X-Men - Part 2

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, they've probably always got one eye on sales, and X-comics (not including Wolverine's comics) have been hovering around the same sales for quite some time, haven't they?

 

[Panthro]

So Wolverine is the heir to Xavier's dream and Cyclops is following Magneto's? hell of a twist in terms of the big picture, I like it.

Sure, why not? More than half the world already thinks Wolvie's the heir to Xavier anyway.

Avengers: X-Saction #1 preview

The art looks awesome, as usual from Ed McGuinness.

 

[runawayboulder]

So Cable shows up out of nowhere? Another outstanding effort by Loeb.

And if anybody should kick the s**t out of Whirlwind it should be Pym.

 

[El Bastardo]

Just because something starts in medias res does not mean there won't be explanation.

What the **** is the point of *****ing off of four pages of preview?

 

[runawayboulder]

I just love knocking Loeb, it obviously gets under people's skin......

 

[Manic]

I wonder what reason will be given for Cable going to war with the entire Avengers. I know Loeb said previously that it had something to do with Hope.

Something tells me it'll be some cliched misunderstanding between heroes. It's always that or minor ideological differences blown out of proportion that cause superheroes to have a go at one another.

 

[El Bastardo]

I just love knocking Loeb, it obviously gets under people's skin......

I couldn't care less about Loeb. Anything I've read of his in recent years has been awful. Will this be more of the same? Time will tell.

But people ***** about the stupidest ****. Four preview pages? Really?

 

[runawayboulder]

So I guess you're the moral compass for this place? Whatevs dude....

 

[El Bastardo]

Who said anything about morals?

 

[runawayboulder]

Well, you're not a Loeb fan but yet you have critical something to say about what I post? It's a public forum, I can knock, Loeb, Bendis and anything Ultimate related if I want to (like I usually feel like doing) as long as I'm not breaking SHH rules. Obviously it's only 4 pages, I'm not blind. At the end of the day if I wanted to, I would have to spend $4 bucks for the book, which none of it ends up in your pocket, so what's the difference?

 

[El Bastardo]

 

[TheCorpulent1]

EB is a s***-starter. He starts s*** for fun. Ignore him and you'll be happier. Trust me, I know.

 

[runawayboulder]

I know, I've seen him do this before with other people.

 

[El Bastardo]

Oh, please.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Quit starting s***, EB.

 

[El Bastardo]

Go eat a hot dog.

(That might be a euphemism. )

 

[Dangerman]

This may be a dumb question but what has Professor X been up to lately and what was his role in the split? Also is it true that he can walk now?

To your first question, nothing and I dont think we know. He's pretty irrelevant in the X-universe. As for your second question, Xavier's been walking for years. He last regaiend the ability of his legs in Deadly Genesis back in 2005

 

[javi1024]

nothing. i think last we saw him he was butting heads with Cyclops and Magneto when he arrived on Utopia. since then he's just be a member of Cyclops' "cabinet" but rarely seen. he's said to make an appearance in the first Wolverine and the X-Men but he won't be a regular.

what if down the line he did join up with Logan? Hank would be the one running the school and Xavier could be strictly a teacher for the kids there. or maybe put him in a position in the government dealing with mutant affairs. maybe he could take Valerie Cooper's job.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

He should really go on walkabout. I'd love to see Chuck operating ten steps ahead of everyone else, content to let Cyclops (and now Wolverine, I guess) manage the X-Men while he does his own thing in the background.

like going to Australia and finding yourself? thats pretty much what Legacy started off as, and was much better.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, like going anywhere and doing cool stuff. I know that's how Legacy started. I really enjoyed those early issues with Chuck. Basically, what I was saying is that I want a Legacy-like series with Chuck again.

 

[Havok83]

Anyone else read Regenesis #1? I loved the issue and great set up for the new status quo

i dunno how IGN gave it a 6 (passable). talking about how it was scattered and only shouldve focused on the major characters' decisions? the whole reason for the book was seeing who everyone sided with so it wouldnt take up time once the new books start. i thought it was great.
