    X-Men Legacy_254

    The X-men have been going into outer space for almost as long as there have been X-men. The far reaches…

    This issue avoided any of the clangingly jarring mis-character moments that I have come to associated with the Fraction run….

    May 8, 2012 4:15 pm The movie is going to make 2 billion dollars and is based on an open-ended concept. There will be an Avengers 2 and they will make it as fast as they can considering what they have already committed to. So whether you want it or not, it is coming. The bigger question is whether they will try to continue this back and forth dynamic between the solo and group films or try to bunch up more Avengers films faster. That would be a mistake, but who would be really surprised to see Hollywood strangle their golden goose for as much money right now as they can get? As to whether I want one? If it is these actors and Whedon, hell yes. Most of these actors and Whedon, mostly hell yes. Some of these actors and another director, yes but with trepidation. A lot of comic book sequels have been damn good, Iron Man II being a serious fly in the ointment. It is the third film that tends to suck...
    May 7, 2012 8:58 pm I've dropped a bunch of comics where the story just seemed too drawn out/decompressed, but Morning Glories has really held my interest. Maybe its all the expanded pages counts. Thirty pages helps.
    April 30, 2012 4:42 pm Ohhhhh-Kay...... I am not totally sure what just happened to this comic.
    April 25, 2012 2:03 pm I for one pre-order the book without looking at whether it has a cross-over attached. If I am not interested in the crossover I won't run out and grab the other issues, but just stick with the issue I already paid for. Plus, if you are going to get only one issue then the end of the story is probably the least annoying to have.
    April 25, 2012 2:00 pm I am in the camp that Greg Land has gotten definitely better/less trace-y in the past 6-12 months. But his faces for women... UG! They are all the same woman making the same orgasm face. God help you if he draws a blonde out of uniform. It could be almost anyone. If he worked on his female faces I think I might be able to read an issue of his without cringing.
    April 24, 2012 9:17 pm Gillen has flashes of brilliance on X-men and then stretches that don't seem to do much or go anywhere. I don't get any sense that he has a vision for the X-men like he clearly does for Loki (JIM is amazing). I keep hoping this will all gel together. His Fear Itself issues were surprisingly fun, so maybe the AvX will pull the same trick.
    April 24, 2012 9:12 pm Except for the tale end of the Trench storyline, which I felt got a bit muddled, this these issues have been fantastic. But JLA and GL have been leaving me cold, so go figure.
    April 24, 2012 9:07 pm Manapaul's writing has not clicked with me. The art keeps pulling me in... but maybe for not much longer.
    April 24, 2012 9:04 pm Now that the epic tale is over, this magazine is on a short leash. But then it is Hickman...
    April 24, 2012 9:01 pm Impulse pre-order this and #2 for the hell of it. Fortunately common sense caught up before pre-ordering #3. Of course if this is somehow amazing I will be slightly sad... but only $2 worth, as that is what it will take to buy it at my LCS. Please give us real bad ass moments and not X-Sanction complete lack of badassitude. Please?
