I want to go on the record that I did not ask for this.
kthx
UUUHHHHH me 2. I didnt even know that marvel.com was asking what Claremont would write next!!
what a wonderful idea… let the fans on marvel.com dictate what Claremont is going to write about. that should get him out of his funk…
What’s this? This missed my attention when I was creating a list of comics to buy. Who asked for what? ??? I guess I don’t go on marvel.com as much as I ought to. Um, new generation of mutants? From where, a funeral home?
I’ll be honest, this is an intriguing concept. I enjoy real time alternate universe stories. I don’t think I’ll be buying this, but maybe I’ll leaf through it at the store.
@Conor Oh, it’s a great concept. I just can’t remember the last time Chris Claremont wrote anything that didn’t make my brain boggle, in a not good kind of way.
I’ll skip it and go re-read the first three issues of NYX over and over and over. I don’t think "modern mutants" gets much better than those three issues. Everything else pales (including the rest of NYX!)
Yipes… Just…yipes. You want to know what I want Claremont’s next project to be? ANYTHING but comics, especially X-Men. I don’t remember the exact moment that Claremont jumped the shark (somewhere before X-Treme X-Men?). Maybe he was better suited for the comic book style of decades past, which, if true, begs the question: shouldn’t a "modern, real-time" take on mutants be the LAST thing Claremont writes about? And can’t we stick this in the MC2 universe where it can be properly ignored?
Also, I got twenty bucks says it opens with a baseball game.
Yeah, this doesn’t interest me at all.
I hope they have tons of angst and talk to themselves a lot. That would be a really new spin.
I like these kinds of stories, so I’m hoping it turns out good. Maybe it’ll even do good enough to create a new spinoff set of series, like Ultimate and First Class. I’d like to see a Next Class Avengers and FF.
Aren’t there enough young X-somethings crawling around the Marvel U now?
