    The only thing I'm missing about this series is Sabretooth, I'm a big fan of the character especially his AoA version. I hope they bring him out of limbo. Also, is this series ongoing or do they have an end in mind? Its tying with X-Factor and Uncanny X-Force as my favorite Marvel title so I hope to continue reading it for quite some while.
    Yea this is an ongoing series and according to interview, should it last we may get stories telling how things came to this and even crossovers with 616.

    Im still enjoying this book. I had to cut my number of books due to $$ but this one made the cut.

    Its interesting to see how things have changed and how Prophets trying to tweak the world into somewhere where the last humans can survive. It was a bit of a risk reviving Monet, but her jockeying for power will definately make his job easier by distracting Wolvcalypse. I sense a lesser mutant rebellion coming soon. Sure the Alphas can blow up mountains, but hundreds of lesser mutants can do the same working together, plus being a society in the progress. If the alphas just beat the hell out of eachother for power plays they may get caught with their pants down from a societal revolution.

    Also, its good to see Darkbeast and Sugarman here. I hope with NewMutants getting cancelled we might see Nate Grey migrate to this title. His current low power state would be a good parallel to Jean Greys... plus shes his actual real biological mom.

    Wouldnt mind seeing holocaust too.

    So I had the first of this series and I wasn't feeling it and didn't continue to read it. Yesterday however, I picked up issues 2, 4, 5, 6 (3 was out). I hope it's worth it!

    It is. It's kind of like if Marvel did a Batman family book in a dystopic future. At least that's the vibe I get from it.

    Dear God, don't even think it! DC will find out about this and launch another Bat book! LOL Actually I'm digging the writing ,but having a hard time following the art work.Don't get me wrong I like the edgy feel of it,but I have to rest my eyes and even then have a hard time making out some of the smaller panels and what they portray. Also too much of the action is off panel and I think pacing this at 20 pgs. or so may contribute to this.As far as storyline goes I think bringing back Cyclops and others from the dead sounds like more of an editorial mandate.I would have picked it up from where the original left off and let Dark Beast and Sugarman creat some newbies from their primordial stew.Maybe some of this was addressed in the much maligned mini a few yrs. back, I never read it.Even though I say this, I like Laphams take on this and would read more by him in the future.I chose this over AvX.

    Im kind of shocked at Prophet's requests for mercy and to be on a preservation. I mean can Monet defeat Wolverine? It seems kinda bland to me with Prophet's true intentions....or is this his 'real' intentions?

    Restoring Nate in this book is something Lapham could do.

    Post Apocalyptic timeline that came about in the 90's. Body armor is a must even if you have powers that makes your own.

    Processed metal is expensive and hard to come by in post-apocalyptic worlds. Think of it as an investment.
    VIVA KUSASAN!!! Morrison On Magneto: I made him into a stupid old drug-addicted idiot. CC had done a lot of good work over the years to redeem the character. And I went in and sh*t on all of it.
