Got to love cosplayers! Sure you have the classic icons like Batman, Superman, Avengers and always lots of Harley Quinns! At Emerald City Comicon in Seattle this weekend I was thrilled to see a first of her kind – at least I’ve never seen a cosplayer honor Agent Abigail Brand of S.W.O.R.D.
Only fitting that the green-haired female Nick Fury of outer space appear at the Emerald City Comicon. Josh Lewis of KOMONEWS.COM captured this pic of Agent Brand with her boyfriend Beast of the X-Men. Brand was created by Joss Whedon during his run of Astonishing X-Men.
“Oh My Stars and Garters!” Indeed!

After years of what might call being the class clown Bobby Drake is really getting respect but is it going to his head? Just look at Phil Noto’s cover for June’s Astonishing X-Men #63 courtesy Marvel.
Bobby has always been an omega level mutant but he just learned to push the boundaries of his ice powers. And let’s talk about Bobby’s love life. While Iceman and Kitty Pryde shared a kiss and date in Jason Aaron’s Wolverine and the X-Men Bobby received attention from Warbird in Marjorie Liu’s Astonishing X-Men. (And how cool is it that Iceman is in multiple books! Bobby will never beat Logan’s record!)

Director Bryan Singer revealed via Twitter that The Intouchables star Omar Sy has joined the cast of X-Men: Day of Future Past.
No word on Sy’s role and I’m scratching my head about which character Sy could portray! (Nimrod the Super Sentinel?)
The French actor and Peter Dinklage (who plays the villain) are the new actors joining the X-Men family. Casts of the first trilogy and X-Men: First Class will star in the film based on the classic story by Chris Claremont. (I met him this weekend at Emerald City Comicon!)

Emerald City Comicon saved the biggest and best for the grand finale! Sir Patrick Stewart was welcomed by a packed house to share memories in the final hour of the eleventh annual event. The man who played Captain Picard shared insights into his stellar career including Star Trek: The Next Generation, X-Men, Excalibur, Dune, Family Guy and Shakespeare! What a resume! We cheered and laughed and then marveled when Stewart confirmed he will be reprising his role as Professor Xavier in X-Men: Days of Future Past.
Chris Claremont penned the classic story that’s the basis for the next film. The longtime X-Men writer was among the legendary creators that inspired long lines of eager fans. I’m thrilled to share I now have Avengers Annual #10 (first appearance of future X-Man Rogue) signed by Claremont and Michael Golden!
Dirk Benedict made the crowd howl with stories from his time on Battlestar Galactica and The A-Team, Danai Gurira was spotlighted in her second panel of the weekend talking The Walking Dead and her breakthrough role as Michonne. A fan of the katana wielding zombie killer dressed up as Michonne and had two friends as zombies to recreate the iconic entrance of the character to the series.
Boom Studios, DC, Dark Horse, Image and Marvel hosted panels giving previews of upcoming stories and giving fans a chance to ask burning questions. After three days the energy starts to fade but then you see a spirited cosplayer (sometimes an entire family in costume) or get face to face with your favorite creator or star and you’re just as excited as the first moment you entered the show floor!
As we say celebrate the eleventh and biggest Emerald City Comicon yet let’s take a look Continue reading Emerald City Comicon Day Three
Kitty Pryde and Colossus on the Northwest are back! This is one of my favorite cosplay couples portraying my favorite Marvel couple. This Kitty & Colossus are always updating their cosplay. Kitty added Lockheed at the Jet City Comic Book Show and this year at Emerald City Comicon the X-woman added a space helmet! Looks like Peter Rasputin bulked up his costume too.
While I was trying to attend panels, get scoop and be an all-out fanboy Josh Lewis of KOMONEWS.COM and Seattle Pulp was like Multiple Man Continue reading Kitty Pryde & Colossus at Emerald City Comicon
A field trip to the Savage Land becomes a dangerous game for Logan and kids from the Jean Grey School as they are hunted by dinosaurs and Wolverine’s long-lost brother. Continue reading Hunting Wolverine and X-Men
Paul Cornell comes back to Marvel in a big way! Cornell and legendary artist Alan Davis launch a brand new Wolverine #1.
Logan is an X-Man, Avenger, Headmaster. For his reputation as a loner the hero may actually be a super “people” person.
How will Wolverine’s friends and allies play roles in the series
“He likes people. He’s actually a very strange creature. He chooses to keep himself grounded and involved with human beings, to be both an effectively immortal mutant with additional military implants, and this guy who likes bars and beer,” Cornell tells Marvel.com,
I think [he sees] them as fellow professionals, people who do the same job he does. “Hero” would be a difficult word for most of them. He takes responsibility, I think, and he likes the company of others who do the same, particularly Continue reading WOLVERINE and His Avenging Friends!
