Nice tribute to Leah.
Loved every page of it. I hope that even though you’re off the monthly title, you can continue to write the FNSM Annual for Marvel, because this is my favourite issue in your run to date.
I didn’t realize at first that the back-up story in the FNSM Annual was a tribute to Leah Adezio (in fairness, I didn’t know her personally and wasn’t familiar with her work). So at first I thought it was simply a nice, touching little vignette. After I realized that this was a tribute, I got choked up (I didn’t know Leah, but I’ve lost people close to me and I can understand the emotions involved). It was a beautiful tribute to your departed friend, Peter. And Colleen Doran’s artwork suited the story to a “T.”
PAD, I really enjoyed FSNM. My enjoyment was tempered by two cliches in the story:
– The villain has had some sort of lifelong relationship/connection to the superpower he ends up acquiring–can’t someone just be doused by radiation and turn into sand without having given two cents worth of thought to sand previously?
– The villain ends up declaring that his mission in life is to destroy Spider-Man. While this is well set up, has Flint really been portrayed that way in the past? Isn’t he more of a hard luck case with a dose of actual goodness and heroism?
Okay, now it sounds like I’m being overly critical. It’s only because I love delving into villain backstories, and again, I thought this was overall exceptionally well done and a very enjoyable read.
Random observations and questions:
-Blob should really start wearing a shirt. I wonder when he stopped being suicidal, too.
-Monet continues to scare me. Will nobody rein her in before she does something really horrible…oh wait, she already did…well, before she does something else then.
-How and when did Pietro turn into such a prìçk? As user “MadroxXx” from Argentina said on comixfan.com: “I stil can´t believe that Pietro didn´t care for what would happen to Rhane. i mean they were teamates in the past, and now he doesn´t care if she die? Is he that evil now?”
-Whatever happens to the X-Cell, I hope Callisto doesn’t suffer too much. Blob neither, since he’s suffered enough.
-I wonder if Jamie can really survive the poison as he says.
-What’s the deal with Abyss? Is he re-powered, using technology to simulate powers, or what?
-I liked Nicole’s reaction to Layla’s comment about the floor. 😀
-Despite myself, I have to admire Pietro promising that he wouldn’t do anything to stop Rictor from leaving while having all the X-Cell people waiting outside the door ready to do it for him.
As for FNSM:
-Kelly Kulick’s appearance in the book is not, IMHO, gratuitous as long as her presence doesn’t interfere with the flow of the story. The question really is, why not write her into it? In this case it may have actually helped, since we may have seen something new and unique in comics. I’m referring, of course, to the first time any villain has escaped through a bowling alley’s gutter. If even this has happened before, then there truly ARE no unused ideas left.
-Very nice interaction between Peter and Betty. I’m glad his old friends are sticking by him even though he’s a wanted man.
-The way they figured out the Arrow mystery was also pretty cool.
-What was the connection between Arrow/Ero and the future Chameleon?
-In case you missed it the first time I said it, if Peter saves Flash’s ášš and Flash ever calls him “puny” again after that, he’s more of a jáçkášš than I thought. Although I suppose that either shortly or immediately after this arc finishes, somebody else will be taking care of Flash’s dialogue.
-Another thing I brought up when the issue came out, in case you missed it: I’m eager to find out how Ero’s powers work. One would guess that she is composed of a finite number of spiders, just as the Venom symbiote was finite in mass (which was how Spidey was able to defeat Venom in their first encounter: by getting Venom to shoot webline after webline and thus deplete the mass of his costume). We’ll say that’s something like 110-150 lbs of spiders. Is that enough for a geyser? Is it physically possible for any number of spiders to lift a car that high off the ground? Am I just nitpicking? Is this one of those times when a wizard interfered? http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AWizardDidIt
Oops, only now do I see that this is for comments on the FNSM Annual, not #20. Sorry. I missed the Annual. Crap. Hope I can still get it.
Greg: Someone who hasn’t thought about sand? You’d have more luck finding a virgin on the set of Doctor Who…
Well, it seems like he took sand a little more personally than most…
I dug X-Factor a lot. I don’t know about Pietro being really evil, so much as a focused, cold-hearted bášŧárd. Maybe it runs in the family? To make the world better (as he sees it), he’s done some pretty awful things to world, and pretty awful things to his family – he’s pretty much run out of lines to cross. I don’t know why we’d expect him to hold back when it doesn’t suit him at this point.
There was an interesting little exchange between Rahne and Guido about her change in personality in wolf form. Wouldn’t it be ironic if Pietro’s attack on her took away that choice to turn back human that she and Guido were worried about her not making someday.
IIRC Rahne was shifted into human form by the attack? She’s been stuck in wolf form before, but what if she’s stuck in human form now? Now that she kinda digs it less than wolf forms.
That’s a distinctive of the character though — there’s rarely a time she isn’t enduring some situation beyond her control, and where she does have freedom of choice, emotions are the major factor in her decisions, boning things up for her even worse.
I enjoyed the Friendly Annual. I even added the origin info and clarified details about Sandy’s real name and alias to his Wikipedia article (and not some šhìŧhëád vandal or two is getting into an edit war with me over it), but I didn’t quite get that last set of images. Did that kid literally see Sandy and Spidey coming out of that sand castle? I’m guessing not, but what was he running from? The incoming wave? Also, was “Leah” entirely fictional, or was the eponymous character based on someone real?
X-Factor was good too. Quicksilver is realling becoming a slime, but I can understand Rictor’s desperation. I don’t get, however, how M Day could’ve caused Blob to lose his fat. Logically, he should remained the same physically, but just not with the superhuman powers that went with his obesity, one of which might’ve been compensation for its deleterious effects on his health; With the removal of is powers, he might’ve just keeled over and died. 🙂
I don’t know about Pietro being really evil, so much as a focused, cold-hearted bášŧárd. Maybe it runs in the family?
Pietro is reminding me more and more of his father. All the self-righteousness and that kind of stuff… Quicksilver certainly seems to be following in his father’s footsteps. 🙂
“but I didn’t quite get that last set of images. Did that kid literally see Sandy and Spidey coming out of that sand castle?”
Well, yeah. The sand castle was Sandman reconstituting himself. The kid saw the tiny images of Spidey and Sandman, and then the image of Sandman came to life, looked up at the kid and grinned, which was enough to send the alarmed kid running away.

