That sounds like the worst buddy cop movie ever.

That sounds like the worst buddy cop movie ever.

It sounds like the basic concept for RUSH HOUR albeit with different races...so yeah, I guess it does sound like the worst buddy cop movie ever.

It's a fictional racial slur in a fictional universe, so political correctness doesn't apply. Are you off of your meds again or something?

What was "Muties" about, anyways.

I think it just followed around tales of mutants and maybe violence against mutants. Issue #1 was pretty cool.

Yeah, they were all done-in-one tales. This was in the Morrison days when the mutant population really florished. Day in the life type stuff, all using characters never seen before.

I only remember the first issue (pretty good, I won't spoil the twist for you) and vaguely one about some kid playing with toys. And I think one set in an african village of some sort involving a speedster.
