New X-Men 2.0: Stuck In Detention

[nj06]

Hellion, Rockslide, Armor, Gentle, X-23, and Glob are in Extermination #4, mostly as cameos and supporting roles. Actually, this is the first well-written Nezhno in a while, but I hope whatever Brisson was doing with Laura's voice doesn't continue into Disassembled.

Do you have the scans for Nezhno?

Also, kinda random but who do you think would be a good choice to portray Wind Dancer onscreen?

I'm about to start a mega re-read of the New X-Men. I originally wanted to start from the "Childhood's End" arc when Kyle & Yost took over, but now I'm actually tempted to go back to the very start from New Mutants (vol. 2) where all the characters were introduced. I think I will enjoy the dramatic shift in tone and characters focus even more. Also, I remember liking Paco Medina's art as he worked on the majority of the issues, but I believe it's with Skottie Young's all-too brief run that the series reached its peak, in the same way Bill Sienkiewicz elevated New Mutants to new heights back in the 80s.

Children of the X-Men & Quest for Magik were my FAVORITES. No x-teen book since has ever reached that type of quality, ESPECIALLY 'Children of the X-Men'. The dynamics between the characters being fleshed out as they were pushed to the edge. The tearjerking reason behind the "Youngest X-Men" scenes, Hellion/Mercury v. Emma, Surge and Prodigy, Loa stopping Elixir from losing it etc etc.

Thanks for the scans, those pages are just PERFECTION. I consider Kyle & Yost's New X-Men the only worthy successor to the original New Mutants, working in conjunction with the main X-Men series but fleshing out wonderful characters on its own at the same time. Lobdell & Bachalo came close with Generation X but lost steam too much and too soon, while New X-Men just kept getting better with age.

Why Marvel axed it at the peak of its popularity after Messiah Complex, replacing it with the mediocre Young X-Men, is beyond me. Why CB Cebulski, who was the original editor of New Mutants vol. 2 and for sure contributed to the creation of all these characters, doesn't bring these characters back together in a team book is beyond me.

I'm sure there were reasons, but i just can't understand ending the book, just when it reached its peak. Also why launch Young X-men with a new creative team if K&Y were still around and by all measures were doing great with the "young" X-men group?

Doesnt make sense yo.

Because they were on X-Force and the Guggenhiem left the fan favorites behind in YXM

If Laura keeps being written like that in Uncanny, I’m not going to touch that series.

I’m at the point where I’m no longer excited about her appearances in comics outside her solo, but rather dreading “what out of character crap is she going to say this time?” Tamaki’s Laura isn’t perfect either, but at least she’s recognizable. It’s a shame that Marvel has made me lose so much interest in a character I used to love.

Where do you see it mentioned there that she's teenaged?

Forever sad there were no more leader talks between Cyke and Surge. Heck I would've liked Leader talks with Cyke, Surge, Dani, Cannonball, and Madrox.

New X-Men (Childhood's End - lame sub title)
Young X-Men
Pixie Strikes Back // X-Dudes (To Serve and Protect)
Schism
Wolverine and the X-Men vol 1 & 2
Spider-Man and the X-Men
Generation X

You missed X-men Legacy (Utopia era) where the students become Rogue's supporting cast. They take center stage in several arcs. To a lesser degree, one can argue adding Generation Hope for Pixie and Martha

Generation Hope is something that's hard to remember even having existed, yet it wasn't a bad book by any means. Although I'm not particularly fond of any of the "Lights" I do love a good Kieron Gillen comic.
