I liked Aaron's better. More memorable moments. (Even though they weren't all good)

Wolverine and the X-Men by Jason Aaron.

ah, only technically. it was just too funny to me to not do.

no hard feelings?

Wolverine and the X-Men vol 1 is a genuinely good series.

Austen's Uncanny is embarrassing.

In Aaron's run, I liked the idea of the Xavier school becoming a more wacky, science fiction inspired, looking place, and I like he mapped out the school and faculty rather than just having it packed full of nameless mutants. Other than that, I wasn't really a fan of it. I have never really cared for Quentin Quire, or Kid Gladiator or any of those characters.

However, Austens run is on average considered the worst X-Men run ever, which is saying something, and I have to agree. The writing was just a laughable attempt at being deep, he ruins Nightcrawler, Angel and Husk's relationship is boring.....It's uninspired and not very imaginative.

Aaron wins by default.

QFT

WatX had so much promise.... Then AvX..... then clowns.... then sharkgirl.... and snot.....

Austen. Oh man, I am not sure that ever had a good string of issues. I remember some of those issues making me cringe with dialog

Both series were horrible. But Austens was better than Aaron. Aaron was absolute sh*t on a cosmic sub-atomic level

Austin's run im afraid im alone in this *runs*

did you actually read Aaron's run?

it may have been silly overall, which I know isn't your thing, but there were some legitimately well-done issues in there.

@oldnightcrawler: Yup i did read it in trades especially after hearing some on these boards give it some praise or at least argue about the potential. I wish I could have gouged my eyes out and just forget it completely. But yeah i wont comment on something I havent read unless I get a very succinct summary or explanation. That would be kind of....eh I cant find the right words but arguments would hold little weight, wouldnt they?

@hawk2916: haha.. yeah, okay. I just always assumed you had no patience for that style of X-men

@oldnightcrawler: lol. yeah i really dont but it would be kind of asinine to try and comment about something I know nothing of. I didnt purchase the books but Ive read them

Hmm...surprised this is so close

I agree with Hawk 110 percent. I MUST SAY, the first idk 3-4 issues until AVX were interesting enough to keep me hopeful but after that i wanted to find aaron down and run over him with my car, IMHO Bendis > Aaron.

Austin I didnt like, i was sad to see my guys Chamber and Husk get a chance to shine and they did the complete opposite, still they were there and had more spots then they did with Aaron and Husk dating Angel is still nto as bad as Husk dating Toad SOOO yea Austin for me thanks :D (cringes that i had to type that)

WatX-men was definitely up and down. But I like the first 8 issues anyway, and #17 - Wolverine's Secret Weapon was really great, and #24 - Ain't No Sin To Be Glad You're Alive was pretty fun, and Savage Learning was alright, and issues #38 -40 were pretty good.

That's not much of the series (17/42?), but it's a lot more than I liked from Austin's run.

@hawk2916: @oldnightcrawler: I really like the pregnant Kitty Pryde story line. And the Hellfire Club, except for snot.... i fucking hated snot. It was just so turbulent, and in your face.

They were both very bad but Aaron's run was worse imo. I liked some of the stuff with Quentin Quire but that's about it. With Austin's run I enjoyed the juggernaut stuff, and I liked Jean-Paul being added to the team as well.

the best thing aaron did with QQ was the psionic shot gun, that was pretty cool lol

I'll vote for Austen's since Aaron's run really didn't do what I thought it'd do. At the school but didn't give the students growth, the teachers were all very one night... Everyone was really one note. The comedy and silliness was fun at first, but then I got tired of it quickly.

Aaron's run was fantastic. Never read Austens and am not planning to.

so wait is Aaron actually winning this fight

:'( shoot me now

@mcklayn: according to the poll he's getting beat. And that's what I'm going by.

NO!! Wait a second!!!! We vote for the worst run right?!! Because I voted for WaXM and I can't possiblt live with the thought I gave it a positive vote!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thank god, i didn't even look at the poll like a derp i was trying to read the replies and dying a little inside. I didn't realize you added a poll they werent on the earlier ones i dont think

@mcklayn: The poles on the site were broken when I started the 2.0's but they were in the original series. Its probably not for the best since there's more discussion without the poll, but when the poll is there I don't have to scroll over 15 new comments a thread before I post the next battle.

Both these titles are pretty Bad. My vote goes to Aaron run only cause I remember some of the stories. Aaron made me like Rachel Grey.

Yea I noticed people seem to vote and not express their opinions lol. the replies will say one thing and the poll something totally different
