stupid bonus book...means the cover price gets jacked up a dollar.

[El Bastardo]

Yeah. One, what sense does it make to stick an Iron Man title in with X-Force. Two, oh good, now I can read issue 3 when I've not bothered to read 1 or 2, on account of the fact I do not purchase it, because I clearly do not desire to read it.

With the events of FEAR ITSELF causing worldwide panic, Jonathan Standish and his cell of rogue Purifiers look to take their murderous mission to the next level. Believing superheroes have brought about the end of the world, just how many innocents can these Purifiers kill? How many 'souls' can they save from the devil? And where will they strike next? If ever there was a group worthy of X-Force's lethal talents, this is it. But is there a grain of truth hidden in Standish's askew thinking?

[javi1024]

is the dark angel saga and AoA thing the same story? and will this cross with any other book?

[JewishHobbit]

I think it is and no, I don't think it crosses over with anything.

And please let Dark Beast join the team!

[javi1024]

that would be pretty messed up if he actually joined. thats a line im pretty sure even this new take-charge Logan wouldnt cross.

[Havok83]

The team needs more females. I'd add in Domino or Magik. Threnody would be an awesome choice especially since lineup pretty much would be a constant power source for her

[El Bastardo]

I'm dreading this whole thing. I really hope Remender's wise enough to know how much of a ****-job that whole 10th Anniversary AoA mini was some years back, and knows not to reference it too much.

[BoredGuy]

At this point, I'm supremely confident in Remender to handle it well.

[El Bastardo]

I'm not nay-saying. Remender is currently the best talent they have on the X-books, and one of the best talents at Marvel.

They should have him on Uncanny, not Gillen.

How about all three?

You know something really wrong when Deadpool is the voice of reason.....

[The Morningstar]

Those narration boxes are Wolverines. Pretty stupid choice of colour though, considering Deadpools there.

[EvilClareToo]

Ahhhh, I wasn't referring to the narration boxes, rather Deadpool's actual comments.
Someone give the guy his 10 bucks!

[El Bastardo]

**** yes, Mark Brooks.

[Havok83]

I didnt recognize that as Brooks till I read the solict. Man has his art changed. It looks alot less manga inspired than his earlier work. The inking and coloring thats gone along with this is also noticeably darker than what he's used to. I like this style and it works for here, but Im not sure Id like it elsewhere over his older style

[El Bastardo]

Sounds awesome.

But why is Psylocke riding on Wolverine's back in the Bianchi cover?

[Colossal Spoons]

I'm assuming Genocide is related to Holocaust somehow?

[Havok83]

I didnt realize there was a Fear Itself mini for UXF. When does the first issue come out or did it already?

[BoredGuy]

ugh, hate Bianchi's art...and sorry to Rob Williams, but there's no way that story can live up to what remender's been doing

and yeah, I'd assume Genocide is some version of Holocaust
I think they mentioned that he'd be showing up in a different form in one of the interviews, idk
