Comic Watch Pride: The Evolution and Erasure of Wolverines Sexuality – Comic Watch

Posted: at 10:39 am

Lets face it, Wolverine has often been lauded as the epitome of hetero-masculinity for quite some time, and there are no doubt plenty of receipts to show why that vision persists.

The rough and tough character is just overflowing with testosterone-filled badassery and there are more than enough comics to back that up. Hes the best there is at what he does, and what he does isnt very nice, right? Hes maimed and killed for years, and in that time, had more than his fair share of relationships with women in the greater Marvel Universe. From Mariko Yashida, Itsu who bore his son Daken to even Mystique as well as lesser known characters like Rose OHara and Silver Fox, the list continues of Wolverines sexual exploitations over the years. But in the course of this history, there has also been a slowly evolving broadening of his sexuality that while not canonically confirmed yet, shows there is more to this character than meets the eye, and trust me, there is a LOT that meets the eye. But its time for fans and more importantly, Marvel, to come to terms with the ever-elusive notion that Wolverine isnt just a straight man.

While this isnt a declaration of a definitive sexual orientation for our beloved Canadian mutant, there are more than a few instances throughout his history showing an evolution, both intentionally and unintentionally on Marvels part. The first and most prominent example of Wolverines increasingly fluid sexuality you will undoubtedly come across is a series titled X-Treme X-Men which began in 2012 spinning out of Astonishing X-Men featuring one Captain Howlett during his travels through the multiverse. In these travels, it is eventually revealed in X-Treme X-Men #10 that this version of Wolverine shared a romantic love with none other than Hercules.

Their love in this story reaches great depths, and when it is eventually lost, the grief that Logan feels is powerful. When this happens, the person beside him is quite literally the alternate version of himself, the Wolverine from the Astonishing X-Men. Its an interesting moment to see the two grapple with the loss of this love as the mainstream vision stands just behind a vision of Wolverine that captured what he cannot. But in the heat of the moment there is only room for one tear and then that story becomes just a memory, destined to be lost to multidimensional retcons and reboots. A move like this for a character like Wolverine appearing in an alternate universe comes as no surprise, as Marvel has shown a strong reluctance to promoting these themes for him even when it is rather obvious.

Wolverines relationships with other men in the past have been complicated to say the least. Going all the way back to the Giant-Size X-Men #1 in 1975 when we are first introduced to the unique chemistry Wolverine shares with Nightcrawler, it didnt really start all that well. Wolverine jokes and pokes fun at Nightcrawler often, but as we all know, the two would eventually grow remarkably close. It has rarely hit a point beyond close friends, even during the Marvel Comics Presents #101-108 run in 1992 titled Male Bonding which saw the two reunite for the first time following the Mutant Massacre. Here we see the closeness of their dynamics come to the forefront, once more only providing hints though. There have been interesting highlights, such as when Wolverine lashed out at Nightcrawler during Uncanny X-Men #143 in 1981 after Wolverine attempted to introduce Mariko at the X-Mansion to even recently when the two were able to share a moment of reflection just before a suicide mission in House of X #4 in 2019, the emotional depths of their relationship has been firmly put into place. But in order to take it beyond friendship, creators have been forced to sneak in signals right under Marvels nose, which as many fans of X-Men will know, isnt all that much of a rarity.

In Wolverine #6 by Greg Rucka, Darick Robertson and Tom Palmer, we find Wolverine and Nightcrawler catching up at a bar sharing their love of beer together. Its yet another moment that shows the intensity of their bond and how it can take shape, but for this issue, it isnt the interior pages that make it stand out, its the cover.

The racy, not-so-nuanced cover featuring some provocative imagery between Wolverine and a definitely nude Nightcrawler is an example of the extremes that creators have gone to get hints across without the notice of strict editorial decisions. There arent many overt comic panels that you can point to as a definitive moments for a character like Wolverine in exploring sexuality, and that is something that Marvel continues to struggle with across the Mutantdom even today, but the cover to Wolverine #6 is a perfect example of that exploration making itself known regardless. People like series writer Greg Rucka and Jill Pantozzi have commented on the issues release with this cover and CBR even spoke with cover artist Esad Ribic after the issue was published saying ..

I once was at a show where I asked Esad about this cover.

Esad is a big, cheerful, man with a wicked sense of humor.

He just looked at me.

And then he smiled.

And the smile got bigger.

And bigger.

And he said, And nobody at Marvel noticed!

And then he couldnt stop laughing.

These types of tidbits arent breaking news to longtime fans of X-Men, but its a process that becomes apparent in unique ways with this character. And that is ultimately the process that I am interested in with Wolverine and the constant state of evolution weve found the character in.

Despite the curious moments that fill Wolverines history, this is not a situation involving a prominent declaration such as when we finally got Iceman out definitively as gay. Its about the exploration of sexuality itself and how the process of self-discovery can manifest in our relationships both with ourselves and others. Weve seen a new stage in that process recently with even more hints coming from Hickman in the exciting Dawn of X initiative which sees Logan approaching his relationship with both Jean and Scott in an entirely new way, sparking countless discussions of something deeper happening with both of them. Even suggesting a throuple status between the famed trio thanks to some interesting pieces of information from HoX/PoX and what came after.

