In which we actually kind of like a Sabretooth story; we’re not asking for viscera, here; all pants on Earth-616 are tearaway pants; we’d like to see more Wolverine stories about bodily autonomy; Gambit’s hallucinations have hallucinations; and there are probably too many X-books.

  • Hydro-Man’s secret weakness
  • 411
  • ‘90s fashion

  • Forge’s neutralizer gun
  • Costume injuries
  • Color symbolism? Kinda? I guess?

  • Saberine & Wolvertooth
  • Warren Kenneth Worthington III vs. shirts
  • How to dress for Earth-616
  • Hot buttered whatever
  • Boob foliage
