Solicits for 1/28/09
This post may contain spoilers for comics previously published, spoilers from preview pages, spoilers from interviews, and rampant speculation on forthcoming titles in the post and in comments.
Sorry for the lateness; hopefully everyone can catch this before heading to the store for this relatively small batch of X-titles.
WOLVERINE FIRST CLASS #11: The conclusion to the werewolf story from last issue. My feelings of adoration for this book have been made quite clear; has anyone new picked it up recently?
X-FORCE #11: The solicit promises a flashback issue all about Selene. This may mean good or bad things for Selene fans. However, it also promises to actually provide backstory for the mysterious original character in the series, so I'm intrigued, even if this book still frustrates me in a lot of ways.
X-MEN PREM HC ORIGINAL SIN: I was underwhelmed by this crossover, but it was an important turning point for Daken and the stories being told in Wolverine: Origins, and it added interesting new retconned layers to Giant-Size X-Men #1. Any thoughts on this crossover, or far-reaching retcons in general? Anyone planning on picking up the collected edition?
X-MEN WORLDS APART #4: Storm is certainly a character worth reading about. Hopefully this miniseries will end as strongly as it began, after meandering a bit in the middle.
YOUNG X-MEN #10: This "landmark" issue promises a "shocker" that's been brewing since issue #1. I've been reading this series since the beginning and I can't imagine what that shocker could possibly be (or, to be completely honest, why I should care). Thoughts?
