Kingtheninja posted:So I'm not sold right away on Excalibur. I like the cast but not sure I'll be interested enough in the story to keep it up. I'll ride out the initial arc though and see how I feel. I believe it was during Hunt for Wolverine : Mystery in Madripoor. I read it but I can't remember how it happened.

What's up with Warlock? Is he just Doug's arm now or can we expect him to be back at any point?

The Rocket series is worth reading in its entirety. Unless you really don't like Deadpool.

My first X-Men was the Essential collection, starting with Giant Size #1. Somewhat inexplicably, Banshee was my favorite character.

The scene in New Mutants where everyone is hanging around playing cards is exactly what I want out of these X-Men books. I love Magik's line about not having a formal education.

How Wonderful! posted:Fallen Angels was of course wretched but I wonder if I'm the only person who also strongly dislikes the non-Hickman months of New Mutants. It started off fine but it feels mean-spirited in a way that none of the other books do except perhaps X-Force which works as pitch-black comedy. I feel it might be better if it wasn't the same book as Hickman's which is infinitely superior.

How Wonderful! posted:I was trying to think of mutant lawyers and could only come up with the guy from X-Statix off the top of my head, which got me thinking about the spin-off that's supposed to be coming out this year and how interesting the Krakoa stuff could be in the context of that team's pretty enormous body-count. What I'm saying is Bring Back Bloke. I've been thinking about how X-Statix is going to work with krakoan resurrection and my guess is they'll just say they're the absolute lowest priority for being brought back.

Oh yeah, I read that - I meant specifically U-Go Girl because her death is so important to Mister Sensitive and having the ability to just bring her back would change all of that.

BAMF stands for bad rear end mother fucker I've been reading X-Men from Giant Size #1 and I'm closing in on 200 and holy poo poo, there's a point where it just becomes and absolute joy to read. I struggled through the first for forty or so issues of the original run and it was miserable but it's great to see the relationships and characters that'll matter for decades get definition and interact in interesting ways. One of the biggest huh? moments for me has been Rachel just appearing and sticking around, just kind of hanging out with the team but I like how organic the story feels.

How Wonderful! posted:I don't know if you're reading annuals and other concurrent stuff but IIRC before she shows up in the main Uncanny X-Men title she has one appearance in New Mutants #18 that is kind of important and then she shows up in UXM Annual #8 just lingering in a crowd scene but it's got beautiful Steve Leialoha art so I want to mention it anyway. I'm reading annuals and minis but I'm catching up on New Mutants right now.

Leah is so excited to be doing X-Factor and this issue was so good. Other than Fallen Angels, it's a good time to be an X-Fan.

I've been reading Inferno for the first time this evening and wow, this delivers in a way that modern Marvel crossovers really don't by paying off several long running threads simultaneously. It feels like a legitimate moment of growth and change for a lot of characters.

Rod Reis feels like an artistic heir to Sienkiewicz and I'm really enjoying that. His studied yet loose brush is really interesting to look at and his experiments with color in the most recent issue were a joy.
