I'm not enjoying that Dodson art in the preview. It seems like a poor choice of style to put him on a funeral issue.

[teddyeatsyourface]

Will Storm's mohawk (as seen in ads for “Astonishing X-Men: Xenogenesis”) be a look that's consistent to all her appearances across the Marvel Universe?

I sure hope so. I love Storm’s mohawk more than my mother and call it more, too. My mom isn’t happy.

LOL my favorite part of the interview

[Daniel Mengsk]

"If Colossus lives through “Second Coming,” it will."

To late to play that card guys, to late. It's a bit late for 'damage control' at this point.

[alf_to_the_rescue]

Nick Lowe seems super happy.

[Slant]

Awwww...Scott's so happy to see Hope.

And that Magneto/Hope panel is creepy. Mags has no shame.

[teddyeatsyourface]

Dodson's art reminds me of the graphics from the first X-men:Legends game. >_<

[Pixie_Solanas]

I'm not enjoying that Dodson art .

Welcome to my world.


Nick Lowe seems super happy.

The kurt fans are giving him the giggles today.

[Brian M.]

Welcome to my world.

Maybe Greg Land would have been better. At least he would have traced mournful faces from the folks from Princess Diana's funeral.

[fortyseven]

Hmmm Kitty is actually making an appearance. I was thinking she was going to be ignored untill after the event.

[Ziral]

This was not a good X-Position. I like the Dodson preview pages though.

[teddyeatsyourface]

lmao! Wait why is colossus holding DVD of Dracula? Go find your sister you idot!

[Atomic Mongoose]

Going from Choi's art in the X-Force #26 chapter to Dodson's in this one is like going from filet mignon to a bowl of stale Lucky Charms.

Let's not go overboard here.

[Prodigy55]

Why are they all so cheery? ********** body isn't even cold yet! It may be just Dodson's fluffy art, though.

[Slant]

Yeah they seem rather happy, considering what just happened. Colossus and Kitty are all smiles, and Scott is practically giddy over Hope.

I wouldn't expect Mags and Cable to care either way though. You know Cable doesn't give a shit about who just died.

[AcesX1X]

i'm so excited for x-men and vampires. but, i'm glad mike carey gets to continue his "manners and boot camp for rogue" series.

[Nite-Wing]

Scott gets a Pedo alert for looking at Hope like that

[NewMutant]

Ugh. I hope those Astonishing looks don't filter into the rain of actual 616 storytelling.

[Vivica Kang]

The X-position was okay...Didn't need to see Hope/ Kitty moment....Kitty should have gave her the finger. But that was a creepy scene with Magneto and Hope. Dodson is a good artist. But this was not his issue to do it.

[Washout]

It looks like Hope's pissed at Scott for letting someone die in her name. This issue looks hilarious.

[fortyseven]

Bastion just lost his creepyness in those preview pages. I don't think the art is bad... just... out of place.

[Daniel Mengsk]

Scott gets a Pedo alert for looking at Hope like that

He was just channeling his inner 'Charles Xavier'.

[Pixie_Solanas]

Why are they all so cheery? ********** body isn't even cold yet! It may be just Dodson's fluffy art, though.

No one gave a shit about Kurt and hadn't for some time. His "martyr" act got stale.

[lockerogue]

Kurt friends are such assholes. I love that Karma is causing a ruckus with her missing leg. Madd Jeff must have said something she didn't like.

The one thing I don't like is that Nick Lowe thinks everyone is retarded and haven't read any X-Men comics.

[Brother Justin Crowe]

Lowe doesn't want to "spoil future Astonishing plans"? He basically just confirmed it as a series of mini-series when a fan listed it as an ongoing. Silly Nick. :tongue:

[blehbeh]

Why are they all so cheery? ********** body isn't even cold yet! It may be just Dodson's fluffy art, though.

Maybe Colossus hasn't told Kitty about Kurt's death yet, and he's trying to distract with her with smiles and dvds. When they hauled the body through the lab, Dr. Nemesis threw a sheet over her little pod. Yeah. That's the ticket....

[fortyseven]

Here's a special text-included preview of next weeks Uncanny!

[Pixie_Solanas]

LOL @ karma's face.

[(129)JEFFrey]

I'm correct in saying we don't know Hope's powers yet, right?

If Hope is being introduced to Kitty here, maybe she'll be the one to fix Kitty?
Very "messiah" like, no?

[darknessatnoon]

That DVD cover has the Virgin Mary on it. Colossus is dumb enough to think he can convert Kitty to Catholicism. I find this "Jews for Jesus" moment totally offensive.

[Dudebro McTypo]

And that Magneto/Hope panel is creepy. Mags has no shame.

Magneto: Do Want!

Rogue has been replaced....

[Leirus]

Sheeesh, Scott does not have any respect for personal space. Or maybe it is Land´s art, it seems everyone is hitting on everyone. Weird, that Lowe had to say that X-men will never be bright and fluffy, with all those bright and fluffy panels around...

[Perfection/Emma 2]

Emma better watch her territory or someone going back to being THE OTHER WOMAN!

[teddyeatsyourface]

Dodson is on uncanny for the remainder of SC

Never go full retard Pete

[Dani Justice]

lol @ karma's face.

grrah

[Pixie_Solanas]

Did Dodson just decide to say, "To hell with faces this issue!"?

[Gymer]

Why are they all so cheery? ********** body isn't even cold yet! It may be just Dodson's fluffy art, though.

I just assumed their trying to keep a strong face to ease Hope's fear before Bastion's next move

[NickFury90]

Did Dodson just decide to say, "To hell with faces this issue!"?

