This week’s issue of Marvels A+X comic series, which teams up Avengers and X-men members in 2 short stories by big name creators each issue, has some very interesting ad placement. The opening story for A+X #3 involves a team up of the recently broken up couple, Storm and Black Panther. The tale for the most part deals with the fact that Storm still loves the Black Panther and, vice versa, T’Challa still loves Orro, but they sadly cannot be together. Almost hilariously, right after the final splash page of this sweet little story is an ad for issue #24 of Wolverine and the X-men…featuring Storm making out rather passionately with Wolverine. Talk about some cuckolding ad placement for dear ol’ T’Challa!

Now considering both stories were written by Jason Aaron, this was likely a well planned ad placement, but was it in the greatest of taste? Well, I’ll leave that up to all the Storm and Black Panther fans out there to decide. I will say this though, Wolverine probably owes A+X editor, Nick Lowe, a bit of a fist bump.
