Fun Nighty LIVES!!!! eee!!! he smiled, he cracked jokes, played with the press, put on a show, made Warren think he's insane! all in 3 pages!

Joe Casey did it. he brought back the fun Nightcrawler... i so happy!

*dances with joy*

now, i just hope this is actually gonna stick around! the title bothers me somewhat, 'Identity Crisis' implies that he's not exactly... stable... but notice how it is in the shape of a cross? hmmm....

Kick ass! :shocked: (hehe... I like that smilie) He has a personality again! And it's even the right one!

He obviously still has issues, but he saved War's little blue butt! He took charge, he's got presence again and what a smart ass! He's got really bad hair though.:eek:

I just don't like that artist's style. I like the cover though, and the story sounds interesting.

Thanks, Bamfette!

:D


Oh... I see we have BAD WORD CENSOR! Hmmmm... I'll have to get creative... *whipping out the thesarus*

ah that's a little private joke between SW and me. i'll explain :p remember my pic of Kurt as Luke? well that was drawn after SW and i had a little discussion where we came to the startling conclusion that right now, Uncanny is mirroring Starwars with Kurt as Luke, and the Supreme Pontiff as Darth Vader - confront father = confront the Supreme Pontiff (don't worry we don't believe the SP is Kurts father... tho i am holding out for him being Stefan) ;)

Talk about a whiplash change of behavior... :? I will be buying the issue. Kurt is still showing his darker and bitter side when in privet. Interesting cover too. :naughty:

Damn I love these smilies! :P

Danke! Ah, I feel so free now. I did think "bottom" was an amusing substitute though.

Well, I would definitely be getting this issue, heck, I even looked at this little place I know, who sometimes has titles early, but no show.

:mad:

I want now. :ooh: :D :icey:

"I would think that a return to my swashbuckling recklessness might ease the tension. Is that not what you expect of me? Is that not what everyone expects of me?" Wow, if that isn't a barb in the direction of us fanboys and girls I don't know what is. :naughty: Man, I feel so flattered.
How much time does Casey have left to solve this mess anyway? I think 409 is his last? he had better tie lose ends quick...

Yeah 409 is his last.

But, well, look at the thingie, uh, whats it called again, the press release. Look at all those comments :D

Now, why would Casey do all he did before, and why would he mention it now.

Me and Jill both (we discussed it this morning, last night) think that everything will be tied up, and Casey's going out in a bang.

And thats where the theories can be Sooo much fun :lick::smirk:

Uh-huh. And WHO do you have to thank for that link? :D

As to the actual issue, I can't wait! Speaking only as a partial Kurt fan here, he seemed great. Love the fact he used the "swashbuckling" line his fans always say they want back (that's you guys, right? :D).
And seeing Warren all flustered like that was fun too. heh

LOL! Wow, I hadn't looked at it that way, but you're SO right! Go Casey! Bring it on, honey!

Oh, we evil, evil fans, too stupid to see character development when it whimpers and spouts religious platitudes at us in every book for the last two years!

I'm HAPPY to have my expected elf back. Whatever happened to the days where we could get character development in Kurt? *cough* Excalibur! *cough*

*pant, pant* 'kay, I'm better now.

in private, spanked him! COOL! I am so wanting to have the ish in my hot little hands!


DONT DIS THIS BOY! THE ELF IS A BAD DOGG!!!


If the rest of the ish is this good, than Casey has redeemed himself!

Cool previews.
I've never seen Kurt like that, and it felt amazing because I'm feeling exactly as he is, and people is shocked. I so can relate to him right now. you go, Kurt!

Easily.

Kurt Verses Vader
Warren versus Vanisher.

I'll put more into this theory in a bit. Need coffee before I crash.

Right sorry, and Chamber and Bobby are? :D

But my brain wasn't working that well, only two hours sleep :dead:

But I remember again now. R2-D2 and C-3PO are thse two.

And of course, Logan is Chewie.

:eek: Stop! You're scaring me with the Supreme Vader stuff! ... I don't want to have him as father... *sniff*

But of course Yodacrawler is going to have a show down with the Supreme Vader, Kurt's issue will be solved and Leicy will be solving hers with Loganbacca's fur :naughty:. Their, as Marvel puts it, "life-changing turning points" will then have occured!

But then again, a 'port to 'port combat would be nice too. :bamf:
