    Great cover but I think Jean should wear her red Phoenix costume instead of a costume that looks so much like Polaris or Rogue.

    If they didn't color their hairs in 3 different colors (Pol, Rogue, Jean), we wouldn't know who is who.

    Spoilers? Duggan did ask that no one leak the story. I didnt get it. If that's the case he must really feel awful... poor him, I hope no one leaks it.

    Well you are always welcome to not read the books. It's not like someone is forcing you too. Complaining about something you haven't read for decades is very unnecessary.

    I don't see why the book can't just continue with it's current number, but Marvel tries to squeeze out a new #1 every chance they get so it wouldn't shock me.

    I think Duggan mentioned that issues 13 and 14 would introduce the new team so it seems like it’s not getting relaunched. Plans could have changed since then though.

    My one critique about Duggan's X-Men at this point would be not really pushing the main plot thread(s) to completion sooner (with a few issues like the Nightmare being "filler".) Which absolutely makes it correct that for nine issues...nothing has been accomplished, with the main Gamesworld plot being resolved in the next issue or two making this a 12-issue arc (Under another writer it would have been resolved in three issues max!...01 GW assassins attack. 02 Intel acquired, fight taken to GW. 03 GW vs XM, end arc.) and the secondary plots Feilong, Stasis and Orchis etc "to-be-continued" possibly in the next iteration of the team.

    That said, I enjoy Duggan's X-Men for what it is not for what I personally want or expected (I understand that current writers are not at all like the "classic writers" nor are they under similar Editorial direction so I cannot in all fairness hold them to that standard) or else like most of you, I would have been done with it a long time ago out of sheer boredom and disappointment.

    It’s not a complain about a comic, a picture has been posted… for everyone to see it. Then everyone can say something…

    As much as I'm enjoying the X-Men book...I agree 100%.
    I really wish the X-Men vote thing was at least every two-three years (our time)

    He mentioned that in january which is fairly recent so I doubt plans have changed since then
