View Full Version : Uncanny X-Men #513 Review Thread (SPOILERS)-
how was beast at fault for Hellion stomping a mud hole into Trask?
Oh, Beast is responsible for every bad thing that's happened to the X-Men.
And he personally gave half the posters on this forum wedgies!

Matt Fraction is going to kill someone in Uncanny 516. Probably Dazzler, Match, Beast, or Hellion. Place your bets now.
five on dazzler being thrown off the golden gate.

Did he actually say this somewhere? I think Match has probably got a pretty short life expectancy now.

Has he said as much or are you speculating?
Of course, killing someone off seems to be the default way to draw attention of late. I think it's a cheap stunt most of the time.

What's superior about his human body? He had oversized hands and feet - big deal. He'd never have brought down Danger or been able to seriously tangle with Wolverine in that form.

"Powers" and "feats" aren't everything. Personally I can't enjoy Hank's character at the moment due to the subliminal connection between furry fandom, beastiallity and the fandom shippers who are trying to pair him up with Psylocke / Cecelia, etc. Human Beast is much more enjoyable.

So what if he has furry fans? It doesn't mean you are one if you enjoy the character. There's no reason why he shouldn't be paired up with any of the others, he's still a mutant and a man.
Without his more animalistic attributes the essense of his character is lost. The contrast between his true inner self and the outside - you know, never judge a book by it's cover? I think reverting him to human form would be one of the worst things that could happen to him.

Beast- was shown walking after from/leaving the x-men on 515.. So he can't die if he's not in the book.:smile:
Both Hellion & March have been already confirmed to be alive & In X-men Legacy see after this crossover.:smile:
Dazzler - they basically said at the convention last week that see with been in uncanny after crossover. So I see him killing her either. :smile:
Any more/other chooses ?

I hate how there is a formula to events. Someone has to die. Otherwise its not an event.
My first guess would be Match. He is being shown a lot for a minor character.

Hellion was confirmed in the interview about the annual on this site, on marvel.com (in a interview) & on another site. Match was confirmed on his facebook when some asked was he going to be in X-men : L (Also he & I were kicking around a few ideas to help distance Match away from Johnny Storm & Jim H (who on his way back alive) ). Bling!, Loa & someone else were all confirmed.

I enjoyed this issue because Mystique was in it and laughing about being a bomb.
WTH?
Adam X????
Yes!
I am really curious to read Jason Aaron's Mystique story in Dark X-Men: The Beginning, to see how the hell Norman got her.
I did not know Aaron was writing her again. *so happy*
Are people really moaning about the Adam X thing? REALLY?
If he had said anything other than, "Lets &#@% some &#@% up, bros, let's get &#@%$# extreme!", I just would not be able to take this character seriously.
...Also, I have to give it up to Fraction for finally making me like Adam X. If he had been drinking a Mountain Dew and eating some Spicier Nacho Doritos, he would have been perfect.
If we see him next time doing this while he's in the middle of a fight I will get a subscription. okay, no i won't but i'll laugh really hard

