Excalibur V1 2

Writer Chris Claremont

Penciler Alan Davis

Inker Paul Neary

Colorist Glynis Oliver

Letterer Tom Orzechowski

Cover Dated November 1988

Look at that cover.  At first, I wasn’t sure what Meggan was doing or where she was going but then I see Nightcrawler looking down a pipe, so that is what Meggan must be doing – searching for Kitty.

Issue opens with a young boy, Colin McKay – who will one day become . . . Kylun – which sounds like Colin; which is on purpose.  Spoilers for Excalibur 43, I guess.

Colin and Widget are goofy around in Loch Daemon, in the Highlands of Scotland, a haunted place.  Vixen’s goons (who seem to buy second rate Hydra uniforms) are chasing Colin.  Either they killed his parents or his parents are dead under different circumstances.  The goons hear Colin and Widget swifts to his portal form and sends Colin away.  This doesn’t please Vixen at all and some of these goons are going to end up dead.

Hob’s End Station of the London Underground.  The Warwolves are escaping with their “skins.”  One of them is Kitty, dressed like rachel, and she is partially phased with the Warwolf.  Warwolf, looks weird, I’m so use to thinking of them in the plural.

As they run down a tunnel, a train comes out and almost strikes someone who fell onto the tracks but Captain Britain saves her.  Rachel slows down the train.  I like how everyone likes seeing Captain Britain, Brian is a rock star in his home country.  Some citizens start running away, as they know it is now on.  Nightcrawler enters the way they are leaving, and some of them are scared of seeing him.  I like how one lady thinks he is a cutie.

Rachel is losing her mind, she wants to find Kitty but a police officer stops her.  He dares put his arm on Rachel.  Kurt can tell that she is one second away from pulling her arm away from the cop’s grip and tells her that they have to keep the police as an ally.

A ways away.  The Warwolves get back to their home and ditch their skins, including Kitty.  One of them wants them to respect their skins, even though the other argue that they can get more.  Poor Kitty, she’s in some sort of near-death phase.  The Warwolves turn their attention to her, as they are pretty sure that she isn’t Phoenix.  The one that nabbed her, they don’t have individual names – from what I can tell – does the process of tearing her soul from her body.  Rachel feels this and burns through the ceiling of the subway and seeks out Kitty.

The Warwolf sees Rachel’s costume but can’t find Kitty’s skin.  The other two Warwolves laugh at him.

Fraser’s Bank, Thameside.  Nigel is being a sleaze and is kissing a fellow co-worker, at work.  For shame!  Though I can’t complain as that’s where I found my wife but we never stayed until after-hours for any on premises shenanigans.  Nigel sees Rachel’s Phoenix Force in the sky and is mesmerized.  Courtney Ross sees it and thinks about how her life has turn upside down now that Captain Britain is back in her life.  She also comments, to herself, that she is never done with work.  The market closes in England, next opens in New York, closes there then opens in the East and the day starts over again.

Rachel comes back to Excalibur, she has a faint trace of where Kitty can be.

Kurt notices a police officer who is grinning, menacingly and decides to track him.  Kurt follows the police sergeant down a tunnel.  A train passes and Kurt loses trace of the sergeant but he hasn’t lost Kurt.  The Warwolf is waiting in shadow for Nightcrawler to walk by.

Rachel warns Captain Britain and Meggan that Kurt is in trouble.  Meggan shifts to a more wolf form and starts tracking Kurt’s scent.

Over with the Warwolves.  The one that tore Kitty, is now suffering a stomach ache.  Next, starts taking a more human female form.  She puts on Rachel’s outfit, to cover up her now womanly body.  The other Warwolf comes back now holding the sergeant’s skin and Nightcrawler’s unconscious body.  This Warwolf offers Kurt’s body to the Kitty-Wolf (WarKat?).  ShadowWolf is about to take cover Kurt’s body when Kitty’s essence backhands the other three Warwolves.  I want to say there is suppose to be five of them, right?

WarKat is growing Kitty’s hair now, still silver like their skin but the more it resembles Kitty, the more she is in charge of the body.  Kurt comes around and tries to escape but is nabbed.  Just then, Captain Britain and Meggan bust through a wall and a fight starts.

