Uncanny X-Men is a comic being relaunched in February. I will be picking this comic up, at least the first issue, as I am impressed by Brian Michael Bendis` work on All New X-Men.

I do not plan on picking this comic up for very long. Why? The Outfits.

You yourself may seem fine with these costumes. I am not.

So let's go step by step with what is wrong with these costumes.

I'm not gonna lie, I really don't have a problem with Cyclops ` costume compared to the other two. Other than the fact that he has a giant X on his face, nothing is really wrong with it, and I'm aware of the fact that due to the events of Avengers Vs. X-Men he is mutating again.

Magneto survived the Holocaust. It's a vital part of his back story. It's the reason he thinks that mutants should take over, because he doesn't want them to experience what he has experienced. So can someone tell me why a man who is in his 80's looks like he has been doing steroids? Why is he so damn buff? I get he always looked like this, but the costume really emphasizes it now. Look at this Del Otto variant cover:

I get they are trying to make him look cool, but unless he somehow became younger or something, I'm not impressed.

Let's move onto everyone's favorite mutant, Emma Frost. Emma Frost's old look, with the white outfit and the cape, was absolutely fine. It wasn't so bad. This new costume though, is just horrible. Not only is contradictory to the whole "White Queen" thing, but it's also goes against what Marvel is doing for females in general.

Marvel is currently doing this whole female push in their books. With books such as Captain Marvel land Journey into Mystery on the shelves, a almost completely female X-Force book just released and Fearless Defenders and X-Men coming along in the next few months, they are showing off their female characters. Do you want to know what is a similarity with all of these characters? No one looks like their costumes were incomplete. Seriously, I think the designer was working on her outfit and went, "Eh this is good enough".

As for the other characters, I honestly don't know anything about them, nor do I plan to stick along with the book for a long enough time to want to know anything about them.

Magik's costume becomes a whole lot worse when you realize she's a teenage girl IIRC. 
Also, just noticed, but is Mags not wearing a shirt?

@Decoy Elite:

I want to say he is wearing a shirt, but that Del Otto cover says otherwise.

Which issue explains cykes new mutation hence the X-face?

I've heard about it from some interviews with Bendis, and from reading All New Xmen.

Oh, issue? All-New X-Men #3

Oh so that's why. Im only up to 2. God im waiting for the damn 2nd prints. x_x

Seriously?

The only issue you have with this crap is the outfits?

I hate you.

@Decoy Elite: Yeah, I did. But I'm willing to give this person the benefit of the doubt. They might be insane, or have never read an X-Men comic before.

@Decoy Elite: I did not know that.

Must have been hit in the head recently then. This series is a disaster on par with Pompeii. Though that at least has historical value.

@Decoy Elite: True, but that's just terrible in general though. This is concentrated character desecration.

@Decoy Elite: Cyclops apparently committed mutant genocide.

Despite killing exactly one person.

Wolverine kills more than that every time he gets drunk.

@Decoy Elite: Yep. And Jean is right there. And they're yelling at Scott. It's offensively stupid.

"Professor X would still be here if we kill Summers now!"

No, he wouldn't, as Cyke has saved the Professor countless times. On top of that, THAT'S NOT HOW TIME TRAVEL WORKS, BENDIS YOU F*CKING CRETIN. YOU'RE MAKING NO DAMN SENSE.

@Decoy Elite: It's too stupid for words.

The paradoxes are so heavy they almost cause brain-bleeding.

Possibly the worst storyline in all of comics. That's not to say it's poorly written (which it is), I'm just talking about in terms of an idea; it's f*cking awful.

There are lots of issues I have with it, but man the outfits are the things that stick out.

Wasn't it stated somewhere that he killed tons of people off panel?

Ugh, probably.

F*cking Marvel. Everyone working on this crap deserves to die.

Okay, I think that's going a little bit too far, but yeah, I'm not good with this.

On a side note, besides Uncanny X-Force, this WAS my first X book. >_>

@Decoy Elite: You know why Bendis brought the original 5 in, right? It's because he only read the first issue of Uncanny. His research consists of everything the guys currently writing have told him, the movies, and that single issue. That's why nothing makes sense. In Bendis' mind, Jean was always hot for Logan.

