X-Men #28

By: Gerry Duggan, Joshua Cassara
Released: Nov 1, 2023

HOT AND HEAVY!
Juggernaut has come a long way from his beginnings as a bully transformed into an unstoppable foe of the X-Men. In fact, he'd recently become one of mutantkind's best human allies. So why is he trying to kill Firestar?

X-Men #27

By: Gerry Duggan, Phil Noto

SOMETHING CAUGHT YOUR EYE?
When Cyclops joined this iteration of the X-Men, his pitch was simple - "I am the X-Men." If this is so, the enemies of X-Men seem to have this fight all sewn up.

I guess I’m confused. You keep rating Duggan’s X-Men as a “1”, which is the lowest it could be. It couldn’t be any worse. But you keep reading it? Month after month it is the worst score possible, but you keep reading it? It appears you just have an ax to grind. It’s ok to not like something, but it can’t be worse? Every month? And you’ve read it or else why score it?