Bling!, Loa & someone else were all confirmed.
That Facebook conversation in full: For those of you unable to interrogate Carey first hand
Prodigy55 Hey Mike, is there any hope for Match to be part of X-Men Legacy?
Mike Carey You'll definitely see him around, Mustafe. In the background, initially, but he's a character I'd like to develop.
Greenshoes Hooray! *Leaps in air*
Mike CareyThe "ugly" and awkwardly shaped X-Men tend to get neglected a lot of the time. There's plenty of room for manoeuvre there, in terms of filling in their past and adding some shading to the characters themselves...
4sake Mr. Carey, have you ever seen Avatar: The Last Airbender? The reason I ask is I've always thought it would be cool & interesting if Match could use his powers like the Firebender on the show..
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firebender#Firebending
Also are there any plans to reveal Match's ethnicity/race/ethnicities/nationality? I believe he's one ... Read moreof the few New X-men/X-students has yet to stated for that regard other than being American . I personally would make him mixed, to be pacific both Asian American & African American because of the lack of both Asian & African American male mutants in the X-men ranks currently .
Darkness@noon Mike,
Did you just call Match ugly?
I've always been bothered that more than his head lights on fire. It should only be his head. Otherwise, it's a contradiction of his superhero name.
JAU I agree about the contradiction. If he picked his own name, maybe he is stupid as well as ugly?
Mike Carey Well, you know, ugly is relative. Maybe he's attractive to other people whose heads are on fire.
Mike Carey Wow. The firebending stuff is a whole mythology, isn't it? I wouldn't want to give Match the whole range of those powers, even if Nick would let me - but it's a great template for taking elemental powers off in new directions.
Thinking of Match's ethnicity reminded me of the great line from a Karl Kesel FF story - "You don't look Jewish" - spoken... Read more to the Thing by a generic bad guy (the Powderkeg) on Yancy Street. But it's a fair point: if I do spotlight Match, I'll try to give him a background and a convincing identity.
4sake Thanks Mr.Carey.
Re: firebending. Yeah I also think giving him all the firebending powers would make him to super powered also. But I think giving him make 1-3 of the powers would really help distance Match from being similar to Johnny Storm & the soon to return Torch.
In Uncanny X-Men/Dark Avengers : Utopia, he was show having the power/ability to absorb/drain fire/flame/heat. So that also help set him apart.... Read more
I think if his flame was able to change colors could/would help him out also because there so many red/orange Flame characters in marvel. Maybe depending on his mood or something like when he angered/intense state it turns blue or yellow when he clam/weaken/of need of rest.
Also firebreathing sound like a really cool power to me & I don't believe any other current marvel Fire/Flame base charterers can do so. Maybe he could be in a fight or something & has used all the power he believe himself to have, then he starts to dig deep & out shoots the fire from his mouth.
Mike Carey There's certainly plenty of room to play with his powers, given how little we've seen of him in action. (lol)
4sake That's very true by the way what do you think of the firebreathing power idea?
Mike Carey Could be cool if it was handled well.
4sake That is would be & I'm petty sure you could &would. Also how do you feel about the changing flame colors idea/theory/powers/ability?
Mike Carey I like it in theory. I think it would be harder to establish this far down the line. It would have been great to show him occasionally flaming in different colours earlier on, without any explanation, and then give the pay-off later...
4sake Sounds good I hope it happens.

Yami: Someone get me my agent.
Raye: Hail SATAN!
Emma: Wait...what are the stars of Yu Gi Oh Abridged and Sailor Moon Abridged doing here?

Emma: O_O
Norman: I've got no time to handle legal battles. The innocent won't oppress themselves!
Raye: They won't be suing after what I did to them!

Cyclops: Surge, calm down. Mercury stop breaking Godwin's Law. Let's just see how this plays out.
Surge: Wait...you just want to see some more hippies get tased, don't you?
Cyclops: Yes. Yes I do.
HELLION!
Hellion: We must protest!
Avalanche: I am the voice of reason! Jesus christ....
Match: I agree with your plan Hellion! And I certainly won't use it as an excuse to cause chaos!
Hellion: Your unsettlingly specific denial reassures me!
Avalanche: Hey match...how would you feel about wearing a skintight red and yellow suit? (HOlds up old Pyro costume)
Match: O_O
TRASK!
Simon Trask: You, male nurse!
Male Nurse: Yo!
Simon Trask: MIND RAPE! (Grabs him, seizes control of his mind) HAHAHAHAHA! Now all in this hospital are nothing but slaves to my evil plan! But I'm still definitely not a villain!
I PREDICT A RIOT!
Hellion: Peaceful protest! We haz it!
Sunspot: You've spent too much time around Beast.
Match: REJECTED!
STUFF BLOWS THE HELL UP!
Emma: Alright people...we only get one shot at this.
Dark Beast: FOR PONY!

