The Marvel one word teaser machine cranked up again with this ominous one word in fiery colors signaling something new in the All-New Marvel Now coming in February 2014.
Most of the teasers have turned out to be brand new series or reboots of series. One notable exception Timebubble meaning a new Captain America arc by the same writer. Continue reading Marvel Resurrection Teaser
The Women of the Atom are in fine hands with artist Kris Anka. The Uncanny X-Force cover artist is drawing Uncanny X-Men #15.
The cover shows Emma Frost, Kitty Pryde, Irma, Tempus and the Stepford Cuckoos on a ladies night out.
This Inhumanity tie-in issue is a dream come true for Anka who reveals his favorite X-woman Continue reading X-MEN Ladies Night Preview
Uncanny X-Force #1 is X-Men with a twisted dose of nastiness and attitude swirling in those mutant genes. New writer Sam Humphries doesn’t try to follow in Rick Remender’s trail but uses what’s happened before to launch into new concepts and settings with new characters and favorites moving in new directions.
Psylocke and Storm are working out some “issues” in this adventure that takes them into a seedy, drug fueled Los Angeles underworld where they encounter Puck, Spiral and a new threat that may be behind a hive mind of drug addicted ravers.
Humphries reveals the aftermath of the previous Uncanny X-Force finale and how Wolverine and Elizabeth’s relationship and roles have changed. I like the way Humphreys writes Ororo as Betsy’s “wingman” so to speak. Storm has issues of her own to work out. I love seeing the driven, passionate Psylocke – especially when she unloads on Spiral. Those two women have a serious history of hurt. I didn’t mind but I definitely noticed that Humphies has Betsy cursing like she’s in an X-Men flick by Quentin Tarantino.
I loved Puck’s introduction, the new costume designs by Kris Anka, Ron Garney’s 90’s vibe art and the naughty surprise on the final page. This book has edge, an attitude and I’m ready for more.
