In this episode of AKPC, Sterling Silver, Master Jarl & myself 1407 Greymalkin discuss the X-Men books of the last couple of weeks(Wolverine #23, New Mutants #27, Marauders #4, Knights of X #4, Immortal X-Men #4, Hellfire Gala #1 and Judgment Day) we go over our thoughts and theories.
In this review of Judgement Day, we see The Eternals and how petty they are towards Krakoa. The art is on point and the story made me feel a certain way.
In this review of The Hellfire Gala, this over stuffed book bring the pain as The Mutants throw the party of the year while in the middle of controversy of the world discovering their Mutant Ressurrections.
In this review of New Mutants, we are almost at the finish line and this terrible arc that will not be remembered is over. This arc proves that Vita Ayala doesn’t know how to do anything with Magik aside show how much of a victim she is….. Yeah.
In this review of Marauders #4, we finally(It was forever taking) get to the bottom of the mystery of what happened with ‘The First Mutants’ and it explains a lot.
In this review of the prelude to Judgment Day, Emma Frost is the center piece where we get inside her head. We get the aftermath of The Hellfire Gala and how Krakoa has no friends only enemies.
Greetings, Splendid Seven devotees and martial arts aficionados. Antoni here with another written entry focusing on Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran specialising in the martial arts they do because they work wonderfully effective together in various situations from martial arts tournaments to defeating villains to stopping crime to making the martial arts their way of life not only as a team of powerful Yokai warriors but also as a strong, united family. If you recalled from yesterday, I made some tweaks of the martial arts Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran specialise in with a few guest appearances from some of their fighting game mentors. Think of this as a more abridged and truncated entry that has the gist of what these seven powerful Yokai warriors specialise in terms of fighting styles. With that said, let’s kick some opponent butt right now. Sesshoumaru is a specialist in clean and precise attacks, brutal takedowns, military-like strategies, and a whole lot of honour, decorum, and discipline as a striker, grappler, and clincher in the following martial arts. Karate (Shotokan, Shito-Ryu, Goju-Ryu, Shorin-Ryu, Shorei-Ryu, Motobu-Ryu, and Uechi-Ryu) Japanese Jujitsu Brazilian Jujitsu Judo Taekwondo Mixed Martial Arts Marine Corps Martial Arts Shuran is brute strength incarnate thanks to his use of leverage on his opponents’ bodies and using groundwork to defeat them in the most exceedingly brutal fashion possible as a mighty grappler in the following martial arts. Professional Wrestling (American, Mexican, and British) Vale Tudo Sambo Mongolian Wrestling Ssireum Pehlwani Malla-yuddha Inuyasha is known to be a dangerously ruthless combatant because of his penchant for close contact combat, powerfully explosive blows, and boundless strength, power, and stamina as a striker, grappler, and clincher as well as an overall warrior in the following martial arts. Karate (Kyokushin, Seidokaikan, Wado-Ryu, Ashihara, Budokan, Enshin, and Gosoku-Ryu) American Kenpo Karate Pankration Ancient Greek Boxing Ancient Greek Wrestling Bokator Kapu Kuialua Hakkaku has boundless perseverance regardless of the many occasions he gets knocked down thanks to how his iron will fuel his all of his strikes and clinches while maintaining great sportsmanship in the following martial arts. Muay Thai Pradal Serey Kajukenbo Panantukan Dambe Moraingy Taekkyeon Ginta has all the charm and lovability in the world that make him an infectious cavalier thanks to his pretty boy appeal, but his penchant for striking and clinching should never be taken for granted in the following martial arts. Lethwei Sanda Jeet Kune Do Pencak Silat Hwa Rang Do Tang Soo Do Eagle Claw Kung Fu Ayame bears the fierce iron fists of fury that can make every explosive blow cause major damage to her opponents as well as the fleet feet of lightning which demonstrates how effectively she can combine rapid speed and brute strength in the following martial arts. Kickboxing (Dutch, American, and Japanese) Koppojutsu Nippon Kenpo Boxing Hapkido Taido Krav Maga Shunran bears exciting amounts of agility, flexibility, and rapidness coupled with her resourcefulness and conscientiousness of her surroundings and who she is up against thanks to her fleet feet and grand repertoire of striking in the following martial arts. Capoeira Aikido Shaolin Kung Fu Systema Ninjutsu Wushu Baguazhang There you have it, ladies and gentlemen, The Splendid Seven’s martial arts lineup tweaked up, especially based on the fighting game mentors I gave them. It seems slightly more realistic. If you love this martial arts lineup I have in store for Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran or if you have any other suggestions, please let me know in the comments below. Thanks so much for reading, everybody.