Cyclops: Alright, I've seen protestors get beaten up on live TV. Now I'm gonna go talk to Norman.
Surge: To try and stop the violence?
Cyclops: Yeah, sure. Stop it. Why not?
What will happen? Will Cyclops get any more innocent people tased as he runs from the law? Will Emma break any more teenagers jaws? Will Beast's LOL-Cat powers infect more mutants? And will we see any of the Dark X-Men actually DO anything?
Find out in our issue! Maybe...

mike carey is too nice to swat 4sake away like he should have been. although, it will be carey's mental health downfall if he continues to entertain such hysterical demands.

I'm surprised by how much I liked this issue. Matt Fraction seems to be getting better since 512. Really liked Mystique's appearance and the introductio of the Dark X-men (hope they stick around after the crossover). One thing I didn't like about the issue was Hellion trying to act like Kid Omega (who was a far better character) and also Berto being on Hellio'n "team" seemed a bit ou of character.

This issue made me think it would have been better were Pixie originally replaced by Hellion in this team, the whole neo-Quentin character arc would've been more interesting then.
I didn't really mind this issue, Dodson's art didn't fit and apart from Hellion no one really got any decent moments but it's a crossover and it's better than the Sisterhood arc. It also doesn't have Land.
The Beast segments were shit, from both versions of the character.
I like the Dark X-men concept. I think it's shit symbolism for Emma to use a black uniform, the Dark adjective doesn't exist for the general public so there's no reason to go all Wednesday Adams. It's just hitting us over the head with how. dark. it. is. !.

Trask's story is complicated if you're not into or planning to get into the X-men. He's the guy whose family was behind the Sentinel program, died sometime ago but was revived as one of the Technarchy in X-Force. Now he's leading an anti-mutant movement in San Fransisco under orders of Bastion and spear heading Proposition X, I believe.

You need to be the new writer for Uncanny, this stuff is hilarious. Congrats!!!

HEY GUYS
do some folks a favor OK? some people have femininemystique on ignore for her interpretations of x-men. THAT'S OK, even femininemystique say its OK too. in fact, she encourages it. SO COULD YOU PLEASE DO THOSE FOLKS THAT HAVE HER ON IGNORE A FAVOR AND NOT QUOTE THE ENTIRE RENDITION? it kinda defeat the whole purpose.

Optic, speaking of fanfic, do you still believe Scott controls the destiny of mutants?
I don't know. I guess it depends on how things turn out with Hope.

As Puunk pointed out Optic Rage, the ignore function isn't hard to use. I'm not forcing you to read my parody summaries of the issues, okay? Some people on the forum like them, some don't. I'm not saying you HAVE to like them and you don't have to read them either.
My sole issue is that your thing takes up so much space and then people keep quoting all of it over and over and over again just to say 'lol', essentially. If I'm looking through this thread on my iphone then it's really annoying to browse. That's something for Puunk and your other fans to note, as well.

Trask's story is complicated if you're not into or planning to get into the X-men. He's the guy whose family was behind the Sentinel program, died sometime ago but was revived as one of the Technarchy in X-Force. Now he's leading an anti-mutant movement in San Fransisco under orders of Bastion and spear heading Proposition X, I believe.
Yeah, I remember Bolivar from the cartoon and assumed that Simon was a relative.
Those Trasks really are douches, aren't they?

When I heard Emma punched Hellion, I couldn't wait to get to the final page and see this for myself.
Fraction's dialogue here is pretty great (actually has me anticipating Cyclops' meeting with Osborn) but I had to say I was kind of let down. The fact Emma punched Hellion with a diamond fist should have been something epic ... but it just seems really bland.