The three Excalibur members knock out the three Warwolves.  They turn to the fourth one but Kitty states that she’s running the ship.

Bullpen Bulletins.  Hypebox.  Punisher War Journal 1.  Submariner 1.  Avengers Annual 17.  Spectacular Spider-Man Annual 8.  The cool one is Wolvrine’s ongoing gets its first issue by Chris Claremont, John Buscema and Al Williamson.  Doctor Strange also got a new number one.

Rachel joins the team and Kitty has to tell them how cruel-some the Warwolves really are.  Rachel wants to kill the Warwolves but Kurt tells her that it isn’t justice but murder.  All of a sudden, human hands are pushing out of ShadowWolf’s mouth.

Excalibur V1 2 Kitty coming out of Warwolf

The first panel was used as a flashback from Nightcrawler Volume Two Issue 12, that I reviewed the other day.

Kitty pushes her way through the Warwolf’s mouth.  There are some websites that track X-Men in-canon nude appearances, that I stumbled on during my younger days, and this use to be Kitty’s only nude appearance.  I imagine she still doesn’t have any additional ones until Astonishing X-Men 21.

Kitty references how Technet’s Bodybag swallowed her in Excalibur Special Edition, so she hopes that that stops soon.

Kitty comes up with a fair punishment for the Warwolves.

The London Zoo gets a new attraction!  Which is pretty keen, in their cage, they have a television set and newspapers.

Kurt mentions how there was six Warwolves but two died, so I must be remembering that.

This comic has thirty pages, that’s pretty awesome.

Sword Strokes.  Letters are from – J.D. Naylor of Phoenix, Arizona / Hampus Pettersson of Cupertine, CA and Malcolm Bourne of Cricklewood, London, England.

Excalibur V1 2 Kitty Pryde Lockheed Davis Backcover

Great back cover by Alan Davis and Paul Neary!  Sadly, this is the only appearance Lockheed gets with the issue.

I know this makes me a horrible person, for not promoting when other comic book artists have needed help.  I’m hoping to change that, going forward.  Bob Wiacek is by far one of my favorite inkers, of all time.  He could really use some help, if you are so inclined and have the money to do so, that would be great.

I wish I was able to give $40, as a Wiack drawn Kitty Pryde piece, would be awesome or a Lockheed piece.

I didn’t know that his wife passed three years ago or that he was living with his son.  I hope him the best, as he continues to recover from his arm injury.

Thus far, 55 people have provided $3,605 of the $10,000 goal.

I’m hoping Marvel and the Heroes Initiative are able to provide him some help, as well.

Thanks and special shoutouts to Brian Michael Bendis, Sam Humprhies and Chris Sotomayor for pointing me towards the link above.  They all posted links on Tuesday night (that’s where the numbers came from).

By the time I finished this post, it went up to 73 people with $$4,385 – good job everybody!

At, 11:04am, Wednesday (my time), they reached their goal of $10,000 but I believe any additional money, will still be helpful.

Big Brother 17 – Wednesday – September 9, 2015

Who wins PoV?  Will they use the veto to take either Austin or Liz off the block?

Episode 34!

In Retro Big Brother, we decided to go ahead and watch Season Eight, we are now on episode three.  I forgot how much I really enjoyed Jessica.

From the episode picture, Jesse is coming into the house.  That guy, for a long while – like seasons – showed up once a year on this show.  He was always available.

Day 79, was the Veto Nomination Ceremony.

Liz is crying, so much.  She’s calling Austin her, boyfriend.  oh dear, then Austin calls her his girlfriend.

My wife has told me that the Veto Competition is the exact same one that MacCrae and Amanda had to do, with the throwing of the ball.  MacCrae could have given Amanda the game, but choose to win it himself.  We’ll have to see if Austin does the same or goes the hero route.

Since there are only six left, everyone plays for PoV!  Steve also mentions the trivia from Season 15!  Good thing Production has Steve!  Jesse is the host!  Mister Pec-tacular!  Austin is jealous as Liz and Julia are hot for Jesse.

Jesse picks the order, but I guess this doesn’t work the way I thought.

Liz – Julia – Vanessa – John – Steve – Austin (hey!  Steve Austin!)

Liz v Steve. Steve falls off the stage!  Liz and Julia do sort of look great in their unitards.  Each has one pin to go, at the same time.  Liz wins!  Steve and Jesse need a tv show!

