Thank you to the people who recommended Uncanny X-Men by Cullen Bunn. It is FANTASTIC! As much as I didn't want to retread on my promise to not read anything new by Marvel, it seems fitting to stick with this one book, it is after all the book that started it all for me in Marvel proper. And just one book isn't bad.

I read all nine issues yesterday. Bunn clearly has a grasp on something I long felt was missing from Marvel - continuity, and he has brought several characters forth that we haven't heard from in a while (to my knowledge.) To me it's literally been the best X-Men story/arc/run since Second Coming, excepting Remember's Uncanny X-Force and specifically the Dark Angel Saga. I remember thinking when I saw the promos that it was such an odd line up for UXM, more like X-Force, but you know what? It works, it's all a great line up but would be better if you removed Fantomex.

So I just wanted say thanks for the recommends. And to tie this into Marvel Legends I really feel we need a Monet now so that we can make this team, she's the only one missing if you count by TB and Hasbro.

Edit: My brain is not as awake as my fingers...typos occur.
