Thankfully, X-Men: Legacy won't be involved in this "X-Men Vs. Vampires" shenanigans. Not that I think it will be of poor quality, but I'm not heavily invested in vampires.
Awkward. Rogue looks like she's in the middle of... lets call it "ecstasy"... while standing on one leg. Me no likey.

$3.99 IS TOO MUCH FOR A COMIC!
This one's a lot sexier than the last one. Rogue definitely looks like she's enjoying it. Emma and Scott weren't very provocative.
Also, everyone's talking about how "Curse of the Mutants" is ripping off Twilight, but these promos seem to lean way more toward True Blood.

These covers are lame. I am going to get X-Men #1 and I am looking forward to this storyline, but these promos are just generic fodder that do not interest me at all.
Wanda Maximoff is a joke!

Anyone accuses ANYthing of ripping off Twilight, they should be smacked upside the head since that is the most trite, derivative junk ever to be published...
I want one with Storm, since she is in this story. Preferably the one doing the biting.
This is great stuff! I'm excited because it's been over 20 years since I've collected comics and I've never read an X-men book. So for me this is a great starting point and mixing the super heroes with the "horror" genre is a great idea. Definitely looking forward to see where this goes and I'm assuming we'll get a Vampire mutant out if it I'm sure.
I want that as a poster on my wall.
As for the next couple? X-23 and Pixie for the stealing innocence bit.

I don't want to judge this before it comes out -- it could be brilliant...
But vampires?
It's the same pain I felt when Toronto named it's basketball team 'The Raptors' following the success of Jurassic Park.
Granted, vampires seem to come back into style about every seven or eight years, but this is a particularly painful cycle (Twilight and it's imitators).
Honestly, I wish this vampire thing was keeping all of the main vamps in play -- Dracula, Morbius, Blade, and (a personal pick) Ba'al, the vamp-baddie from the old Wolvering series...that was good stuff.
I guess, in the end, I'm worried it's more of the same ol-same ol. Hero VS Hero. Who can you trust? And g'damn vampires.
I'm buying you, Xmen #1, please be good.
