I don't really like the cover. It could be better.

As my Mom said about my school test papers when reviewing them, "There's a lot of red on there."

Shame Elixir went and effed off into Genosha to help Necrosha survivors. Since vampirism is now a viral agent, he could just cure it with a touch.

Or turn any biological material into human blood for them to eat. So the vampires would want him as a resource.

I honestly thought from the headline that CBR was taking a look at the overuse of vampires in fiction lol.

The question should be "How bad is the new X-Men book"

I'm not sure Gischler has ever heard of this "Elixir."

And he's back from Genosha. He just spent all of Second Coming in the cafeteria.

So what is the premise of this storyline again? The X-Men/mutants an endengered species, is setting out to exterminate another species?

16 million vampires. No wonder the search for Scarlet Witch is back on.

Has Carey mentioned him appearing in any future Legacy issues? If not, it'll be funny to see how long it takes him to get back from Genosha.

I dunno. I just shook my head in the first issue when Dr. Nemesis estimated how long a cure would take, and how much it would cost.

And I was like... "He's met Josh Foley. In fact, he's watched him heal people."

Seemed like a gross underestimation of Dr. Nemesis' intelligence. He and the science squad figured out how to remove Legion's more destructive personalities, and harness the good ones on a low budget, after all.

Why is X-23 there and what happened to her costume?

[Whim]

16 million vampires. No wonder the search for Scarlet Witch is back on.

no more vampires?

Yet they still can't cure aids or cancer correct?

As far as I'm concerned the most anyone has ever done is Dr. Doom, and he could only cure the bloodlust that came with it.

As a Blade fan I'm looking forward to this, although I doubt he'll be fighitng wolverine.
