New X-Men 122-123/Uncanny X-Men 404/Avengers 50-51 [Spoilers]

Woz got fer me by my ever-lovin' mum! I think I'm up to date now...

My word, Cassandra is tres evil. Booby-trapping her body? Nice lady. Em's on top Bitch form, whichis cracking. Nice to see Smasher, though I didn't like the way his distress call to Earth was pitched for comedy, with him chatting to some cows. Surely a couple of minor incidents like the Dark Phoenix saga and Operation: Galactic Storm would make Earhtlings stick in his mind... Nice to see The Man From Room X finally come into things properly too! Grant Morrison is probably the biggest blast of fresh air to X-Men since Claremont first came on board...

Uncanny continues to geet curiouser and curiouser... Chamber's gone from being my fave Gen X member to being one of my favourite characters, full stop, and it's nice to see Jubes again. the penny's dropped on the ex-Brotherhood members, and any issue which mentions Sunfire is worth the cover price. Give the man an Icons series at least! Ahem...

However cool these two are, though, they ain't a patch on Earth's Mightiest at the mo. For christ's sake, they've actually let a baddie conquer Earth! Concentration camps, captured heroes, the lot! As an interesting side-note, the Marvel Universe concept has either been dropped [Wolverine is seen briefly, and I'm sure it would have intruded a little on the X-books], or they've finally scrapped Johnny Byrne's shitty idea of 'Marvel Time', and these two happen six months apart or summink...

Oh, he was hinted at in soem Wizard interview with Morrison about being the most important X-Man for the last 20 years or something, and while he ain't done much yet, at least he's in the main plot-line...
