X-Men - Part 6

[Avenging Angel]

I wouldn't waste money on death of Wolverine, it's pretty lackluster. I haven't read X-Men 92 yet.

The complete opposite of what I heard about it locally. But yeah there's 4 issues alone. Maybe I could check out a snippet scan before deciding to buy it. 92 is great.

 

[Mad Ones]

didn't read the whole list, but I definitely agree with number 1
the X-Men at their best (New X-men, Astonishing, Uncanny X-Force) are simply as good as superhero comics get
s'why I wish so badly that I felt the same about the films

Sorry you feel that way. The first two movies made me a fan in the first place and I'm proud that DOFP continued that quality. You should read their write-up on the Inhumans

lol, just read it, sad to say I got a good chuckle out of the "making fetch happen" line
it's too true, the Inhumans are a poor man's X-Men (as a replacement for mutants at least) they were only ever interesting because of the royal family aspect

and note to Marvel: Blackbolt's a badass because he's silent, no talking in the movie!

ps. I loved X1 and X2 as well, and while I thought DOFP was good, I also didn't think it's the be-all and end-all like some people talk about it

 

[Mad Ones]

I just don't know about the Inhumans. As characters I find them as alienating as Attilan. I mean... Medusa has telepathic control over her very long hair. That's lame. But I'm speaking from a place of complete ignorance.

They pretty much have stolen the X-men's formula. I don't want to buy into the conspiracy theories, but the X-men had to share a panel at comic con with the Inhumans.

 

[Havok83]

Medusa has control over her hair, but I wouldnt call that telepathic. I mean her hair isnt its own character. Its like an extra limb. One wouldnt say a character has telepathic control over their fingers

Whoops. I meant telekinetic lol. But yeah, I see your point. That's still lame, though.

 

[Havok83]

IA. Overall they are a bit lame compared to other groups, especially X-men. I found them more interesting when there were just a few of them but they've lost their appeal since their numbers started blowing up. They work as this small isolated group and should never been in large numbers across the world as Marvel has been leading them to. Plus Crystal, one of the more interesting ones gets no love from Marvel these days, making me less interested in them.

 

[Mad Ones]

It looks like their stories will be intertwined moving forward. The terrigen mist is apparently harmful to mutants? Marvel's just using the X-men to promote the characters they have the movie rights to. They did the same with the Avengers.

 

[Sithborg]

If Inhumans prove to be able to support as many books as the X-books, then you can begin to worry. I mean, there are three? Inhuman books in the new line up (not counting Ms. Marvel). Whereas X-men have 5, not including the three Deadpool series.

 

[Sithborg]

Looks like Evan/Genisis/Kid Apocalypse and Oya are joining the All-New team. So, mixing the team up a bit from the originals.

 

[BoredGuy]

Eh I preferred Genesis ('Kid Apocalypse' is really dumb) with Broo, Idie, Quire, and Gladiator (also has a dumb 'kid' name)

boring ass o5 need to go the f*** home

 

[Colossal Spoons]

^Amen

All New X-men always came across as a Jean solo to me with the rest of the 05 as her supporting cast. She especially got lead focus bc she didnt have a 616 version of her around. Without her here, they seem even more pointless

 

[Mad Ones]

I agree that the O5 aren't appealing without Jean. That being said, I'll probably pick up ANXM because of Evan and Oya.

Speaking of Jean... Whaaaaat is with that cover with her and Old Man Logan?

he's older than normal and she's younger than normal. Looks creepy as hell. Im guessing she will become a sidekick to him much like Kitty and Jubilee in the past

Speaking of O5, I wonder what is up with Angel's wings. It looks like he has energy wings similar to what he had during the Twelve storyline

 

[BoredGuy]

yeah super creepy

Marvel: Hey Logan/Jean shippers? Yeah, you're all pedophiles now. So Sayeth Alonso.

 

[Mad Ones]

I'm thrilled that the Jean/Wolverine thing cannot happen anymore. But please don't make her Wolverine's sidekick. It's weeeeird. I loved how grossed out Jean was in ANXM when she met Logan for the first time.

 

[BoredGuy]

Coming up on the cartoon and Morrison's run and being a Wolvie fan, Wolverine will always beat Cyclops in my mind for Jean's affection

Dark Phoenix saga was way before my time so I have no love for Scott/Jean

but regardless, yeah, her being his sidekick would just be all kinds of awful

 

[Mad Ones]

X-men Evolution sort of indoctrinated me into the Jean/Scott pairing. But now I like Jean single, and Scott and Emma on-again-off-again.

 

[Sithborg]

Yeah, the cover of Extraordinary is creepy. But, they played up a few creepy thoughts in present Cyke.

I will say, I did enjoy All New a lot because it was nice to get younger Cyke instead of Cykeneto.

 

[Havok83]

so whatever happened to Hope? I was just reminded that Marvel played up the same material with her and Logan after she came into this timeline

 

[Mad Ones]

We don't talk about Hope...

Present day Cycke is the best Cyke!

 

[KevanG]

I like both Cyclops(es?). The current one, which I haven't read much about up to now has just basically told everyone to **** off and leave mutants alone. Or else.

The Past one had that thing with Havok, the Summers Brothers high five. That was freaking adorable. I've read a lot of X-Men books with Cyclops being my favorite X-Man and I wish they had done that a long time ago.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

I never stopped liking Cyclops, as unpopular of an opinion as that is.

Speaking of O5, I wonder what is up with Angel's wings. It looks like he has energy wings similar to what he had during the Twelve storyline

Warren, Gamora, Kitty, and Groot kept their power upgrades from the Black Vortex crossover a few months ago.

I didnt know they kept them. I still havent read the final issue. I didnt like that crossover at all. The JG trial was better