Julia v Austin. Vanessa recommended, such a sweet move!  Austin is so confused, it doesn’t make any sense.  Vanessa tries to explain why it is good, to Liz but she doesn’t buy it.  Julia is hating her decision.  Austin believes he is the target.  I keep commenting on how neither Liz or Austin are going to marry each other, so they are worried for nothing.  Austin wins.

John v Liz.  John wins, on his first try!  Amazing!

Vanessa v Austin.  Austin doesn’t understand what is happening.  Austin wins, on his first try!  He was pissed off!

John v Austin, the finals!  Austin tells John that he wants the win.  John thinks that means that Austin wants to take out the twins.  Austin kills himself, and Judas is now here.  Judas tells Jesse that he is making a heel turn.  Austin will take himself down and Steve will have to put up Julia.  Austin is way heel turning!  This could be super interesting!

Liz tells Julia how wrong she was to choose Austin.  Liz isn’t remembering sisters before misters.  Judas comes into the room and rips into Julia as well.  They know that Vanessa isn’t with them.  Judas’ “in public” cracks me up.  His eyes got all big.  Julia goes to Vanessa and Vanessa tries to spin it.  Liz comes in to try to make Vanessa feel bad.  Vanessa should just own this but she is trying to piss on fire.  Put a lid on it! COME ON!  Vanessa’s crying, good grief.  Poor Steve, he goes into the bathroom (where they are) and they tell him (so fast!) “not now.”  He walks away, as he needs these social cues.

Liz confronts Austin, about how Vanessa told her that he is hiding things.  This turns into a super fight.  Oh man, we can see down Liz’s sports bra, I forgot my initial attraction to her.

Liz tells Julia and Vanessa that she can no longer trust Austin.  Liz, apparently, thought a guy who was willing to cheat on his girlfriend ON NATIONAL LIVE TELEVISION, was a guy that she could trust.

John and Steve recap what they believe is going.  oh man, Steve should put up Vanessa!

John should win HoH, great advice Steve!

If Austin takes Liz off the block and leaves himself up – that would be so dumb for him.  Austin tries to talk to Vanessa in the parlor room, but Vanessa does her fast talking and Austin loses interest.  Or maybe it is me.

Liz and Austin are talking, and I really don’t care about these two.  But this episode is all about them.  Austin ‘loves’ Liz but he isn’t going to make some sweet sacrifice for her.  Austin throws in her face, how he choose her over the girl on the outside.  He isn’t keeping his lies straight.  They have a major fight.  I do like how he tells her that he was willing to sacrifice his game for her but he clearly isn’t willing to do that, anymore.

Austin wears his Veto pendant, all day.  Julia moves his shit across the room.  It is the most I’ve liked Jiz in weeks.

I do like Liz telling Austin that she has won more HoHs than him, so she has been keeping them safe – this entire time.

The twins are sleeping in the bed.  Lis goes to talk to Austin, they are still kissing.  Did he cast a spell on her while giving her head?  My wife tells me that she is pretty sure they haven’t gotten that far.  I didn’t realize I said it aloud.

Veto Meeting!  This should be awkward.  Austin uses the Veto to safe himself, so he listen to his head.

Steve nominates . . . Julia!  He is all milly mouth about it though.  Own the moment, Steve!  I guess I rather have Liz out of the house.  Julia tells us that she rather have Liz stay in the house.

. . .

Here is a gif of Liz –

Nightcrawler Volume Two

Nightcrawler Volume Two Issue 1 – Nightcrawler V2 12

Of the twelve issues of this series, I own five of them – 1, 5, 7, 9 and 12

All of them written by Chris Claremont with Todd Nauck handling the main art duties.  Assisting him is Colorist Rachelle Rosenberg and Letterer VC’s Cory Petit (issues 1, 2, 3 & 7).

Issues 4, 5 & 6 were lettered by VC’s Joe Sabino

Claremont had a script assist from Marguerite Bennett for issue 7, the very excellent, Death of Wolverine, tie-in issue.

Issue 8, 9, 10, 11 & 12 were lettered by VC’s Travis Lanham

Pretty great that this title was able to go twelve issues while maintaining the mean creative team.  Rosenberg really made all the issues pop with her coloring choices.

