	Phalanx - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Phalanx are a fictional species of villainous mechanical aliens in Marvel Comics' X-Men comic books.
		Phalanx [1] is the premier all-male a capella group at Elizabethtown College.
		The Phalanx was a Fourierist journal published in New York City from 1843 to 1845

		Ironically, it because these two comics are primarily fantasy comics, unlike the humour strips that people call the 'funnies', that makes the joke all the funnier for being unexpected.
		Maybe those people who never read comics before started reading webcomics because they realised that hey, comics do not have to equal heroes in spandex, which before always got associated with the stereotype of nerdy teenage fanboys that made reading comics 'uncool' and "for kids" or "not for girls" or whatever bullcrap people spout.
		Maybe they made comics and put them on the internet because it was simply the most convenient way to get it to their audience, and not because they wanted to reinvent the form.

		The Phalanx absorbs the limo, chauffer, and Cord-Becker.
		It is unable to analyze M due to psionic interference; the Phalanx hypothesizes she is the most powerful of the next generation of mutants, so it plans to kill her.
		The Phalanx are alerted, but they're busy downloading all of Xavier's data: they are unable to assimilate mutants and have the X-Men captive, as test subjects.

	Las Vegas Mercury: Cover story: Unmasked
		Comic Con International in San Diego had barely started and already the place was awash with freaks, exhibitionists and hardcore collectors with the glaze of four-color lust in their eyes.
		Comics are being heavily mined for film scripts, and Hollywood has discovered the books that don't conform to the spandex standard.
		He has been creating comics for over 60 years now and was one of the first to suggest the medium could be something greater, a new form of art and literature.

		The Freedom Phalanx had a decidedly American aura about it and The Statesman in particular was closely identified with the United States.
		In private, more than a few world leaders had reason to believe that the Freedom Phalanx had somehow provoked the Rikti attack, and thus did not fully trust the usually much-admired hero organization.
		Although many in the U.S. resented the UN's shunning the Freedom Phalanx, The Statesman supported the Vanguard's formation and took his place as one of the Elite Five.

		The Phalanx apparently have specialized components analogous to internal organs [EX #117], whereas the bodies of Technarchy individuals were completely undifferentiated except when they formed specialized sensory or output devices on their exterior [Web of Spider-Man Annual #2].
		Then it was a simple matter for the Phalanx to assimilate that part of him from his remains and gain his memories by repowering it.
		A similar proposal by Mario di Giacomo is that the Phalanx are a slave race created by the Technarchy, and that any organism transmoded and left alive becomes a Phalanx, not a Technarch.

	The Comics Journal: Interviews
		As a prominent comics creator who is now perhaps best known as the proprietor of Comicon.com, you might be regarded as an immigrant from print comics to the Internet, but to my knowledge, you have done little in the way of actual comics creation on the Internet.
		I can't think of a single cartoonist who was consciously using the form of comics as a vehicle for true self-exploration, in the same manner a painter uses oil and canvas, or a poet uses poetry, until Crumb came along in the late '60s.
		But most comics were, and still are, done by artists who have no idea what a real artistic trail they are blazing into the deepest recesses of their own minds.

		Ok, so webcomics are partially the rebellious progeny of the all-ages friendly newspaper comic, which according to some, nowadays apparently consists of the driest, most humourless stuff that can be found printed on dead trees.
		As should be obvious, the main spin Richard Stevens uses on this comic is the anthropomorphic angle of the characters as insects.
		The comic has capital airbrushed-looking colouring, and the artist's work on mechanical elements (airships and machinery) is to die for.

	X-Factor #106
		He brings them inside and explains that the X-Men were attacked by Phalanx, a techno-organic life form that is trying to replace all life on earth, and capable of cloning.
		The Phalanx was transmitted electronically from the Xavier mansion to Muir Island, where Xavier, Moira and Excalibur fought it and then fled, soon realizing that Xavier’s chair and their hovercraft were also compromised and had to be destroyed.
		Inside the Phalanx, Lang argues with Hodge; it seems parts of the Phalanx are starting to think independently, and mutants cannot be absorbed into the collective consciousness.

		The Phalanx collective contained Warlock, but they deliberately suppressed his memories and allowed him Doug's memories, so that he could be a trojan horse for them within the mutant population.
		The Phalanx were unknown in the MU until after Warlock's death.
		Both Warlock and the Phalanx units in the cartoon displayed abilities that were either previously unknown in the MU or directly contradicted their abilities as stated in the comics.

		For its day, this game was remarkable for being one of the few SNES shooters to fight off nasty slowdown that plagued other shooters -- and yet it still plowed on with screens full of enemies and power-ups that spun, split, spit, and otherwise shot crazy projectiles at the alien hoard.
		Phalanx also boasted some really impressive special effects, including dozens of layers of parallax scrolling in the background and a good deal of scaling bosses and fake-scaled enemies.
		Of course, the other claim-to-fame for Phalanx was it's unforgettable box art, which featured an old geezer sitting in a rocking chair playing the banjo while a space ship flew over his head...

		Phalanx specializes in historically-based strategy games as evidenced by Waterloo and A House Divided which are based respectively on the Napoleonic campaigns and the American Civil War.
		Fantasy Flight's announcement of its partnership with Phalanx comes at a time when there appears to be something of revival of interest in strategy-heavy boardgames.
		The addition of the Phalanx line with its combination of fast gameplay, high quality components, and epic themes should help Fantasy Flight, which publishes the popular Lord of the Rings and Dragonball Z boardgames, gain additional prominence in what has become a growing segment of the game market.
