Just not down w/ the team lineup. Not a single character is a selling point for me, I may drop.

Out of Gluck reviewed X-Men Blue: Origins #1 Nov 29, 2023
Has some good retcons, has some unnecessary retcons. The X-Office continues to vilify Xavier and soften villains. Can Spurrier be done with Nightcrawler now?