Who won HoH?  Steve!  Who does he nominated?  Let’s find out!

Final Six!

So it is John – Vanessa – Steve v Austin – Liz – Julia

HoH Comp is Baseball theme.  The goal is to see all of the former houseguests, as baseball cards, and they have to figure out who is missing.  Last one to ring in, loses.

Inning One (Jason) – Steve – Julia – John – Austin.  Vanessa is out, as she didn’t use three pieces, what a moron
Inning Two (Da’Vonne) – John – Julia – Steve.  Austin is out, he was too slow
Inning Three (Jeff) – Steve – John.  Julia is out, she was too slow
Inning Four (Jace) – Steve wins!  John stopped before the final piece.

Austin makes a deal to keep Steve safe, next week, if Steve doesn’t nominate him.

Julia is clearly the funner twin.

Steve got a picture of his nephew, Harrison, who looks like a new born!

That reminds me, in Retro Big Brother, we finally got to the Neil Patrick Harris episode!

John is making fun of the twins, as they are clearly flirting with Steve in his HoH room.

Twins ask if Steve has ever been in love, he hasn’t told the gal.  Julia is getting Sigmund Freud and the tiger trainers in Vegas confused, Siegfried & Roy.  Austin’s eyes kept popping out of his head.  Luckily, John came into the room and cleared it up.

In the hammock, Liz tells Julia that Austin’s tongue skills are pretty lacking.

If I was Steve, I would nominate Liz and Austin, get rid of the couple and then the wins.

Steve really wants to talk to Austin but he and Liz are napping.  He keeps checking on them, after 20 minutes, Austin wakes up.  Steve wants to tell Austin that he is going up, so he is going back on their deal.

Steve nominates . . . Austin and Liz!  Everyone looked like they recognized which twin it was.  Liz walked away crying!  Another first for Big Brother!

Post 800!

There are times when I go on a real kick and watch a slew of SNL music videos, from originals to clever usages of proper songs.  I’m a real sucker for people singing.

Here are a few of my favorites –

Ooh Child

Thanks to WonderlandAlison for hosting this video!

So funny that Lena Dunham can’t sing along.  I had to go with a bootleg version, as the music rights were not cleared for infinity.

Paul Rudd’s Divorce Skit

Thanks to Monica Alimonti for hosting this video.  I do wish there was a higher quality, as I have to turn the volume way up, just to hear it.  The song is –

Fleetwood Mac’s I Don’t Want to Know

Thanks to mander pie for hosting a video with the lyrics!

The last of the Proper Songs is –

Josh Hutcherson’s 80s Skit, using The Outfield’s Your Love (with Jessie’s Girl at the end, by Rick Springfield)

Thanks to Toye Mason for hosting this video.  This one also has an audio problem.

Here is the song proper –

Thanks to TheOutfieldVEVO for hosting their own song.

Now for the Original Songs, all songs hosted by NBC or SNL –

The Two Back Home Ballers songs –

(Do It On) My Twin Bed

NBC

Back Home Ballers

Saturday Night Live

Keeping with the ladies, here is

Dongs All Over The World

Saturday Night Live

Now for the guys –

Boy Dance Party, the one that usually starts the marathon –

NBC

Wishing Boot is so great, with the twist at the end –

Saturday Night Live

I looked for two more songs that I hadn’t featured before but I couldn’t find two to round the list out.  Enjoy the bonus two videos!

Who goes home, Meg or Julia?  Who goes home second, as this is Double Eviction night!

In Retro Big Brother, we are on Season Seven, Episode 18.  Getting closer to where I began!  We just got our HBO Go account figured out so I doubt we are going to rewatch BB8 like we thought.  I have a year’s worth of Last Week with John Oliver to catch up on!

This is Episode 32.

Julie Chen is making a big point of things being back – John from Jury, James from the block and Double Eviction.

I already know that Julia didn’t go home, proving this house is pretty dumb.

Veto Ceremony was Day 75!  AusTwins is a weird word to have people keep saying.

At least people were talking about getting Julia out, I guess that’s something.

I do like how Vanessa knows how to talk to Steve.  I also like how John’s go to topic to have fake conversations, with Steve, is dinosaurs.

