Ah, thanks for that! Now that you mention it, that's something I do remember hearing. I guess "computer generated graphics" was barely a thing at that point, so that makes more sense. Creative way to cheat the backgrounds! Thanks for subscribing!

My little brother Picked this baby up off the stand down the street from my house at a Beckers Store in Toronto in 1984. It was not June though. Back by about two months or more. More like March. One day I was flipping through his stack and ended up trading him for some comic of mine. Cant remember which. Once I flipped through it, i was like WTF, where are they, whats going on? Wow. I knew Id be getting the rest of the series now. I was 13 years old. Moved from Vancouver to Ontario in 1983. Brought my comics with me. Lol.

Erik Larsen's art is pretty cool, i liked it since i was a teen in the 90s. When comics were great. Now, not so much, i don't follow Erik,i don't care for him anymore. But again, hus art is cool, as an artist/ illustrator i was influenced by him and all the image guys. Savage dragon i stopped reading after issue 6 i think.

People were all up and arms in my shop when this came out. I thought it was cool. It made sense that becoming a energy type being would be the next evolution for his powers. I believe though it was a subconscious or maybe conscious effort by DC to "depower" him. Breaking to the old thought that Supes is too OP.

I bought it off the rack when it came out. I was never a big fan of Superman, so this was a jumping on point for me. It got me reading Morrison's JLA when they launched that, too. Too bad it never really went anywhere and is mostly forgotten.

@@KaufmanIsAlive Morrison run or Blue and Red Superman? I really liked Morrison run on JLA. I never read a ton of Supes outside of the JLA either. But like you I picked this up, and when Death Of came out I got that whole run until his return. Mullet Superman was too much for me lol.

I meant Superman Blue never went anywhere, although you're right I guess they did do Red/Blue which was a cool concept to try and salvage the Blue Superman. Loved Morrison's JLA

Totally different is called progression. But since none of the characters age may as well go back to status quo. In my opinion they should have kept Krakoa in some capacity (or having it damaged or vanish in a way you know it will be back or more relevant again in the future) though some characters and or groups and or eras would use it more than others, with some living on it, and some wanting nothing to do with it at all....

@@cliffwoodbury5319 The impression I got from Fall of House of X/Rise of Powers of X #5 was that Krakoa DID "vanish in a way you know it will back". I feel if creators want to tell more stories in that setting, they will be able to, much like the Age of Apocalypse era. At least, I hope so because I agree with what you are saying, and I also wish we were still in Krakoa. I enjoyed the paradigm shift, there was much to explore yet.

Good review 👍 I do not and never had any problems with Liefeld's art. I am still a big fan. You are right about the Winter Soldier remix of this story. Also the MCU Falcon borrowed from Heroes Reborn Captain America by having him in the Miilitary/Air Force . The 616 comic origin of the Falcon is so bad and convoluted that I salute Jeph Loeb and Rob Liefeld for this updated origin.

Good review 👍 I loved this issue . I remember Magneto making an appearance in the previous issue (X-FORCE #24) remaking Graymalkin. Capullo is superb. Nicieza is superb. Great inks and colours too. The first few pages reminded me of Fantastic Four # 52 when T'Challa takes down the Fantastic Four. X-FORCE #25 was a very high quality comic book . The quality would did slightly after this issue until Age of Apocalypse.
