JFM run is my favourite. Character first storytelling is my preference and Moore is one of the best to write in the X-franchise for that (even if some of his plots could be a bit goofy). I was always...

This issue was more interested in threading continuity together and retconning old stories than it was in actually telling an interesting story itself.

Don't get me wrong I enjoyed it to some...

Great Idea for a thread.

Favourite New:

Kwannon & Greycrow was cute, in a I can't belive I'm shipping these two kind of way.

Karma & Galura. I'm glad Marvel let Karma kiss another woman....

Completley agree - I really enjoyed seeing the New Mutants interact with Magneto and thought the characters all sounded like their 80's selves.

But I was pretty meh on the Magneto seeing ghosts/...

I feel really dumb for not retrospectivley working out that Stasis's clone family were Sinisters from the Further Adventure of Cyclops and Phoenix mini unitl it was really clearly spelled out in this...

Really fun issue and I can't wait to read a Gillen penned issue from Selene's perspective. Loved the Elizabeth Bathory line from her today.

Not been reading X-Force but thought this was really...

Yeah it's really weird. It never felt like Spurrier particuarly liked the character in Way/Legions of X. Kurt always seemed like an afterthought that was there to boost sales so Spurrier could write...

This was pretty fun. Any thing that heavily references 80's Captain Britain and Claremont/Davis Excalibur is a major win for me.

I'm glad the Rogue/Gambit/Jubilee etc... cast have finally been...

Thanks for doing this again Master of Sound!

Not too suprised with any of the results other than being slightly perplexed as to what people see in the super bland developed off-panel Synch/Old...

This!

Except for Ink. Ink may well be the worst x-men character of all time.

Her old name doesn't make any grammatical sense in Vietnamese.

It was a pretty soft retcon in the story, she just states everyone has been pronouncing it slightly wrong for years and this is her...

I've been disliking the art for this arc and think you nailed as to why. Although it is a hard act following Rod Reis!

I quite like Escapade as a character even if she was a bit of a Poochie for...

They are one of those 00's Claremont creations that no one uses but him like Bloody Bess or Tullamore Voge. Don't think they've ever been linked to the purifiers.

Enjoyed this, I wasn't a huge...

Thanks for the recommendations. I found the early Claremont issues pretty fun. It all felt very bronze age Spider-Man but with Peter Parker recast as a Posh, Southern English bloke.

Kate Fraser...

What a great thread.

I love the Braddock family.

While I haven't loved all of Howard's Excalibur/KOX run I have loved how she's handled the family and brought back characters like Tom Lennox,...

100% this.

Just personal taste, but the 2 best era's of X-Force are post X-Cutioner's Song when Cannonball is leading the team and the Road Trip Era when Sam & Dani join the cast again.

No...

I'm quite excited for this.

I really like Howard's Betsy, a character I loved in the Outback Era but couldn't care less about from Post Siege-Perilous until Jim Zub fixed the mess in Mystery in...

It's taken 14 issues with Synch on the team for someone to draw Synch's rainbow aura only for it to be an actual rainbow and have nothing to do with Synch himself...

Anyway this was a fun issue,...

Would love to see the S.T.R.I.K.E stuff resolved. I got way too excited seeing Tom Lennox & co come back on Krakoa.

I just found the whole people hate having a mutant Captain Britain thing way...

Has Captain Britain ever had that much do to with the country?

Brian was mostly based in the UK, but its not like patriotism was ever a big part of the character or anything.

If anything the...

Well that was a pretty fun conclusion to a pretty good series.

Still unsure about Howard's dialogue and poor grasp on some characters but the plot was overall fun and Otherworld continues to be...

I've been enjoying Knights of X & Excalibur, but now I'm really starting to understand why the Gambit fans dislike those book so much. I feel much the same way about Spurrier's Nightcrawler in...

This is surely the strongest 'Flagship Tripartite' we've ever had in the X-Office?

Since X-Treme/New/ Uncanny all ran together in the early 00's I don't think we've ever had such a strong line of...