I like how Chenbot reveals the news of the double eviction, but the houseguests just accept it.  The days of shock and awe are seasons ago.

Speeches were only okay, mostly shout outs.  I do like Julia mentioning Zingbot.

The Votes –

Liz – Meg
James – Julia
Steve – Meg (so that’s who is going home, shoot!)
John – Meg
It is official, Meg is gone
Austin – Meg

Meg takes it pretty well.  Julie and Meg’s interview was pretty decent.

HoH Comp.  A Quiz, wha!?!  True or False questions.  Production is trying to keep the first six alive in our memories, which is decent as I can’t remember them, at all.  Question One – False, they all got it right.  Question Two – False, Steve and James are out.  Idiots.

Question Three – True, Austin and John are out.  Twins fucking deserve to win this game, the rest of the house are idiots.  Going to be disappointing couple of weeks.

Question Four – False, both got it right though Julia changed her mind at the last moment.  Question Five – False – both got it right.  Question Six – False, both got it right.  Question Seven – here we go, True – Liz is HoH!  Goodbye James.

Liz nominates . . . James and John, shocker!

Live Veto Comp.  Only Vanessa isn’t playing.  Each gets two rolls, around a giant boomerang.  Steve is first, first ball off the track and the second one, goes the same.  Oh Steve.  John – first goes off the track, as does the second.  Austin – gets a 6 & 9 – 15, is the one to beat.  Vanessa has to clear the balls, for some reason.  Liz – first is 15 and the second goes off the track.  Julia, first is 13 & 4 – 17, she is the new front runner.  James, come on!  First goes off the track as does the second one.  Idiots.

Julia doesn’t use the Veto.  James’ speech is pretty much his good bye speech, which does seem to be silly, to force them to make two speeches.  John wants her to use the Veto on him.

Speeches.  James wants to keep playing, for his daughter.  John would also like to stay.

The Votes –

Austin – James
Julia – James
Vanessa – James
It is official, James is out
Steve – James

See, Austin’s Angels are all the votes, with Steve, so the Scamper Squad.  John doesn’t stand a chance, sadly.  Unless Steve can play it smart. He’s the current HoH, from what I’ve been told.

Julie Chen and James have a decent interview, as well.

. . .

These were the last pictures I were able to find, before I had to stop posting them.  I figured that Meg wasn’t going to make it to the end.

Nightcrawler Volume Two Issue 12

Nightcrawler V2 12

Writer Chris Claremont

Artist Todd Nauck

Color Artist Rachelle Rosenberg

Letterer VC’s Travis Lanham

Nightcrawler V2 12 Kitty Mention A Nightcrawler V2 12 Kitty Mention B

Apparently, since issue nine, Nightcrawler has been fighting the Warwolves, with his allies – Bess, Rico and Ziggy.

Nightcrawler recalls how the Warwolves were one of the constant threats Excalibur dealt with.  One of the memories is from the instance where they tried to take over Kitty’s body.  The Warwolves main attack is that they kill a human and then they, somehow, put on that person’s skin.

The Warwolves are working for Tullamore Voge, who has captured like a hundred children.

Kurt is fighting with all of his might, this is the final issue of his second ongoing (he has had two miniseries as well) and the stakes are pretty high.  Kurt is also movitated as he is tired of losing his friends, as he has lost – Amanda Sefton, Wolverine and Jean Grey.  For some odd reason, he is still missing Jean.

Bess tells Rico and Ziggy to run and hide.  Rico realizes that they can hide but all of these other children, don’t have that option and they decide to go after Tullamore Voge, as Kurt and Bess can’t do that, as they are busy fighting the Warwolves.

Bess tells Kurt about Rico’s plan.  Kurt wishes they could help with that plan but they are barely surviving the fight with the Warwolves.

Kurt tries to get the Warwolves to fight each other, while two of them are slowly draining Bess’ life.

Over with Tullamore Voge, he sends out a goon to fight Rico but he is so mad that he makes short work of the goon.  The Bamfs teleport Tullamore Voge into a cell that is in the Blackbird.

Nightcrawler V2 12 Kitty Pryde Excalibur 2 Flashback

Poor Kurt, is out numbered and he knows Bess is losing her fight with the other Warwolves.

