   Finally the end of an arc that has gone nowhere.

   I really liked this arc.  Nothing really happened last issue, but other than that I thought it was great.  Matthew Risman and the Purifiers have definately turned into some of my favorite villains, it was cool to get inside their heads

   I f’ing love this cover.  Fanboy porn? yup.  But I’m fine with that.  I disagree that this arc has gone nowhere.  I would explain myself but i am sleep deprived and drunk on jameson…

   If the next arc isn’t any better, this book is gone.

   Next arc?!  I thought this was just a mini-series.  This does not need to be an ongoing–it’s just not good enough.

   @ SteveM This has to be a mini there is no way they will screw with  Brubaker and fractions run. They seem to like Angel.

   I can’t speak rationally on this — I’m only and entirely buying it because I like Laura Kinney.  I can read this as long as I pretend it is AU, and has no real relation on the other x-books.  That said, I criticized this over in the comments to X-Men Legacy.

   I could hardly see the art because it is incredibly dark. Yuck. I am now officially "hating" on painted comics. I can’t stand it. When you see something so incredibly awesome like Gary Frank on Action or McNiven on Wolverine . . . This just looks like poop. And I can’t read it when it looks like poop. 

   I also am a "hater" on the idea of a group of X-Killers with Scott calling the shots. Just not good.

    I heard chris yost on uncanny x cast say they have this book planned out till 30.

    @sethteter – I’m in total agreement about the art man, but Mike Choi is on the next arc so that’s a definite improvement. 

     I also think that the whole X-Force theme is a logical next step.  Guys like Mathew Risman just shouldn’t be allowed to live anymore, not after killing dozens of the x-kids.  Cyclops putting together a black-ops type of unit to deal with this small grouping of villains makes sense to me.  And I have faith in Yost and Kyle’s grasp on the x-universe that this will be an interesting ongoing

    Now I no I’m behind and all, but this is the second book in my stack I read this week (Sept 10), and the first was Titans #4, at least I can no get back to spending my hard earned dollars on comics that I care about.  I couldn’t stand the entire narative all the way through this book, mostly because it was telling my exactly what was happening on the page.  This was like a X-Men for dummies book.  "Ok, so let’s tell a story through pictures and dialogue, but then, just in case people don’t get what we’re trying to say, let’s tell them what to think about what we’re creating." I mean really, are we all that stupid. I for one am done with this x title. good luck to all of you sticking with it.
