Northstar appears in this week's Age of X-Man: The Marvelous X-Men #4
The unpublished AF #7 cover by Skottie Young is now published in full. It's in the The Marvel Art of Skottie Young HC which was published last week, and there's a little blurb about it as well. Very cool. I think it's the first time the entire artwork is published, although digital copies have been around for a while.
Cool to get some acknowledgement!
Is that Skottie Young book by IDW?
It is 100% true blue Marvel. Here's the link from the Marvel website: https://www.marvel.com/comics/collec...oung_hardcover
That's so cute! (But we knew that from Skottie).
IDW have been doing a bunch of stuff like this - art books, and even some young-age Marvel books, that's what confused me.
What does the blurb say, Rob?

A friend just emailed me with this:
"In the new comic Fearless #1 from Marvel, Captain Marvel has a long talk in space with a a French accented dark haired woman. They never actually use her name but I think it has to be Aurora."
I agree, that's probably who it is (but I haven't read it).

"A guest sees more in an hour than the host in a year."
~ Polish proverb
Ooh, I'll give it a quick look!
Hmmm... they specifically refer to themselves as French, rather than French-Canadian, so I don't think it is her...
Thanks for checking that.
I still wouldn't be surprised if that was supposed to be her; remember how little the creators of Captain Marvel's recent series knew about AF. Not to mention just saying 'French' when they might've meant 'French-Canadian' (something the writer might've done, whether a French Canadian would or not).
I thought I'd try to clear it up by checking the 'net:
https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Fearless_Vol_1_1
that says it IS her, but unless Kelly Thompson confirms it, that's still just another opinion on this (of course).

~ Beryl Pfizer
Heh, that story was actually written by Seanen McGuire.
I messaged her on twitter and she confirmed it IS Aurora: https://twitter.com/seananmcguire/st...91738326163459
Apologies for doubting you!
Good catch
Phil, healthy skepticism is always… healthy. Especially when I've said myself I haven't read the issue. :)
-K-M- - thanks to my friend for catching it and alerting me.

There's a blink and you'll miss it appearance by one of the twins' hip in today's History Of The Marvel Universe #6 - the side the starburst is on the uniform suggests it's Aurora, but the stance is slightly more Northstar, and having him would make more sense as he's a bigger character.
Not quite an appearance, but tangentially connected:
Yesterday's King Thor #4 - Jason Aaron's final Thor issue had a splash page by Aaron Kuder, which appeared to have a Viking-Thor era team consisting of a Sasquatch weidling the Eye of Agamotto

I asked Jason on twitter if it was Tanaraq or just a Sasquatch and he answered:

Hmmm, definitely looks like a Squatch to me. There are lots of bits in KING THOR #4 that point back to stories I've done & questions I've left unanswered. Or forward to stories I wanna do. Or both.
Jason has shown his AF fandom by making Puck the ruler of Hell, and showing Walt as a tutor at the future JGS, and has also used other non-Walt Sasquatches in his Hulk run.
At first I thought that person in front of Squatch looked like Shaman, but then I figured it's a woman.
Possible Master of the World appearance in Ruins Of Ravencroft - Dracula. Just one panel and takes place in 1918
Shouldn't he still have been under the ice?
Or was he fighting Frankenstein's monster?
Or Kate Bush?
Or was he here in Canberra? I'll keep an eye out.

"When you're on top of the world, you should remember it turns over every twenty-four hours."
~ Tamie Fraser
Yep should have been in the ice. He was a “patient” in Ravencroft so could have been someone who lost their mind. But details were very specific to Master of the World
I must have skim-read and missed that panel in the preview!
Nicely spotted.

The timeline doesn’t make sense so maybe it wasn’t him but one of his minions or tried other ways to escape the ice that was not successful

A couple of Northstar cameo panels in today's Marvel Voices #1
I wasn't aware of this, as it didn't make it to this Country, along with Hellions #1, because of the lockdown; Guardian, Sasquatch, Aurora & Northstar appear in Tarot #4 as part of the lands of the free.
I didn't think anything was still being printed.
Is Tarot the latest Eventover?
~ Le Messor
"Those have most power to hurt us that we love."
~ Francis Beaumont
This came out, in the US, on March 25th; the last week that anything was distributed.
Tarot is a 4 issue mini-series written by Alan Davis and drawn by Paul Renaud.
Completely self contained, not event related.
Alan Davis? I'll have to remember to try to pick it up sometime. (Good luck with that, me.)
Going back to my King Thor post a few up ^
Re-reading back, Mighty Thor #7 had a cave painting of the Tanaraq:
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EWpWenNX...png&name=small
Are you thinking Tanaraq's the big one in the middle? Because now I'm seeing that as Thor with Marrina, Sasquatch, Talisman, and Shaman.
I know that's not what they're going for, but it's now how I'm seeing it. :)
Nope; Tanaraq is just about visible at the bottom left, slightly obscured by the dialogue panels.
The rest of the characters match up with the full scene in King Thor #4; Hellhawk the Ghost-rider, Nehanda the Black Panther, Bodolf the Black, Viking Thor, Atlantean Iron Fist
I see it now!
Is Bodolf the Black a character from that comic?
We must have covered this before, but I can't find it after a quick search:
In the Beast story in Marvel Comics Presents #91, they're talking about specific people they want to change into cyborgs, and Madison Jeffries is one of them.
I knew you could find it, Phil!
And, in my defence, this thread is 40 pages long, and I said I didn't look thoroughly. :oops:
Heh, I've got nothing but free time at the moment!
I hope that's a good thing.
