Songbook Xtended: Nightswimming
R.E.M. - Nightswimming (1993) [Original Post]
Another song I haven't thought about in a long time. Maybe thirty years. More nostalgic than I would like, but the chance to rediscover something is always nice. I'm not one for swimming much, and wouldn't advise doing it at night, but hey. That's the romance of the picture it paints. Live a little. Or at least, listen to somebody who has.

InfiniteWars: Quicksilver vs Professor X
QUICKSILVER versus PROFESSOR X
Mortal Coils (Marvel)
Where: Uncanny X-Men #306 When: November 1993
Where: Uncanny X-Men #306 When: November 1993
Why: Scott Lobdell How: John Romita Jr
The Story So Far...
The funeral of Illyana Rasputin is interrupted with the return to Earth and Xavier's School by Magneto! The former New Mutants teacher has again taken up arms against homo-sapiens, declaring his intent to lead an army of Acolytes against humanity, with a final invitation for any loyal mutant to join he and his cause!
The escalation inevitably triggers world powers to initiate their Magneto Protocols to bar the Master of Magnetism from Earth itself, but it can only delay the inevitable as Magneto reaches a new apex in power and fervor, arming his Avalon space satellite with Shi'ar weapons stolen during his time with the X-Men.

Knowing
the stakes are too high to allow his old friend to pursue a deadly
manifesto unchallenged; Charles Xavier steels himself for a final
confrontation between his X-Men and the mad revolutionary, recruiting
Magneto's son -- Pietro Maximoff, Quicksilver -- for a final sparring
session in the Danger Room. Preparation for a war that will decide the
fate of all of humanity!

Infinite Wars: Batman vs Riddler
BATMAN versus RIDDLER
Who Riddled The Riddler? (DC)
Where: Batman #490 When: March 1993
Why: Doug Moench How: Jim Aparo
The Story So Far...
A note written in cut-out letters signals the return of The Riddler and his latest deadly puzzle: "What crowns just one but beats a dozen? Bim bam boom. Some percussion."
Commissioner Gordon summons a weak and weary Batman to crack the code, but the grim detective will be beaten to the solution by a man who has vowed to study his every move -- and break him!

With
the midnight deadline fast approaching; Batman races to the belfry atop
Gotham City Hall where The Riddler awaits -- but a brief encounter with
another shadowy figure has changed The Riddler's game. Will Batman be
ready?

Infinite Wars: New Fantastic Four vs Fantastic Four
SECRET DEFENDERS versus FANTASTIC FOUR
Suddenly... The Secret Defenders (Marvel)
Where: Fantastic Four #374 When: March 1993
Why: Tom DeFalco How: Paul Ryan
The Story So Far...
When Johnny Storm was caught alone in a surprise ambush by Paibok the Power Skrull, Lyja, and Devos The Destroyer -- he unleashed the full force of his nova blast in a last ditch effort to survive!
The desperate tactic left nearby Empire State University in scorched ruins, earning the ire of a public who believes Human Torch's flaming assault was a reckless act of endangerment.
With the rest of the Fantastic Four preoccupied -- and mercenaries taking to the streets to hunt The Torch down -- his old friend Spider-Man seeks the aide of Doctor Strange to assemble a familiar team to bring him in peacefully. With a simple astral projection the erstwhile New Fantastic Four are reunited!
