So is the most recent issue of X-Men an unsolicited tie-in for that Empyre crossover or did it just coincidentally show up in the lead up to it?

also Broo and Oya rule and it's good to see them again

Probably a little of both. The Shi'ar where always going to be involved in Hickman's X-Men, might as well through some Kree in as well.

Open Marriage Night: Sep 18, 2009; "Do you want to talk to a spider, Peter?"

House of X and Powers of X in the designated reading order. Usually they trade off every other issue, but there�s a couple where they do two issues before going to the other book.

Then X-Men, New Mutants, Marauders, and whatever else

Cable was a lot of fun, surprisingly enough.

House of X and Powers of X should be read alternating (roughly - start with HoX and there's a read order in each issue). Then X-Men/Marauders/New Mutants/Excalibur/X-Force/Fallen Angels all start. Read whichever interests you.

Wait hold on. In Marauders 8 did we finally see the Iceman teleport (a referenced power in Age of Apocalypse that I don�t think made it on page) for the first time in 616? Or was that via some other means?

The latest X-Men issue is super fun. I'm a little surprised we're delving into War of Kings territory so heavily, but I don't know why I'm surprised because it was a pretty big deal at the time and changed Shi'ar and Kree status quo a lot, not to mention the part Vulcan played.

And don't tease me with that mention of Black Bolt, Hickman. I need him and the rest of the Inhumans to show up in this series. I thrill for that confrontation.

He's done it a rare few times in recent memory, actually. It happened in the Sina Grace Iceman series, issue five. Probably a couple other times I don't remember; it's one of those things that only come up when a writer actually knows Iceman canon really well. :v:

But I don't think he's actually teleporting away in Marauders #8? He wouldn't be able to take Bishop with him, after all. It looks like they're being beamed away somehow, probably by Emma's ship. It's not too clear.

I remember War of Kings being as well received as a shart in church so that might be why you stayed away. It was a real let down since it followed after Annihilation and Conquest and then the Cancerverse came after.

Who's the blue dude next to Penance (who I guess started going by Hollow at some point)? It's in the fold for my comic so I can't even get a good look at him.

I'd be near-certain that Anole isn't old enough to drink, let alone tend bar, but then I remember this is Krakoa so legal drinking age is, like, European at the very least. They probably let ten year olds vape.

So at what point does Beast acting like a wild unfettered rear end in a top hat become...a little bit out of character? It feels like that's just all he is nowadays and it's not as if we can blame Percy for following up on precedent, but is there no longer any upper limit on how big an rear end in a top hat Hank McCoy can be before we can be like, "Yikes, that feels less like his characterization and more like a hack job"?

He's nowhere near Dark Beast territories so he can go quite a bit farther and still be on the side of the angels.
