X-Men

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Post a comment below to take a turn pimping either or both the Comicverse and Movieverse X-Men fandoms!

A week in advance of your assigned month you will be notified with a reply to your comment. During that time, you agree to post a minimum of 1 fic per week in the following format:

Subject: Title by Author (Rating)

Fandom: YOUR FANDOM
Pairing: (no abbreviations, please)
Author on LJ: (if applicable)
Author Website: (author's fics, if available)
Why this must be read:

Emphasis should be on fics that you feel are especially outstanding and accessible examples of your fandom, e.g. it plays on a repeated theme in the show, it's a fandom or a personal favourite, it was a controversial fic, it's good smut. Whatever.

Warnings are not required beyond what the author has posted on their own stories.

Thanks for playing and remember, kids! Without you, the crack_van will run out of gas!!

Hi, I'd be glad to take a turn at reccing some X-Men comicverse. :-) March would be a better month for me, but I could probably manage February if needed.

[vagabondsal.livejournal.com]

Ahh, yes, and if you'd like to e-mail me, I check my aliased 'username@livejournal.com' account fairly regularly, so please, feel free to contact me there. :-)

February would be great for me, actually... (teland @ teland.com)

[twigged.livejournal.com]

February's covered, so I'll tap you in March. Thanks!

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Great, thanks!!

I'll take a month. I think April is up for grabs, right? Good, that gives me time to come up with stuff that I haven't read in a while :) ::goes to dig through comicverse sites::

Hey! Yes, April recs are yours. I'll be sending you an email soon regarding posting guidelines, etc.

Please let me know if you don't receive the email or if you are unable to make recs this month. Thanks!

Well, I can do May if no one else can, I suppose.

Crack Van - June (X-Men Comicverse)

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Hey, you're up for June recs! I will send you more info by email shortly. Let me know if you do not receive it or if you can't play this month. Thanks!

Crack Van - July

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Hey, evildrem! You are signed up for July recs in both the Star Wars Franchise and the X-Men Comicverse fandoms. Please let me know if you want to do both at once, or if you want me to put a call out for additional volunteers (and let me know which one you want to do first, in that case) Thanks so much for signing up!!

[andraste]

I'd be up for X-Men comicverse again in August or beyond.

I've been wondering, though - would it be OK for me to do a month of recs for Ultimate X-Men stories? It's set in a different universe, but they're still X-Men comics, and there's a lot of overlap in terms of both readership and people who write in the fandom.

Crack Van - July?

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Er... would you actually be available for July? The reccer I had lined up is having to bow out for real life stuff.

And I don't mind stories in a peripheral universe, but you should be clear in your rec that that's the case, and give whatever additional info is needed for someone to understand the fic.

Sure - email me at andraste@bigpond.com as before *g*.

I'll put in continuity notes, same as I did with my Farscape recs. There's not much to know with Ultimate X-Men, since the series has less than fifty issues to date. It's much easier to understand than regular comic continuity *g*.
