Finally catching up on comics. Still a bit behind, but figured I’d jump in to list off some thoughts on various things happening in the X-Men world.
WARNING! There will be spoilers if you aren’t up to date.
WARNING! This will probably not have much coherency in terms of order.
WARNING! Expect mild language.
Ongoing books from a villain’s point-of-view are notoriously tricky propositions, but Cullen Bunn is off to a solid – if rougher than I’d like – start in Magneto #1. Check out the read/RANT review today!

Seems Bendis is pointing out more and more things that I personally disliked over AvX and the current fallout. And I like it!
SPOILER WARNING!
For those doing the banner contest and/or the comment contests and interested in the official prize list, then READ ON!
While not quite as enjoyable as #31, its still a blast.
Recently out is the comic industry’s most recent all female team’s second issue! Very shockingly just titled as X-Men.
SPOILER WARNING!
While there are still some neat aspects to this, its starting to wear a bit thin.
SPOILER WARNING!
Like Cal I’m popping out of limbo for a slightly delayed review of Uncanny X-Men #3. While a review for #3, I will be touching up on 1 and 2 as well.
Spoiler Warning
Pic unrelated (though I want Steph back DC!)
My pull list for 2013! Please feel free to suggest a comic for me to check out or drop in the comments!
So I gave up Avenging Spider-Man a while back. While some team ups I really enjoyed, others not so much and I had to cut comics someplace. Yet here I am, back again. 16 due to the X-Men team up, and 15.1 because of Eric’s comment on my Superior Spider-Man post. Be weary of spoilers…
Those who have kept up with my AvX reviews should know that I was not entirely pleased with the series. The idea was good, but the execution was flawed. More so, I was rather upset with how they treated Scott at the end of everything. Consequences on the other hand has been handled absolutely wonderfully.
Spoiler Alert
AvX Part 12 is going to be the final part of my AvX review series. Due to a currently busy schedule, I just don’t have the time to promise an AvX Consequences or A+X review at this moment. If I somehow get the time, I will, but reviews from me for the next few weeks probably won’t happen. Maybe I’ll get to a Consequences overview once its over, but I’ve stalled enough. Without further adue, my look at part 12, and in general the AvX crossover event. If you haven’t read this yet, be warn of spoilers.
Well, only a few more to go it seems before we hit “Consequences’. From now on I’ll try to hit them the week they come out, but I might get caught with school and work again. This review brings us just a few weak 3 pointers and less.
Only two issues this part. Wolverine and the X-Men 15 and AvX 5 or 6. Forsome added content, I went back through the AvX issues to list the matches and winners of each one.
I should have gotten to these a week ago, but they sadly melted into a pile of papers and cards on my desk until now. As for why I’m going through these out of the blue, I’m really not sure, but it probably has to deal with my recent run through of Ultimate Spider-Man volume 1, curriosity, and a general wonder how Steve will take to a new Spider-Man…
Expect some spoilers…
