so hey. I'm planning on writing a fic centered on ric's attempt in xfi (who is surprised) and I wanna do it as voicemails from the other members of x-force. I know terry was with xfi with him but if anyone can give me like. either issue numbers or a general summary of what everyone else was doing in 2005 that would be great!

shatterstar version of this.

x-force 1991 aka situationships the comic run.

x-force runs have been trying and failing to capture the sheer batshit energy of the original lineup for almost thirty years at this point and they keep failing because none of them have weird situationships that can match the combined swag of domcable, jimmyterry, ricstar, and samtaberto. you will never be her.

this is soooo rictor leaving x force coded

we don't talk about the shatterstar and jimmy dynamic in x force 2018 enough.

both of them are running on anger and grief and the exhaustion of continually losing people. and they prop each other up as best they can.

take two on my ric with scars concept. (first explored here). i wanted to try it out in my rendered style (i still like the old style for quick drawings). i added a few scars in addition to the electrical burn and explosion scars. on his temple i put a scar from when he got shot by freedom force and on his chest i added claw marks from sabretooth.

further design notes: i brought back his earring from the 80s and i gave him curls bc he should have them. i also gave his hair an auburn tint bc in x force 1991 his hair was typically a dark red.

bobby what have they done to you....

"he's too young." and was he not too young at sixteen when you, an adult woman, started grooming him and putting him in leather bondage gear.

JAMES.

my roman empire is the rest of og x force finding out about ric's suicide attempt.

okay important question

fight for your choice in the tags!!
