Inhumanity 1
Can’t believe Inhumanity is kicking off as soon as Infinity is over. Have little to no interest in this one. At least, at this moment. I do like Matt Fraction and Oliver Coipel though.
The only time I’ve really liked the Inhumans was with Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee.
There was also that time in the 90s where I was really into the Magneto / Hank Pym families and how awesome all of those characters are.
Uncanny X-Men 15.INH
Has Kitty Pryde in the issue for an All Girls Night, where Kitty is going to hang with Emma and Magik! That is pretty awesome already! Kitty and Illyana have spent almost no time together except for the issue where Colossus turned into Juggerossus.
Inhumanity : The Awakening
Pending on how much the Jean Grey School staff is involved in Infinity: The Hunk and now this mini, might have an interest.
Origin II
Ooof, so now James Holwett’s time in the wilderness is only like five years and then he becomes a plaything for Mr. Sinister, that sounds horrible and I really dig Kieron Gillen.
Cataclysm: The Ultimates’ Last Stand 3
I still suspect that I’ll only be interested in the X-Men mini but Kitty might be involved in the main story, who knows.
Cataclysm: Ultimate X-Men 2
Will be buying this, hopefully Kitty is not the one to die!
Amazing Spider-Man 700.1-5
Ooof, that doesn’t sound good at all but I guess the trade will be out in time for Amazing Spider-Man 2, but there has to be better ways to do this.
Marvel Knights X-Men 2
Sort of getting excited about this. I like the new talent and the story sounds good.
Amazing X-Men 2
Still no sign of Kitty in this, shoot!
All-New X-Men 20
Sounds like the series is still going on, fallout still happening but X-23 is now being spotlighted. Not sure if this is on my must buy list anymore.
X-Men 8
This is for sure on my must buys. Frenzy might be joining the team, that might add an interesting perspective. Only really followed her during Age of X and then she sort of got lost in the shuffle.
Wolverine and the X-Men 39
More fallout but Wolverine and Cyclops together? Should be interesting.,
Wolverine 12
Kitty is not mentioned in this solict, so I might only be on for issues 9, 10 and 11.
Savage Wolverine 13
But what’s this!?! Kitty Pryde showing up in this title, and drawn by Phil Jimenez!?! Yes please! And written by him too!
Uncanny X-Force 15
One of the cast dies. And it can’t be Psylocke or Storm, so now isn’t a good time to be Puck
Longshot Saves the Marvel Universe 3 & 4
Wolverine, King of the Vampires, was an awesome What If? story back in the day, I doubt they will reference it in this mini, but awesome if they did.
In the Trades section,
X-Men Days of Future Past for $40 for the hardcover.
X-MEN (1963) #141, UNCANNY X-MEN (1963) #142, X-MEN ANNUAL (1970) #14, EXCALIBUR (1988) #52 and #66-67, and WOLVERINE: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST #1-3; and material from FANTASTIC FOUR ANNUAL #23, NEW MUTANTS ANNUAL #6, X-FACTOR ANNUAL #5 and HULK: BROKEN WORLDS #2.
141 and 142 are the story proper. The annuals are the Days of Present story with Franklin from DoFP and the Excalibur issues are like an awesome sequel. The Wolverine mini and Hulk: Broken Words are prequels apparently. Will have to look into the Hulk issue as I’ve never heard of it.
So my totals are:
5 buys must buys and 5 maybes. $15 or $30, that is well within budget and during Christmas time so that is pretty good too!
Shadow and Flame with Magik
