Ryhmä-X 1986: New year, new partner. In 1986 the Finnish publisher for Marvel. Superhero comics, Semic. Had to find new partners in order to keep publishing the X-Men. Or “Ryhmä-X” comics. Since Finland is a small market area, the publishers have always tried to find other publishing companies abroad to even out the printing costs. You see, back in the day the magazines were printed most likely using offset technique. The time leap of 1/1986. Essential X-Men vol. 4 Cover. Peter Rasputin’s (Colossus).

Ihmesarja – Oh Remy!
http://ohremy.mcmuumio.net/category/ihmesarja
Sorry seems to be the hardest word. Last time I wrote about the skipped issues and made a slight mistake. I had misplaced my Ihmesarja #17 which covers the rest of the missing issues #158 onwards, so it seems I have all except one of the skipped issues from The Uncanny X-Men. Yay! The only issue I thus miss is #144 where Scott Summers/Cyclops. And his current girlfriend wannabe Lee Forrester. Let’s be frank, the plot sounds quite arbitrary and uninteresting. Himself. *wink, wink, nudge, nudge*. 8216;s gi...

Speaking at the Tampere Kuplii comics festival. A month ago I spent the weekend in Tampere, a city just north of Helsinki. I was asked to speak at the Tampere Kuplii. Comics festival about Marvel comics. I was given my choice of topic so I decided to talk about what Marvel taught me as a young child/teenager growing up. But that’s enough of my relatives. One of the bigger influences of my life were the Marvel superhero comics. Oh, the horror they were for a young teenager trying to figure o...We had to v...

Punisher: War Zone (2009). It’s not every day I get excited about a movie full of racist stereotypes and hardcore violence. In fact, when my friend borrowed me his copy of Punisher: War Zone (2009). I was not very keen on seeing the film, but I’m happy to admit I was wrong. Punisher – the odd one out. Even though I haven’t yet, I’m also going to discuss Punisher. Something I find hard to accept, since he really doesn’t fit in. The sad thing is, in the beginning Punisher comics were not that bad. Sure...

Lenin leggings and a matching hat – Oh Remy!
http://ohremy.mcmuumio.net/2011/06/lenin-leggins-and-a-matching-hat
Lenin leggings and a matching hat. It took me two days to finish Ryhmä-X 1/1985 and I blame it solely on Arcade. As I promised in my last post I’m going to dwell on this subject through this post. Well that’s straightforward. The X-Men. Are caught by Arcade, placed inside Murderworld. Face a few ridiculous challenges, and escape almost without a scratch. There, I’ve just described every Arcade/Murderworld story for you. (This one was from X-Men 123-124.). And SH.I.E.L.D. Arcade is an assassin who inherit...

Going to the Movies:. I finally did it. I found the courage and watched Elektra. According to the public opinion this movie seems to be beyond repair and allegedly even the leading actress Jennifer Garner. Has told her fans to not watch it. I embraced myself and pressed play…. Elektra of the comics. Came known to the world from Daredevil. And for crime lords like Kingpin. Indeed. The movie is just a wasted opportunity. They had Elektra, and they had her being played by the very popular at the tim...At le...

Christmas the X-Men style: bruises, murder, and one destroyed mansion. In Ryhmä-X 11/1985 the X-Men. 8211; or rather just Kitty. 8211; face an alien monster in a Christmas special (notice, this was published in December in Finland). The alien from a race called N’garai. In a story called “Demon” (orig. Uncanny X-Men # 143) is a clear tribute to Ridley Scott. But it’s not the only scary thing to happen in the story. Just take a look here…. Ngarai crashes the mansion in hunt for Kitty. If you’ve seen...
