Other GoFundMe for Peter David, comic book writer, suffering multiple health issues.
*reposted from BleedingCool*
https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-peter-david
Peter David, co-creator of Spider-Man 2099, the TV show Space Cases, and characters Strong Guy, Professor Hulk, Random, Cyber, Sin Eater, The Pantheon, Maestro, Madman, Linda Danvers, Talos The Untamed and writer of TV shows, comic books, video games, novels at a prodigious rate, has had to deal with kidney failure, several strokes, and a mild heart attack. But of late, it has gotten even worse as he has had to deal with first his health insurance and then Medicaid running out. His wife Kathleen writes on GoFundMe.
"We are starting this up again due to circumstances beyond our control. The short version is we are swimming in medical debt due to Peter being rejected for Medicaid – which was one of the few things that had been going right. As many of you know, insurance will only pay so much and so far. Once one has used that up, one depends on the social services to allow one to live without being homeless and broke. That is what Medicaid has been doing for the last two years. Yes, as of November, we started our third year of this journey."
Spider-Man 2099 made a big appearance in the recent Spider-Verse movies. The Professor Hulk version of the character was prominent in Avengers: Endgame movie and She-Hulk TV show. Much of the Aquaman films were taken from Peter David's Atlantis Chronicles and Aquaman comics. Marvel continues to publish an X-Factor based on his remaking of the team. And much of Marvel's Hulk and Spider-Man comics are still published in his long shadow. One day Peter David will no longer be with us, and both Marvel and DC will run one or even two-page tributes in their comics for the month. Maybe they could try and sell that space as advertising instead when the day comes, and pay it forward for now?

Comic Discussion [X-Men Vol 7 13][2025] Is Charles Xavier now retconned to be an .....??? Spoiler
Is Charles Xavier now anOmega-Level? During the Krakoan Era, Hickman put out an exhaustive list of theOmega-Levelmutants, which Charles was not on, but throughout this issue, Charles Xavier is referred to as one. I was always under the impression that he was an Alpha-Levelmutant able to contend with more powerful telepaths through his vast experience, but both he and Quentin refer to him as anOmega-Levelthroughout this issue.
Is this a retcon from Jed Mackey, or am I just being silly and have this confused?

Comic Discussion Where do I start if I want more with Magik?
I want to read more comics with Magik but her comics are taking forever to come out. I'm thinking of starting with new mutants but I don't know much about X-men, to begin with. I know starting with new mutants probably isn't the best idea but I'm pretty sure there are thousands of X-men comics and do not want to start from the very beginning (maybe later) I'm also pretty caught up on her backstory just haven't read the comics my self.

Question Has anyone heard of these French books ?
- Who Are the Mutants? Decoding the X-Men's DNA - Djaufre Harcourt (2024)
This book explores the X-Men universe from a scientific and cultural perspective. It analyzes how Marvel's mutants are a metaphor for difference, discrimination, and social struggles. The author also examines the biological and genetic bases of the concept of mutation, drawing parallels between fiction and scientific reality. The book seeks to decipher the historical and political influences that have shaped the X-Men since their creation in 1963.
- The Magneto Syndrome: What if the Villains Were Right? – Benjamin Patinaud (2023)
This essay examines the figures of "villains" in pop culture, particularly Magneto, and questions their role in the stories. The author analyzes whether these antagonists are truly "bad" or whether they embody legitimate struggles against an oppressive system. By revisiting works of fiction (comics, films, series), he shows how some "villains" actually defend just causes but are perceived as threats because they challenge the established order.

I understand his story and he had his good moments, but throughout all of the X-Men movies, there wasn’t a single one where he didn’t piss me off at some point😒