Honestly, it's not going too far. They're murdering characters of literary and cultural importance. They should suffer the same penalty as someone who kills an ordinary person, who isn't going to affect history in the slighest.

And you should read Morrison's New X-men, and Whedon's Astonishing. Then Carey's X-Men. In that order. All are infinitely, INFINITELY better than this crap.

Yeah, I plan on picking up Astonishing X-Men at some point, since I've heard really good things about it.

@Decoy Elite: The trouble is, since 500, Uncanny hasn't been written by a single writer who knows what they're doing. They literally do not understand any of the characters. Jason Aaron came on as an unapologetic, misguided Wolverine fanboy and turned Cyke evil, then Brubaker (notorious for having some of the worst X-Men series pre-500 to his name) and Bendis continued down the route of ruining everything in favour of cheap drama. Pissing in the face of long-time fans does not even begin to cover it. They're anally raping us with a cattle-prod.

@FadeToBlackBolt:

Out of curiosity, what are your thoughts on the new X-Men book coming out by Brian Wood?

@Decoy Elite: Highly unlikely. Bendis is the top dog, and he's known for just taking characters solely so other can't use them. Basically, expect a bunch of consequence-less easy-reading in adjectiveless. Not that that's a bad thing, but when only bad things are happening in the big title, the trickle down effect comes into play.

@Walzo: Haven't really been paying attention to it, but Wood is talented, but see above on how I think the book will be treated.

@Decoy Elite: They'd need someone who actually likes the character to do that though. Bendis is an idiot who loves morally-perfect Wolverine (and thus hates Cyclops), Aaron is the same, Gillen's a pretentious douchebag who thinks he's done a masterful job on the series (SPOILERS: He's a d*ckhead), and the rest of Marvel don't have any say.

The guys who like Cyclops; Warren Ellis, Grant Morrison and Joss Whedon, aren't working on anything X-Men any more.

(Notice the difference? Good writers like Cyclops, incompetent morons with the IQ of a partially aborted raccoon do not)

@FadeToBlackBolt:

Jonathan Hickman? Rick Remender?

Bendis is good on Daredevil and Ultimate Spider-man ( I don't even read Ultimate Spider-man, just heard it was good).

Bendis is good on Daredevil and Ultimate Spider-man ( I don't even read Ultimate Spider-man, just heard it was good).

@Walzo: Hickman is an overrated and pretentious tool who relies on "cosmic significance" and "secret histories" to mask the fact he disregards canon. Look at this most recent Avengers, he speaks of Iron Man as the first Avenger (which he wasn't, if anything it was Hank and/or Wasp) and introduces the Builders. Who are the Builders? They're the designers of the Universe. Um, since when? Everything is always a revelation, or explained by some kind of pseudo-cosmic, ham-fisted wannabe philosophy. Everything in his comics is just Deus Ex Machina. This is the guy who had a five year old fix Doctor Doom. A FIVE YEAR OLD.

And Remender relies on "kill a hero, revive them as a bad guy" for literally every story. A complete hack that also receives praise because, quite simply, the people cheering him know as little (about the characters and history) as he does.

FTBB should write X-Men.

Oh, X-Men Legacy is a good X-book right now. 
Mostly because Legion is the best.

Ultimate Spider-Man is consistently OK. It's never once great. It's the kind of comic you read when you don't want to be disappointed. But it has never been good.

@FadeToBlackBolt:

You're tearing through all of my current favorite writers ;_;.

I don't know then, Matt Fraction (I don't even think that's good), Garth Ennis, Scott Snyder, Geoff Johns (eh), Brian K Vaughn?!

FTBB should write X-Men.

X-Men Legacy was always good (with the single exception of Rogneto, but no one knows why that crap was done.). As was X-Factor.

Yeah, this seems like the best idea, in all honesty >_>

Hey @FadeToBlackBolt: , the guy said Geoff Johns is good. GO NUTS...