She’s been stuck in wolf form before, but what if she’s stuck in human form now?
After the amount of anguish that vision of the future has caused her, the one where it looks as if she’s killed Jamie and Layla, she’d probably be glad to be stuck in human form. In the vision, she was in wolf form.

Logically, he should remained the same physically, but just not with the superhuman powers that went with his obesity, one of which might’ve been compensation for its deleterious effects on his health; With the removal of is powers, he might’ve just keeled over and died. 🙂
There have been other mutants who changed physically in addition to losing their powers. Beak, for example. I’ve also been told, by somebody else who read the stories the depowered Blob previously appeared in, that he said even though he failed to kill himself, the high amount of cholesterol in his body would kill him anyway sooner or later, or something like that.
X-Factor 19:
As a Marrow fan alone this was already a great issue. Since its already one year since her last apearance.
Now i just hope that nothing to horrorbil will happen to her. I fear the worst.
But there is one thing i still wonder. Marrow promised to protect the Morlocks till the bitter end in Generation M. Yet she is suddently with X-Cell in this title and the Morlocks run amok in Uncanny X-men.
What happend? Anothe unexplained event (like during the six month gap)?
Anyway great issue. The only thing i have to complain about is how Blob who was awake got captured but Marrow and Fatale who where knocked out managed to escape.
Rahne will make it i know that. But the question remains how much it will affect her (as if she doesn’t has enough problems).
X-cell is an intresting villian group which has a thrown together feeling, however it also pretty much hints towards that what Layla told the X-factor crew last issue.
I am looking forward to see how this arc concludes.
PS: Blob needs a shirt thats for sure.
Peter David: Well, yeah. The sand castle was Sandman reconstituting himself. The kid saw the tiny images of Spidey and Sandman…
Luigi Novi: See, that’s where I’m lost. Sandy can be tiny because he’s a shapeshifter. How/why was Spidey tiny? That had me confused.
Thanks for clarifying. 🙂
“Luigi Novi: See, that’s where I’m lost. Sandy can be tiny because he’s a shapeshifter. How/why was Spidey tiny? That had me confused.”
He wasn’t, obviously. He was simply an image that Sandman sculpted, same as he sculpted the castle.