I thought that's what he built his career on. He keeps a "Faces aren't THAT important" banner over his work desk to keep himself (un)motivated.

[Anna]

The X-position was okay...Didn't need to see Hope/ Kitty moment....Kitty should have gave her the finger. But that was a creepy scene with Magneto and Hope. Dodson is a good artist. But this was not his issue to do it. Magneto and Kitty should have been looking at each other on account of him saving her.

The one thing I don't like is that Nick Lowe thinks everyone is retarded and haven't read any X-Men comics. Poor Shan,!

Since when is Piotr Catholic?

Pierce is leaving bombs while using an iphone to communicate with a smiling evil robot.

[Koni]

I'm guessing Colossus called dibs on Nightcrawler's DVD collection.

Also, nice booty on Scott.

[darknessatnoon]

Since when is Piotr Catholic?

Beats me. Ask Fraction.

[MartinRedmond]

Awww he planted a reminder for mothers' day. Glad to hear Carey is permanent on Legacy.

[streator]

i wonder why kitty is in that thing. i still have to read the issue where she came back, though, so maybe that'll explain her current condition a little more.

[Washout]

It will explain it a lot more.

[fortyseven]

Pierce is leaving bombs while using an iphone to communicate with a smiling evil robot.

If that's Pierce, there better be a good reason as to why Danger is completely unaware that he's missing.

[MartinRedmond]

It is certain that things will be explained at some point.

[FiddleFaddle]

Why are they all so cheery? ********** body isn't even cold yet! It may be just Dodson's fluffy art, though.

I thought the same thing too, but maybe the didn't show the mourning because it had spoilers.

[IN-A-SYNCH]

I'm not enjoying that Dodson art in the preview. It seems like a poor choice of style to put him on a funeral issue.

Much Agreed

[Maestro]

Karma is clearly whining about the end of her lesbian sex life.

Very much agreed

[Shaid O Gray]

Without text some of this looks...odd. Scott really does look like he's going "Hey li'l girl. Yer kinda pretty! Wanna lollipop?"

And then Hope's look at Magneto is all 'jailbait'/Lolita'! (with Magneto probably going 'Hmmm a girl yet YOUNGER than Rogue!! I'm so there! Rogue was getting too old for me anyway!')

Should be an interesting 'funeral issue'.

BWAHAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!! I actually laughed outloud on that one.

[darknessatnoon]

Danger is an idiot. Always has been and always will be. Her character concept is to constantly fail.

[Shaid O Gray]

BWAHAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!! I actually laughed outloud on that one.

Well, look at it! I can't be the only one seeing this, right? When Scott bends forward to Hope, I almost wanna call Chris Hansen's 'To Catch a Predator!'

(I can hear Hansen now, to Scott: "So tell me Sir, what were you about to do there?")

Obviously Fraction has some Child Porn issues within himself

Did you read my Logan reference to pixie when he was driving to Oakland?

Calling her "girly girl"

It was sorta Ted Bundyish :eek:

Cyclops replies:
"I have a family.. a son, A diamond whore wife, a red head daughter in space i dont care about, Oh god this cant be happening!!!!!!

It IS happening a lot lately huh?

Hahahaha! "You're free to go Sir. I won't keep you here." - Scott: "Oh god, the police are waiting for me, aren't they!!? Emmaaa!!"

[IN-A-SYNCH]

lmao!!!!!!!!

[blehbeh]

I thought the same thing too, but maybe the didn't show the mourning because it had spoilers.

Perhaps the smiles and DVD watching IS mourning. Peter and Kitty are reminiscing about the time Kurt made them both sit through "Passion of the Christ" on DVD, which then made him angry at Kitty for a whole week. Oh, Kurt...

[jeansbff]

Ah. So hope survives second coming. Plus the colossus and kitty moment in there is quite cute. And cyclops is such a bastard. He has a smile on his face when trying to console hope over nightcrawlers death. :mad:

[Pixie_Solanas]

Karma is clearly whining about the end of her lesbian sex life.

http://i44.tinypic.com/2rz5mwy.jpg

She leaves the headband on in bed? DURING SEX?

[blehbeh]

She leaves the headband on in bed? DURING SEX?

When this scene occurred, she was already getting dressed in a huff and put the headband back on. Karma found herself turned off once the girl admitted she enjoyed the Battlestar Galactica finale.

[Pixie_Solanas]

I don't think that lipstick lez is going to give Karma the time of day now, unless she has stump fetish.

[Washout]

I don't think that lipstick lez is going to give Karma the time of day now, unless she has stump fetish.

Maybe Karma's new metal leg will be able to do things.

[Jmacq1]

Glad I wasn't the only one looking for Chris Hansen's phone number after these pages. Seriously Scott, WTH? If I were Cable I think I would seriously be considering revoking grandpa's visitation rights.

Magneto/Hope 4-evah! Or...not. I actually found Scott creepier than Mags, though Mags has the (dis)advantage of being shirtless and Hope actually looks like she's considering it....

[Slant]

This is probably going to be the best funeral issue ever. Everyone is so happy and Hope causes everyone around her to act a bit creepy, and Colossus is just having a ball with his DVDs.

They're all like "wait someone died? lol whatever"

Kitty missed a whole season of Project Runway while she was away. When else are they going to catch up?

[Kirayoshi]

Project Runway nothing, those are probably the Doctor Who specials she missed. Kitty's a David Tennant geek. Oh, and the new Star Trek movie.
