I'd say the issue keeps up wonderfully the momentum of energy, freshness and fun of the the first two. It also delivers some wonderful interaction between the students of the JG School for Higher Learning. Such as:

Four pages from Wolverine & the X-Men #3 )

Thank you, Satan Claws, for my early X-mas present!

It's not the still beating heart of the childhood bully from my younger years, but this is close enough!

Two highlights from the title!!!! YAAAYYY!!!!!!

Love is in the air.  )

ComicBookResources has the preview as Day #1 at the Jean Grey School of Higher Learning continues.

What else do I have to say? Mayhem ensues. But before that, Logan has a talk with Bobby.

Well, the new X-men title is here, and of course based on my current favorite person in the world, mayhem ensues.

One page, and one page only, do you need to get an idea as to where this book is headed.

'Golden Age' is one of my favorite arcs from Bendis' and Maleev's run on Daredevil. It's just a great combination of writing from Bendis and art from Maleev. It's also largely a stand-alone story so you just need to be familiar with the basic concept of Daredevil being outed as Matt Murdock and later declaring himself the 'Kingpin' of Hell's Kitchen.

I have a question about "Spider-Man lore." When was it first established that Peter Parker lived and attended high school in Forest Hills, Queens? AMAZING FANTASY #15 or later?
Two legal pages after the cut.

Title: X-Men: Curse of the Mutants - Storm and Gambit (Marvel, 2010, 22 pages)
Creators: Chuck Kim (writer) and Chris Bachalo (artist)
Availability: On Sale Now

I wasn't actually intending to pick this up (or post more Northstar during the 30 Days meme, for that matter), but it showed up at the used book shop near my house and I knew it had a Northstar appearance, so $.75 didn't seem like too much to risk. And hey, he is my favorite LGBT character...

It turns out that this one-shot really isn't a bad little read at all. I enjoyed the story a hell of a lot more than I have anything that's been served up in Fraction's Uncanny (not that this should be taken as endorsement of the new adjectiveless title, which I'm not digging; I just think that Kim knocked his particular installment out of the park). I'm not that fond of Storm or Gambit, but they're written as competent characters with a strong affection for each other, their voices are spot on, and Storm has a choice near the end that really made me feel for what her character's been through since the Claremont days. Bachalo's art is as expressive as ever, even if I don't think his storytelling skills are the best, and there are a couple of pages of Storm kicking ass that are just flat-out gorgeous. So if you're a fan of either Ororo or Remy, you could do worse than to pick this one up.

Not that you're going to see much of them under the cut...

All right, on to the spoilers )

So yeah, general thumbs up on this one.

I found this a tough category, not because there's a shortage of possibilities, but because I'd want to bring back a character that would serve good stories and could have future potential. Ted Kord, of course, springs to mind, but I'm reluctant there because we've seen some great stories and actual impact coming from his death, as well as an awesome legacy hero, rather than it being a throwaway death. Skin would be another thought, but then you have wonder what you'd be bringing him back to - the rest of Generation X are pretty much shuffled to one side, the next generation after them are either dead or ignored - bringing him back for writers to shuffle aside again seems to be a pointless exercise.

So I'm going for a character that I think could actually have potential in terms of future stories and who has relationships with existing characters, so his return could have an impact, if writers choose to pick it up.

And that character is Sean Cassidy AKA Banshee.

Chamber - Bachalo style

Making the pick on my favourite male character was probably a little easier for me than picking a female favourite. There's lots of characters I love, but only one I love and would love to ding round the earhole as well, which elevates this character to a special place in my heart.

I'm talking about Jonothon Evan Starsmore. Or as he's otherwise known, Chamber.

Scans from Generation X issues 1, 4, 10, 11, 41, 42, 44, 50 and Marvel Icons: Chamber #2.

First up, some context. Bastion has captured Jubilee and is trying to stripmine her mind for information regarding the X-men. One approach is to reveal to her that he's killed Cyclops and he shows her his battered and damaged visor as proof. He later returns to try and play further mind tricks on her to pry information from her. It doesn't go according to plan.

From Generation X #27, by Scott Lobdell and Chris Bachalo.
