With so much ELSE going on, I find it hard for this story to be relevant.
BUT I like the art, so here's the preview, courtesy of ComicBookResources.









This had such promise... it's just not relevant anymore.
Just not feeling it.

Well, they keep linking this with Fear Itself and Schism as setting up whatever thing they're doing next year, so it does appear like it will be relevant at some point.

Hmmm, when Emma seems more modestly dressed that Rogue one has to wonder what is going on.

No kidding--she probably would have unzipped all the way down if that darn belt buckle didn't get in the way.

Is Rogue trying to copy in Emma in how much cleavage she can show?

Seriously. Rogue, youre about to fight the worlds mightiest heroes. You don't think maybe with all the flying and punching you're asking for a wardrobe malfunction?

Fake Wanda is Fake

or

This has some series continuity problems.

Because Wonder Man has completely lost his damn gourd since Dark Reign.

In the New Avengers Annual from last week, he is using Wanda as one of his "motives" for attacking the New Avengers and then the Avengers in their upcoming Annual.

This has been running since before Dark Reign ended. It's one of those "don't think about when so hard" books.

I think the problem with this comic book is that it comes out every two months - that's too long to keep the interest. After a while I kept forgetting that it's out.

Words can in no way express how little I want Wanda's origin to be messed with again.

And her reasons for Dissed are perfect as they are.

Did the Avengers jump out of an aircraft, or were they launched, human cannonball-like, from some giant gun they keep in the backyard of the mansion? Cap and Wolverine especially look like they're floating like a Macy's balloon.

This book was clearly written before all the current stuff in the MU was planned. They really should have waited for the current 'events' to end or got it out double speed imho.

Let's face facts: there was never going to be a gap between events large enough to fit a mini of this size published at this speed. It was pretty much guaranteed to have difficulty fitting in with the rest of the Marvel Universe.

Love the other page of this, with Rictor thanking Wanda, people pointing out Wanda took away powers in the first place, and Wanda wanting to repower the other mutants.

YES. DO THAT. SERIOUSLY.

Honestly, considering how meh-inducing I'm finding Fear Itself, Schism, Shattered Heroes, that other X-Men thing, X-Sanction, and all the rest, I'm going to glory in it lack of relevance.

Come here, precious. I still remember you, it's only been two months. You're still beautiful and have all my favourite characters and lovely art and fun banter and compelling plot. You're worth the wait.

Also, love Steve's sang-froid. Next page should be the teams arguing about who's going to be roomies.

Given the majority of the MU is standard issue same-shit different-day misery with the heroes getting their asses kicked and heroically fighting back (why Fear Shitself is meant to be special, I don't know) or turning on each other as an excuse to avoid developing, I don't know, REAL drama, I think it's a good thing this book isn't 'relevant'. That way, it's not tied down by bullshit.

I haven't been following this story very closely, so I'm still not quite clear on WHY teh X-folk want Wanda so badly. Is it a "mutants must take care of our own" thing? They think the Avengers (who were more "her people" than the X-Men ever were) would be more inclined to take drastic measures against her? Do they even have a plan for if/when they get Wanda or is it a case of "1) Get Wanda back, 2)???, 3) MUTANTS!"

Basically, the Avengers have been pretty firm on the Not Killing Wanda position. Emma... uh, she doesn't necessarily want to kill Wanda, but she's expressed the total willingness to do so, as she's not only a danger in herself, she's also a colossal public relations disaster for mutants with her vast power and instability. Wolverine, last I saw, wanted Wanda dead, and Scott seemed willing to be convinced.

The X-Men don't trust the Avengers to decide Wanda's fate.

I bet the people inside those buildings are saying,

"Is that Magneto with the A-Team?"
"Looks like it."
"But isn't he a terrorist or something? Why is working with them? And more importantly, why aren't the Avengers taking him to jail? Was he acquited or something"
"Who knows anymore..."

How dare you call a nine-part series that took over 18 months to tell about an event that happened five-six years ago and is set during a period in Marvel comics that happened three-four years ago.

You know, I had assumed for awhile that this whole story was taking place in the near future of the MU. Remember that its been Steve as Cap the entire time, and we were told that 'it would make sense in the end.' I assume its written as occurring sometime after Fear Itself. Basically its the rest of the MU that needs to catch up to this book.
