Yeah but there’s definitely an Anglophile seam that ran thru the original volume. England was seen as lovely, warm, quaint, intelligent and ordered, and fun. Doubly so when Davis has full control. Ellis changed a LOT, but he’s Ellis, doing Ellis things. Later volumes that pulled the Anglocentricity out of the book felt awkward and... dirty(?). That’s not to say I don’t hope this new volume will be good, but I share the others’ fears and distaste for cutting the original seam out in favor of what appears to be X-Men: Purple.
