Comics New X-Men: Academy X

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah. I don't care much about Pixie but if they have Pixie, Match, and Anole be B-list NXMers; I'd love that. I'm also not sure where Elixir fits in either.

 

[usagicassidy]

Elixir honestly needs to get OUT of the C-list and back into the A-list. Frankly, Rockslide should be a B-lister like Anole and Pixie.

Also...now I have to pick up New Warriors...I'm so exited to find out what's been going on with Sofia!

 

[Colossal Spoons]

You know, I didn't care about Sofia until I read the OLD New Mutants series(where they introduced the characters)

 

[gothicFLAVOURS]

Yay! I'm going to pick New Warriors to see Sofia again. I just hope Grevioux will do a good job with her and Paco Medina is great.

Anyways, this Rockslide cover is amazing, too The Thing - Human Torch, but I guess that's what they were looking for

 

[JewishHobbit]

I can totally see him and Rockslide getting closer and refuring to themselves as the Young FF (in mockery of the Young Avengers and New FF from the 90's). I think that'd be cute.

Also, I wouldn't get too excited about Sofia yet. I could be wrong but I thought the writer said that there'd be no old characters involved, only new ones. I could be wrong though, hope I am.

 

[Mogwai]

Definately. This title is phenominal and one of the books that I look forward to the most each month. Definately give it a shot.

i definitely will. it's really looking like something i'd like.

 

[usagicassidy]

True, true. That's definitely how I felt too.

 

[AndThePickles]

True, true. That's definitely how I felt too.

I think that's how most of us felt.

Agree, get Elixer back on the main team! I lke pixie and match....not so hot on the green dude.

 

[Havok83]

so glad to see that Sofia is back! Wish it were with the New X-men but I'll take what I can get

 

[Kevin]

Think they'll kill her...?

 

[Valechan]

New Warriors used to have a young girl named Mikey who had this armor that could create wind. There have been pics of a new armor girl named "Wondra". Sofia as a mutant used to control the wind. Could it be??? I hope so... I'll read issue 1 and if my favorite new x-man returns to the fold there I'll buy it with glee

As to the New X-Men themselves. I always liked Pixie (visually, cause she has said like 2 words in all her appearences), so I hope she remains on the team. Rockslide is completely uninteresting to me and should die like Charcoal from the T-Bolts Anole rocks, all teams should have a token gay character

 

[usagicassidy]

Especially those green, reptillian, long-tounged token gay characters!

 

[Kevin]

Hey, Hey, Hey, keep it rated G in here.t:

 

[Havok83]

The other students never interested me. It was all about the New Mutants and to a lesser extent the Hellions. Im surprised that the other students have the following they have given they are underdeveloped and either dont have much personality or havent done anything significant. Victor is the exception of course

 

[Colossal Spoons]

I'm glad we don't have to read about Gambit's crew on flunkies anymore.

 

[Havok83]

I'm glad we don't have to read about Gambit's crew on flunkies anymore.

Milligan's gone so hopdeully they won pop up again

 

[usagicassidy]

Thank god. I hated them all. Bling and Onyxx are still popin around, darn them...

 

[Czar Colossus]

So Sofia is around....pretty cool. Cover looks great also. Should be pretty fun, I wonder what Colossus' involvement will be.

If he's not involved in a story about Illyana, that will be Bull****!

 

[Specter313]

Here's how Marvel describes the issue:'

"'Quest of Magik,' prologue. Artist Niko Henrichon joins Paco Medina for a special prelude to the New X-Men adventure of the year. It's story time for the New X-Men, and Blindfold is spinning them a tale that will plunge the students of the Xavier Institute into a hell (or is that Limbo?) they cannot imagine. And what does this have to do with House of M and Illyana Rasputin? Everything!"

New X-Men #37 will be 32 pages and will cost $2.99.

 

[Kevin]

Are those all covers or part of the issue? if it's part of the issue, I don't like it all that much. it's not bad, but not what I rather.

EDIT: Actually, it's quite beautiful if you really look at it.

 

[AndThePickles]

Beautiful art. I Wikipedia'd Magik and she's a VERY interesting character. I wish she had a mini or something that I could read.

 

[Mogwai]

i'm excited to jump on this title. i've been reading up on the characters and can't wait to see more of skottie young's art. so, surge is the leader? from an outsider's viewpoint, i thought it would've been hellion (for stereotypical comic reasons).

 

[gothicFLAVOURS]

Wow, those pages are beautiful. And that's the Illyana from House of M, I'm glad they brought her back

 

[usagicassidy]

So, lets see if I remember correctly...basically we have Rockslide, Blindfold, Pixie, Matchstick, and Anole who go into limbo, as far as we know. And Hellion, Surge, and Elixir are still on earth. I wonder if the storyline will be a dual storyline or if they'll just concentrate mostly on the kids in limbo. Either way, I'm so excited for Anole and Pixie to be important!
