But My Birthday's Not Until February!
I like Pete Wisdom. I like him a lot. I like his suits and I like his attitude and I really liked how Kitty Pryde managed to move beyond the teenaged wunderkind and actually develop a real personality.
It's not particularly news, I'm sure, that Pete (one of my top 4 favorite Marvel Characters ever) is getting his own MAX miniseries. I like MAX books. They can be a good excuse to go past the standard fare for superhero comics and try for something newer/riskier. Sometimes they suck, and are just gratuitous, but other times they can be really good.
It's written by Paul Cornell. I like Paul Cornell. He writes for Doctor Who. I love Doctor Who. His plots tend to be interesting and weird, which should work well with this character and this mini.
It's apparently going to have a skrull! I like skrulls! I like almost every skrull character I've read in Marvel. Skrull characters are neat. And green. I like green.
Newsarama has a preview up.
Apparently, the story is going to be Pete Wisdom vs Fairies.
Pete Wisdom vs Fairies.
And there may be a gun toting fairy dissident.
PETE WISDOM VS FAIRIES.
I can't, at this moment, think of anything that sounds awesomer then this series will be. Happy day for me!

You are aware that a MAX series with Pete Wisdom means the very real possibility of an appearance by a nude Kitty Pryde!
Not that I am looking forwards to that. I'm just saying.

LIAR! All humans, male or female, seek the grail of a nude Katherine Pride!

I just read this book. It's awesome. Just pure fun from beginning to end.
And female fans of Pete are going to be very, VERY happy with this issue.

Totally OT: I saw this on a blog about the election and you'd get a kick out of this, Kalinara...
"By the way, was anyone aware that the name of the Republican challenger to NC's Speaker of the House was named Hal Jordan?"

I am such a happy fangirl right now

calvinpitt: That's not uncommon with Cornell writing. :-P
sallyp: Nope!
dan: You are a horrible tease!

papervolcano: Oh yes!
