Im so confused. Twitter is loving this announcement.

I just don't get it.

Twitter isn't real life.

X-Corp is going to be a book I avoid. Ugh!

Definitely a hard pass on this book.

I haven’t read anything from Toni that I would rate above a 6/10. Her Excalibur is definitely my least favorite X-book (dropped that expeditiously after XOS) and easily the worst Gambit portrayals in years. Not looking forward to this book and questioning what the point is when Marauders is supposed to be the X-books’ corporate arm. Duggan hasn’t done a great job with that title (will drop when Storm gets outta there) but I see there being a lot of overlap between their mission statements and vibe. We’ll see though, I’m giving this 1 issue to impress.

This disconnect with Tini's writing is so fascinating to me. People here thinks she's the weakest, but people on Twitter think she's one of, if not the, strongest writer of the line. I don't think I've ever seen so polarizing reactions to someone before.

I do love Monet and Warren, so I'm happy to see them used somewhere.

mmmmmh twitter......

Totally off topic but I watched the entire 30 Rock series during lockdown and loved it. Give Tina Fey an X-Men book!

[Whim]

writing to pander to twitter doesn't work.

most everywhere else I've seen Excalibur has been viewed as the weakest book now.

Gambit and Rogue are wasted and do nothing. they complain some. Jubilee is just there and does nothing but Shogo this Shogo that. The Rictor stuff still makes little sense either.

this seems like a strong pass.

the only thing saving Excalibur from being the worst Dawn of X book was the fact Fallen Angels was there for a bit...

Twitter isn't real life.

Twitter is an echo chamber quite divorced from the real world.

The concept is straightforward enough that Tini will probably not mess it up. Considering how much she's improving in Excalibur, I'm quite excited for this! I'm just hoping she stops developing stuff off-panel and actually fix things.

And for God's sake, someone tell Gho to fix Monet's color.

You’re right Excalibur has improved. I still dropped it cause of budget reasons but if it had started off like this it would probably be a mid-tier book for me.

Imma try the first issue BUT Marvel is really trying me with this one.

Not like here.

[CGAR]

But we’re like 0.0000001% of real life.

How many members does this place have compared to the Twit.

150 people is this forum?

[Bozack]

Tini is the absolute last person I wanted on this book. Damn. So much for scooping this up.

It's not just the coloring. You can't just draw ethnic people looking like white people and slap paint on it and say it's a black person or a person of color. That's insulting as as get out. Something wrong that these professionals don't want to study the features of others?

TELL IT!!!!!

[Dipter]

The opinions of fans on Twitter are no less valid than the ones here. Editorial probably pays way more attention to the response that Excalibur receives on twitter than anywhere else.
