Generation X Appreciation

[Starleafgirl]

We all love Generation X, in spite of the horrible mistreatment of the kids by Marvel since their series ended.

So here's an article from someone else that describes that love, too:

Interesting saying how the book feels indie now.

It has been a while since characters could just sit down and play off eachother. Its more about building up to and executing events, and only the most bombastic characters or character being the most bombastic get pannel time.

Oh look, it's the best thing ever:

Prettiest thing ever, want a poster so bad!

Oh look, it's the best thing ever:

It totally IS the best thing ever!! I just about had a heart attack when I saw it on the main CBR news page for Axel-In-Charge... XD So close to thinking they were announcing a new Generation X series!

Still, this is pretty darn good (Chamber and Penance drawn by Bachalo together with the rest of Generation X!!) and I don't care how much the variant cover costs, I'm buying it.

Me too!!! Somebody tell us if they come out with a poster version. :o

Random psionic demon skulls ftw! Haha. I'm guessing Bachalo decided to add something neat there since it's non-canon and he can do what he wants. You should post it in the Chamber Appreciation thread... ;D

Id love it if theyd incorporate it as a new manifestation of his powers (maybe due to Legion screwing with him during AOX.)

[Likewater]

So...what does this mean?

A flash Back story?

A time Travel Story?

A nostalgia tribute?

or are they restoring Gen-X?

[NewMutant]

It means its a variant cover for an X-Title. Nothing more.

Great to see them actually honoring Gen X though. I flipped out for a minute.

Let me ask you guys, did you love Gen X after Bachalo? No offense to the other artists, but I feel like after he left, the characters never seemed the same. And with Scott Lobdell gone, the voices seemed off, too.

Seeing that combined with x-mas music ligerally made me cry a little. Just one teardrop for my childhood not like I'm psylocke'ing out here.

The only time Gen X was bad was when Hama (god love his Wolverine tho) wrote it. The Dodson art I thought worked for the series, but none compared to Bachalo.
