am i wrong in thinking both KoX and Xmen come out next week? one i dread every time it publishes. the other i derive mild entertainment from.
gala issue on july 13, and both G&R have looks made. wild guess: gambit is resurrected back to factory settings and arrives as his skeevy 90s self (which i'm not saying i don't like). his solo is july 27. so a little over a month to go.
part of the feeling of 'meh' is the lack of anything exciting (to me) on the horizon. AXE? meh. i wish i read more x-books, and i've heard Red is really excellent, but i don't like watching mutants kill each other in fights to the death. it makes me feel sad inside. so, meh. marauders and xforce also meh. one i don't care about, the other, too violent.
immortal and xmen will have to sustain me, i'm just not super enthused. and kox has nullified any potential excitement i could have for the gambit solo. the only good thing that i can say is that if gambit dies in kox i will return to never ever thinking about excalibur again, as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, fucks were not given, amen.