OFF TOPIC: My wife and I were watching the Star Trek 40th Anniversary special done by our Canadian ‘Space’ channel this evening based on the convention last year. When you (PAD) showed up, I mentioned that you were the guy who wrote the Star Trek books I like and the ‘Apropos’ books my wife and I enjoyed while we were on vacation. She said that for such a talented man, you looked like a regular guy, “like someone you’d bump into at a bowling alley”. I laughed so hard I couldn’t breathe.

Yeah. I for one am really eager to see Rahne happy again for a season. She hasn’t been happy since, when, Excalibur?
I just read you CBG article on interacting with fans during the early days of the internet.
I just want to say;
“Shut your festering gob you tit! Your type makes me puke! You vacuous toffee-nosed malodorous pervert!”

This is slightly off-topic, but I just got the current issue of Fallen Angel today. It’s difficult to describe how good it feels to get it on time.
Mr. David, I noticed that the store also had at least one copy going up on the shelf. It’s not much but it’s one more than has been going up on the shelf for the better part of a year. Thought you’d like to know. I’ll reserve all but one (cryptic) comment about the actual contents fo the issue until you establish a thread for that purpose. The one comment: I can definitely agree with that last line.
You made one of Leah’s best friends cry, ( in a good way). Me too. Kudos.
Interesting look at the background of Flint Marko from a psychological bent.
The tribute to Leah was touching and beautiful. I’ve never been teary eyed reading a comic before, but that wa absolutly beautifil.
The origin of the sandman was typical supervillain origin itself, but i loved reading it from sandman’s perspective.

I got my August previews and under fnsm it said end of an era as you and Nauck complete your run. Are you leaving FNSM? or just Nauck?

Joe V., both Peter and Todd are leaving the book. Editor’s decision. The new editor wants new blood.
Please, Peter (and Marvel editors) recover Pietro from the path that he seems traveling. Pure evil is just unfathomable for him.
You have made such a great work with him in the past that seeing him headed towards monstrosity by your hand is just too painfull. I, like my neighboord from Argentina, just can’t comprehend it.
Here is hoping that Layla -he so-called archnemesis- turns out to be the real monster and Pietro sees the light.
It has been a dark time for all us Quicksilver fans, all the five of us.
Best wishes and a desesperate prayer from Uruguay!
I have loved Peter David’s writing on X-Factor since I was a teenager many years ago–it’s still my favorite now! Totally hated when they killed Jamie, and stopped buying the book– but I’m buying it again now. What kills me is how many people are saying please put him with Terry! (forgive me if this has been debated before-first time here) Guess they didn’t read the X-Force when she asks him how he could (fight) her after all they meant to each other, and he tells her that wasn’t me, I have the memories but not the feelings. It’s like watching a movie, sorry. He clearly has never thought of her as anything more than a friend. It’s also clear that she’s still secretly hoping he’s madly in love with her. *Puke* His horror at realizing his dupe or whatever had hit the sheets with her again was cute. Personally, I think she would be great with Ric. Jamie?? Would anyone seriously want to be his girlfriend knowing he is going to be cheating on her 24/7? If you could do anything all the time, would you be tied down to one girl? If you loved them, would you put them through it? And what young guy wouldn’t have a good time with that power? It seriously gross to think about, but honest to bring it up. He already gotten married twice and had a baby, so that’s something Terry and anyone else has to consider–How many more are out there, and which marriage is valid? Plus, to whoever mentioned the Ren and Stimpy shirt, that was a classic. Amd to this day, every time I pass a jar of Clamato juice, I laugh.
