how cute Xmen: First Class is? I've just read the miniseries, and now I'm going to have to add the ongoing series to my pull list, because it is SO CUTE.
No, really so CUTE!
Jeff Parker writes wonderful scripts, and makes the original Xmen charming and goofy -- I *love* this Bobby Drake! Such a doofus! -- and fun! All the characters get to shine, and the in-jokes if you know the canon are neat, but not required to enjoy the stories!
It's such a nice break from the melodrama and soap opera of the other titles in the Xmen line. Joss Whendon's run on Astonishing is good (and Cassaday's art is gorgoeus), but Parker and artist Roger Cruz get to play. Colleen Coover's occasional back-up pieces are adorable.
