The official Uncanny X-men thread SPOILERS WITHIN

[Real Elijah Snow]

I loved this new i#1! I've liked All new X-men, but this one is off to a great start. What's weird is from the very moment it started i knew that was going to be Magneto. I admit, i wavered on that thought a bit with it being obvious that the character had a shaved head, but at the very beginning i thought "Magneto is pulling something at SHIELD." That last page was perfect.

I like the cast chosen for this book. It's like Cyclops and a bunch of Villains with a few naive kids thrown in. Although, Cyclops has been very much the villain lately, so maybe it's just a big bunch of villains, and villains to be. Emma Frost, Magneto, Majik, Cyclops....AND NO WOLVERINE. I love me some wolverine, but i'm totally ok with him not being on every team the marvel universe has.

I thought Bachalo had lost it for a very long while, but he seems to have gotten better lately. Bendis is Bendis. I would let him write anything.

Uncanny X-force and All new X-men have both been very good, but this first issue knocked it out of the park for me very unlike the last several years of x-book reboots. Thoughts?

[JerryAmsterdam]

Yup I really like this book. Bendis is hitting it out of the park!

[Wushugushu]

Just finished it and I gotta say that Im more excited for this than All New X-Men. I thought Bendis wrote this really well and I loved the introduction of the so called mutant terrorist group.

 

Looking forward to seeing more of Bachalos work as well - the layouts in previews of next issues look really nice

[Stryfe1000]

Read it and enjoyed it.

 

Not quite as much as All-New but still an enjoyable read. I think it will certainly be a grower, once the dynamic between the two books begins to develop.

 

One thing I didn't like was Scott's new visor (?). The new version just looks bizarre.

 

Looking forward to seeing Magik develop as a character.

[Magneto]

Glad someone started this thread.

 

Read thge book last night and really enjoyed it. I was a little surprised by the Magneto reveal at the end... however, by reading his justification I understand his reasoning.

 

I just keep thinking that this book now has a "Dark Avengers" feel to it.

 

I would love to see Cyclops recruit one of the original X-Men from the past. Perhaps Angel?

 

Looking forward to the next issue!

[krighton]

with the young Cyclops in the mix, the new visor helps to keep them separated.

I enjoyed this issue too. So happy to have Uncanny X-Men back!! The King has returned.

 

Also I think Magneto is a double agent. What better way to find out who is sending the Sentinels than infiltrating S.H.I.E.L.D. from the inside?

I like it! Magneto ain't no rat!

I agree! I guess I'm just afraid that Bendis will ignore prior characterization Mags received under Gillen's pen. And BMB has been known to do such things....

[jjoseph7772]

Just read it, loved it

[Dr. Balls]

Yep, it has my vote.

[Real Elijah Snow]

I didn't even think of that. That could very well be! Good call!!!

I would've picked up this title but after years of hating Bachalo's artwork, I just don't buy anything that he's worked on anymore. It's a shame because sometimes they are well written books but the artwork just spoils it for me. Just started picking up Wolverine and the X Men now that someone else is on the art.

I agree.

 

I still think turning them into the new Brotherhood of Evil would be an excellent storyline... and punishment for all the Phoenix Force shenanigans. Magik is bordering on evil anyway.

I thought Bachalo had lost it for a very long while, but he seems to have gotten better lately.

 

I totally disagree. Bachalo's art is horrible! I've never liked anything he has done. I picked up this book because I am a die-hard X-men fan. I liked the writing, but the art is a big distraction. I just hope Bachalo isn't on the book long. I don't think I'll be able to stay with the title for long if he is.

[GL-R2814-migration]

I've been looking forward to this #1 for quite some time! So glad that it didn't disappoint!

 

I was really worried about the new costumes for Cyke and the group but I have to say I really think they work well! I'm trusting Bendis a lot to not screw up Cyclops either! I think he needs to walk that fine line between mutant revolutionary and villain/terrorist... But if they make him a full out baddie I think they've gone to far!

 

I'm so excited to see where Bendis takes this series!

[Wushugushu]

Cyclops is a hero

[ThoseBackPages]

is this title something i can read and enjoy, not knowing anything that happened in the past?

[pwog]

That is Marvel's plan and the first issue seems to be tending that way, but knowing the history may cloud my judgement. It's worth checking out ( disclaimer: I still have issues with Bachalo's art)

Frazer Irving will be on art starting with issue #5 (although I think he is sharing arc duties with Bachelo).
