I hope Ben Percy isn't lying. Tom Taylor's Red was (still is) the best X-Men book in a long while, but throughout the course of that book, I was waiting for Jean to "fuck some shit up".
We might finally have someone that wants to see the girl cut loose.
But yeah, "fucks some shit up" probably just means she faints picking up a vacuum with her mind, if the recent pattern holds.
Tom taylor Red is a lot better than what Hickman delivered...
Jean Grey criteria I bet. lol
No shade.
Wheres the hidden camera? I know Im being messed with rn.
Taylor was weakly written pandering with a conclusion entirely lifted from Duggan UA. It would be the worst book of the last few years if Gold wasnt a thing.
Characterization, for one.
I'm excited to see what the other writers do with the individual casts and I like the setup that House of X has given us, but the character voices so far are pretty terrible. Besides Magneto.
Red was better than
Uncanny X-men v5
Gold
Blue
Generation X
Weapon X
Astonishing X-men
All New X-men v2
Extraordinary X-men
Generation X and parts of Blue are arguable. Christina Weir was doing great work, especially.