Firstly, Adam X is a parody of a character, so he was parodied. Also, he was probably drunk. Ridiculous character acts ridiculous.
Avalanche learnt not to be a goon in his Manifest Destiny story. However, it was a double-bluff. I enjoy him and his bar-owning ways.
Lorelei is the New Stacy-X, but cooler.
Nobody is talking about Mystique and her 90's plotline.
Venom was halfway through turning into an Iguana. However it was completely inconsequential to the story.
Sunspot being out of character is talked about. He's a bit of an angry diva man, and people are trying to take his right away to procreate. Things like that would make a good man mad. Not everyone can be VILLAINOUS VILLAIN. Some need to be there as it is the right thing to do. If somebody was trying to take away my rights, because of their own prejudice, I would protest. I wold attack. However, I am mist-ah pacifist-ah. He was more logical there than everyone apart from Hellion.
All the complaints about "so and so should have siad more" I mean. . .Really? Should they? That was a lot of characters to fit into one issue, and we know the characters will garner future spotlight., so it is not as if Weapon O will only talk about the machine, or Dagger will only talk about cameras.
I despised the last issue, but I enjoyed this one.

I really enjoyed last issue and all of the Science Team content -- otherwise this is leaving me cold. I love Fraction on Invincible, was blown away by him on Iron Fist, but don't get his X-Men at all... It's like the Milligan run -- both are some of the top comics talents of their time (in my opinion), but either due to editorial fiat or poor fit, they're just don't work with the flagship X-title.

Matt Fraction is going to kill someone in Uncanny 516. Probably Dazzler, Match, Beast, or Hellion. Place your bets now.
five on dazzler being thrown off the golden gate. Dazzler does not stay dead for long. Mike Carey is planning on using Match and Hellion. Any other suggestions?
He should have X-23 cut off his lame arms. Can Santo watch?

