    The writing is cute. So cheeky, so Ellis.

    The art I can do without. Obvs. But it's tolerable.

    i liked it. i'm surprised that "second stage" has been completely dropped from the title, though. that (distancing their run from whedon & cassaday's) seemed to be somewhat significant in all of the early interviews about this run.
    and i'm counting 1, counting 2, counting 3...

    Uncanny has the same setup, but no set cast and Greg Land is drawing. And of course sealed sausage people > cartoon colored pornstars.

    ellis seems to be fine with these characters, art seems like it's going to make for a good match (and basically, next to legacy and uncanny the art is going to shine).........

    looking pretty good.

    So are all the X-Men and students going to be hanging out together? I mean why not include Pixie and the other mutants in training. Why does Jubilee's clone armor get special treatment?

    But it has Karma, which is so positive that it does away with all the negatives.

    You're right! Ellis should have conferred with you first before he selected the characters he wanted to write the series with. What a horrible, terrible writer.. :rolleyes:

    You better not pick it up to show your protest....

    Does that mean he won't be able to start threads and write any of his "summaries" for new issues of Astonishing? Sweet.

    ms rogue would be "suck" hehe,
    though that scene is a bit of a rehash from the first movie.

    don't mind armor, that much.

    not as much as frost's new chest x. what is that! like a bullseye or something
