[QUOTE=Woozie;5187451]Hickman, had an entire arc of his FIRST BOOK in Marvel, Dedicated to Gorgon getting the two swords named in this event, in which he ends up shattering both, while killing the God of Fear, Phobos.[/QUOTE]
Is he distantly related to Adam X the Extreme? Because that sounds like someone trying way to hard to make a character look cool.
So i read the wikipedia article on him. Created by Mark Millar? Well that explains a lot. Just look at all the powerups they have piled on him.
I was joking before, but now i would actualy enjoy seeing him get offed in an unceremoniously manner right at the start, because this character sounds perfect for that kind of thing to happen to him.

First issue I didnt care for
-
It was a fun read indeed...love the dialogues and the art.... but i was a little disappointed as well we didn't discover more on the mystery of numbers of swords, spots on the circle and sword bearers.
Must confess I was also disappointed Jamie didn't even comment on the fact Kwannon was there. A funny remark on the whole Betsy/Kwannon situation would fit this book and Jamie as a character.

Once again a really fun read. It's weird because usually books I read that have some attempts at humor it comes off eye rollingly silly and forced instead of fun. This is not the case with this book, it's legitimately funny. He's really got the characters personalities down well, except for maybe Havok but I don't think anyone's known what to do with Havok since the 90s. Sinister was great of course, and Nanny once again being the source of a lot of humor as well. And Empath. Sigh. he's going to either end up dying for real, for good, or he's going to do something that will cause everyone else to die.

Idk Jamie seems to enjoy trolling Betsy, less so Psylocke. I'm pretty sure he just sees Kwannon as a non entity and not worth his time.

This Zeb Wells is a fantastic writer. He makes the interaction between team members really interesting.
The internal feud between Empath and Greycrow is interesting, hope they won't end up killing each other!
His story telling is fantastic too, just like back in his New Mutants days.
This issue is just a filler but a hilarious one, there is no sword bearer here unlike Cable and New Mutants issues this week.

Before I even read the issue, I wanted this interaction between Kwannon and Jamie, and now I'm disappointed
Hopefully we will still have some new interactions between Betsy and Kwannon as they are both part of the event

Still....it would have been fun
-
Yeah, I also expected Jaime to say something totally offensive about Psylocke and end up with a sword to his neck again.
This was very fun, I'm starting to love these characters.

[QUOTE=Perfection/Emma 2;5187395]Mama is on a team called Marauders[/QUOTE]
I know. I think the use of the villain names is a bit odd. Marauders was just a name, Hellions was an offset of an organization that pretty much still exists.
-
This issue had a lot of great lines.
Empath: Where the @#$% are we, Narnia or something?
Sinister: You see? Emma loves it. Though someone should tell her face.
-
I feel like this is the least important tie-in so far, but it's also probably my favorite after the first XoS book. I really love Zeb Wells's take on these characters
-
I really liked this issue it was truly a blast to read through. Sinister conversing with... well anyone was awesome, although the scenes with the council are the best. I love the cultured lunatic.
-
I loved this issue. Sometimes books need to just be fun instead of deep. Empath is great...

[QUOTE=Viteh;5187463]I am loving Sinister and Exodus' interactions. This was a really fun read.[/QUOTE]
Finally Exodus gets a plotline, and gets one over the annoying dandy
