  1. Alright skottie young you’ve impressed me a thousand times over with your art so here’s your chance to show that you’re the whole package. *fingers crossed*

  2. I don’t know anything about these creators…do people think this will be good or what?

  3. nobody draws a better Magneto right now than Clay Mann. no one.

  4. I am going to bite, Regenesis has kept the bar high thus far.

  5. Does anyone know if this is same day digital?

  6. preview looks nice

  7. Clay Mann is on art duties, so automatic POTW if Casual Wear Magneto makes an appearance.

  8. Skottie Young writing… huh. I’ll try this.

  9. Not bad. Good looking book, fun banter, but I think I’m good.

  10. Magneto is by far my favourite Marvel character. Can not wait to read this.

  11. This is my PotW! Art is AMAZING! Story was great! Magneto put iron man in his place. I wasn’t super excited for the surprise return, but the rest of this issue was spectacular so i’m willing to see what Young has planned.
    5/5 from me!

  12. Great dialogue, decent story, and amazing art. HOWEVER….I would like to just ONCE be able to read a 616 x-men comic without having to go to wikipedia to figure out what’s going on! Seriously I was about to put this down and start singing it’s praises and then last page ends with “Just as i figured…joseph is back”. Who the fuck is joseph and why is it assumed everyone reading this would even know who he is just by that line. Well turns out according to wikipedia (which i’m sure a lot of your die hard x-fans already know) joseph is some sort of clone of magneto created in the 90s and then died in a fight with magneto or something like that. Sigh it’s still a good book and i’ll probably stay on board but seriously I feel like 90% of the time when i pick up a new x-men comic, I am almost guaranteed a homework assignment to understand it.

  13. I really enjoyed the scene w cap and iron man, the only thing is once mags started using the cerebro device I’m like okay this is getting f’ing silly, not to totally shit on the book overall I thought it was okay thou I prolly won’t be back for #2

    • It wasn’t like he can communicate with people through it. He can just sense other notable sources of electromagnetic fields. It’s a bit of a stretch, I’ll grant you, but it didn’t personally take away from the overall narrative for me.