And now the Abridged version of Uncanny 513, part two of the big crossover that proves that Marvel are commited to getting your money out of your wallet and into their pocket.
CYCLOPS!
Cyclops: Watch out hippies!
Hippies: DEAD
Cyclops: Heh. Whoops.
Norman: VOICE OVER!
Other Xavier: I am totally the real Xavier. Honest. And Norman Osborn is definitely not looking to harm mutantkind.
Dark Avengers: LET'S HARM MUTANTKIND!
Karma: When did we change into our costumes?
Bling: No time for logic!
Miss Marvel: Don't make me bitch slap your asses. Cause I WILL
Daken: C'mere random man who looks like WOlverine! I can take my whiny daddy issues out on you!
Random Man: EH!?
Bullseye: CLICHED ONE LINER!
Ares: Look at how ripped I am! FEAR ME!
Cyclops: Oh look! More hippies! Over here HAMMER goons!
Hippies: YOU SUCK CYCLOPS! (TASED!)
Cyclops: Damn. I really am a dick.
Norman: Shake my hand Xavier.
Xavier: Ugh. I know where it's been.
Norman: Just do it for the cameras alright? These knuckle dragging mouth breathers will eat this stuff up with their big sub-normal approved rubber cutlery.
COLLOSSUS!
Collossus: You stopped me scoring with young tail Venom. For that...I WILL KILL YOU!
Venom: O_O...brains?
Iceman: Time to pick up a guy! (Grabs hold of Collossus) going my way?
Collossus: Bobby! What are you doing here?
Iceman: How did you know my name was...OH. Collossus, it's you.
Collossus: Didn't you realise that?
Iceman: What? No this was totally intentionally a rescue. Totally! What, you think I just scoop random guys off the street and whisk them away to assault them!? HA! That's crazy talk Collosuss! You're talking crazy!
Collossus: O_O
LOL BEAST!
Real Xavier: Listen Henry you...
Beast: Belief: I doesn haz it
Real Xavier: What?
Beast: Lol, ur trying to trick me, but ai iz not fallin for it. Ai will sit here till the guardz bring mai cheez burger
Real Xavier: Henry...what's happened to you? Oh god...you've been buying dust from Pixie haven't you?
Guards: We are generic henchmen!
Beast: Ai will go with you! Voice in mai headz, I'll be back soon. Kaythxbai
Real Xavier: He's so screwed.
Dark Beast: Hello Henry. I've long awaited the chance to have you at my mercy.
Beast: Lol. Oh hai. Ai can haz evul twin? Plz?
Dark Beast: Um...what?
Beast: LOL LOL LOL
Dark Beast: Damn it, he's become a LOL-Cat. I blame YOU for this internet!
OSBORN!
Norman: Come and meet the team Emma. And you know...pose in that tight leather.
Emma: Why the HELL is Charles in a wheelchair?!
Mystique; BOO!
Emma: Oh. My god.
Mystique: You're not surprised?
Emma: I might be if you turning out to be Xavier was handled with any real drama, rather than being a blink and you'll miss it couple of panels.
Mystique: There goes the fourth wall!
Norman: No time for asides to the audience. Meet the rest of the team.
Mimic: I'm the best there is at what other people do!
Omega: Not to be confused with the other one.
Norman: And finally...Yami and Sailor Mars.
Yami: Someone get me my agent.
Raye: Hail SATAN!
Emma: Wait...what are the stars of Yu Gi Oh Abridged and Sailor Moon Abridged doing here?
Norman: Well it was meant to be Cloak and Dagger. But Dagger was apparently written OOC and both were relegated to background appearances...so out of protest, for legal reasons they won't be appearing in this parody.
Emma: O_O
Norman: I've got no time to handle legal battles. The innocent won't oppress themselves!
Raye: They won't be suing after what I did to them!
Weapon Omega: Um...can I be transferred to a different team?
Raye: I'll transfer you...TO HELL!
Norman: And lastly Daken, our obligatory Wolverine cameo.
Daken: Sup.
Emma: Oh joy. Well to balance out this gaggle of nobodies I've brought in someone with actual SKILL.
Namor: Hello mortals. Make eye contact with me and I'll cripple your families.
Emma: I love you.
Mystique: How is it my return to the X-Books is nothing but a two panel cameo!?
Norman: Shhhh. You're taking panel time away from MIMIC!
Mystique: If I didn't have a bomb in my chest I'd be killing you right now.
CYCLOPS!
Surge: Emma has betrayed us!
Mercury: It's so fascist! It's all fascist!
Cyclops: Surge, calm down. Mercury stop breaking Godwin's Law. Let's just see how this plays out.
Surge: Wait...you just want to see some more hippies get tased, don't you?
Cyclops: Yes. Yes I do.
HELLION!
Hellion: We must protest!
Avalanche: I am the voice of reason! Jesus christ....
Match: I agree with your plan Hellion! And I certainly won't use it as an excuse to cause chaos!
Hellion: Your unsettlingly specific denial reassures me!
Avalanche: Hey match...how would you feel about wearing a skintight red and yellow suit? (HOlds up old Pyro costume)
Match: O_O
TRASK!
Simon Trask: You, male nurse!
Male Nurse: Yo!
Simon Trask: MIND RAPE! (Grabs him, seizes control of his mind) HAHAHAHAHA! Now all in this hospital are nothing but slaves to my evil plan! But I'm still definitely not a villain!
I PREDICT A RIOT!
Hellion: Peaceful protest! We haz it!
Sunspot: You've spent too much time around Beast.
Match: REJECTED!
STUFF BLOWS THE HELL UP!
Emma: Alright people...we only get one shot at this.
Dark Beast: FOR PONY!
Emma: For the last time, we are NOT making that our battle cry.
Hellion: MIss Frost! How are you...
Emma: FALCON...PUNCH!
Hellion: MY JAW!
Emma: God that felt good.
COUCH POTATOES!
Cyclops: Alright, I've seen protestors get beaten up on live TV. Now I'm gonna go talk to Norman.
Surge: To try and stop the violence?
Cyclops: Yeah, sure. Stop it. Why not?
What will happen? Will Cyclops get any more innocent people tased as he runs from the law? Will Emma break any more teenagers jaws? Will Beast's LOL-Cat powers infect more mutants? And will we see any of the Dark X-Men actually DO anything?
Find out in our issue! Maybe...
Mystique: TWO PANELS. Someone get me my contract...