With Krakoa allowing them to all share a home together on the Moon in a place called the Summers House in X-Men #1 (2019), fans were quick to point out that the living arrangements placed Scott and Logans room on either side of Jeans to conjoin them. It was once again a subtle hint, but it was then followed with a more on-the-nose conversation between Scott and Logan in issue #7 when Logan responds Well, who could say no to that? when Scott mentions himself in a Speedo as part of the scenery. Their relationship has certainly become more intimate as of late, with fans even going so far as to point out flirtatious touching between Cyclops and Wolverine. However, the history of LGBT+ representation in the X-Men is filled with hints and nonconfirmations such as this, and while some creators have been able to overcome this method and explore certain characters sexuality more openly, it seems Wolverine has been left to just vague references.

Over the course of decades, more intense emotions flare and make themselves known in both subtle and not-so-subtle ways, but they are also never followed up on in any sort of meaningful way. Wolverines constant evolution followed by periods of erasure represents an editorial process that reflects the industry itself and how its been able to find a voice in such matters, not always doing so successfully. Not only this, it also shows that every LGBT+ story will not look the same, and with all of the moments we can find even in Wolverines past, its the examination of oneself that represents the journey. Ive found a sense of relatability in the journey that Wolverine is on as a character and where we as readers see him today.

Wolverines journey in its entirety, both on and off the panel, represents an evolution of masculine male sexuality despite expectations when confronted with erasure. Its worthwhile, giving a voice to those with a story not nearly as recognizable as others, and its got the precedent to continue the exploration in a meaningful way, but where we go from here is up to Marvel.

Headache, Dizziness Before Fever And Cough May Predict Clinical Evolution of COVID-19, Says Research – – Woman’s Era

Posted: at 10:39 am

Headache may be a key symptom of COVID-19 that predicts the diseases clinical evolution in individual patients, new research suggests. An observational study of more than 100 patients showed that headache onset could occur during the presymptomatic or symptomatic phase of COVID-19 and could resemble tension-type or migraine headache.

Headache itself was associated with a shorter symptomatic period, while headache and anosmia (loss of sense of smell) were associated with a shorter hospitalization period. In a subgroup of participants, headache persisted even after the symptoms of COVID-19 had been resolved.

Investigators note that understanding the pathophysiology of headache in COVID-19 could improve understanding of migraine and other headache disorders.

It seems that those patients who start early on, during the asymptomatic or early symptomatic period of COVID-19, with headache have a more localized inflammatory response that may reflect the ability of the body to better control and respond to the infection by SARS-CoV2, lead investigator Patricia Pozo-Rosich, MD, PhD, head of the Headache and Craniofacial Pain Unit at Vall dHebron University Hospital, Barcelona, Spain, told Medscape Medical News.

She presented the findings at the American Headache Society (AHS) Annual Meeting 2020, which was virtual this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Systemic Inflammation

Headache is one of the main symptoms of COVID-19. A recent study of 214 patients with COVID-19 showed that approximately 13% of the participants had headache and 5% had anosmia. SARS-CoV2 penetrates the cells through the ACE2 receptor, which is present throughout the body.

SARS-CoV2 enters the body through the nasal cavity and it probably penetrates the nervous system in the periphery through afferent branches of the olfactory and trigeminal nerve, Pozo-Rosich said.

It travels to the lungs and, later, the bloodstream. This generates systemic inflammation that may turn into a cytokine storm. Evidence has identified cortical hyperintensities and olfactory bulb hyperintensities in patients with COVID-19, suggesting that the virus directly infects the central nervous system.

Interleukin-6 (IL-6), one of the main inflammatory molecules, has been proven to be related to COVID-19 and has become a therapeutic target. Levels of IL-6 may be lower and tend to be more stable in patients with both COVID-19 and headache than in patients with COVID-19 only.

The researchers observed 130 patients (51% women; mean age, 54 years) with COVID-19 who were attended by neurologists at Vall dHebron. In this group, 74.4% had headache.

Patients with headache tended to be younger than those without headache (mean age, 50 years vs 63 years, respectively) and tended to be women (58.6% vs 29.4%).

Approximately one third of patients with headache had a history of migraine. Most reported mild to moderate pain that resembled tension-type headache. In participants with severe pain and migraine-like features, headache more often began during the asymptomatic phase of COVID-19.

The headache preceding typical COVID-19 symptoms was distinct from the patients usual migraine, alluding to the possibility that headache related to COVID-19 is mechanistically different than migraine. It is possible that headache is a manifestation of COVID-19 CNS invasion or cytokine storm, though further data are needed.

The first patients headache resolved with resolution of other COVID-19 symptoms, while the second patient continued to have headaches for two weeks after resolution of typical COVID-19 symptoms. Moreover, the first patient did not have migrainous features with her continuous headache.

How Landscape Helped Land Animals Evolve Cognitive Ability of Planning Better Than Aquatic Counterparts – NewsClick

Posted: at 10:39 am

African Savanna. Image Courtesy: Wikimedia Commons.

