[January Spotlight On!] WildC.A.T.S./X-Men, Modern Age

Post by neling4 »

WildC.A.T.S/X-Men Modern Age was a collaboration between Image Comics and Marvel Comics, published in August of 1997. The story is by James Robinson, the pencils are by Adam Hughes and inks by Mark Farmer. The time frame is the second team before the Dark Phoenix Saga. The basic plot: A young mutant has disappeared. The X-Men suspect the local British branch of the Hellfire Club, and investigate. The WildC.A.T.S. also have an interest in this particular Hellfire Club. Here is a link to the Wikipedia summary of this story. Scroll down to the Modern Age:

If, like me, you are unfamiliar with the WildC.A.T.S., here is a link describing the team:

I have scanned all the pages on which Nightcrawler is featured. For some reason they are backwards, and the reason is probably my lack of technical knowledge. Check out the little panel to the right of the red lady on the sixteenth scan!!!!!:

(Edited by Nacht: I put them in the right order ;))

Thanks Nacht! :worship

Beautiful. I just find it odd that Nightcrawler, of all people, would call the Daemonites stuff like hideous looking "devil things."

I agree with Angelique!

But wow! Thanks for the scans, I love it! Much as I love him, Wolvie came off to be as an insufferable know it all. Maybe I'm just experiencing Wolverine-overload. XP

I love the scene with Kurt hiding behind Logan. Reminds me of the time with Alpha Flight that he jumped all over Logan when he was surprised by Snowbird. Our elf was so cute. <3

I would like to take a moment to thank the Technical Administrator as well as JSherlock, Ult_Sm86, and fourpawsonthefloor for telling me how to post these scans, (Although it took a while for their advice to penetrate my computer illiterate brain) and to NachtcGleiskette for arranging them in the proper order for me. Without their help, these scans would still be stuck in my Photobucket album, unseen and unappreciated.

Thank you!

For 11 LONG YEARS...
ever since I picked this book up off of the racks @ my local Comic Shop...
I have been absolutely fiending for some more ADAM HUGHES Nightcrawler!!!

Just from this one shot alone he ranks right up there with DAVIS and COCKRUM as one of my top 3 all-time favorite Nightcrawler artists!!





BAMF!
