Loving this title & can't wait for Battle Of The Atom.

SN: They should let Steve Epting or Coipel draw an arc for this book.

Hijack's power will really come in handy once he gets some control over it.

IM TELLING YOU STRAIGHT UP WHEN I SAY..THE X VISOR ON CYCLOPS IS NOT AS COOL AS HIS PHOENIX FIVE ONE...PHOENIX FIVE ONE LOOKED SO MUCH MORE BAD ASS.

Im sorry, everyones entitled to their opinion, but if you think this art sucks youre a moron, plain and simple. I am so glad that Marvel is branching out into interesting art styles, all that traditional overmuscled Jim Lee/ Joe Mad, everyone looks the same, all the girls have tiny tiny waists and huge boobs BS is embarrassing and belongs in the 90s...... People who say artists like Frazier Irving suck remind me of my 9 year old self being disappointed when Mignola filled in for Liefeld on X-Force.... I was an idiot.....

Irving is a genius. His art is actually beautiful. I loved his stuff on Batman.

@Ineedrevelation

Where is your better illustrated international comic? I would love to see it.

Only artists, whose art sucks without a question, is Rob Liefeld and Greg Land. Irving's work on this series is great.

Great book, but fix the art the last few books have given me a headache art wise

Yes Frazier Irving was on Batman and Robin when it was Richard Grayson and Damian Wayne. I love the book, art and costume on Cyclops. This is my 3rd favorite look for him.

I don't mind new art styles, but when the female characters all look the same in the face (check the cover shot) it gets annoying.

The new suit for Slim is...ugh. This art is almost as annoying as Rob Liefeld's...ALMOST.

My favorite obscure artist would be Mark Texeira.

Regardless of the art, this book has been rad. I agree with those who say it though, this art style isn't a fit for this book.

Still have this poster.

I wish I could play the Marvel Heroes game but I have a mac and it isn’t available.
Minato
Minato - 8/22/2013, 4:14 PM
Ive always liked the hood on Slim

Minato
Minato - 8/22/2013, 4:21 PM
I never liked the concept of bootcamp. If I wanted windows I wouldn’t’ve (what a word) bought a Mac in the first place.

So far I'm liking this series. It took me a while for it to catch on.

I don't mind Cyclops' outfit, but dear god that art is atrocious. I can't even decipher who any of the other X-men are besides Magik. Makes me glad I'm only paying for my Valiant comics and not the garbage Marvel has turned all things X into.

@MaskOfRico

I don't have too much of a problem with the anatomy, despite it being borderline sketch-placeholder standard in some cells. "Why yes, that lopsided trapezoid is a persons torso, you can tell by the yellow x on the matt black"

What I do take issue with is the washed out, vague, watercolour mess that the inking is. Its trying too hard to borrow from impressionism and ends up just being a nonsensical mess. The style doesn't translate well to small action-packed cells, and it hasn't been impersonated well to start with.

In short, yes, art is all subjective and down to opinion, but as someone who knows about art. Its been poorly imitated, implemented and was a bad choice for the medium, so yes, technically, it is bad and for you to say that anyone who thinks that is a moron is not only arrogant, but wrong in addition to that. But thanks for your closed minded input.

Also, story looks really good, and I'm actually quite a fan of the new suit, although it has blatantly borrowed strongly from Tron, and the visor is functionally impossible (he couldn't see out of it, unless Cyclops' mutation now involved his eye placement being move, or actually having one eye). But as with a lot of people, I just couldn't get away with the art. Huge put-off for me.
