Yeah... I clicked the link, then remembered there’s nothing coming out that I even buy until July. So I stopped reading.
AIPT: What are your thoughts on the current X-Books?
Jordan: I love it. I think it was the shake-up everyone’s been waiting for. It’s the best it’s been since Grant Morrison. I’m a big New Mutants fan, so I love how those characters are being written. They feel like the grown-up versions of the Claremont/Simonson New Mutants I love. Then I think Gerry’s just crushing it on Marauders. I think Marauders is probably one of the strongest books out there. It’s everything I want in a Kitty Pryde book, an Emma Frost book–because I very much agree with the popular sentiment–I think the best X-Characters are women. There isn’t really a weak book in the line and they’re so cohesive and feed so well into each other. I think it’s everything X-Fans hoped for after going through all that Inhumans era stuff. There are some hidden gems in that era, but I think the X-Men are where they should be.
X-Force, Marauders and Wolverine have been my favorites of the line so far. And I agree that the women shine in these books. At least the team books I mean. Jean and Domino in X-Force, and to a lesser degree Sage (though she hasn’t gotten quite as many moments); and Kitty and Emma in Marauders, and to a lesser degree Storm who has gotten some solid moments as well. It is a great time to be an X-Fan... or will be again come July I suppose.
Fantastic art! Congrats Fokken!!!

Who’d have thunk the X Of Swords event would have got derailed by a real life calamity. Sure, all events are called Infinite Disaster Vs Secret Crisis, but this one feels particularly apt.
