It's the 50th Anniversary of the X-Men. So of course Marvel has a cross over event planned this year. This one is X-Men: Battle of the Atom. I love the X-Men so I can't wait to see how this event shapes up. I probably won't pick up all the titles. Personally I think it's great that we will have more time travel involved. The X-Men from the past have already arrived in the present with some help from Beast. Now the X-Men from the future will also arrive in the present. Time travel is something I love. Whether it's a time travel movie, TV show, book or comic count me in.
But I wonder if all this time travel and 2 or 3 of the same X-Men running around will be too much for most people. I even explained this to a friend of mine who used to read X-Men comics back in the day and he thought that Marvel might be going a little overboard with all the time travel. I'm not even sure how much hype/excitement there is for this event. I think a lot of people are enjoying All New X-Men. But I don't know if that excitement will carry over to X-Men: Battle for the Atom or not.
