X-Books Solicitations May 2022

[BobbysWorld]

I can honestly say that with all the wildly divergent opinions I've encountered on the X-books in the past several years, I'm pretty sure I've never spoken to anyone who actually liked that X-Men Green story. I know that what online fans are vocal about isn't actually indicative of how much people in general do or don't like a comic or concept, but if there are actual fans of that particular story all I know is I've never met one to my knowledge afhlkhflkhfal.

It's a shame X-Statix or X-Cellent is not really part of the X-verse though.

X-Statix is definitely its own thing. It has more of the feel of a gonzo Daniel Clowes book than a mainstream superhero story.
