Not much is going for August imho. X-force is the only book for me, though UXM and Wolverine (solo) I MIGHT get. Out of curiosity(uxm) and completionist (wolverine).

I'm guessing with X-force Marrow dies though I hope not.

[KusaSan]

Love the cover for UXM 25. Other than that, I find that incredible (not in the good way) taht it still the same acharcter who are together after all those year in the marvel universe...

[cc008]

Pete Wisdom is the ultimate guest star.

[Mahes]

That Bachalo cover is looking good.

Pete Wisdom vs X-Force? Sold with Spurrier writting. And yes it does appear that Marrow will die.

[a0040pc]

One thing I've noticed that's made me happier is that they're spacing the core X-Men titles. I class the core titles as being ANXM, UXM, XM, WATXM and AXM. Right now we are having four of these titles come out in one week with ANXM coming out a separate week. Personally I like to have at least one core X title a week and currently I have one week where one comes out, two weeks that none come out and then four come out in the same week. It's like waiting an hour for a bus and then three come at the same time.

[saul_on_the_road_to_damascus]

I'm kinda .getting sick of these covers x-factor has been putting out. The last series had some truely spectacular covers. So far the ones coming from this series have been very bland. 1 color back ground with a group photo or minimum action.

[Supernature]

Excited for Storm and X-Force

Edit: Oh and All-New Doop.

[sureshot]

I really can't get interested in the death of Wolverine story line. If Marvel would actually kill off the character. As it stands we will get a Marvel version of Batman battle for the cowl. A few months maybe a year or two without Wolverine. Then a rebirth and revenge story where he returns. Uncanny X-men with Xavier greatest secret looks promising. The secret better not be that he slept with Mystique and had Xavier junior.
