I come when there's something to take but I never give anything back.
I know what you want. But it is not here. It's gone and it will never ever come again...
New Mutants is my most nostalgic read for the X-Men and that's partly due to Bill Sienkiewicz's art.
I would absolutely love a new modern-day New Mutants book written by Sienkiewicz's on art duty. New Mutants has always been more bizarre, horror, supernatural, and mystical. It's a genre the X-Line is currently missing. Have Moonstar, Karma, and Magik head this with a team that combines other members throughout the New Mutants run.
Slap a wonderful writer on it and take my money.
“Have courage and be kind. Where there is kindness there is goodness, and where there is goodness there is magic.” ― Cinderella
The New Mutants are my favorite teen team of all time. I remember saving up my lunch money to buy New Mutants Special Edition #1. They were always off on some "caper", Wolfsbane talking shit about Magik as they traveled through Limbo, Dani accidentally pulling shit out of people's head and I loved when Sam would always say, "Ah'm invulnerable when Ah'm blastin'!"
Its really amazing how my appreciation for this batch of X-ers has evolved over time.
Illyana will probably always be my ride-or-die of the New Mutants, but in most recent years I've fell madly in love with 3 whom previously never registered on my appreciation radar.
Sunspot, Boom Boom and Shatterstar.
Its incredible how a talented writer can elevate and foster the folks I was indifferent to and shuffle them firmly into my pantheon of faves.
Also, whats been done to Douglas is just shameful.
Alright, I got X-Force for the backup and the main story was ehhhh pretty alright, but let's look at the real conte--
