Wolverine and Ragman

 

No mention of Logan/Wolverine casting for Marvel's upcoming new era of X-Men has been made, and it's assumed that the character will no be part of the cast to begin with.  It will be interesting to see when and where the character is eventually reintroduced.  I just hope he's short when he finally debuts.

Since Ragman was part of the CW Arrowverse, and Steven Ameil is going to be doing an updated Baywatch, i wonder if any of the old crew will drop by the new digs?? After Soidy went past 2 billion on the New Day, i doubt Marvel will do much to annoy the fans. 🤔

Nothing wrong with hope, Ross. It just might be too much to expect. Because, even in the comic books Logan looks like an NBA player compared Alpha Flight's Puck!.

I've never been too crazy about the supernaturalized Ragman. But, when it comes to a mistaken identity slugfest with Wolverine, the street-normal version of Rory Regan wouldn't stand a ghost of a chance, otherwise.

Since Hulk is back to being the Savage Hulk (without explanation), Marvel may be saving a Wolverine appearance for the next movie that features Hulk.

And hopefully it'll be someone with the appropriate vertical stature.

When and why is Wolverine, that lovable mutant decide to pull a batman stunt?

Stephen Amell is going to do a new Baywatch show???

I thought "Soider-man: Brand New Day" had rather strongly implied that Professor Hulk's inhibitions had been telekinetically undone by Jean Grey (as a sort of proto-Dark Phoenix).

He's probably trying (a little too hard?) to live up to his own personal mantra: "I'm the best there is at what I do."

@Anon557: Well, most of the time, he is.

Carycomic said...

@Anon555: O, dear! You and Detective Tobor seem to have misspelled Spider-Man.

And whose wrong soul might that be, Logan? Jean Grey's sister, Sarah? Maybe her death was literally untimely. The fabric of the Marvel multiverse seems to frown on that. That's why so many characters previously classified as 'stay-deads' (like Bucky Barnes) so frequently keep coming back!

Anon@5:55: No, by the time Peter talked to him, Bruce was already acting like Savage Hulk was an established fact and had been for a while.

@Cary: Maybe they're talking about Sider-Man, the superhero (from Suicide Squid's universe) who goes around after other supers have been fighting and repairs structural damage with aluminum siding.

@Cary & Bob: you're both wrong. I was talking about Cider Man. As in...
"Cider Man! Cider Man! Does whatever a cider press can.
Presses fermented apples dry. Just don't get juice in your.eye.
Hey, there! Here's some fresh cider, man!"

@Bob Greenwade: no, I didn't perceive it that way, at all. To me, he seemed like the same Professor Hulk he had been since the Blink.

Rare appearance of Ragman, one of the creepiest characters Neal Adams ever created and a worthy Batman villain. Loved when he appeared in Arrowverse, hated when he disappeared, though his effects must have been costly.
Unfortunately, simply not seen anymore.
He's like The Punisher and Phantom Stranger rolled into one. Team Ups there would work.
