Yep. Saw someone else recommend Excalibur (Claremont and Davis and then just Davis), which is tremendous fun. I recently picked up Old Man Logan and enjoyed it, also enjoyed Rucka's Wolverine (not...

You're gonna be disappointed, but there might be some moments of pleasantly surprised mixed in. Stuff I've enjoyed coming from a similar place are series like Old Man Logan (past and present),...
I've skipped out on the past ... many years of X-Books, but I recently reread the Illyana and Storm limited series (always a good idea) and picked up EXM 1-7 and... I liked how she was written in...
Are you talking about the first few issues or Ibanez?
Having caught up with all seven issues, now (and I have the feeling that reading them all at once has left me feeling a lot less of the...
I really don't want to spend the energy on reading anything outside of EXM right now, so I'm not even sure who this Kurt is or what reality/earth/timeline he's from... (the wikipedia page for Secret...
I'm still pushing through ish 5-7, but has Bobby as Deadpool Lite been a thing for a while now? I mean... "It IS A GRANDFATHER - GRANDDAUGHTER THING RIGHT?" Yikes.
My last post was in July, and...
you CANNOT overstate the impact of good lighting, honestly -- set photos tell you next to nothing about how something will look on screen
Yeah, honestly, as much I genuinely enjoyed Storm's solo comic (and Nightcrawler's, because I will take what I can get) -- it was almost because it gave me a different experience of the X-team...
Aside from highlighting, like, the full spectrum of Complicated Feelings I have toward Claremont (and Whedon, for good measure-- of all the "well, I see what you were trying to do butyoukindafailed"...
"Mutant" used as any kind of prejudice metaphor without intersectionality isn't just dated, it's bullshit on every level of worldbuilding. Gah. One of the biggest disappointments in getting into...
Seconding X-Men '92, it's fun-- as is Years of Future Past!
Between the end of Claremont's original run and now I've only nitpicked select stuff (CC's return with Davis UXM, Rucka's run on...
Edit: Nvm, Supernature has the definitive reply to this thread.
OP did specify that they are looking at the Uncanny Masterworks collection, which only includes the Claremont team you describe. I'd say it's worth the price hike from bargain bins for that...
In case you haven't seen it yet this guide was invaluable to me. But you have it easy in the beginning. Just read those 17 years of Claremont, "Masterworks" is just one of the several forms they come...
Yeah the only reason I'm picking these up is for the art and Lemire's takeover...
Kudos to White, honestly.
I don't share his conclusive disappointment-- I'm still mildly excited for an R-rated Deadpool movie-- but I agree with pretty much every point he makes. When I watched...
Seriously this is why I only show up to this hobby annually ...
But reading the interview with Lemire and Bunn has my enthusiasm rising from tepid to hype. I love that line-up, I hope he does...
I've been crawling through this thread looking for something that struck me as reasonable for pages and jeez, finally...
I only edged into reading Marvel ongoing titles because Nightcrawler was...
I honestly have to wonder if getting back into comics after a few months'/years' break will ever be less painful than a skullcrushing hangover.
Looks like last time I posted here was in September...
*wishful sigh*
and honestly, I'd love to see some part of the Dark Phoenix saga, space opera and all, done right. We do space now, I'm pretty sure GotG proved audiences can handle wacky space...
Great blog update, Sundowhn. I was looking out for reports of 'Crawler in other titles, because my Marvel lurking has gone way by the wayside. I'm pared down to Nightcrawler, Ms. Marvel, Magneto, and...
faaaar from the worst cover I've seen on the sexual objectification scale (that said, anyone who does take issue has the right to air their feelings without being slapped with a tired 'ol "you have...
This. In fact, I'm kinda mad. One, because I wish everything else with X-Men involved was this good, and second because I geeked out of orbit when Greg Pak reblogged my review of Storm #1 to his...
I think that review is spot on... "humility" was the exact word that popped into my head while reading, as well, esp because I am reading CC's very last UXM run concurrently and end up...
You're definitely not. All I can imagine is Davis Excalibur Rachel judging this look so hard.
