This is a continuation thread, the old thread is [split]454787[/split]
So who here has read Magneto: Testament? I found it chilling. They mentioned they worked with survivors to try and recreate the atmosphere from the camps. I found it worked very well.
I think Im all caught up to Uncanny and damn, I feel really bad for Dazzler. I forgot that Mystique was her main villain from WAY back in her old series so its interesting to see Mystique target her again. I really hope Ali is able to get some vengeance on her for what she's done when she is back
Xavier and Wolverine have [BLACKOUT]kids that are half siblings. [/BLACKOUT]This mess sounds like an episode of Maury. I dont get why they were brought back to 616 and so soon. I see that Carey used them as well in that No More Humans graphic novel.Bendis strikes again
I'm only up to issue 3 of that title but I'm still optimistic about it. The first 2 issues were ok and it's been slowly showing more progress. I'm not fond of how he's writing Marrow though. She was one of my favorite characters from the 90s and I don't understand where this whole "baby" attitude is coming from. It's really annoying.How are people liking X-Force?
I like that Cable is the leader, only he and Wolverine can pull off X-Force lead. Storm did not fit at all for X-Force. She's better leading the X-Men.
I think the X-Force team roster is really good this time: Pyslocke (X-Force staple), Fantomex (ditto), and Dr. Nemesis are really great characters.
Wild card for the team this time is Marrow. Not a fan, but like the deranged take they have on her this time.

Was No More Humans any good? I'm hesitant to pick it up because I'm not really a Larocca fan anymore and I've lost a lot of respect for Carey's writing ever since 'Legacy' had become the 'Rogue is the greatest character in the world' title.
Some dude at the comic book store told me I should read Earth X because it kinda tossed out some stuff that Marvel is using in current continuity though at the time it was pretty wild as far as ideas go. Is this true? Should I read it anyhow?
Im all caught up on ANX and even in death, Marvel continues to tarnish Xavier even in death. The mother of his future kid from the BotA crossover was revealed and its none other than [blackout]Mystique. Apparently she and Xavier slept together about 2 years ago and he impregnated her. She did this while wearing a Moira guise. Now, I dont think it was revealed that he knew it was Mystique but considering Moira is dead, he had to have known he was screwing a shape shifter and with this being before the X-gene was reactivated, the number of likely candidates was pretty low.[/blackout]

Very annoying. And Fantomex not actually being French? Tres triste!
Wasn't that already established way back with Morrison?

When it comes to this stuff, it's not just him. Every writer (including Claremont's first run) had people swapping off romantically left and right. It needs to stop because it leads to more and more continuity headaches.
