Is Fabian's whole X-Force run worth checking out?

[Winghead]

I found the entire run for relatively cheap and I was thinking of picking it up. I read a few issues as a kid, but now that I realize Fabian wrote them I want to know what people think of them. Is it similarly written to X-Factor at that time period?

It's no Chris Claremont.

[Mr. Cakes]

Yes. Everything of Fabian's is worth checking out.

[The Lucky One]

It was okay, not his best work. There were some enjoyable storylines, but overall I'd say you'd get more mileage out of his run on New Warriors.

-D

When Fabian was writing X-Force, who was the artist? Was it Pollina?

[Winghead]

Thanks for the cynicism.

Yes I am a claremont fan. Yes I'm excited about X-Men Forever and started a couple of threads about it. Yes I understand the critisism of his recent work. Yes his characters say Girl and "What the devil?" too much! I get it. But overall I still like him.

I am also a fan of Peter David, Kurt Busiek, Fabian Nicieza, Brian Michael Bendis, Ed Brubaker, Greg Rucka and Gail Simone and I have posted many threads about them as well.

You misunderstand. I like CC even more than you do. I have no opinion on Fabian.

EDIT what Seres said.

[Winghead]

ok i apologize if that's the case. I was just getting a lot of heat for posting threads about Claremont.

so it must piss you off when people rip on him

I have achieved a zen like calm, I can't change these things. I just console myself that I am right and everyone else is deluded.

Certain people were very vocal about not liking my CC avatar. But most people on here are tolerant of others' tastes.

Personally, I think you're full of shit.

Anyway, this thread is about Fabian and X Force, let's not derail it.

Pick it up.

His run is the best of the series... art and story wise. I love the Tony Daniel issues. X-Force was my favorite team as a kid.

Tony Daniel is horrific (his real name is Juan or something by the way. He's pretending to be an anglo). Greg Capullo was the only X-Force artist EVER worth his salt (he drew the hottest Rictor).

Love Tony Daniel, mostly during the X-Force run, much better than Adam Pollina. Greg Capullo was great too, love the Dream Divided issue. Cannonball kicks ass.
