Entry tags:char: dark beast/hank mccoy, char: green goblin/norman osborn, char: mystique/raven darkholme, char: x-man/nate grey, creator: leonard kirk, creator: paul cornell, creator: simone bianchi, group: dark x-men, publisher: marvel comics, title: dark x-men
 

This is from Dark X-Men  #1, by Paul Cornell and Leonard Kirk. The cover is by Simone Bianchi.

Continuing from where the preview left off...
 

Later, the group talks to one of the civilians who was saying "I'm an X-Man." Dark Beast sprays him with something to make him more truthful, and then the civilian (who was a normal human) starts to manifest mutant powers. Michael Pointer goes crazy because the power is so huge, and Mimic experiences his future where he's happily married to Vera Cantor with a child, until he manifests Cyclops's power and accidentally kills them.

Am I the only one who really is getting a tad annoyed with these little pop-up ID bubbles in comics?

I don't. It helps newer fans like me trying to get into the X-Men comics. Though, I have consciously tried to avoid anything X-related, I'm still curious about a lot of X-Men related things.

I love them, they're often wonderfully snarky.

I was annoyed with these because they weren't as snarky and funny to me as the ones in other X-titles are. C'mon, even with the mutant population reduced, there's still a LOT of X-related characters, this is useful.

As a fairly new to X-men comics reader, I like them as I usually don't know who is who (especially given Random Art), plus I can almost always get the snarky comment on the third line.

Although, along that line, "Sun King"? Totally lost.

It's a reference to the Beatles song.

When Norman and the Dark X-Men are introduced (which you can see in the preview) each one gets a Beatles song in their caption.
