I like Fraction, but his x-men stuff really does suck. Good reviews sir!

[gdkeen]

well im clearly in the minority here, but i like the fraction's x-men.

he really characterizes the main players well, doing some interesting things with cyclops assuming the leadership role, and i like the way he throws in so many obscure x-men background players, and introduces them succinctly enough to make them accessible to people unfamiliar with the deep continuity of the team.

i also prefer greg lands' art to those of the recent artists (like ponsor).

i really like this title

[Trollzrule]

isnt greg land going to do the next xmen arc? ugh thats reason enough to not pick it up

[classicgmer]

I've never liked anything by Fraction except his Invincible Iron man stuff.

Better late than never! Great review...

I did buy Uncanny X-Men, but didn't review it because it blew. I read Dark X-Men The Confession, and nearly threw up!! I left it on the stand, and I wouldn't even pay a penny for that piece of crap. Seems like Matt Fraction just can't do X-Men books. But, it could be worse, at least he's not the dude behind the Red Hulk crap.