Firstly, Adam X is a parody of a character, so he was parodied. Also, he was probably drunk. Ridiculous character acts ridiculous.
Adam X is a good character. His outfit is bad at times and I think he's insecure about premature balding, but he's like every Frat boy in existence about a year out of college. He's angry/bitter/innapropriate and slightly dangerous. His life didn't turn out the way he wanted it too. He makes your blood burn! and likes to go rock climbing and to Hooters.

I actually think Julian had a sound plan but he was on a team with mutants even more uppity than he, so perhaps it isn't surprising that things plunged into chaos, but I can't help but think it's awfully convenient that they would turn into rabblerousers since Emma could use someone as a scapegoat to show her team is working for the 'greater good.' I'm looking forward to what happens between Emma and her favorite student, though.

When I heard Emma punched Hellion, I couldn't wait to get to the final page and see this for myself. Fraction's dialogue here is pretty great (actually has me anticipating Cyclops' meeting with Osborn) but I had to say I was kind of let down. The fact Emma punched Hellion with a diamond fist should have been something epic ... but it just seems really bland. Doesn't it?
At least that would have better suited her character. Or at least her old character. God knows what Fraction wants to do with her now. She's fresh off of hammering Lady Mastermind with her fists of fury.

On the grounds that Empath, as a sociopath with a low boredom threshhold, would for shits and giggles instill Hellion with such overwhelming lust for a concrete wall that he'd break his own penis off humping it?
Yes. Yes, he should.

As it stands, I can only hope that Daken will show her who the boss is, if only so that her seeming omnipotence will be tempered and that she will be written as a fallible character within the pages of x-force.

I just read those scenes as if she has a "been-there-done that" kind of attitude towards the whole thing, knows she'll get out of this situation eventually, and is just going to enjoy being bad in the meantime.
Also, is it possible that some members of the "Omega Gang" who seemed misplaced or who turned the protest into a riot were previously captured by Osborn and had Weapon Omega use Professor X's powers stolen from the Omega Machine to cause their actions? At the end of the one-shot, Xavier did say there were others there in the prison.

Yeah, it doesn't quite feel like a cross over since the Dark Avengers are basically the badguys. It's X-Men fighting badguys, like they do in pretty much every other comic. It's the weird nature of the Dark Avengers.
It's no different than when Norman's TBolts or Dark Avengers showed up in other comics to beat up the good guys.

I was thinking more about the Cabal being the driving force in this issue with Norman, Emma, and Namor. And I was very interested in the interactions of Emma and Scott to come up, just as I'm interested in Scott and Normans. I was most interested in Namors involvement with Scott, seeing Namor was the first mutant, and Namors view of the X- Universe.

Yeah, I think a BIT more build up on the X-Men side of things probably would have been a good idea, since this event seems to largely focus on the X-men.
We got some nice stuff with Emma since the whole Dark Reign thing began... but a lot of the other aspects do come off perhaps a bit rushed.

Most of my opinions on this issue have already been said by other people, but here's something I was wondering: Bolivar Trask, inventor of the Sentinels, was resurrected by Bastion in X-Force.

This is Emma just making her play pretending to be loyal to Norman. Scott himself wasn't particularly angry because he knows that, and it would be foolish for anyone to think she means it, or she won't backstab Osborn in the end, even if we didn't know pretty much everything that will happen in the crossover and afterwards from the interviews, solicits, covers, etc.

i just assumed that Bolivar used Simon's name because the majority of people know that he (Bolivar) is dead.
Well, it would be suspicious to have that happen the same week that Graydon Creed also comes back from "having faked his death" as he claimed, when he got the T/O resurrection.

I feel really odd but...I actually liked this issue--the only one since Fraction came aboard.
I think it all went together rather nicely and other characters were doing things, which was surprising.
I am really happy with the use of Hellion. He's a stupid, impulsive, self-righteous jerk and his taking charge, not in the corner, weeping into Tag's used boxers.
The Dark X-Men, as brief as their speaking time was, got a pretty good introduction. I liked Anole and Surge speaking up, even though Surge sounded like, um, one of my, like, posts.
The only thing I had a gripe with was Dodson's art, which did nothing for me. But I admired the glossy, glossy colors.
Nice.

