Uncanny X-Force, #35

[Juggernaut Punch]

The only bad thing about the run was the ending. The idea that all of the lessons they learned would amount to letting Sabretooth casually stroll away is ludicrous.

The whole Daken thing was a joke. Especially since they did the SAME story in Daken's book months ago.

They let him go so he'd kill Oya. Duh! That's a perfect ending.

Obv Remender was upset by it or else why'd he be talking to Gillen in the first place? I doubt Gillen called him up out of the blue and told him to quit UXF lol.

I didn't write it that way. It probably went something like:

"Kieron, they're giving me the chance to write Captain America and Uncanny Avengers, which is a double-dream come true, but it means I'll have to leave Uncanny X-Force before it's finished as I intended, which makes me sad!"

"Cheer up, mate, you've got a huge opportunity and--look on the bright side, if you can wrap up X-Force now, you'll be leaving on a high note! Sometimes you need to know when to get off the stage!"

"You're totally right! I'm signing the paperwork right now!"

Then Matt Fraction, who was eavesdropping, high-fived the air and slammed a Mountain Dew.

top to bottom, this is just a fucking fantastic post..

What a horrible way to end the series. We finally get to see Fantomex die a painful death, and it is undone. And we get the return of the over the top cheesy fantomex/psylocke romance. Lose-lose situation here.

I bet Fraction loves Doritos Locos Tacos.

The positives:
-the series is done.
-Daken is done (sigh, again).
-Betsy's NO SORROW plot is done (no idea how it happened though).
-presence of Deadpool is done - ironically, he was finally very good here.
-the art was clean and story flow was clear for a change.

How do you know her no sorrow plot is done? She cried in issues #26 and #27 which was understandable because the Shadow King was telepathically manipulating her into feeling sorrow. By the end of #27 she mentions that can't feel sadness over Fantomex's death, which makes sense because the Shadow King is not in her mind anymore. In #28 she alludes to not being able feel sorrow, again, but she might have cried again(the art is kind of ambiguous about this). This is where things start getting confusing and weird. In #29 she cries again while stating that she can't mourn for Warren . So... I really don't get why people are acting as if this issues is the first time she's cried since giving up her sorrow or even since the Shadow King manipulated her and given the bizarre and contradictory way the sorrow/no sorrow plot has been written, I don't get why people are acting as if this is proof she can feel sorrow again.

Without Remender or Humphries giving any sort of confirmation, who know wtf is the status of the sorrow/no sorrow nonsense.

I agree--even if he loves them with irony.

Agreed. Letting Sabretooth go was probably editorial, it made no sense.

For all who are saying Deadpool and EVA revived Fantomex, thats not what happened. All 3 of his brains were dead. They cloned him. And in comics cloning mostly means they somehow clone their soul or they can put their soul into the new body which is utterly stupid. Remender tweaked that a bit with the identity simulator thingy but still the 3 new Fantomexes are 3 new persons, just simulations of the old, dead Fantomex. Kinda like Madelyne Prior and Jean or the new Angel after Archangel, its just dumb that noone acknowledges the difference among the characters. Or not so far, at least. Fantomex visiting Evan could still happen later on, as Fantomex is in the new UXF also. (Which is lame btw, Spiral and Puck, with Psylocke and Storm just could not work only generate trollfests here.)

I agree that artwise Noto did not live up to Opena, which made the 2nd half less impressive, but still a pretty good run and better than the vast majority of comic titles.