We get a flashback to Excalibur Volume Two Issue 2, where Kitty’s powers make it hard for the Warwolves to drain her life and wear her skin like a puppet.  Which is such a great scene to have replayed!

This gives the Warwolves pause, and Kurt starts to chain them together.  After this, Kurt rushes over to Bess’ limp body and begs for her to come back to him.  She comes around and makes out with him.

Kurt and the gang have returned the children, that they could, back to their families.  Tullamore Voge and his goons, killed some of the childrens’ family so those orphans are going to live with the X-Men.

I really like the scene with Kurt, Betsy and Rachel, as he catches them up on what has been happening.  During the panels, Bess and Kurt had a romantic getaway.  She is left him, to pursue finding her former teammates, the Crimson Pirates.

The Issue ends with Kurt, Rico, Ziggy and Rachel are one team and the Bamfs are another team, and all of them enjoy playing a game of baseball.  Oh Claremont, I do adore you.

This has been a very fun twelve issues.

Who plays in the Veto?  Will the winner use the Veto?  If so, who goes up?

In Retro Big Brother, we are on Season 7 Episode 17 – still no Neil Patrick Harris.

If CBS Access is right, this is the 575th episode of Big Brother!  I doubt they will do anything on the show to reflect that.  Season 18 will get Episode 600, pretty early in their season.

I’m not sure who I will be more upset with leaving, James or Meg.  Narrator called them, FriendMance, poor James.

Liz holding Austin’s hand, under the table, is so gross!

Day 72, the Nominations.

Vanessa talking to James, is it how fast she tries to talk, that I find so exhausting?

Meg keeps crying in the Have Not room.

Players for Veto –

Vanessa – Julia
James – Liz
Meg – Austin

Of course, they choose the other side of the house.  Of course

Vanessa keeps crying about how successful she has been, with getting people out of the house.  If it was me, I would be using that to be making my final speech.  The person sitting next to her, is going to have to say that they made lesser moves.

I thought James was doing a Batman impression (I was distracted looking up how many more seasons of Big Brother there will be, one more – guaranteed, in 2016 – Big Brother 18).  But my wife told me he was pretending to be Audrey.

I can’t believe this is Episode 31.

Poor James’ daughter, Bailey, gets her drunken origins told on national television.  Brianna is the baby mama.  She is pretty cute.

John is the Veto Host.  Veto is an old school game show.  Steve is co-host!

The comp, they have to hide Veto cards and the others will look for them.  It doesn’t sound great.

They each then get two minutes to look for the others’ cards.  Meg doesn’t find one.  Austin doesn’t find one, but wrecks the house, unnecessarily.  James doesn’t find one, but also wrecks the house.  Who is cleaning this up?  For the past few years, Production has done this, where the house gets wrecked.  Julia doesn’t find anything.  Liz also doesn’t find anything.  Vanessa finds the first Veto card!

Round 2.  Austin doesn’t find one.  Did Meg not go?  Liz didn’t find one.  James is just messing up the house.  Julia finds a Veto card!

Round 3.  Liz doesn’t like the house being such a mess, she has OCD.  She doesn’t find a card.  Meg finds a Veto card!  I honestly can’t remember who is finding which cards.

Round 4.  Vanessa doesn’t find a second one.  Austin doesn’t find one.  James tries to cover his card, so his isn’t found.  Austin’s isn’t either.  James does find another one.

Round 5.  Julia doesn’t find one.  Austin doesn’t find one.  James doesn’t either.  Vanessa is close to finding James, in the living room.  She did it!  So Austin wins Veto.

Vanessa – Eliminates Liz
Julia – Eliminates Vanessa
Meg – Eliminates Julia
James – Eliminates Meg
Vanessa – Eliminates Austin

John hosts while Steve does the physical work

Due to the edit, it looked like she found James’ Veto Card.  Will James used the Veto to take off Meg?

Vanessa has to figure out who she can sit next to Meg, as anyone is a bigger threat.

James is gearing up to talk to Vanessa.

Vanessa wants to put up Julia, but AusTwins want John put up.

James tries to talk to Vanessa, but she gets super offended, so quickly.  oooof

Veto Meeting.  James uses Veto on himself.  Vanessa nominates . . . Julia, this could get interesting!  The house needs to get Julia out of there!  That’s the smartest move there is!
