I'll give it a try, but this sort of "ongoing" solo book often seems to end up as a mini or maxi series at best.

I have no previous experience involving Stephanie Phillips and her work, so I'll...

Now that was unexpected.

I've seen Mr. Thorne on various interviews over the years and he's come across as a writer with very interesting ideas, so in that respect I'm very curious about how he'll...

Well, they could always ask an alien to do it. It worked before!

I thought it was an excellent issue and brought back some of the necessary connections to what Hickman was setting up all the way back, so I'm glad we got more Xavier and Moira content with nuance....

The good kind of crazy, at least on this half of the story.

People are overreacting to the most vanilla quotes with zero context and vague answers.

If anything, I expected something better from the interview in terms of nuance, but I guess Marvel doesn't...

I'm taking this with a huge grain of salt, because plans might have changed and rumors mixed with facts are not great for analysis.

Maystorm might be inspired by Storm, but she's someone else entirely. No problem on my end.

Let's try to be objective here and look at the big picture:

a) You've got X-Men 97 coming out soon, which already features a very traditional X-Men team with famous figures and will at least...

I'm going to buy this based on Peach Momoko's previous work.

As already discussed, this isn't trying to be "more of the same" so it'll be radically different. Which I'm fine with.

1) It's a teaser.

2) It's a teaser with bad/awkward art.

3) It's a teaser with bad/awkward art and without any context.

I think any and all speculation will be fruitless at this point, since...

Honestly, I liked the issue.

Confusing? Nah, they have left a couple of open-ended questions for now, but the big picture is very clear to me so far.

It probably helps that I don't suffer from...

To be fair, I think that's meant to raise the stakes...admittedly rather artificially, since escaping alone wouldn't objectively paint old Hank as a villain, despite Black Tom's nonsense.

Man, this version of X-Force really loves jumping to conclusions. That's what I dislike about this issue.

The art looks great and I'm enjoying Gillen's endgame writing far more than Duggan's at the moment, so this will likely read pretty well.

If you're limited to House/Powers and by extension Inferno, then sure. Whatever was Hickman's original idea for the "final boss", he never got to tell us. It's very hard to jump to any conclusions...

This is a complicated situation, because I can almost agree with your points. Almost. Sure, a few or at least a couple of those ideas could have been further explored by Hickman...but would we really...

Honestly, Beast already has accumulated too much bad baggage over the years even if you ignored everything that happened during his recent X-Force stint and kept the rest.

Regardless of whatever...

I think it's a moot point to get too technical about this and have a very scholarly debate, because:

a) Generally speaking, "the ends justify the means", at least when it comes to Marvel/DC...

I imagine Percy is more concerned about wrapping up the big things in the limited page count he has available, but yeah...it would have been nice to see more of an interaction. Shame, since he seems...

Peach Momoko isn't an X-Men fan, but that is precisely why I want to check out her work.

She isn't going to do the "same old, same old" one more time. Rather, she will try to tell new stories with...

Randomly, I had a dream about the upcoming X-Force arc the other day...and one of the cliffhangers in my dream was that "good" Beast had shown up, but "evil" Beast was persuading him to turn against...

Interesting. If anything, the old show was one where they leaned towards preserving detail as opposed to animation fluidity much of the time and especially later seasons started looking a bit ugly in...

I dislike their continued unwillingness to show a public promotional video for this project.

It's not going to look that close to the original show for various reasons, but giving us a better idea...

See, this particular point is questionable for a handful of reasons. Based on Hickman's 2019 talking points, his plans were always meant to be multi-year. Exact duration would be determined by...
