seems pretty straightforward for an xmen story

That didn't involve time travel or even one alternate reality. That's easy mode.

Yeah, no secret Summers family drama. Seems like about as simple as it gets.

Speaking of....Vulcan is in that X-Men graphic. All those X-Books are looking pretty good. New Mutants especially.

It's probably the best thing Lobdell's worked on for whatever low bar that sets.

Parallax posted:was generation x ever any good? It was good for a lot of its run, and it when it was firing on all cylinders it was great. I mean, it's an X-book so there's unevenness there, and admittedly it's been a few years since I've read it, but up until Ellis took over the book I have nothing but affection for it.

Parallax posted:was generation x ever any good? I think that it's fantastic up until Bachalo leaves the series, and okay for a bit after then. But he added so much to the book that made it stand out. And yeah, it's probably Lobdell's best work.

Reading through the Simonson era of Thor on MU and I guess they only use the digital colour versions during the Ragnarok story era. The issues now are in the original colouring and are so much better.

I haven't seen it if so.

https://twitter.com/Marvel/status/1153782996295544834?s=19 This could be good, unfamiliar with the main writer, but backups by Kelly Thompson and Leah Williams is good. Storm, Invisible Woman and Captain Marvel is a hilariously overpowered team if they're written anywhere near their peak.

It's funny that I was skimming Silver Surfer Black for Tradd Moore's art and saw that it pegged the first fight between Silver Surfer and SENSATIONAL CHARACTER FIND KNULL, THE DARK GOD OF DARK SYMBIOTES as taking place "billions of years ago" and "at the dawn of time" which didn't really make sense given everything established about Galactus and the Silver Surfer (that Norrin Radd was part of a long-lived but not immortal advanced space-faring race before becoming Galactus's herald, that Galactus was a firmly established legend/galactic threat before touching down on Zenn-La, that Norrin's non-cosmic girlfriend was still alive as of a few years ago, that Galactus went a long time without a herald, that Silver Surfer wasn't even his first herald, etc. etc.) and so it was nice for Waid to pin down Norrin becoming the Silver Surfer some time between 1459 and 1720 today.

I'm not seeing it at all. The coloring, heavy use of negative space, (and characters, admittedly) reads as Nick Dragotta to me, if anything.

The exclamation mark thing irks me. Probably because people who do it seem to talk strictly in TVTropes when discussing things.

It's revealed that Silver Surfer once encountered Klyntar during his time as Herald but didn't know what it was. The symbiotes were all already afraid of him. That's because right now he's been trapped in a black hole and is in the past where he battles Knull and that's why the symbiotes were already afraid of him during that visit. The battle at the dawn of time is taking place in Silver Surfer's present.

I'm curious how/whether this was coordinated with Hickman, because it seems likely that Powers of X will introduce some sort of major retcon(s) to X-history that may or may not be represented here.
