DivineCoffeeBinge posted:oh yeah, they're a long-time Morlock. Freaky as hell, especially since Masque turned her into a Jean Grey doppleganger I still absolutely hate that little arc in uncanny, too many creepy morlocks with mouth faces. Also that hidden title looks like it's called "the trial" so someone's going to commit a crime probably?

X-Men ending and Duggan taking over on a new volume is not what I would have expected, huh. if I had to guess, I'd say that the mystery Hickman book is something that will finally advance the Moira plot after two years, but it's been long enough that I'll believe it when I see it

Barry Convex posted:X-Men ending and Duggan taking over on a new volume is not what I would have expected, huh. Duggan makes sense. Post-Gala, the assumption is that X-Men turns back into a super-hero book. I'd argue Marauders is the only traditional super-hero book in the X-verse right now. My heart is telling me that the artist on the Hickman book is Art Adams (It certainly looks to start with "A", maybe that's an "R" after...) and the book is Giant-Size X-Babies.

El Gallinero Gros posted:Where do I go next now that I've read House/Powers of X? Most of it! X-Men is probably the book that most closely follows SOME of the things set up in HoXPoX. Marauders is great, through and through. Hellions is the best. Fallen Angels was hated by almost everyone who read it. Excalibur- imo- isn't great but has stuff in it that sets up X of Swords, which is great. X-Force is blah.

Marauders, Hellions, and X-Factor are must-reads without a doubt, New Mutants too with Ayala writing. I don't think that there are any bad books right now, though Wolverine is probably the least essential book of the bunch--it's not bad, it's fine but it's only fine in a line that is the best it's been in 20 years. Excalibur is not for everyone but I love it, I was a big OG Excalibur fan and this is basically a love letter to that era without just retelling those stories. X-Men and X-Force are sort of middle of the pack, but again, the pack is really loving good so that's not a knock on it. I really liked Cable and that's wrapping up soon so will be a good read. I'll admit that the first issue of Children of the Atom was not as promising as I'd hoped but Vita Ayala has absolutely earned my trust so I'm willing to stick with it.

Laura was on a long-term mission in X-Men and out of the books for a while but just came back last week, so we should see more of her going forward (she was also in Fallen Angels but the writer seemed to have missed about a decade's worth of character growth so it's her in name only. The book is awful.) Gabby's recently joined the cast of New Mutants.

The Leah book is The Trial almost for sure. Mini after something happens during the Gala maybe? The artist with Hickman... A R T ... Oh, it probably just says ARTIST, doesn't it. That's a lot of books. Only Cable is ending right? Glad to see Pepe Laraz back.

If you're on Marvel Unlimited, give all of those except Fallen Angels a shot. You may or may not like them, but they all have some fans. Wolverine, Cable, Hellions, and X-Factor were in the next wave of launches a few months later, and also check all of those out. All of these feed into the X of Swords crossover.

xavier was acting really out of character about malice. but then, xavier acting wildly out of character in various ways is pretty much his character recently.

If you're on Unlimited, there's a Dawn Of X reading list on there that collects all of this stuff in one place and you can pin it to the home screen in the app.

S.W.O.R.D. is just like the original in tone and premise, which makes it very much a "skip" for me but I know some people here like it. E: I guess this is Reign though.

It's also really good even with so much of it being tied into an even I cannot give the least gently caress about.

SWORD is fantastic. Ewing has taken a bunch of C and D listers and made them his own.

Does Way of X involve them fighting Chuck Norris in a Roman Colosseum? Also what are Quentin Quire and Zorn up to? El Gallinero Gros fucked around with this message at 22:11 on Apr 8, 2021 |

El Gallinero Gros posted:Does Way of X involve them fighting Chuck Norris in a Roman Colosseum? Way of X seems to be focusing on Nightcrawler and his potential mutant religion and ~mysteries~. And some Professor X stuff maybe. Preview of first few pages. iPod Mutant is cool as hell. QQ is in X-Force, and is a big part of it (most issues). The Zorns are absent, aside from whichever one it was in Powers (or was that a chimera? i think it was a real xorn...)

So Strong Guy, Forge, Tempo and Boom Boom were not picked to be the next X-Men - I voted for Tabitha. - It's going to be Polaris - whateves.

Polaris was literally the only one I didn't want because it would take her out of X-Factor.

I love the Madrox serving drinks in the last one. One of my favorite little things about this era is how whenever there's a grunt job, there's a Madrox doing it.

Aw, Marrow didn't get in either? I voted for her. I liked her when she was on the team back in the 1999-2000 era.

Forge not getting in is good because that means the secret Hickman is all about him and the apparently-forgotten thing where HE SEES HOW THE WORLD IS LITERALLY PUT TOGETHER.

You know, I don't want to call it this early, but I'm going to go ahead anyway: Children of the Atom sucks.
