I feel your pain my friend. I jumped on board in fifth grade when I just happened to pick up an X book while staying the night with my grandparents. It was the mutant massacre and had to beg my parents to drive to an out of the way gas station every month because it was the only place with a spinner rack near me. It's how I started loving comics and I held on tight to X-Men till a little after X of swords.

But Why Tho? - William Tucker
Aug 05, 2026Uncanny X-Men Issue 33 removes any form of comfort that had started to set in. In many reviews of this series, references are made to warm campfires and the feeling of coming home. And that feeling is suddenly at risk with the kids given such a big shake-up. Read Full Review

Aug 05, 2026It’s not talked about enough how incredibly different Gail Simone makes each issue of The Uncanny X-Men, and each issue is a winner. The Uncanny X-Men #33 is high in emotion and wrapped in layers of different depths. Right now, every character is carrying their own issues, and we get to empathize with each one of them and feel what they feel. That’s the magic of Simone’s writing: she allows the reader to have a personal connection with the characters, making us feel closer and closer to them and the story. Read Full Review

Gambit needs an exorcism. Calico needs therapy. I need a different book.
Seriously, I can’t take this constant entitled whining from the Outliers anymore. I actually liked these kids when they were introduced, but Rogue’s team is treating them like five year olds, not like future X-Men. These kids need to learn how to shut the fuck up and get the job done. All of them except Random are constantly crying about the most trivial things, and instead of the grown ups telling them to get a grip, even their most childish behavior is being validated. Calico in particular is portrayed as a person who has suffered constant abuse from her mother. Simone actually does a good job at showing her trauma in a consistent way - but if she is really more+ Like • Comments (3)• Likes (1) -

Uncanny X-men …here comes the final rant. Gail hyped this issue up on her Facebook page. Here is Gail in her own words. “ Just saying, if you have been away from UNCANNY X-MEN for a bit, today is the day to jump back on board. It's a new arc, and some important new characters are involved, and I can't say more but this is a good jumping back-on point and this story REALLY goes bananas.Gambit needs an exorcist.And the one Rogue found might not be working on the side of the angels!Plus, NEXT issue, it's the first appearance of...well, that would be telling.The last time I did a message like this was the debut of the uber-popular MUTINA, so just saying, it's a GOOD JUMPING ON POINT.” What I read this week was such a jumbled mess full o more -
