So... what am I looking at? Even dumber versions of the X-men than they have now?

All I can say is VERY MEH!

To me the X-men have gotten very soft. They aren't really 'hunted' anymore. Yeah, they may be a bit disliked but it doesn't seem like a lot of people (besides supervillains) don't a like them as a race. I remember the days they would have to deal more with prejudiced and hide in the 'human' world. I would like the school to be shut down and all the X-men would have to join 'old' Cyclops, just for protection. Perhaps get the Sentinels after them again. Have them look for other mutants etc. and train them, yet they would have to choose to fight buy those who are trying to survive in the human world and those who are making all out war on it. Magneto should be the villain again who is making war on it.

IDK besides All New X-men to me most everything is boring about the X-men these days...

Shamo, I assume you haven't been reading them..or you have and just have really awful taste! The current X-books (well most) are better than they have been in years.

Aw Crap. They Seem To Be Going Apesh*t With The Whole "Time Travel" Thing...

X-factor is great. UXF has potential. the other 10 books? not so much.

The next Marvel "event" after Infinity is going to be a time travel oriented affair. Unless that's what Infinity is going to be about. Possible. But the seeds are all there: 1) Time gem dissappears in New Avengers when all the other Infinity gems go kablooie 2) Original XMen in the present 3) Spidey 2099 showing up in Superior Spidey 4) Age of Ultron 5) Kang, the Apicalypse Twins, Red Skull/Onslaught and all the time travel shenanigans in Uncanny Avengers 6) Cap & Cable fighting a time travelling Trask in A+X. And then there's this business.

This... is immensely awful.

How come Beast can come up with a way to time travel but cant reverse his mutation?

Okay...this is just getting silly now.

But I can't really say I'm an X-Men fan so it doesn't really bother me too much. I was intrigued by the whole "bring the original X-Men to the present" thing because it gave us Jean back but this is all just getting silly.

I still don't even understand how mutants are still prejudiced and hated by mankind some 70 years later, with them living in a city that has like literally 100 superheroes...superheroes that can't stop crime for sh*t.

Uggh...f**k this, gimme Peter Parker back and the X-Men can all die from whatever for all I care...

Bring back Daken! Hes the [frick]in man! Better at killing than Wolverine or Deadpool, as savage as Sabretooth and as manipulative as Mystique. Dude is the shit

All New X-Men, Uncanny X-Men and GotG are the only marvel books I'm enjoying atm, this better be good, if they're taking more of my money it better be worth it.

Ah, Now I See Deadpool, Fox Must Have Had Some Input,LOL!

Hmmmm I know nothing of the event so I won't judge but really don't think marvel needs another event I may check it out since I'm reading the X-Books but I mean from what I'm seeing this is something my feeble brain could've come up with lol

"Lets make Beast...mutate more"

"Lets get wolverine...to have a son"

"Molly Hayes...grows up"

"Ice man...ice thing or ice hulk"

"Deadpool...lets give rob liefield a call"

Hahahaha I'm not hating I'm a marvelite but from what I'm seeing and my personal opinion this don't look too good I pray to the comic book gods that I'm wrong....

Someone should post some boobie pics :)

All New X-Men is the best CB series going right now.

judging by his blue skin,red hair and costume im guessing wolverine and mystique have a son...
silverhawk

and this beast looks so stupid, half and half? no!!! if anything just revert him to full original style.

These character sketches are terrible. Maybe that's the point, the future x-men come from a dystopian future so it only makes sense that their designs would be dystopian as well.
Bearjew
Bearjew - 4/28/2013, 3:45 PM
Seriously though why can Beast time travel but not cure himself?
marvel72
marvel72 - 4/28/2013, 4:15 PM
