Dark Avengers Uncanny X-Men Exodus

It's all about advertising! That first scene in Scott and Emma's bed was included for no other reason than for Marvel to say "Hey, there are more Dark X-Men books! Buy this!" I'm not complaining, though. I'm gonna buy it regardless.

It was a good scene, though; I think this book needed that scene.  But the logistics of how this story is being told are puzzling --

Nice to see an ohcaroline review, especially on this book! I think that you hit the salient points quite well, although I thought that the Dodson transition worked pretty well (and I don't like Dodson).

Has there been a good X-Men artist since Cassaday? A really good artist?

Dodson's work on the telepathy scene made for a good transition, I suppose -- because there was a reason for the visual separation, and because he'd done telepathy scenes earlier in the series.  Other places it didnt' blend as well, though.  This trade is gonna be a bit of a patchworky mess, hmm?

Ohcaroline you pumped to read that Necrosha event? Aside from the fact that they have a major continuity error by involving Blink I think I might enjoy it assuming that they don't screw it up.

Absolutely nothing I have seen about Necrosha has me wanting to be within 100 miles of it.

Though I don't see how Blink's presence is a continuity problem; I'm assuming the first issue will explain her presence.

@Ohcaroline: =p we'll see. Marvel drops the ball on continuity with minor characters too often. If they don't explain it I'm going to assume it's Blink from some other universe since 616 is in Exiles.

Btw what has got you disliking Necrosha? The whole concept of 6 mutant-killing mutants organizing feels like an anti-xforce which has got my interest peaked.

Well, I hate XForce, and I have no idea what the concept of Necrosha is because the Clayton Crain art on the preview makes my eyes bleed.
