Finally caught up with the new issue and this whole
thread today (I've been pretty busy at work the last
couple weeks), and wow! I am loving this arc just as
mush as the Phoenix stuff. I'm almost too guilty to
admit that I might even be enjoying it more.
Thanks again, John! Hope all is well with you!

This particular tale seems to have triggered in some people an insurmountable need to drop "innocent" spoilers. As if they want to be able to cry SEE! I KNEW IT! when the final reveals are made.

Extremely annoying and not only with your series but with EVERYTHING!

I've still no idea where things are heading, I'm not reading anything here as anything but guesses and not really taking them on board. Maybe it's because I'm also always reading old, but new to me, Marvel comics from the past those spoilers aren't sticking. Otherwise maybe I'd get confused and start thinking of Superbman and The Fantastical Four are involved (just read What The..?! #2). Kitty-Astra is almost that weird! :^)
I did reminisce about some old black graphics tape stuff being probably now obsolete along with loads of letraset products. They'll never replace a John Byrne with software though!

Are Hannah and Abraham Altshuler pre-existing characters, or are they new?
So much has been added to Xavier's backstory (and other characters), I can't keep track of everything.
************************************************************ ***************
They're new.
======================================================
JB,
Would these new characters be considered Marvel property?

I find it very discouraging. I've already found myself facing the prospect of replacing yet another big block of pages, since key plot elements have been correctly guessed. This time I'm not going to do it, but it's most disheartening to think of those of you who will now have the ending of my story ruined for you. ====================================================== JB, Keep it moving. It's not like they'll be receiving prizes for any correct guesses.

One of the many frustrations I discovered when I first came online was chat rooms cluttered with people firing off speculations in all directions, some of which, simply on the odds, proved correct. This would be followed by cries of “so predictable!”But what was really happening was people squeaking “This is going to be RED! No, BLUE! No, GREEN! No, YELLOW!” and then a green reveal being dismissed as “predictable”.

If I start to read barely a hint of what is possibly to come, I skip the comment.

Maybe keep posting the pages on a daily basis, but do not open the discussion thread until the entire issue is posted?
Thanks for doing this project JB! Had I ever won the lottery, it would have been my dream commission. We’ve all won the lottery here.

Having been guilty of speculating on this story a few times, I'll do better in the future.

I'm trying hard to limit my speculation to the 'I think I see where it is going but know better than to assume anything' level but will fight myself harder on that (I have typed and erased stuff more than once before clicking 'post reply' and need to remember my speculation on this only matters to me so I should keep it to myself).
All I know for sure is this has been a lot of fun so far and I hope it keeps going for as long as possible. If I guess right on what happens, great, if not, even better. I strongly advise any creator (not just JB) to ignore us idiotic fanboys who guess at stuff as give us 10 minutes and we'll be on a new thought process. I think I got everything wrong for WandaVision for example but I loved guessing and loved being wrong (made it even more fun).
JB - thank you for making this and I'm sorry if any idiotic speculation I (or others) have made has hurt your enjoyment of making this great piece. I look foreword to the next page and the many beyond. |

I have stopped reading anyone -other- than JB's posts first. In his posts I can determine if I want to go back to investigate the original post he is responding to. It just isn't safe otherwise.