I thought it was way too busy, a lot of stuff being thrown around quickly to try to get something going since before this the X-men were not part of DR outside one character. All of a sudden because of a riot Osborn has a totally random team going, more random mutant kids join up to riot some more.... because that's going to help? Mystique is now trapped with a bomb on, Prof X captured, this and that,etc, etc, etc.
Instead of this rush of stuff the UXM book should spent the last waste of an arc into slowly building this up.
Yeah, I think a BIT more build up on the X-Men side of things probably would have been a good idea, since this event seems to largely focus on the X-men.
We got some nice stuff with Emma since the whole Dark Reign thing began... but a lot of the other aspects do come off perhaps a bit rushed.
I'm wondering why this can't be an early "List" book. Surely Norman Osborn had a plan to combat the X-Men, and when the trigger event occurred, (the riot), he just told Ms Hand to assemble the players he already had earmarked.

That doesn't make sense. Doesn't Emma know Xavier and Hank are being depowered? If so, what purpose would it serve to go along with Osborn while her people are suffering? She is now locked in a group, that have become the alternative X-Men, Scott is on the run, and Osborn is forcing the Cabal onto X territory.

Most of my opinions on this issue have already been said by other people, but here's something I was wondering: Bolivar Trask, inventor if the Sentinels, was resurrected by Bastion in X-Force. Then in Uncanny, Simon Trask, Bolivar's dead brother, is seen running around with T-O powers. Did I miss something or is this another case of Fraction not doing his homework?
Oh crap so what do we have here?
Bolivar for some reason taking his brother's name or Simon also being revived as well?
This is going to be fun for a while. Trask was also refereed as "Simon" in Utopia X one-shot

I don't know if I actually liked the issue or if it was just expectation, but it read well enough.
All illogical situations and mischaracterizations were perfectly in-character considering the writer. It's good to see Fraction doing something consistent in Uncanny.

Well, she knows now.
And what you're saying is exactly what I'm saying: she is not accepting Osborn, only pretending to so she can backstab him and defeat him from the inside.
I'm backing Namor as the true leader of mutants, not Scott or Xavier or Magneto.
Oh, sure, that's reasonable: let's put the bipolar guy that doesn't care if he is a mutant or not, just hates almost all humankind, has already one kingdom to run and does it badly to lead mutantkind. What can possibly go wrong?:rolleyes: That's like having, I don't know, Norman Osborn in charge of protecting the US.

I can't see her backstabbing Norman until the time he looses power. Emma was supposed to be Magneto originally, so Marvel has had to squeeze her into the role. Don't you buy, at all, that Emma would cooperate with the Cabal? I'm convinced she's an equal partner in their dealings, after all she was a member of the Hellfire Club.

I think Namor would make a stronger king of the Mutants than Xavier or Scott or that mental case Magneto. I respect Namor to do a fine job.

There will definitely be an explanation for why the renegades ran in the middle of the park and immediately started rioting when they specifically concluded at the bar as a team that going in like goons and *#+*#*# *1!# up(by Adam-X's words no less) would be a bad idea. I was under the impression they'd go in the park and do a peaceful rally which would bait Osborn into arresting them and thus looking like a bad guy, rather than terrorizing SF and making the dark X-men be the heroes. I have faith that fraction will clear this up next issue.

I wish Fraction would listen to the fans and put the Kleinstocks and Neophyte in Utopia. :frown: :frown: And Thumbelina and Risque, who are undoubtedly BFFs because everyone needs a fat friend.

Why wasn't 'Phytey in New Avalon??? I wish he would've been a part of that Xavier smack down action. Its strange how the rest were just there for that one issue and then kinda went back into obscurity.
Well I guess that isn't strange, but its still notgood.
I'm sure the Kleinstocks will turn up in a similarly unexpected cameo.
Maybe Thumby works at the bar too to please the male customers with her brawny good lukz while Risque is rockin' the janitorial apron in the sexiest way imaginable?
