  • Age of Apocalypse Event Book
    Earth-295 is a reality that was accidentally created by Legion, son of X-Men leader Professor Charles Xavier and Israeli diplomat Gabrielle Haller. Legion believed that the only way to bring peace to humans and mutants was to kill Magneto before he could incite the anti-mutant movement. He traveled back to a time when Xavier and Magneto both lived in Israel and were working at a hospital, taking the X-Men Storm, Iceman, Bishop, and Psylocke back with him. Legion tried to stab Magneto with a psi-blade, but Xavier shielded Magneto and was killed instead. By killing his own father, Legion made his own existence impossible. The M'Kraan Crystal resolved the paradox by restructuring reality. All the X-Men vanished from that reality, and a new reality came into existence. Bishop, already displaced in time, remained; but the chronal backlash fractured his mind. He wandered Earth for the next twenty years. The Rise of Apocalypse The clash of so many powerful mutants awoke the Celestially-empowered mutant Apocalypse years before he woke in the timeline of Earth-616. Apocalypse believed in natural selection, the "survival of the fittest". By his reasoning, super- powered beings deserved to run the world. When he saw such beings in action twenty years early, he set off to an early start on his campaign for world domination. Without heroes such as the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, and the Avengers, there was no one to stop him. The only opposition was Magneto, who took up Xavier's cause and brought together the X-Men.

(Long after his introduction, the character's real name was revealed to be "James Howlett.") Although originally a relatively minor character introduced in The Incredible Hulk #180-181 (October - November, 1974), the character eventually became Marvel's second-most popular character (after Spider-Man).

  • Narratives of Contamination and Mutation in Literatures of the Anthropocene Dissertation Presented in Partial
    Radiant Beings: Narratives of Contamination and Mutation in Literatures of the Anthropocene Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kristin Michelle Ferebee Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2019 Dissertation Committee Dr. Thomas S. Davis, Advisor Dr. Jared Gardner Dr. Brian McHale Dr. Rebekah Sheldon 1 Copyrighted by Kristin Michelle Ferebee 2019 2 Abstract The Anthropocene era— a term put forward to differentiate the timespan in which human activity has left a geological mark on the Earth, and which is most often now applied to what J.R. McNeill labels the post-1945 “Great Acceleration”— has seen a proliferation of narratives that center around questions of radioactive, toxic, and other bodily contamination and this contamination’s potential effects. Across literature, memoir, comics, television, and film, these narratives play out the cultural anxieties of a world that is itself increasingly figured as contaminated. In this dissertation, I read examples of these narratives as suggesting that behind these anxieties lies a more central anxiety concerning the sustainability of Western liberal humanism and its foundational human figure. Without celebrating contamination, I argue that the very concept of what it means to be “contaminated” must be rethought, as representations of the contaminated body shape and shaped by a nervous policing of what counts as “human.” To this end, I offer a strategy of posthuman/ist reading that draws on new materialist approaches from the Environmental Humanities, and mobilize this strategy to highlight the ways in which narratives of contamination from Marvel Comics to memoir are already rejecting the problematic ideology of the human and envisioning what might come next.

  • Film Review: X-Men 2 (X-Men United) Anti-Racist Religious Education
    Film review: X-Men 2 (X-Men United) Anti-racist religious education X-Men 2 (X-Men United) Review by: Luke J Blaylock What is this film about? The film is an adaptation of the X-Men story ‘God loves man kills’ in which a group of heroes and villains who were all born with special powers join forces to stop a fanatic from exterminating them. In the original X men comics, the X-Men represent Black Americans, and by the time this film was made, the X-Men stand for those marginalised and oppressed. What age group and RE topic does it link to? 11-14s, 14s-16s Discrimination, representation of religious groups in film (Nightcrawler is a Christian in both the film and comics) and erasure of religious themes when turning literature into film (the comic is more explicitly about faith interacting with discrimination). What did you love about it? The scene in question is an excellent example of how anti-racism is taught within a minority community as Mystique, a mutant whose power is to morph into other people but is naturally blue, speaks to Nightcrawler about why she chooses to remain in her true shape. Nightcrawler is a demonic looking mutant who cannot ‘pass’ as human and faces discrimination for it. He still regards discrimination as personal baggage and wishes away his identity, but Mystique explains the only worthwhile path is change. This film popularised the phrase ‘Magneto was right’ shorthand for believing human nature is inherently tribal and the oppressed groups within society have every right to violent resistance as no other method will be effective.

Upon X-Force's return to the present, they capture Mystique and argue over whether or not to kill Evan. A must buy. Conn — Thanks so much for the catch! Other than that, I feel like Wolverine is the only character that doesn't really shine through in this book. List vol. Jan 18, Eric rated it really liked it. Lastly we have Mark Brooks. I had also had some ideas of what I had heard so many good things about Remender's "Uncanny X-Force" and having read some of his other works and enjoying them, I was looking forward to reading this collection when I found it at the library. Amazon Music Stream millions of songs. More From Various. Co-stars Dr. Remender obviously knows these characters well. Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment. The team faces The Final Horsemen and suffers pestilence and plagues in graphic detail: boils and pustules rupture while Wolverine is nearly cleaved in half by an axe-wielding avatar of War. I will definitely be picking up volume 2 of this really soon. A heavy reliance on past events, clunky pacing, and questionable ret-cons were some of the lows.
