Also the fact that he isn't powered by the Symbiote.

Well, at least I'm pretty sure he's not(Pretty sure it's Mr. Negative powering him.)

Well, X-men: Manifest Destiny was something of a disappointment.

I am a huge Iceman fan, and a huge Mystique fan, but the story was really too brief to make a whole lot of sense. I like that they're referring back to the incident between them in MC, that was cool, but this happened so fast - and for no discernible reason; it was just kind of weird.

The Boom-Boom story was stupid. A waste of paper and ink, and the strange part is that Marvel apparently knew it (It ended with "Never to be continued....")

The Karma story.... meh. Every once in a while she pops up in random appearances, and it seems like its always the same thing... afraid to use powers, raising brother and sister, etc. etc. Maybe if she'd stick around for more than an issue or two they wouldn't have to re-tell her story every time?

Yeah I hear you cattmoe, this is nothing like legacy.

I understand what they are doing to Iceman. I have a feeling hes going to finally be as powerful as he was said to be like 20 years ago. The only thing that really bothered me is that reports said that Iceman was missing for a week and the X-men didn't even bother to go look for him....Kinda like how they did psylocke. For a tight knit family they don't really care about their members when they go "missing". Also I guess Mystique is alive afterall!! woot!!

Boom-Boom was silly. I guess it was more for the nextwave fans or something.

Karma is pretty lame. Iguess they're developing her since she may be the key way to defeat RedQueen or something.....White Queen should develop the cuckoos more in my opinion.

Ha Orin, I indeed knew you'd answer the question! with all the Spider-hate lately you're the only way of keeping us who don't read up to par!! Thank you I say fine sir!

The Twelve #1/2 -5
grrrr..i didn't really look at it in the store, just grabbed my reserved stuff and got the clix event started. went to read it later and found out its just reprints of really old, really awful stories...for 4bucks....ugh....couldnt even make it through the first story....

and this on top of them NOT reserving secret six #1 and it being sold out!

at least Mrs Marvel annual was a good spiderman comic.....

this is true. but these were so awful...poorly written, horribly drawn...i think theres a reason why these characters werent used for 60 years

yah, my first thought was...reprints...huh...ok not so cool...but maybe theres a reason....lets give it a try...well i think there WAS a reason...cashing in on the success of the twelve

i dont hold any rancor for golden age comics....just lousy ones
