As I stated so eloquently in the comments section of this title, things are getting a little tight in the currency department – a lot of money is being spent of buying all these X-men titles that keep popping up.

This new one, “X-Men” by Brian Wood and Olivier Coipel is worth the hit to the wallet though – both creators have given us a book that immediately captures our attention with a new threat and story pace that keeps us riveted to the pages. And those pages are stunning to look at – Coipel delivers exceptional work here and each “X-Woman” has her own look and design. It seems that Coipel has gone to great lengths to give each member of this new team book a distinct look, which is a welcome sight to these weary, i gotta read every x-men comic book reading eyes.

But you know what? I think the time has come to vote some titles off the island. America has voted and its time to send some X-Men comics home.

Time to cut back on the spending.

So, here are the current X-men titles that marvel is putting out right now…

A X
All-New X-Men
Astonishing X-Men
Cable and X-Force
Savage Wolverine
Uncanny Avengers
Uncanny X-Force
Uncanny X-Men
Wolverine
X-Men
X-Men Legacy
Wolverine and the X-Men
X-Factor
Gambit

And I’ve decided to only read the following titles….

All-New X-Men
Uncanny Avengers
X-Men
Wolverine and The X-Men

That puts about 40 bucks a month back into my bank account. It may not seem like much but that shit adds up.

Story: 4 - Very Good
Art: 5 - Excellent

  1. This is great to hear. I’m excited to read this now. No love for All New X-men tho? Or is that trade buy? cuz i can see that.

    • Yeah run out now (or I guess tomorrow) and buy this! And dude did you miss that I DID include All-New X-Men in my list of X Titles that made the cut. I’m digging that book – much love for it. 🙂
