The shocking finale to the first arc! Wolverine versus

I really liked this arc. Nothing really happened last issue, but other than that I thought it was great. Matthew Risman and the Purifiers have definately turned into some of my favorite villains, it was cool to get inside their heads
Posted by cutty on 08/25/08 at 10:57 PMI f'ing love this cover. Fanboy porn? yup. But I'm fine with that. I disagree that this arc has gone nowhere. I would explain myself but i am sleep deprived and drunk on jameson...
Posted by DocHess on 08/25/08 at 11:09 PMIf the next arc isn't any better, this book is gone.
Posted by xebix on 08/26/08 at 09:45 AMNext arc?! I thought this was just a mini-series. This does not need to be an ongoing--it's just not good enough.
Posted by SteveM on 08/26/08 at 10:26 AM@ SteveM This has to be a mini there is no way they will screw with Brubaker and fractions run. They seem to like Angel.
Posted by cyberauron on 08/26/08 at 10:26 PMi've liked this book so far and will continue to buy it.
Posted by CaptianJack on 08/27/08 at 01:52 AMI can't speak rationally on this -- I'm only and entirely buying it because I like Laura Kinney. I can read this as long as I pretend it is AU, and has no real relation on the other x-books. That said, I criticized this over in the comments to X-Men Legacy.
Posted by resolute on 08/27/08 at 06:55 PMI could hardly see the art because it is incredibly dark. Yuck. I am now officially "hating" on painted comics. I can't stand it. When you see something so incredibly awesome like Gary Frank on Action or McNiven on Wolverine . . . This just looks like poop. And I can't read it when it looks like poop.
I also am a "hater" on the idea of a group of X-Killers with Scott calling the shots. Just not good.

I heard chris yost on uncanny x cast say they have this book planned out till 30.
Posted by doddzilla on 08/28/08 at 09:37 AM@sethteter - I'm in total agreement about the art man, but Mike Choi is on the next arc so that's a definite improvement.
I also think that the whole X-Force theme is a logical next step. Guys like Mathew Risman just shouldn't be allowed to live anymore, not after killing dozens of the x-kids. Cyclops putting together a black-ops type of unit to deal with this small grouping of villains makes sense to me. And I have faith in Yost and Kyle's grasp on the x-universe that this will be an interesting ongoing
Posted by cutty on 08/29/08 at 03:05 PMNow I no I'm behind and all, but this is the second book in my stack I read this week (Sept 10), and the first was Titans #4, at least I can no get back to spending my hard earned dollars on comics that I care about. I couldn't stand the entire narative all the way through this book, mostly because it was telling my exactly what was happening on the page. This was like a X-Men for dummies book. "Ok, so let's tell a story through pictures and dialogue, but then, just in case people don't get what we're trying to say, let's tell them what to think about what we're creating." I mean really, are we all that stupid. I for one am done with this x title. good luck to all of you sticking with it.

Finally the end of an arc that has gone nowhere.
