Scary Monsters – The Uncanny X-Men #262 – Danger Room #307

1. Guys, Kieron Dwyer is actually quite good. I just don’t think Rubenstein was a good inker for him on issue #262. His Captain America run was solid though. Check out “Captain America: The Bloodstone Hunt”; it’s a love letter to the pulp-era adventure hero, which is basically what Indiana Jones is. Plus Dwyer’s art is inked much better.

   Also, take a look again at issue #260.
   Jenny Ransome had been showing signs of becoming… simple before the events in #262. Not quite “Hulk mad, Hulk smash” kind of simple, but definitely giving off vibes of “Venice Beach muscle-jock in a speedo lifting weights and downing cans of Monster Energy drink”. It was reiterated by Genoshan magistrates in #259 that she experienced some cognitive modifications during the mutate process that gave her the muscles, so there’s probably a link to be made. #262 might just be the first time Philip is noticably alarmed by her increasingly un-Jenny behavior.

   Don’t worry guys, as your memory degrades with each episode, your listeners will step in with an assist whenever you get lost in the parking lot of Walgreens while looking for the ramp to Interstate 90.
