XMEN GOLD #12 Spoilers and Discussion

I think I've only bought up to issue 4 and I'm glad that I did. It constantly sounds like every issue is a "miss". So many things are being retreaded. An entire issue to a new alien, but no real follow up about the rest of the brotherhood. Storm is probably still unconscious

This entire issue couls have been summed up in a flash back, this shpuld have been more set-up for mojo world or at least somting that wont be recaped in the story after mojo. Unless what ever his name is being set up to kill a major X-Men this is a wast.

You got it! When does the rest of the team besides Kitty get some time to shine? Personally, I hate when Marvel takes an entire issue away from the regular cast of a book. I can't wait for Guggenheim to go. I like the team members so I can't wait to see what a different writer would do with them.

Wait a minute Issue 25 of both blue and gold should drop right when ressurexion Phoenix ends and bunn did say he was finishing up a few series, so I'm guessing that May April we'll get a relaunch, witch makes scence maby a few roster changes and creative teams with jean and maby xavier coming back. Wonder what will change, hopfully less alternt universe time travle crap.

Astonishing has a finite number of issues left. That'd allow for a complete relaunch of the X-Men team books, making room for Uncanny X-Men, New Mutants, X-Force etc. Very exciting!!!

Uncanny led by Jean Grey with Storm to back her up. Xavier as a mentor.

XForce led by Emma Frost w Magik to back her up. Cable as a mentor.

Two sides of the same coin (and their muses). Same goal, different methods.

Actually no, cause then I'd die.

How about a Kitty led team with Jean, Emma, Storm and Magik has her backup singers?

No?

Oh god...I smell set up for a space story with this new guy. I don't want Rachel to get stuck out in space again!!!

I know! Look at how Chuck Dixon introduced Bane to Batman, incredible story telling.

I thought this issue was enjoyable.

I anticipate the salty tears of the alt-right and 4channers when the X-Men get to beat up on Kologoth's army.

**ExodusCloak** · 09-20-2017, 08:22 PM

Lol I'm aware boards don't reflect the entire buying fanbase but it's been quite a while since I've seen a thread if the flagship book generate so much discussion...

Borrowing some of Vulcan's beats here i guess?

Odds are the Gold Team will be forced into space to punch some space nazis.

Those arm bands are intentional.

Have Storm punch some out as well if you really want to see their anger.

Nothing angers them more than a powerful woman of color fighting oppression.

I think it was ironic that the alien keeps getting mistaken for a mutant everywhere.

**Knives** · 09-21-2017, 05:37 AM

An entire comic issue only to serve as an introduction to the next villains and plots

. Readers can ignore this issue and will not miss anything.

The part with Mojo was funny from a meta perspective is as if they knew what the readers are thinking so a crossover is needed to turn the table

After seeing the scans, I'd say it.....was...interesting???? I really dont know how to feel about this issue. But these two panels got a reaction out of me.

You've got to be fucking kidding. A Nazi alien gets more attention than Storm. I guess.....what a weird thing to put into the story for no reason. Would've been even more on the nose if he kept his name "Kleevus".

I actually liked this scene.
