Im like both Elixir and Wither. Im don't know why we can't like them both. Shame that Wither died.
READ SNARKED!
Wither had a lot of potential to be his generation's Rogue. He also could have deftly picked up the goth/emo slot that was left by Chamber from Generation X and fit into the Vampire Diaries, Twilight, etc tortured romantic brooding dark male archetype.
I was happy that he fell in with Selene, especially given Selene's history with Kevin's former teacher Danielle Moonstar, but disappointed that he didn't have a longer run as a character.

The Academy-X ones were okay. The art, for the most part, was atrocious (those big noses bugged me). The storylines, occasionally, got on my nerves, especially when it was clear I should be reading NXM alongside the other X-books. So having Northstar's death off panel was awkward storytelling without the book to prop it up.
BUT, I liked some of the characters, like Wind Dancer, Wither, Prodigy, and Elixir. And, I always love Dani!
