no, is it bad?

one thing i enjoyed about giant size, and i have to admit, i think part of it finally nailed down the fact that its scott and emma now, not emma being a rebound girl or being a placeholder till jean comes back... scott's with emma, she's good for him, and he's good for her... and i have to say, i like it...

Found it,

Agreed, can't wait for Ellis's run, his Thunderbolts was nothing but awesome.

It's a good time to be a Scott and Emma fan.

They're main stays in Uncanny X-Men and Astonishing X-Men.

The last issue of Young X-Men really screwed with my Donald Pierce theory. Maybe that is the real Cyclops?

CYCLOPS
"Cyclops is the best superhero in the world. He is, as far as I'm concerned, the Batman. He's been in intensive training since his early teenage years to lead the first-ever mutant rescue and security team. This is a guy who gets up every morning asking himself how he can be better."

every doubt i had about this book has just disappeared...

maybe they'll explain why emma wanted to settle down and the insane reason scott wanted to not be in full control of his powers...

I found something interesting, Greg Pak on Warsong and Emma Frost...oh and Squirrel Girl was not on Earth during WWH

http://www.brokenfrontier.com/columns/details.php?id=872

1.) Where was Squirrel Girl during “World of War Hulk”?

GP: Dan Slott tells me she was fighting Galactus.

HM: 2.) Why was Celeste able to act as a host for the Phoenix Force in Phoenix Warsong and Emma unable to in Phoenix Endsong? From what I understood Emma insinuated that it had something to do with herself being cold emotionally. Does that mean the host of the Phoenix Force has to be full of passion and positive emotion?

GP: In the last issue of “Warsong,” Emma tells Celeste, “I trained you so stupidly -- tried to make you cold and cynical. Because that’s how I survived. But you’re stronger than that. Stronger than me.” That might mean that Celeste’s psionic potential is actually stronger than Emma’s. Or it might imply that to host the Phoenix requires a willingness to open oneself up or give oneself away in a way that Emma couldn’t. I’ll leave it up for readers to draw their own conclusions.

HM: 3.) What do you think of Emma Frost as a character and will we see her shine in the next X-Men related story you write?

GP: Emma’s a fantastic character -- like many of the characters I’m most drawn to writing, she’s a borderline figure, always dancing close to that line between hero and monster. But I don’t have another project with her on tap just yet. The next X-Men related story I’m writing is “Magneto: Testament,” which follows a young Magneto and his family as they struggle to survive in Germany and Poland from 1935 to 1945.

Here's another SG one:

1.) I’d like your personal opinion on who is Marvel’s strongest character by strength. From your point of view, do you believe the Hulk or Juggernaut is more powerful (other than cosmic-characters or Gods)?

GP: On several occasions, the Hulk has more than held his own against gods like Hercules and Thor. But against cosmic entities like Galactus, even I would be hard pressed to bet on my beloved Green Goliath. Squirrel Girl, on the other hand...

top five cover i must say.

screw the extraneous white leaves, but yes. damn fine cover.

uncanny 499 preview...

no choi on the san francisco pages... w.t.f.

though, the possibility of

Spoiler:
cyclops singlehandedly schooling the 4 x-men
isn't exactly something i'd be against...

also, colossus = badass...

Inferno style?

X-Men Legacy 213 might have redeemed Sinister as a character after that pathetic death,

I liked Bru's UXM

And San Francisco love the X-Men.
