Now i know how the Avengers fans felt when he overstayed his welcome. And the nightmare is only just beginning. This is absolutely disgusting more so than it is embarrassing. Going from the likes of Claremont/Lee/Lobdell/Smith/Simonson/Casey...to detritus hacks like Aaron and Bendis at the helm of a franchise they've no clue of. Awful. bloody awful. The sooner these two leave with their contrived, half-hearted, childish "stories", the better.
Yeah - "Oh my Gosh you're freaking out." "Oh my Gosh i'm freaking out." "Oh my Gosh everybody's freaking out." "Sandwiches."
Or even - "Dude, are you even listening?" "Yeah, listening" "So you're like, totally, seriously, listening to me right now?" "Totally, seriously, listening" "Alright, so i was listening to this..."
No thanks. There's nothing compelling about dialogue that takes several interlocking speech-bubbles which consist of the same asinine "subject" being passed to and fro to progress an inconsequential "plot". Worse when the characters sound exactly the same, save for if they're different genders. That's not interesting. That's not intriguing. And that's not what i want to see at the head of a franchise i care about, but sadly, that's the truth, and evidently, people are buying into this.
At least the majority of something entertaining to look forward to every couple of weeks :).
Who knew the return of the "real" Jean Grey would be so damn cliched. And who knew this is what Cyclops and crew would reduce themselves to. Disappointing.
His writing is dirt.
