This book seriously reads like fan-fiction. That Rogue/Carol fight had the dumbest ending ever. Carey must be writing for Gage.

 

[Cardshark]

Yeah i've disliked this title for a while, to much Mary Sue for me.

Edit: Just read it's been cancelled.

 

[BoredGuy]

Hurray!
Hope they don't hitch Rogue and Magneto before it ends..

 

[javi1024]

Yup this, along with Uncanny cmad and New Mutants will be ending after AVX. Why couldn't they include Astonishing and Adjectiveless...

Im quickly losing faith in Marvel. They seemed to largely get things right last year with the Schism reboots, but now I have no idea what the heck they are thinking

 

[Jake Cassidy]

WATXM and UXF are still going. I like Wood on X-Men too. Hopefully he sticks around. I'm OK with things, so far.

I have to agree. At the moment our X-line up is:

Wolverine and the X-Men (yay!)
Uncanny X-Force (double yay!)
All New X-Men (which I'm not entirely sold on)
Astonishing X-Men (I gave up on years ago)
X-Men (which under Wood I still don't care about)

plus X-Factor and what Wolverine books are out there.

My pull list just got a alot smaller. Add to the fact I have no idea what's going on with the Avengers and their 20 books, I don't know what books I'll be buying come October. Now I wish I was going to Comic Con this year so I could sit in on the Marvel NOW panel to hear them explain it all in front of 500 pissed off fans.

Keeping the 2 worst ones? Smart

That article is infuriating. I read like 90% of those titles. My pull list just took a big hit.

Gambit and X-Treme X-Men are starting soon, too. That's 9 X-books. There'll probably be a couple of others to replace the ones we lost.

 

[Havok83]

X-treme looks like its something to pass on. Gambit however is intriguing as thats a title Ive wanted for years

 

[Jake Cassidy]

I'll try X-Treme. I love Dazzler.

 

[El Bastardo]

As long as Gillen doesn't make it onto X-Force or WatXM, I'll be happy.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

Who could take over X-Force?

 

[Colossal Spoons]

^Let Aaron write UXF too, now that Incredible Hulk is ending.

X-Treme reminds me of Exiles, so I'll def check it out.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

Good idea.

 

[BoredGuy]

Gillen on Astonishing could be fun, cuz he's good with those to-the-side-of continuity stories
But Liu just started, so she needs some time to breathe on the title I guess.

Made my decison to drop it that much easier, lol.

Legacy is the only one on that list for me. Not much of a cutback, lol.

 

[Generation Lee]

Well in all honesty I feel that both Legacy & NM have lost a lot in recent times. They may need to be rested. But seriously I like Uncanny at the minute no need to ex it this flipping soon.

X-MEN LEGACY #275
CHRISTOS GAGE (W) • DAVID BALDEON (A)
Cover by MARK BROOKS
Final Issue Variant Also Available
THE END OF AN ERA!
• Last issue, Magneto made Rogue a daunting offer. In this FINAL ISSUE of X-MEN: LEGACY, Rogue faces the repercussions of her decision!
32 PGS./Rated T+ …$2.99

 

[Havok83]

My goodness the last Legacy was the worst one since Gage took over. Its strictly a solo Rogue story with her placed on a warring world of cat and bug people and having to fend for herself. No really thats the plot.

 

[Generation Lee]

This revamp my live up to the name Legacy. Hated the last issue Rogue recently fought bug people that controlled your mind when she went to get Polaris and co back.

 

[javi1024]

I'll be glad when this book finally ends. On a sidenote, that cover up there, is there ANY book where Beast was worn that Village People costume? He looks horrible.

 

[OutcryX]

Kitty can fly?
