Astonishing Thoughts and Marvel Question

Jun 03, 2008 22:06

Just finished reading Giant-Size Astonishing X-Men #1.  I was moved...but I think I'll have to go back and re-read many of the previous issues.  With so much time between releases, I tend to forget where previous stories were going.  Before reading Giant, I re-read issue 24.  Sadly, I was more than half way through the issue before I realized I'd read it before.  Gah!  I may have more to offer on the issue after I've had more time to digest it.  Though, I can say now that I thought the Astonishing art was outstanding.  Oddly enough, it was one of the things that pulled me to the title in the beginning.  But, I gotta say, wouldn't Scott have a visor tan-line after wearing a visor or glasses over his eyes 24/7 for the past how many decades?  Just saying. :P

Also, question about this whole crossover business and multiple title thing.  How do they all fit together?  What order do these titles like Astonishing, X-Men, Uncanny, etc. intersect, taking into consideration crossovers like Messiah Complex, Endangered Species, and whatever else is out there currently?  I understand First Class, Ultimate X-Men, and all those other "canon yet AU" titles are a whole other ball of wax.  Help?

marvel craziness, astonishing
