New X-Men Volume 1

[emeraldstag]

With no Watchmen to watch (next week!), and no comics to read (this weekend maybe!), I thought I'd dig through the large stack of trade paperbacks that I've bought over the last few conventions and holiday sales and start reading them! Will this be a regular thing? Maybe, just for the fact it will make me actually read them instead of leaving them

Spider-Man Fairy tales? oh god that sounds cool. I've been seriously falling for Spider-Man Noir. I don't know why, but damn is it sexy.

The art is what made me get the book. The back says interpretations of Little Red Riding Hood, Anansi the Spider God, Tsuchigumo the Japanese Spider Spirit and Cinderella. Talk about a wide range lol. XD

Noir has surprised me and that has kept me reading it.

Awww! That sounds adorable and fun. Well, and probably dark in places.

Yeah, it really has! I just grabbed one on a whim, and really enjoyed it! I kind of secretly hope they'll continue it.

As far as Morrison's run on the X-Men goes, I suggest you give a try to Riot at Xavier's - I loved it when it came out. But then, I liked Morrison's run in general (save for the final arc), so take this with a grain of salt ^^;; It's also true that coming out at the same time with Austen's Uncanny X-Men, it could only win the comparison ;-D

I didn't necessarily dislike this book but if you recommend Riot at Xavier's - I'll keep a look out for it next time I'm trade hunting. Doesn't hurt Jean is on the cover! :)

lol @ Austen. Was that guy run off or what? Bad stories!
