It's better. During that crossover there is an issue if x-factor that did not have any members of X-factor in it

Rick posted:Xavier already has another body that as far as I can tell they never did anything with. His body at death was a clone that the Shi'Ar made for him and it's never mentioned what happened to his original body. And that body would be sick and also World War 2 old so they could kill him off again in the next event and start this all over again. The brood destroyed it

I've now got an entire Uncanny #147-330 run, plus the two Days of Future past issues, a few raggedy random issues before that and a CGC graded 8.5 Giant Size X-Men #1. Please send help.

Diet Poison posted:Well then allow me to be the first you hear of it. More "representation" bullshit because the AU fakepeople immigrating into our good honest real world aren't buying comics at the same rate as good honest realworlders. Maybe I'd buy more comics if all my TAXES weren't going into the pocket of some rear end in a top hat named Ultimate Todd who won't shut up about how much of a better job President Marilyn Manson was doing back where he came from. It's an usual mojo story aka awful

twistedmentat posted:Yea, I always felt Logans obsession with Jean was super creepy and not cool. Like even loving Hawkeye got over Wanda eventually, but its seen as some tragic romance, even thought its really clear Jean wants to be with Scott and that's that. They at least let Scott have other relationships, let Jean have some. Maybe she can date like, I dunno, Sam Wilson or Hercules. Hercules belongs with Wolverine

Wheat Loaf posted:Out of all comics, of course not, but I think for one of the three main X-Men team books in 2002 (?) you could argue that it was pushing the envelope at least a little bit for what you could put in a mainstream superhero comic from a Big Two publisher. At the end of the day, this is the story that had a panel of Storm chained up naked in a dungeon with a bit between her teeth while a mutant in a leather bodice is straddling her from behind using her ability to cause pleasure so intense it becomes painful on her. How could you forget this is the same time as Chuck Austin’s crime of an x-men run. How

Nothing in uncanny really grabbed me and the uncanny team looks boring (writer,artist,cast) I hope there will be another book announced with characters like rockslide and co. They are a focus so either it’s going to spin off into something or they are all going to be killed. Right now the only x titles worth anything are red and gambit/rogue

I mean, I wouldn't put it past Rosenberg's crap to use her on Uncanny despite being on Age of X-Man, but I guess there must be more to that than just a lazy editor and a bad writer. I assume it will be Dani in Age of x-man is false and made by Nate since they dated
