I haven’t kept up with any X-Men related comics in a few years. The storylines always seem never ending. X-Men comics are rarely written for the casual fans as I’m always feeling lost by just reading through a random issue. Now I see Rictor and Shatterstar, two characters that date back to the days ...

She apparently got the info from Perez Hilton at 9:15 this morning…the day Perez gets the drop on me when it comes to geek culture (gay or ...
