Dude, I liked Uncanny X-Men way more than I have liked most issues of it. I'm not sure why, I can't put my finger on any reason why I liked it. In WatX, was that Hellion with Rockslide and Idie who were the only X-students who defended the school? I can't believe Anole would let Rockslide go without him. I just dropped X-Men, but I will need to pick it back up if there is a Rockslide/Anole teamup.

I want to like X-Force. I thought Fantomex's bad french would be a tipoff. But the Fantomex said "le infiltration" and Betsy corrected him to "la infiltration." Is that supposed to mean his French is bullshit? I ask because it should really be "l'infiltration". I'm just a little confused, and Fantomex's accent is the one thing really putting me off of the book.

Diet Poison posted:I honestly kept forgetting I was reading an X-book until the end. I noticed Nemesis' first appearance but Cable and Marrow went right over my head. Other X-news this week: Kid Apocalypse and Quentin Quire showed up in Deadpool, it was pretty funny, but also kind of sweet (which has been Deadpool's tone for a while). I hated they way they were both drawn, but oh well. I really enjoyed X-Men and was surprised. Then I realized there was a new writer. I meant to drop it after the Rockslide/Anole back up ended, but I'm glad I didn't . Speaking of Rockslide, I wasn't expecting him to show up in Amazing, but I loved that too. Uncanny/All-New haven't been my jam lately, but now everything else is shaping up.

Stagger_Lee posted:Yeah, Magik doesn't have a lot of solo focus, but just reading that Claremont New Mutants run will get you a lot of her and also a lot of really good comics. The run with Sienkiewicz on art (Demon Bear, etc.) are some of my favorite comics. Magik: Storm & Illyana New Mutants (She doesn't show up until New Mutants Classic Volume 2, but it might be worth it to just start with New Mutants Classic Volume 1) A few people on here have talked about New Mutants being their favorite superhero run, and I think I agree - lasts until Classic Volume 7 I think, and you could probably skip from there to: X-Men Inferno - kind of a Magik centric event, not the best comic, but I didn't hate it New X-Men Quest for Magik (Collected in New X-Men Childhood's End Volume 5 (wow this is selling for a lot on Amazon, not terribly important)) New Mutants Volumes 1-3 by Zeb Wells - Also really, really good, probably better if you have read New Mutants classic Fear Itself X-Men (Unlike New Mutants and New X-Men bad art, but still good, really, really fun) Uncanny X-Men Volume 1-4 (by Kieron Gillen) (Really good, continuation from Fear Itself X-Men) Avengers versus X-Men Consequences kind of finishes Gillen's Uncanny X-Men and sets up: Uncanny X-Men (Brian Michael Bendis) - coming out right now, I'm not the biggest fan of it Edit: Volumes 1-3 of New Mutants by Zeb Wells, not DnA!

RevKrule posted:The new New Mutants from 2009 starts with Zeb Wells bringing back Illyana. It's some of the best X comics of the past 5 years. He goes all out on it and really gets in touch with the characters. This run also brings back Legion and starts his fixing process.

RevKrule posted:The Dan and Andy New Mutants isn't bad like I said, it's just a huge quality step down from Wells who knocks it out of the park. And again, one of my fave issues is the Magma date issue (one of the best one and dones in recent memory). However, they don't deal as much with Illyana and her poo poo, the more deal with team dynamic and missions.

Was the last time we saw Exodus he was in the X-Men's Utopia jail? He's clearly not there any more since Danger was controlled by Unit/no one is at Utopia, but how does that lead to him working for S.H.I.E.L.D.? Has he ever done anything other than Brotherhood stuff before? I'm just curious, I really don't know much about him. Also for New Mutants fans, big life update to Cannonball in today's Avengers, and the Sunspot/Cannonball moments were fun, as they always are in Avengers.

Waterhaul posted:Real world or not, actually switching peoples sexuality by mind control would be a million times worse than anything Bendis could write. And I'm not going into a people should or shouldn't be offended, that's for people to decide themselves. I don't have a problem with an established character being gay. I have a problem with 2 versions of a character that are supposed to be the same person, and they have wildly different sexualities.

Tyma posted:Any recommendations for a run with some good Illyana stories? I've gone back and read her origins, but I don't like the 1980s 'characters narrate to themselves all the time' style of storytelling, so I'm hoping to read some of her more modern stuff.

twistedmentat posted:From what I got from X-men, is that Scott knows Rachael is his daughter from an alternative timeline, but him being Scott Summers, has no ability to talk about it with her. Not that he's around that much, I mean, he's off with Maddy for most of Rachael's appearance then with X-factor.

Wheat Loaf posted:It's a proud X-Men tradition, going back to the days when Xavier would go, "To me, my X-Men! Cerebro has detected a mutant who will surely be our most deadly challenge yet!" then it turned out to be Blob or the Vanisher or Unus the Untouchable.

Unmature posted:Comic writers are usually hired to write a thing rather than buying a script from someone. And if they're pitching to a publisher they have to have an artist with some finished art in the pitch. At least with all the submission guidelines I've seen.

Nightcrawler kissed Rachel Grey once. That was weird, and everyone forgot about it like everything else Claremont did when he came back. I forgot that Firestar and Cannonball had a thing, I guess Cannonball just had a thing with a lot of ladies. Also Legion and Blindfold's relationship is forgotten by most people!
