D'oh! For some reason your thread didn't show up on my page until a minute ago.

I think I'd already seen this. Regardless, I'm likely dropping the title as now I not only have the lackluster writing to contend with; but now also the off-putting art.

It's ok. Cronin will probably merge the two threads.

From the looks of the previews Emma might be getting very tired of being there for Scott, for anything he needs, and yet she still plays second fiddle to Jeans memory. Mind you, I loved the Jean/Scott relationship, and she will return one day. But right now Emma is in the picture like it or not.

You do mean being there for Jean right? And, yes Jean will return if only to yet again slap the living $#!+ out of Emma for G.P. Heh!

I really Choi's art even if everyone looks 10 years too young, but BAhH
Tony Stark makes me cringe
oh my god.....they are quite simply the worst coloured pages my eyes have seen, yuck.

So he's dreaming about Jean, then is uninterested in Emma when he wakes up.
So what's Stark doing there?

Being his "I-Know-Better-Than-You-Could-Ever-Even-Notice" self about how to protect mutants, and Cyclops tells him to shut up. I dislike Cyclops very much, but I can't say I'm not thrilled by this :D

Cyclops joining up with the initiative would probably be the biggest "get" that Tony could grab right now; with the high probably of the majority of the other X-Men following suit.
Scott should be able to see that, so I REALLY hope they write his response well.
But also, the Initiative might just be the "perfect" place for him as a character to segue into a bigger role in the MU instead of forever playing the role of Xaviers' "eventual" successor, so I'm just going to wait and see how this plays out.

well in the last panel Cyclops appears to be abotu to take off his glasses. So i hope that's his response to Iron Man.

Indeed.
Hopefully he tells Tony to open up the visor and then blasts him in the face and tells him to **** off.
The mutants have enough problems, Iron-Man's registration propaganda should be the least of Cyclop's worries, I really hope he lets him know that, very personally.

Wait did the link send everyone whose complaining about the art to a different page or is it me, Choi is a superb artist damn the attention to detail is sweet. I don't care what any of you say I like it alot.

It's all the the eye of the beholder.
The lines are fine but something about the coloring looks plastic.

Yeah, I for one hope he is only doing this arc. I liked his issue of X-Men a bit more than this, but not what I wanna see monthly on this book. As for the story itself, Scott and Emma are the 2 X-Men I least want to read. Not too psyched about my favorite book directly after MC. As always, I'll hang around and see how it plays out.

So not looking forward to the Scott/Emma/Jean drama.

If I remember correctly, there's a Brubaker interview on comicbookresources from a while ago where he says he's spoiling whether or not Cyke survives MC by saying this, but that he wrote a scene after MC that he really liked in which Cyke tells Iron Man to shove it and to get the sentinels off of his lawn.

Maybe it is the start of the end for their relationship though :D

I would like that, I have always liked the Sentinels as enemies and not as protectors.

I don't think we'd be seeing any Sentinels on the lawn for a while post MC anyway.

That's true after what happened with them. Maybe Stark is there questioning Scott about just went wrong with his tech and troops?? Demanding answers, getting pushy with Scott, then bam the optic blasts.

Tony is probably offering condolences as well as an offer to join The Initiative.
Scott will tell him to get the sentinels off of his lawn. They may be destroyed, but they're government property lying what's left of the mansion, and they sure as hell are still a reminder of betrayal.
