The idea is intriguing to me, but I’ve disliked From the Ashes so much that I no longer buy and can’t invest unless I hear this is amazing.

The X-Men have fought towering, mutant-slaying robot Sentinels before. But never one quite like this. Never a Sentinel made of meat and bone, wearing the skin of one of their own deceased teammates, every technological aspect given a biological solution. And as the X-Men fight for their lives, they’re left to wonder: What could this monstrosity h...

You won’t hear it from me. I hate the concept of alternate futures and alternate X-Men. It has been done to death. The only way I would have enjoyed this, is with a creative team capable of doing something really interesting and intelligent. It would be so easy to get the fans back. Just do one solid X-Men book featuring one of the classic eighties team rosters, either back at the mansion or on the run from mutant haters. Done.
