I was wondering if anyone knew anything more about this title? Is it something that is going to be worth buying? I'd love to see a new origin of the X-Men type story line, but am a bit reluctant... what if it sucks? We just went through the Ultimate thing, is this just a repackaged idea with a 1950s feel to it?

I fear for my X-Men...

It's more along the lines of untold tales, than a retelling of older stories with a modern twist.

Hip hop and comics huh? I see I'm not the only one.

Eh, I'm more mainstream r&b, but my names not Mariah.

I've heard stuff like "the x-men before the depression and the angst and the tragedy".

...So i thought, well, what the hell makes it X-Men then!?

I was gonna get it, but way too many other minis are coming out that are set in the current timeframe, and characters i'm really interested in, like Doc Strange: The Oath, Immortal Iron Fist, and Wisdom

A happy light hearted x title is a good idea. I hate the modern day dark themes we have today.

Yea, the world an chaos stuff does get kind of old fast. A light hearted X-Men title sounds like fun. The story line might be as stagnant as some of you suggest though; i read the update on the second issue and it says that they're going to Florida for a beach party or something stupid along those lines. Whatever. I'm going to give the series a try and i'll complain about it if it does suck, so no one else has to indure it.
