I loved the hell out of Morrison's X-men/New X-men run. It was the run, along with Frank Tieri's Weapon X run, that was responsible for getting me back in to comics. If only every other X-Writer at the time was as good. Or even good at all. These were the years of Chuck Austen's Uncanny X-men(410-443). The book where Nightcrawler's whole reason for existing was invalidated. The blunt force metaphor for the whole franchise, the guy who looked like a demon, but showed us all that we shouldn't be so quick to judge people on appearances, turns out was really a demon the whole time!  Havok literally urinated Iceman a new body.  Angel banged Paige Guthrie in the air while her family watched, at the conclusion of a horrible riff on Romeo and Juliet.  Sammie the Fish Boy.  I want to blame insane sadistic Polaris on him too. making GBS threads up the whole end of Morrison's X-men with the revelation that the Xorn that Magneto was pretending to be was really Xorn pretending to be Magneto pretending to be Xorn. Overall it was just a terrible, terrible run. And Marvel followed that up by giving him Avengers. Then DC gave him Superman, and JLA! I have no idea what was going on in their heads in the 2000's, that they kept giving this guy work. Dreqqus fucked around with this message at 02:00 on Jul 31, 2013 |
