Ok, those X-Men Evolution variants are BADASS! Definitely gotta nab as many of those as possible, especially the Kitty Pryde

Also, what's up with no Uncanny X-Men, X-Men: Legacy, or Uncanny X-Force?

BUY:
THE STAND: NO MAN'S LAND #5
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #660
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #661
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #662
X-Men: Prelude #1
X-Men: Prelude #2
X-MEN #11
X-FACTOR #219

MAYBE:
VENOM #3
FF #3
FF #4
MOON KNIGHT #1
X-MEN GIANT-SIZE #1 [40 pages for $5? WTF, seriously?]
ASTONISHING X-MEN #38

I really really really need to cut back. So while I want to get a lot of the Maybes, I'm going to try to force myself to download them and not buy them. I want to save up money for a vacation at some point and I've been such a extra spender recently.

Good question on the X-Books. I wonder if they're just taking time off to prep for the next X-Event? And what's up with some of the books still having artists TBA? Shouldn't they have that taken care of by now? That's just got late all over it already.

I noticed that at least Uncanny has two issues out in April, maybe that's why that one is skipping May. But I don't know about the other books.

TBA is clearly overworked. Shitty job, Marvel, shitty job.

ASTONISHING SPIDER-MAN & WOLVERINE #6 (of 6)
FF #3
FF #4
SECRET WARRIORS #27
WOLVERINE #9
PUNISHERMAX #13

Saved for later when I find a good deal on the internet :

I'll be skipping the entire Fear Itself event along with any and all tie-ins or add-ons, unless they happen to tie into a title I'm currently collecting.

Avengers #13

Mystique by Brian K. Vaughn Ultimate collection tpb

Maybe:
Moon Knight #1
Definitely maybe:
Ruse #3

So is Trouble by Mark Millar supposed to be the secret sexed up past of May, Mary, ben & Richard Parker?

yeah, that's the one. I don't know if it's worth the hype but since it's Millar, I guess it's not.

I read the original.
It was okay, nothing special. Pretty different from his normal fair.

Miller must be getting hot if they're reprinting this 8 years after it failed as a comic book.

Maybe they are hoping to get a movie deal out of it...

I read that Mystique series when it was coming out, and I remember enjoying it at the time. It was my first major encounter with BKV, either just before or just after his Ultimate X-Men run. Like I said, I enjoyed it then but it's been years since I read it, and I don't really recall how it ended so I'm not sure if it would be as good as I remembered then.


As for Uncanny, is it 2 actual issues in April, or is one of them the Point 1 issue? I don't recall, and haven't looked it up yet.

Hmm so either a mistake or potential 'Big news' from Marvel's X-Area after the whole Age of X storyline ends.