Animals on land are cognitively more advanced than most of their aquatic counterparts. One of these faculties include planning for the future. There is a difference between a planned move and a move which is the result of intrinsic habitual instincts.

Lets take an example. When a fish (a prey) senses an attack by a predator, the immediate move it makes is to go in the opposite direction, which comes out of habitual instincts. But for a land animal, both in prey and predators, things might become a bit different. A predator plans in advance before unleashing the attack on his prey, and the prey in return will also behave in a manner that goes beyond what is simply behavioural instinct.

All animals -- on land or in water -- had the same amount of time to evolve, so why do land animals have most of the smarts?was the question that led Professor Malcolm Maclver of Northwestern University to conduct an elaborate experiment. The results of it has been published in Nature Communication on June 16.

Malcolm Maclver has been engaged in a series of studies to find out why and how the land animals have evolved the ability to plan. The Nature paper is the latest one of the series of studies.

The research findings show that complex landscapes have given impetus to the evolution of advanced cognitive abilities of planning in case of land animals. While open water is vastly empty, land is filled with obstaclestrees, hills, water streams etc. in between vast open fields.This has provided the prey spaces to hide and the predators could hide themselves before a sneak attack is being attempted. This landscape composition, according to Malcolm, might have provided the land animals the ability of planning.

But, there is also a limit that a landscape provides an evolutionary edge to the animals dwelling on it. The researchers found that either simple landscape like open fields or packed landscapes like dense forests could not offer any advantage for the land animals.

Malcolm, a professor of biomedical and mechanical engineering, in his previous studies found those animals who rose from water and invaded the land, somewhere 385 million years back, developed their capacity to see to an enormous distance than they could inside water. His hypothesis suggests that the ability to see much further from the perspective of a prey or a predator, needed more brain power than hunting in open and vastly empty water. But the new study throws new light to this previous hypothesis and suggests that not only better vision capacity but also landscape characteristics provided the land animals the edge to develop planning ability, which is required in the land mixed of plain, vegetation, hills, water, etc.

We speculated that moving onto land poured jet fuel on the evolution of the brain as it may have advantaged the hardest cognitive operation there is: Envisioning the future. It could explain why we can go out for seafood, but seafood can't go out for us, Malcolm is quoted to have said.

Stating this hypothesis, Malcolm and his colleagues started with computer simulations in order to test the survival rates of prey hunted by a predator in two circumstances. Number one is habit based, that is instinctive and number two is plan based, that is out of possible ways, selecting the near perfect one. The team created an open world without much obstacles to mimic an aquatic condition and then added objects of different densities to mimic a land.

In a situation that depicts simple aquatic or terrestrial environments, as the study found, survival rate of the prey that uses habit-based instinctive drive and also those having planning capacity is low. Same was the case for too densely packed environment like coral reefs or the dense rainforests.

In those simple open or highly packed environments, there is no benefit to planning. In the open aquatic environments, you just need to run in the opposite direction and hope for the best. While in the highly packed environments, there are only a few paths to take, and you are not able to strategise because you can't see far. In these environments, we found that planning does not improve your chances of survival, he said.

But landscapes like that of Savanna, having open fields with patches of vegetation, the findings show, increase the survival rate for those having planning capabilities. As planning increases, the likelihood of survival that the brain structure provided the animals planning capacity could have been evolutionarily selected.

Jean-Michel Jarre says virtual reality concert will be like the Matrix – Belfast Telegraph

Posted: at 10:37 am

French electronic music pioneer Jean-Michel Jarre has said his upcoming virtual reality concert will be like the Matrix.

he 71-year-old, from Lyon, said it would go one step beyond the concert US rapper Travis Scott played inside the online shooter game Fortnite in April.

Jarre, best know for his 1976 album Oxygene, will perform as an avatar on Sunday from inside a virtual universe created to mark the French world music day, Fete de la Musique.

The composer, performer and producer told the PA news agency: It is a real premiere in that it is a first.

Some people have played in Fortnite, for instance, but this is a totally different environment, because in those cases so far you place pre-recorded sessions into an existing video game environment.

In this case it is a live event a totally original environment created for the performances.

Its not part of the video game environment at all. We are using VR for something special and something specific.

Referring to the 1999 film, he added: It will be like the Matrix.

Jarre said the coronavirus pandemic had shown the value of music and called for musicians to be better respected for their work.

He said: The planet has realised that we only do two things: going out for food, and listening to movies and watching music. Without music, this time would have been a time of total despair.

It shows the value of music. We have to stop considering music and musicians as only getting money by touring.

The pandemic has changed our relationship with the world of music and our audience. Its a good time to say: We can create, we can invent but we need to be respected.

Jarre is known for performing in vast outdoor spaces, including the Forbidden City in China and the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt.

He said that with VR he could create environments that could never be achieved in real life.

From one song to another you can be in a small discoteque and then in the following one you can be in a Wembley Stadium in space, he said.

The concert, Alone Together, will be streamed free at 8.15pm on June 21 on Jarres website.

The show was built in collaboration with the VRrOOm platform, created by Louis Cacciuttolo.
