I don't like the overall situation because it paints the X-Men into a terribly unheroic corner of the universe that will be hard to escape from, but I have to believe there's a plan in place. Everything feels too well thought-out for there not to be.

That said, it would seem I have very different costume taste from some of you. I love so many of the Dawn of X costumes, and honestly think most characters look the best they've ever looked, but Storm, Jean, and Betsy are notable exceptions for me. I actually think the Jubilee-wave costume is Storm's best look, and I'm still holding out hope for armoured Psylocke. I'd love to see current Rachel, Xavier, Magneto, or Wolverine, though!

Hickmans current x-men run is pretty decent, imo. The house of x/powers of x miniseries that jumped it off was well done. There are rules and mechanisms in place that make the whole dead mutants can come back to life thing way more interesting and less nonsensical than it sounds when you hear it. I like some of the designs, particularly some of the future x-men specifically the green magneto looking dude. Hickman also wrote avengers books several years back that led to secret wars in 2015. I think it's worth checking out for anyone who may be interested in his writing style.
