I've been doing some re-reading of the old X-titles and I really have a deep dislike for Whedon's run after his first arc, not to mention Cassaday's awful artwork. The only good thing that came out of Cassaday's pencil was Emma Frost's lipgloss. Pretty much his run was the beginning of taking a dump on Xavier and kicking him out of the X-universe.
I will admit I didn't like the fact that Xavier was made to be a bad guy in this run, but I still enjoyed this run.
@Rabbitearsblog: They need all of these X-books not only for the money, but characters need to shine. Where would Pixie be if she wasn't in X-Men?
What about all the New Mutants if they didn't have their own title. We need all the X-books we can get as long as they don't push the 8 book limit. What we should be asking for is more variety on the teams.
THIS!!!^^^^ Count them! TWO Hank McCoys, TWO Bobby Drakes, and the cast from WatXM!!!
Feh...! I'm don, seriously. I'm just slugging it through AvX then after that I'm taking a much-needed breather from Marvel comics.
Me too. It's going to be indie comics for me for awhile after this.
Yes, comic book movies tend to be more popular than the actual comic because many fans who might be interested in the comic book might get a little overwhelmed by so much material in the comics. The movies are often quicker and easier to deal with and you can actually see the action being put on screen rather than seeing the action being drawn out in the comics.
