I mean I know people wanted white Betsy back, but wow!!
Where is Spiral when you need her?
We should compare 1st issue to 1st issue... unless You want to "prove" that R+G has better sales than Astonishing because 1st issue of R+G outsold Astonishing 6...
X-Men Gold 1 $4.99 Marvel 114,332
X-Men Gold 6 $3.99 Marvel 48,569
X-Men Gold 12 $3.99 Marvel 41,657 (36,4%)
Astonishing X-Men 1 $4.99 Marvel 122,287
Astonishing X-Men 6 $3.99 Marvel 35,437 (28,9%)
As You see... more people stayed with 12th issue of Gold than with 6th issue of Astonishing. Other team books:
Extraordinary X-Men 1 $4.99 Marvel 133,716
Extraordinary X-Men 6 $3.99 Marvel 47,572 (25,5%)
Uncanny Avengers 1 $4.99 Marvel 105,234
Uncanny Avengers 6 $3.99 Marvel 41,567 (38,5%)
Weapon X 1 $3.99 Marvel 68,874
Weapon X 6 $3.99 Marvel 35,607 (51,6%)
Yes... even Weapon X 6 outsold Astonishing 6. Only Extraordinary X-men were losing readers faster than Astonishing.
Which is more than Rogue and Gambit did.Ehhh, is this a joke right, Colossus development? When???? When Colossus open his mouth is just to say "Katya" "Kitty".

Well by that point both bodies had been melded together to the point where even Logan couldn't tell the difference and the tp's amongst the X-Men couldn't tell the difference...
Then the Asian body also died, and when she was recreated and brought back to life by her brother, she was placed in an Asian body.
So for all intents and purposes she isn't in the stolen body anymore. This current body, an Asian one, is Betsy's own. Not to mention that her original body has been destroyed twice since then as well.

I think its obvious he's not Xavier. Thats Shadow King. There is a reason his speech bubbles are still black. Thats the most blatant clue. I also believe thats why this book is so self contained bc Xavier isnt actually back and wont be outside of this title
I dont know if Im in the minority or the majority but I loving this title and I love X. Hes been in the Astral plane fighter his most hated enemy for what it seemed to him as hundreds of years (if I remember correctly; someone will tell me if Im wrong) so his shady characteristics are appropriate. I think all the characters are used decently, without one outshining the others. But I could go without OML being there. The different art teams for each issue hasnt been a problem because I havent hated any of the artist as of yet.
B+
I am also loving the book and X. And the changing art is not bothering me in the way I thought it would, because I'm liking all of them. Even the least interesting ones are still good.
Regarding X, I think it's not "our Charles", that's why he is calling himself X. I'm seeing it like, Charles spend so much time on the Astral Plane with such a disturbing presence of Farouk, that he became something else. He is a corrupted version of himself. He might have the memories Charles had, but he is something else, and we should not think about him as Charles, nor the X-men. And I may be wrong, but I think that by the end of issue 12, Charles will not become his old self.
I don't know why people continue to have Betsy' s transformation wrong. They never "swapped" bodies. Spiral mixed the DNA. Memories, powers and skills etc.... of the 2. Creating two almost identical Eurasian girls, who shared the same memories. Revanche just so happened to end up with the bionic eyes. The proof is when Revanche shows up. Not Professor x, Nor Jean Grey, Nor Wolverine could tell them apart.
When Jamie brought her back he said he did so exactly as she was before in the same spot even where she died. He made some alterations to her powers but she is still technically an Eurasian female.
