Uncanny X-Men #4 (spoilers/discussion)

[DIVINITY]

The only thing I enjoyed was Legion being crazy.

Ha! Me too. Dude is bugged out, but I’m curious to see what him and Jamie cook up...

Oh, and Armor. (Her Team!) That’s my girl...

[Del torro]

This is sad. No Surrender was so much better than this.

[True Believer Tony]

Another fine issue. If this wasn't weekly, I would be losing my mind because it's moving pretty darn slow.

I like the Hisako stuff, wish the dialogue was a bit sharper because I agree, Jean felt very off in that scene.

I also can't figure out why with the tons of great X-Kids around, we end up with Glob so often. Why are writers so attracted to him? He's sort of the worst.

This is sad. No Surrender was so much better than this.

No Surrender had 3 better writers than this.

This is sad. No Surrender was so much better than this.

Ouch. I don't know. No Surrender was so dull I gave up halfway through.

[Del torro]

Ouch. I don't know. No Surrender was so dull I gave up halfway through.

This might pick up in the second half, we've gotten through most of the set up by now. #5 is the last of the first half and should have the Legion team set up.

6-10,will probably have the Nate team, Xmen team and Legion team interact, tips will be more interesting then

[Purplevit]

It was fine.

I loved Glob/Madrox interaction at the end.

[Jesse-James]

Oh, give me a break, No Surrender was boring as ^*($

[Del torro]

Oh, give me a break, No Surrender was boring as ^*($

I dunno, I wasn't a fan of a lot of the characters in it but I quite enjoyed it, it was an 9/10 as a whole.

Disassembled 1-3 had things that bugged me, but I still liked them 6-7/10 combined. #4 is the only one that I have major issues with

[Wiccan]

I also thought No Surrender was boring. I think this has been much more entertaining despite the issues.

[bladeofdarkness]

I feel kinda emberessed it took me this long to figure out why Armor would be so in favor of giving Legion a fair shake.

Legion's heart is in the right place, and he wants to help.
He could screw up and make things worse, but he still means well.
And he might just end up doing a lot of good in the end if given a chacen.
The X-men on the other hand, would rather dismiss him off hand, consider him too much of a risk to be allowed to help, and won't even hear him out.

In other word, they treat him much like they treat the X-kids during this arc so far.
No wonder Armor shows more sympathy towards him - they're both in the same boat to a considerable extent.

No Surrender had both great character moments and exciting fight scenes with two sets of challenging villains. Meanwhile in Dissassembled so far we have the X-Men going through the motions facing random threats (dinosaurs? angry mobs? what was even the point of blowing up the school and have the X-Men pretend to be dead when two pages later they reveal themselves to the horseman?) and most of the cast just seems to be there as fill in.

[gifted]

I absolutely loved No Surrender, personally. It was well-written, not many surface plot holes, and efficiently utilized the characters. It felt like each character had a voice and uniquely contributed to the overall plot. Disassembled has a bunch of characters that are just for fill in and have generic dialogue during fight sequences.

I'm still highly enjoying UXM, but it isn't as well-written or put together as No Surrender.

[nx01a]

No Surrender had the needless Jarvis plot and the Voyager foolishness and zero casualties... but it was enjoyable and had far better art than Disassembled.
*reminds himself to order the No Surrender tpb for X-Mas*

[Johnrevenge]

The only bad thing from No Surrender was that it was followed by Aaron's Avengers lmao.
It was a nice story arc with lots of character developement. Dissambled as many have said is that some of those characters are more for wallpaller fights than other stuff, but despite that I'm still liking it, even tough I'm wishing to slap Jean Grey for every New X-men student that have been neglected and treated with condescendence for all these years lmao.
