    OMG That was the BEST shizz. The entire Magik series took place between 2 frames of a New Mutants issue. She goes in to a hole as a kid and in the next frame, her brother pulls her out of the hole as a young adult. What happened? Well they wrote a whole 4 issue mini series to explain. So dope. SO much has happened since I stopped collecting them, thanks for filling that in for me. Also can we just acknowledge the GENIUS that is Bill Sienkiewicz's New Mutants art for a minute? I mean really. Masterwork.

    I loved Magick the character. Her 4 part limited series is still one of my favorite series. When she became a member of the New Mutants, was a time of great joy for me then became a time of great sadness. The artwork in the comics went from excellent artwork of Chris Clarmont to the crap we find at 13:24 with the introduction of Magus. I tried to press on but the artwork was so bad it destroyed the story. I dropped the title because of the artwork, then a few months later I stopped collecting and reading Marvel comics all together because the artwork in most of the titles I read took a serous nose dive.

      No spoilers but they're not getting a sequel to the movie too many issues during production and the fact that they had to release it in movie theaters dorin Corona and on top of that the fact that they didn't do as much reshoots as they wanted. It made the movie average, to not just my opinion too, but to some others. there's no way that she's getting a TV series or movie anytime soon which is sad because you might say even after the fact of me watching the movie I can definitely say if all they did was simply made it so that she was like the backbone of the story and switched how they did it just a little bit, like they still could have went to the prison School at the beginning but switched it up to the point that they all got trapped inside limbo and and even staying true to doing it in a horror style way with demonic beings and sorcery for most of the movie, and then at the end still have them escaped from there just to end up back at the school to fight the evil lady at the end. They could have did this and focus on introducing the other characters at the same time.
      But that's just my opinion.

    • @williamjones3534
      @williamjones3534 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @Zahir Datoo I love how obvious normies like you try to use that excuse to justify a bad or just Meh comic book movie. The Dark Phoenix Saga was a comic book story as well and yet both normies and "comic book purist" alike hated it, both times! Fact is, this is a movie based off a comic book property.So, If you're not going to put the effort into doing it right you shouldn't do it at all. This movie was a blatant cash grab in an effort to court the YA/ twilight audience. It's not a good comic book movie or horror. It goes beyond not pleasing anyone. This movie leaves people with a roaring case of blue balls.
      Instead of turning off your mind with crap entertainment like this, do like I suggested, stimulate your mind and go read the actual "Demon Bear Saga."

      The New Mutants was my gateway into the X-Men. My favorite NM's were Magik, Mirage, Warlock, and oddly enough Cipher. I think the complex friendship between Dani and Illyana/ Warlock and Doug is was really put them in my top spots. In terms of Cipher I always felt he wasn't utilized right.

      Christopher Hoyt But I personally thought that Anya-Taylor Joy still did a great job with her performance as the character. The origins may not have been completely accurate to the comics (which they probably changed it so that it could fit into the story) but I felt Anya really embodied the character perfectly. I don’t know, it’s probably just me....

      Pretty sure it’s the ability to teleport, and the use(or need) of the discs was because her powers manifested while in Limbo.
      By her feats, and the abilities as Darkchylde, she’s beyond Omega, but always seems de-powered until it’s necessary.
