Curse of the Mutants
The Heroic Age reaches the X-Men in the first storyline of the new X-Men series. Vampires from around the globe descend on San Francisco, seeking to add the mutant race to their ranks.
X-MEN VS. VAMPIRES, REALLY?
So X-MEN VOLUME 4 #1 is set to come out this July. "Mutants Versus Vampires" is the title of the arc and I am wondering if Marvel is trying to cash in on this (dwendeling?) cash-cow that is vampire tales. The August solicits have revealed that BLADE is going to be teaming up with the X-Men to, I guess, battle vampires. What do you loyalists think of this direction with the X-Men?
Didn't the X-teams just deal with SELENE, the psychic vampire? I know it's not the same thing really, but still, I'm not sure if that is a good way to kick-off the apparent fourth volume. I'd figure if you were going to start another X-Men on-going, you would want to maybe have it be along the lines of fallout from Second Coming, not a war with vamps.
Maybe this just means they're gonna start fighting classic enemies. They've fought Dracula a couple times in the past
Yeah I smell a possible on-going that suddenly turns into a mini-series, like S.W.O.R.D., but it's got to be better than that. That series was a dissapointment.
there is no more enemies 2 fight due to m-day and or killing and maiming , if anyone hasnt read any of wolverines origin book that accounts to like 5 x-villians dead
the brotherhood is either dead ,reformed, or just gone, magneto is good... again . there isnt anything the current x-men cant really do unless they just show em playing poker or doing that video journal
thing they did during one of the second coming books ,i gave up on the x-men lol sad but true , with shadowland coming out in july , and the current x-force im good .
I could be an exscuse to find a way to bring Blade back in the comics. He and Gambit had history. So did he and Wolverine.
"Marvels vampires never sparkled to begin with LOL (plus they had them out before twilight was invented)I Will Never read a Marvel Comic again if those Damn Vampires Sparkle... AT ALL.

True, But if they ever think of Going along with a more Twilightier version of their Vampires, All Humanity will lose all reason.
It does sound good I like the dark tone X Men has been doing for a while. Hopefully Jubilee doesn't get killed off because she becomes a vampire.
" I was surprised when I heard about it. Vampires Vs the X-men...It might turn out to be a good read. "Yea right! like Secret Invasion?
" @MoonstoneEvil said:Possibly. I'll save my judgement until I actually read it." I was surprised when I heard about it. Vampires Vs the X-men...It might turn out to be a good read. "Yea right! like Secret Invasion? "
I'm trying to give this the benefit of the doubt too - at least the X-Men won't be whining about being downtrodden mutants for a while!
