about “he doesn’t know what that means”. Nice backdoor way to cop out. Good thing it’s there because its REALLY bad idea! Like “revealing “Wolverine’s” origin” bad! The “Joker’s” identity should always remain a mystery because anything you come up with is going to be disappointing.
Let’s talk about “Rebirth#1” for a sec. (Spoilers)
Here’s the thing, the comic actually tries and it at least seems to be coming at things from the right place, but kinda like with “The Flash” finale I talked about yesterday it tries to “have it’s cake and eat it too”. So Wally West is back, but they want to keep the black Wally West they made up too. I get that they don’t want to piss anyone off, but now they’re saying this one family has 2 guys named Wally West in it that are BOTH speedsters! Get the hell outta here! Honestly what DC really should do is just admit that the new 52 was a mistake and take everything back to what it was before. Instead this comic tries to pass the buck on “Watchmen”. Yes “Watchmen” took away the “hope” and “legacy” and “love” and “sunshine” and “rainbows” and whatever else is good in the DC Universe. This is total BS. And as I said before the “Watchmen” characters should never be used. (end spoilers)
The second part is about this female-led movie that “Harley Quinn” is suppose to be in after “Suicide Squad”. Seems WAY too early to be jumping up and down about it, but okay… That’s it for this week. See ya next Tuesday-Thursday for more “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations”! Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Succubus, Red Witch, & Drizzle On The Possibility Of
The Revenge Squad & The Fresh-Men Being In The Same Movie (Censored)
Supposedly Marvel has been talking with Fox possibly about an “Avengers VS X-men” movie. If Fox and Marvel make a deal DC REALLY has no hope being escaping being number 2. Could we actually get a good Fantastic Four movie? Deadpool in the MCU? Avengers with Wolverine and Spider-man?
That’s the saddest part is. Marvel has literally been winning with both hands tied behind it’s back. And winning by a lot. I know I’ve gone on a lot about “Batman V Superman” but people aren’t grasping how big a failure it is. DC pretty much gave you all of it’s best in one movie. Again it put the 3 most recognizable names in the world in one movie. You take the Batman and Superman logo anywhere in the world and people know what they mean. Marvel has no equivalent. The closest you could get is maybe Spider-Man, Wolverine, and Deadpool (after the movie) and you’d still probably have to add the Avengers and it still not the same.
I think the key is Marvel is still hungry. You hear the Russo brother (the directors of “Winter Soldier” and “Civil War”) talk in an interview and you know these guy aren’t taking anything for granted. They write as if they know Spiderman is going to be in the movie so that Marvel has to fight to get him. They don’t settle for less.
That’s it for this week. Next week starts with a new “History Of Comics With Q-boy” and Tuesday-Thurday we’ll have some new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations”. See ya then, and hope you enjoy!
