How Come Nobody Is Talking About 'First X-Men'?

Well, I mean, besides the fact that it was bad.

Really bad.

Nasty revisionist history galore that should be shunted off to an alternate Universe bad.

Buddy, buddy Wolvie and Sabes.

Ultimate D-Bag Xavier.

And some other lame cannon fodder muties.

Did I mention it was bad???

It looked more tossed out than actually produced in any careful or meaningful fashion. Accordingly, no one seems to have noticed.

I loved it. Fantastic. Neal Adams characters walking, living, breathing again. Writing was on point.

No one talked about it because, much like the news media in the real world, celebrities couple news can trump most other stories in the news feed. This would be that, in comics today.

Yeah, I had to go read my ol Iron Fist issues and the Sabes In The Red Zone one-shot to enjoy the sociopath assassin Sabes was always suppose to be, not this guy who helps Wolvie save kids...

*shudder*

It just doesn't interest me. Ultimately the story has no bearing on current time MU, so I have no reason to care about it in an observer fashion either.

Bad reminder of the 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine' movie *barf*

Yeah, it was that degree of awful.
Don;t get me wrong, Adams art was cool, a refreshing old-school change...but the writing...ugh...

Nobody's talking about it because it sucks. Just be thankful that this crap is a mini and not a full-on series. I'll pick this up next year when its available in my LCS' quarter bin. Not to read, mind you, but to line my bird cage. I don't own a bird, but I'll gladly get one so it can take a dump all over this comic.
