Yes, Marvel have proved that they know what they're doing with adaptations of their own franchises. There's no reason to think that Marvel wouldn't do a similarly good job with the X-Men.

No. Deadpool had appeal beyond comic-book fans as it also worked as a funny comedy movie and word of mouth spread fast that it was hilarious.

The X-Men films, especially Singer's X-Men films, have...

I don't know about anyone else, but I find it really obnoxious when people make semi-veiled accusations and insinuations about other people's motives. If you want to argue with the OP, don't be...

That's one of the most accurate analyses of how comic-readers can destroy their own favourite characters I've ever read. It's completely true. If you just judge the quality of a book on how many...

Very poor indeed. His initial issues showed some potential - particularly the setup with Magneto seemingly double-crossing Cyclops with Shield - but in summary his run is a fine example of pure bad...

It's not that photorealism is bad. Bill Sienkiewicz or Dave McKean or Alex Maleev (and many others) can do photorealism when they choose to and can make it fit the story. Land just doesn't care...

That's the first time I've seen the words "Right artist" and "Anka" in the same conversation, except maybe with "is defintely not" in the middle.

There were a couple more where Bobby said something like "Are you sure? Maybe I'm bi..." and Jean said "No, you're totally gay!". Seriously.

It is quite difficult to separate the revelation from the execution. I still can't help but think that, say, Peter David could've had Bobby come out as gay and make you believe it. Mr Bendis just...

The best that can be said of issue 600 is that it wasn't dreadful. There were some snatches of Bendis' old ear for dialogue, Immonen and Pichelli are still good at drawing, the Iceman closet-exiting...

I think the biggest problem with it is that rather than there being any reason to make Iceman - that particular character - gay, Bendis just picked up on the tongue-in-cheek fan theories about Iceman...

The art looks much less dreadful than I was expecting from Ramos. He's upped his game!

The last panel read a little strangely though. Surely Storm has known Xavier long enough to call him...

Nicieza's X-Force was never really the "black ops kill squad" concept anyway - especially not after Liefeld left. It was basically another X-Men team, with the same action/sci-fi/soap-opera...

I think the problem was that it started being hinted at by Jeph Loeb and Loeb's quite a bad writer. If had been developed by Fabian Nicieza or Peter David without having Loeb in the middle, it might...

Oh, I agree. It doesn't make any sense, power-wise, for Captain America to be able to KO Warpath so (apparently) easily, but I don't think for an instant that it was racism thing - it was just "star...

I'd be fine with the X-titles getting cancelled until Marvel get the rights back from Fox and are willing to make an effort with the titles.

I gather that Lemire's a good writer (I'm not so...

How on Earth are you getting racism from that panel?

It's an A-List versus B-list thing. Captain America wins that fight because he's Captain America. You just don't show Captain America getting a...

Hmmm, I didn't like Bunn's Magneto (yeah, yeah, I was the only one, but I thought he didn't "get" the character of Magneto at all. It was a decent enough "Magnetic Punisher" book, I guess, but...

X-Force (vol 1) #13-43 - Classic X-Men action-soap-opera by Fabian Nicieza, without the influence of Rob Liefeld, but with Greg Capullo then Tony Daniel on art.

I don't know why reviewers always comment that simple, cartoony art is reminiscent of David Aja. Aja's generally a photorealist, he just uses a fairly sparse line for his characters when he draws...

I'd imagine it's pretty easy to cut pages out of Bendis books. You just chop out 10 pages or so of characters standing next to each other saying "What?", "What's happening?", "...", "Look!" etc and...

I don't have a problem with Teen Jean, per se, apart from the fact that Bendis has written everybody pretty poorly for several years.

However, there's no point pretending it's the same character...
