Gold Rush, General Magnetic, & Red Witch On Family Issues

ccc-54-goldrushgeneralmagneticredwitch

This one is about “Magneto” and the messed up relationship he has with his kids “Quicksilver” and “Scarlet Witch”.  It should be noted that last I heard Marvel is saying that they aren’t “Magneto’s” kids, but I’m just ignoring that as everyone else should.  Once again I think it has something to do with “Inhumans”… Yeah keep trying to make “Inhumans” happen…

That’s it for this week. Next week starts off with a new “History Of Comics With Q-boy and then new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” on Tuesday-Thursday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Ms. Majors, Proud Lion, & Drizzle On “Fresh-Men: Armageddon”

& Rumors Of Proud Lion & Drizzle Being Married

ccc-53-msmajorsproudlionanddrizzle

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!

J-Pop & Mental Assassin On “Fresh-Men: Armageddon” & Their Names (Censored)

ccc-52-j-popandmentalassassinc

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!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #50 The Minstrel On Bad Bio On The Mad Jester/ The Upcoming Movie With Her Character And Some Other Chicks

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #50

The Minstrel On Bad Bio On The Mad Jester/

The Upcoming Movie With Her Character And Some Other Chicks

ccc-50-theminstrel

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!

The Smasher, General Magnetic, & Dr. Do On The Secret Group Of Heroes (Censored)

ccc-47-smashergeneralmagneticanddrdoc

I realized that for something called “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” I’d haven’t had many of this comics with villains/criminals.  Honestly I have way fewer designs for villains than for heroes.  This is the first comic you’ve seen with my “Magneto” character, General Magnetic (comics with him have been made that I’m saving for Patreon and or book collections of these comics).  This is also the first comic with the Smasher since the launch of the comic on “hourly comic day”. You can check out that comic here https://qboyandtheninja.com/2016/02/01/the-big-ol-criminal-and-crimefighter-conversations-24-hourly-comics-jamboree-spectacular-7pm-the-smasher-on-america-man-civil-unrest/ . Dr. Do has actually been in 2 comics before.

With all that said, that’s it for this week.  Next week starts out with a new “History Of Comics With Q-boy” where Q-boy faces off again with one of his greatest foes Kill-Man.  The Tuesday-Thursday new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations”.  Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The Innovator, Headmaster Fresh, & Mr. Stretch On Rumors Of Them Having A Secret Group (Censored)

ccc-45-theinnovatorheadmasterfreshmrstretchc

This comic is about “The Illuminati” the secret group  in Marvel that made decisions at various important points in Marvel history.  The group originally was “Iron Man”, “Prof. X, “Mr. Fantastic”, “Blackbolt” of the “Inhumans”, “Namor”, and “Dr. Strange”.  Over time the group has changed a few times.  To me the group is a bad idea that went way too far as they’ve gone on to do pretty reprehensible things.  One specific thing they did that’s mentioned in the comic is “The Hulk” being sent off to space which eventually led to “Planet Hulk” and “World War Hulk”.

Tommorow Special-Girl, Muffina Winters, and Quickie discuss the network their shows are and were on. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!
