X-Men #1
X-Men #1 – This is another X-Men issue number one, I assume
they get a number one because the title is just X-Men and none of the other
prefixes. This book was sold as the all
women / hot girl version of X-Men. I don’t
know a counterpoint to the DC comic Ame-Comi Girls – in which case at least the
X-Women have their regular costumes and are not sexed up. The story starts with Jubilee and a child
heading to America and Xavier’s School the X-Men base. Rogue, Storm and Kitty Pride had off to
escort Jubilee to the school safely.
There of course is a problem and the X-Men have to save the train and
passengers from a crash. It turns out
the spooky guy who has been following Jubilee was John Sublime an adversary of
the X-Men and if the prologue was correct one of the oldest being in the
universe. He shows up at the school and
surrenders, he wants help defeating his sister Areka Prime who may be worse
than he is (or he just wants protection).
The story was good for a first issue.
I am not sure if I kept collecting issues of this comic if not I may
just grab the collected trade paperback.
