X-Men: Deadly Genesis
#1’s not out for a couple of weeks, but I read a few quotes today from it’s writer, Ed Brubaker, that made me go ‘squee!’, so I thought I’d share them
When asked who the stars of the series are:
[quote]
“Just about all of them, but the real stars of the show are Cyclops, Marvel Girl and Nightcrawler. It’s really the whole group though – just about everyone important to the X-Men gets an appearance.”
[/quote]
And when Wizard asked about specific characters he had this to say about Kurt:
[quote]
“As it turns out, he’s kind of the heart of Deadly Genesis. When I started writing it, I thought it would be much more Colossus and Marvel Girl. But Nightcrawler’s become the emotional centre of the story.”
[/quote]

It certainly wasn't bad. From the looks of the promos and such, I think Nightcrawler is going to be hit the hardest by whatever dark secret Prof X has been hiding, because he's always believed in the dream, even way back in Excalibur when he was yelling at the Professor.
So yeah... we'll see how this all turns out, folks!

I liked it alot..it renewed my hope for Xbooks....I'm def reading
"If you live your life to please everyone else, you will continue to feel frustrated and powerless. This is because what others want may not be good for you. You are not being mean when you say NO to unreasonable demands or when you express your ideas, feelings, and opinions, even if they differ from those of others.â€

I just looked at the preview for it and I have to say that so far both Hank and Kitty look pretty bad.. I don't know why they're both drawn so thin here.. http://www.buzzscope.com/previewer.php?id=5138&p=3

It was an interesting start.
Yes, Kurt will suffer from this story, as I understand it...
And SPOILERS
.
It seems the mystery new mutant is the Krakoa island from the 1975 X-Men annual. Go and re-read the first issue. It makes sense !

That is the stupidest villain I've ever read about, which is horrible cause it appears in one of my favorite comics.. is it at least evolved at all, maybe taking a human form?!

My mom didn't have time to pick up the issue monday, so I got to today. Apparently, the owner really likes me and she and I get along really well (we're both HIM fans..Ville Valo is hot..looks at avatar)so when I found out they had sold out of all the issues that they had for the shelfs, her co-owner who was a teacher of my cousin's and a really cool guy, pulled down the display issue that they never give away and sold it to me. I couldn't stop thanking them both. I had a good day.
I'm really excited about this issue now having read the first issue.
Emma in pig-tails...never seen that myself, who'da thunk.
I agree with Diablo on the mystery character, but disagree with Blue_Demon94 , I think it'd be cool for it to come back, the character hasn't been overused ...can't wait to see how this all pans out.

The new rumors are the following ones :
[spoiler] It seems the mysterious new villain isn't Krakoa himself... but was trapped inside Krakoa decades ago. And guess what ? He's the third Summers brother -so, the brother of Cyclops and Havok. D'Oh !

That looks cool. But yes Hank looks too much thin

as i dont like the idea of ordering something from e-bay. with the price of 50€ and 20€ for mailing.

klady - I don't remember the exact storyline, but it was one of the really big crossovers, and Professor X comes to Muir Island and acts like he owns the place and the team. This is when Kurt was in his macho phase and basically says, "Alright, so you and the rest of the team fake your death, don't tell us, etc etc, now you just expect us to drop everything and follow you like we used to?" I'll have to find the issue, but I'm gonna be busy with finals for the next couple days at least.
-addendum-
If you're looking for the book, I think mycomicshop.com still has a few in stock, and I know they ship worldwide.

Man...the kid in the back-up story in #2...Darwin...he's got to be the most boring, Gary-Su-ish character every created. Who okayed that P.O.S.?

Yeah, so the first new mutant to come up since "no more mutants" had to be that guy?

I don't understand it anymore. Marvel just got rid of a buttload of mutants just to make new ones...am I insane, is it...is it me. Oh well, nevermind me.Originally posted by Nandireya

As for the rumor about [spoiler] the new character being a Summers brother...how would that work out? I thought it was only Havok and Cyclops that their parents had. Wasn't their mother killed..I am so confused by this...then again, hat makes sense theses days.[/spoiler]
I'm really hapy with this series so far. I love the art. The plot is moving kinda slow for me, but I can be patient.
The only part I didn't like[spoiler] was when Sean got hit by the Blackbird..he's always been a favorite of mine. It's a shame.[/spoiler]

The [spoiler] third Summers brother subplot is an old song. We know he exists but we don't know who he is or how it is possible he exists...[/spoiler]
Regarding the ending, [spoiler] I truly hope Banshee's not dead. Joe Quresada said "a popular X-character was going to die in Deadly Genesis..." As long as it's not Kurt, it's OK, but still... please not Sean. [/spoiler]

X-Men: Deadly Genesis
As far as the backup stories go, I was under the impression that these were taking place in the past...like prior to the assembling of the Giant Size X-Men team. One of the rumors going around is that Xavier assembled ANOTHER team of X-Men before Kurt, Peter, Ororo and the rest to take on Krakoa. And it didn't end well.
I actually think the back up stories are good shorts. And knowing Brubaker, they will have some importance by the time it's finished.

What other thing can I say than [spoiler] crap, Banshee is dead, but hopefully he'll get better, like Psylocke, Colossus, Cyclops, Jean, etc. [/spoiler]
