Warning: May contain satire. Users are advised not to take seriously
Dorian mentions that the title of the new Marvel clusterfu...er "crossover event" House of M reminded him off the title of a Parker Posey film (I think he means this one). While it might be funny to see Scarlet Witch go around in a Jackie O outfit, I think the name of this crossover reminds me of something much more sinister.
Imagine it. After work Joe Quesada, Axel Alonso and Tom Brevoort need somewhere to go after a hard day at work. Their particular job requires them to work with personalities like J. Michael Straczynski and Mark Millar so you can imagine how stressed they are when the day is done. Sure, they like a good drink as much has the next guy but they don't work just anywhere. They work at Marvel and therefore need something a bit more to take the weight of the world off their shoulders.
That's when they head on over to a building on the West Side that one can see Wall Street jockeys entering into oh so discreetly. Inside is a world of dark, erotic wonders. Mistress Wundagore greets you with a prompt order of "on your knees, slave!" From there whatever she says goes. Handcuffs, spanking and a special harness now called "The Mont" after a particularly enthusiastic fan of the device from decades past. If anything gets too painful, patrons are encouraged to use the safe word "Modok." The receptionist inside tells you where you are as soon as you step in: "Welcome to the House of M."
It was one night after a particularly sensuous evening that Brevoort turned to the EIC and said "Joe, I think I've got a name for that new clusterfu...er 'crossover event' we've been trying to cook up." Quesada couldn't actually say anything through the ball gag but a look into his eyes revealed that he knew exactly what his old pal meant. And there wonder was born.
