    Also, THIS is why Rahzzah is rapidly becoming one of my favourite cover artists:

    I honestly thought that was Psylocke at first

    So whats the deal with Shogo? He is a baby in the current Uncanny issue but was a toddler that could walk and talk in Gen X

    Its the usual seemingly inescapable conundrum of the artist(?) being assigned a subject they are unfamiliar with.

    Age, particularly that of YOUTHS, is challenging for many an artist out there. Or they were supplied inaccurate reference material. So too do artists often suffer with accurately conveying non-white ethnicity. Or....breasts that aren't below a D cup.

    but which artist is wrong? Is Shogo supposed to be a toddler or a baby?

    Toddler. I think he was two the last time it was mentioned.

    Is Larocca the artist this issue? I remember when he put Rogue in an evening gown instead of a night gown. This could have been a similar mistake, as English isn't his first language.

    Ever since we saw Chamber on that variant cover, I've been expecting a second Mutant Massacre that would lead to him joining the Uncanny team. So needless to say, I'm concerned if Shogo's there.
    Called it.

    Yeah, Shogo's reference material should've been the last Generation X book. If the artist only read the adjectiveless X-Men series that Shogo debuted in, that would explain the kid's apparent de-aging.

    Jubes suffer a lot of this, in some com8cs she has brown eyes and in other comic like blue eyes, and also her breasts size change all the time, from flat chest to cup C depending the artist... the same wirh her age, even though she looks younger than she is (all.those years as vampire) I feel that sometimes they draw her as a 13 years old kid...

    And I remember some covers that show her with her powers while she was powerless or vampire!!!

    Even popular characters are suffering this, specially eyes colors... I wonder if they don't have a database that indicate which color use for each character!!

    At this point it would be preferable to having him with someone who calls him “Jubilee’s runt” and then hands him off to a subterranean one-eyed murderwitch without a backwards glance.

    Strain’s Chamber would never have done such a thing.

    Yup.
    And standard eye color I can forgive/not care about. I see folks all the time crying outrage if X-23 doesn't have green eyes, for example.
    I can understand that kind of "WTF!?!" for characters like Remy who has such a unique ocular visual but I'm quick to forgive any other baseline miscolorings.

    The ethnicity, age and bust size will forever vex me though. FOR. EV. ER.
    Valeria Richards, for example, need not have breasts, yo.
    TRY.
    HARDER.
    PEOPLE.
    Use references. Diversify your body types. Height variances. BOOB size.

    Strain, along with Marjorie Liu and Kathryn Immonen, is part of my trinity of female comic book writers.

    Strain's Generation X was the last good non-solo X-Book in a while. It knew what it was, and it delivered as far as I'm concerned. Probably wasn't for everyone, but I would have stuck around for a while. Provided it didn't get killed by a crossover like 90% of X-Men titles.
    Continuity, even in a "shared" comics universe is often insignificant if not largely detrimental to the quality of a comic.

    Immortal X-Men - Once & Future- X-Cellent - X-Men: Red

    Nobody cares about what you don't like, they barely care about what you do like.

    Always thought that book had fine writing and poor art. Just like Jim Zub's Thunderbolts run. It didn't surprise me that both only lasted a year.
