Astonishing X-Men #51 variant cover by Marko Djurdjevic.
…OK, that is damn pretty. For the first time ever, I’m seriously tempted to actually buy a variant cover.
ksjdlk;a awww
Oh wow. I don’t read X-men anymore but I’m tempted to nab this one.
god Marko Djurdjevic could illustrate literally ANY cover or title and I would buy it negl
oh god this is gorgeous. Buying X-Men for the first time in forever.
Couldn’t the guests dress up in fancy wear instead of their costumes? And Iceman and Storm need to calm their shit.
Otherwise, fuck yeah, that’s gorgeous.
Ororo Munroe is too BAMF to sit down with regular heroes or wear pants for that matter
idk wtf Iceman’s excuse is
they just want a good view so they can see the making out :D
IS HANK PERFORMING THE CEREMONY?!
AUGH YES.
For those of you unfamiliar with Spaced, it’s a half hour single cam comedy created and written by Simon Pegg & Jessica Hynes nee Stevenson, directed by Edgar Wright. It aired on Britain’s Channel 4 in 1999 and 2001. The premise, like Community’s, is standard sitcom fodder. Where Community sees a disbarred lawyer forced to enter into community college, where we encounter a wacky group of people he soon forms close friendships with, Spaced begins with Tim and Daisy, two strangers who pretend to be a couple in order to move into a North London apartment they were separately vying for, where they encounter a wacky group of residents, and each other’s wacky friends, who they soon forge close friendships with. What neither logline hints at are that both shows were created by giant nerds with a vast understanding of genre and pop culture who apply that knowledge boldly and uniquely, challenging the notion of a sitcom, pushing the homage envelope, and bonding with its audiences in a way rarely seen before or since.

A few hours ago, I landed in Los Angeles, turned on my phone, and confirmed what you already know. Sony Pictures Television is replacing me as showrunner on Community, with two seasoned fellows that I’m sure are quite nice - actually, I have it on good authority they’re quite nice, because…

Generally I agree, though some of these episodes are a little bizarre to watch out of context. I also LOVE Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered, Lover’s Walk, Something Blue, Tabula Rasa, Smashed, The Prom, Halloween, and I generally like season six way more than anyone else, though seasons 1-3 are obviously best. What do you guys think of this list?
