Glad I'm not the only person who wants this title to go away

[Havok83]

Lol that's how I felt about it when it was released. Still don't see why it needs to exist. It seems rather irrelevant compared to the other X-Men titles. Don't read it and don't feel like I'm missing anything. I'd can it and give the title back to Legacy, if that does stop being a Rogue centric book as mentioned

[JewishHobbit]

Before it was basically X-Men team-up but Brian Wood says he's not going that route so now it's just redundant. But at least it has it's own, mostly unique cast.

I knew it wasn't for me after the 3rd vampire arc

[javi1024]

I'm almost set on dropping Rogue Legacy too. I might wanna see how the Ms. Marvel arc plays out, but I'm tired of trying to care about that book, spending the $2.99 for it to sit at the bottom of my read pile where I eventually get to it days after I've read everything elseI bought that week. I'll look into it after the shift happens next year.

Hey, there were only two vampire arcs thank you! And a single issue somewhere in the middle.

Has this title got better yet?

[Jake Cassidy]

When was the last time you read it?

[BillPardy]

First two trades.

[Jake Cassidy]

That doesn't help me. Anyway, it's been very good since Brian Wood took over, imo.

[JewishHobbit]

Has it been? I only read the first issue of his run and it bored me so I dropped it. The newer solicits look pretty good though.

..oh..and Legion
