CIVIL WAR: X-MEN will be a lot of fun. David Hine of X-MEN: THE 198, SON OF M and DISTRICT X fame tackles the writing chores while the great Yanick Paquette makes his triumphant return to Marvel as artist of the four-issue limited series. X-MEN: THE 198 cover artist Juan Doe returns for another dose of powerful and iconic covers.
People who have been reading the X-Men books over the past few months know that mutants (and the X-Men in particular) have had their hands full since the events of M-Day and Decimation. With The O*N*E and the Sentinel Squad camping out on their front lawn, the X-Men’s lives have been anything but easy. Now, with the start of Marvel’s Civil War, the X-Men soon find that the harder they try to stay out of this war, the more they get drawn right into the thick of it.
Expect to see everybody who’s everybody in this series—the Astonishing X-Men, the 198, X-Force, Sentinel Squad and The O*N*E.I'll give it a try, but only because Domino, Bishop, Archangel, and Shatterstar are in it. If I'm not impressed by issue 2, I'm done with it. Crossovers are very rarely cool in my book. painter John Watson will be doing some amazing X-Men covers for us very soon. Yay!! This guy rocks!!n my mind, four guys defined the “look” of the X-Men that we all associate with everyone’s favorite mutants: John Byrne, Dave Cockrum, Paul Smith, and a few years later, Jim Lee. Other great contributors include John Romita Jr, Marc Silvestri, Frank Quitely and Chris Bachalo, but those first four guys I mentioned are really the cornerstones of the X-art world, in my opinion. imo, the best X-artists are Jim Lee (Harras treatment aside), JRJR, Marc Silvestri, Bill Sienkewicz, Bret Blevins, Neal Adams, Salvador Larroca, and Alan Davis. It makes me feel hungry…not sure why. Seriously, though, it’s wonderful to see these two characters interacting…they have such a rich history with one another. I won't be reading it, but I'm still glad Jubes has a spot in the fold somewhere. If I were in charge, Wolverine would be the only book that Logan appears in, as well as Jubilee. They would go on adventures in Madripoor and fight the Reavers, and stuff. Because he’s the best he is at what he does? Not good enough. If the right writer has the right idea, we’ll consider it.Heh. Gaia.
