a light goes out







The Lights show up already Kenji-less in UXM #9, also released this Wednesday:



Uncanny X-Men #9's (which deserves your money imho tbh) creators are Kieron Gillen & Carlos Pacheco.

Wouldn't it have been more original if the monstrous-looking character with moral issues would NOT have gone down the villain route? Seems like a waste of a very interesting character to me.

Did Zero just die?
You know its really unclear...

dude, total agreement. Him and Laurie are the best characters of Gen Hope, a shame to waste him. Then again, X-Men are never really dead for good.

Agreed. I don't think he's dead for good, but if and when he returns, it will no doubt be as a villain.

I believe they were, but they were under Kenji's control.

I think so, but they were mind-controlled?

The art is really pretty, I particularly like the panel with Hope holding Martha's brain, but I wish none of this had happened. Martha deserves some happiness and I'm about ready for the whole "Hope is sorta evil maybe" subplot to be over with.

i know that kenji actually had his tentacles all up in magneto's eyeballs in a recent issue, but still.
Not a slash ship I ever expected to see fodder for :p

It also seems COMPLETELY out of character with Kenji's portrayal up to this point for him to have been treating Martha like that.

Also there's the basic fact that he was right.

Someone mind-controlled EMMA? And it wasn't treated as a big deal?

... I'm not a big fan of Asmus' handling of Gen Hope either.

Any sentence that starts with something like "I've been frelling with your minds ever since we first met, making you agree with whatever I wanted to do" and only ends with "But I'm really sorry about it" is sort of missing several rather important stages.

Surely even a title on a mad canter to a crossover event can't be THAT slapdash about something so fundamental?

I am not really surprise that this stuff happened on the new team... I just wished I had better understand of what just happen...

So, about the only character introduced in Generation Hope to be the least bit interesting was killed off?

Yeah, that sounds about right.

(Well, okay, Idie was a little interesting, but she's been shuffled off too).

hey, the rule about only posting 4 pages from a recent comic does still apply to stuff you post in comments. You may delete the comment I'm answering from.

[personal profile] jlbarnett 2012-03-22 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
what about when the alternative is "I really can't help it and without me, you'd be dead" parts

Except she's KNOWN she's had the ability for a while, and has never told them about it, to give them the choice of whether they want to be near to someone who has that sort of power.

And trying to lay the guilt card of "But you OWE me", is pretty much lower than low, ethics wose.

It's 1/3 of a comic in general, but when a comic is recent (ie the last issue and released within the last month); any one poster is limited to 4 pages (so enthusiastic posters don't hog out all the potential pages from issue that are just released, preventing further posts).
