I know that the Krakoa era is wildly popular and I'm not telling you or anyone not to like what you like... but a couple of things.

You say that just because one character says something doesn't...

Hated it, but then I stopped reading most of the X-titles when I realised that there wasn't some subtle mind control going on and I'm really supposed to be cheering for mutant supremacy and things...

"How very human of you."

I know a lot of people love the way the X-Men use human as an insult, but I still can't stand this.

I like the X-Men so much more in non-X-books these days.

I suspect I'm in the minority here but I cannot stand Vulcan.

If the last I saw of him was being eaten by a big giant head I would be overjoyed. :-)

I've read on forums that Illyana is left handed, but I was flicking through the Magik LS and Demon Bear and she has the Soulsword in her right hand.

Has it ever been established in the comics that...

I know I'm coming in late but I have to say that while I enjoyed this a lot more than X-Men #1, it's not helping me shake my "the X-Men are pod people" vibe.

I cannot believe that no-one, not...

Honestly? Find some excuse to send her into space again and never have her come back.

She's my favourite character and after Gold and Extermination I have accepted that she's never going to be...

Hoping someone can help me out with these.

1. Her name. It was first given as Amara Juliana Olivia Aquilla, but now seems to be listed everywhere as "Olivans". Which is considered canon? And is...

Can anyone suggest any comics that do a good job of showcasing Meggan's powers? I'm trying to get a good handle on what she can and can't do.

Thanks!

I'll start this post by admitting that I've read a lot more Marvel comics than DC comics.

That being said, I picked up Titans #22 on a whim when it came out and I was interested enough in Donna...

I much prefer the costume on the annual cover to what she's wearing now.

Rachel looking like Jean was referenced as early as Uncanny X-Men #189 (if not before!) when Tessa first sees Rachel and thinks:

The redhead - her resemblance to JEAN GREY is uncanny! Are they...

My conclusion from this issue is I'd rather be reading a book about Ghost Jean than Teen Jean.

You know, I thought an issue where Rachel wasn't rendered unconscious would be an improvement. How wrong I was.

I'm with those who've said Illyana's outfit on the plane was the only good bit of...

I suspect because then Marvel wouldn't have had the big crossover event they wanted!

But really, much as it pains me to say it since she's probably my favourite character, Rachel just isn't that...

Both Rachel and Illyana are favourite characters of mine. I've always wondered why so many people seem to like the idea of the two of them at each others' throats over Kitty, or else seem to like...

You can severely reduce a character's power levels without making them a helpless child. Look at Nate Grey in New Mutants. I would have been far happier if Rachel's powers had been reduced to the...

I'd rather not have Claremont back, and I loved his first Uncanny run, his New Mutants and his Excalibur. But since then...

Look at his later Uncanny run. He undid all of the character development...

I hate to say it but I think the cape IS growing on me. It's been drawn longer in the last few issues (or to my eyes it looks that way) and I think that helps. A bit.

Rachel still needs to ditch...

X-Men Gold hasn't been as good as I'd hoped it would be. I'm mostly here for Rachel, and I was very happy with how Rachel was last written by this writer, so I could have done without her passing...

Cards on the table: I have a LOT more X-Men comics than Inhumans comics and I read about the X-Men for several years before I even HEARD of the Inhumans.

In fact, I first started reading about the...

I was only vaguely aware of the Inhumans before War of Kings, which I read due to the involvement of Havok & co. That got me into Guardians of the Galaxy, Nova and to a lesser extent the Inhumans,...

I genuinely find it hard to sympathise with the Inhumans' position.

The Inhumans want the cloud to be left alone so new Inhumans can have super powers. The mutants need the cloud to be dealt with...

On a tangent, roughly how old was Rachel meant to be during her Marvel Girl phase? Cyclops refers to her as "just a kid" in Deadly Genesis and she's apparently too young for Viper to kill. Any ideas?
