Haven't used him yet myself though I have fought against him in PVP a few times. Made sure to eliminate him first to avoid the bleeds. Plus my agent is in the bruiser power armor and most Wolverine's are scrappers so it just makes sense to attack him right off. I also managed to unlock Magneto today. Was at 7/8 on the covers when I finally 4 starred the last mission and got the 32 boxes which put me just over 40. Had to use the whole lot of them but got the final cover in the end.

By the way, the last two X-Men (No other words) seemed just terrible to me, it may just be the way Chamber was written there

It's been a while since I've actually enjoyed the plain X-Men series. The only thing that was saving it for me was the inclusion of Pixie as a regular member.

Rumor I just read on /co/.

Hello /co/.
Me again.
As you've probably heard by now, there's a rumor of Wolverine being killed off in the future.

I've come to confirm it as true.

Much like how Otto Octavius took up the mantle as Peter Parker (who will regain his body after a traumatizing mental battle), Draken will take up the name Wolverine.

Right now the basic idea is that upon traveling back in time he undergoes an event that will LITERALLY shut down his healing factor and his body will suffer greatly from it while everybody frantically tries to figure out how to 'turn it back on' to the point of nearly sacrificing themselves to do so.
In the end he won't make it obviously.
It's still a rough concept but that is the basic premise.

Once I hear more information on it I'll let you all know.

Apparently the guy who posted this also revealed the spoilers about Spider-Man before it was published it would be Ock that took over his body.

I'm really hoping this doesnt come to pass but I guess we will see.

I am! By far the best ultimate book. I also want to know whats up with 616 Miles Morales after that teaser ending of Spider-Men. Wonder if/when they'll ever get to revealing that.

**Vagrant** · 2013-02-19 02:23

Spider-Men 2 is coming eventually.

**Delirium** · 2013-02-19 17:28

unlocked Magneto. Was getting annoyed with duplicates when I was 7/8 for awhile. So I had 3 lockboxes left and I opened them up. first was a first aid pack 1, second was some other crap item, third was the last cover I needed. It was awesome.

I've been pleasantly surprised by Mags so far. Got him almost to level 6 now. Using him against enemies like Servo-droids and Sentinels gives you a huge benefit as none of your attacks will miss once he magnetizes them at the start of the fight.

I'm 6/8 and close to finishing the last lockbox task. I hope I get the 2 covers I need!

Probably won't be long before they release him for CP purchase anyway. Might end up being the 200 CP tag they give the other spec ops heroes though.

**KoalaTrap** · 2013-02-20 02:29

Lots of good books coming out tomorrow! Saga, Avengers, Thor, Deadpool, Revival, Cap't Marvel and America, Wonder Woman.. Yeaaaaaaa

Finally read last week's Fatale and Manhattan Projects. Both were awesome as expected. Fatale's one shots are just so much fun. I want a Fatale TV show prz.

Wait, there's going to be a Larfleeze series? I got a Christmas one-shot with him a while back and it was pretty amusing, but I doubt I'd be into a full series.

I know they have Larfleeze back up stories in Threshold so maybe it's that? Haven't heard anything on an actual series for him but I could have easily missed it.

JLA was so lackluster, I don't get how people are giving it good reviews
Nova definitely felt aimed at younger audiences, I dont care about the kid even one tiny little bit
Saga was Saga
Avengers was fine did anyone else get a

Captain Marvel was enjoyable for me. I know a lot of people don't like the art, but I find it acceptably different from everything else.
Spider-Man was just an ok issue. I am looking forward to

Last issue of Happy finally came out. So I can start reading them all.
