All New X-men 2012 / Uncanny X-men 2013

Started by Quincy9 pages

I like Bachalo's work on Wolverine and the X-men way more than on the Uncanny book. His Iceman and Quentin Quire are perfect.

Uncanny X-men #6

* hmmm... ok, so here's the cover:

http://s16.postimg.org/tnsx7f2lh/image.jpg

* one thing i see is that, as much as i hate Chris Bachalo's art, i would rather pick him against Frazer Irving's...

* for starters, there's a 30-year-old guy named David whose girlfriend broke up with him via text message and is now moving out, but he managed to control the car: when he said stop, the car stopped... and when he said come back, it came back... now, that's a mutant power! i just don't know if it's psionic or magical in nature...

http://s23.postimg.org/qi7w9gz7f/image.jpg

* then we go back to the X-men in Limbo...

http://s10.postimg.org/4bvv66q0p/image.jpg

* Cyclops tried to blast Dormmamu... ok, so it is now very apparent that Cyclops doesn't wear his iconic ruby-quartz visor anymore, and he has to remove the entire head/face mask to unleash a mega-optic blast... i hate it...

http://s2.postimg.org/vba0hxstl/image.jpg

* but these blasts does not budge Dormmamu, and it only led to Magik being pissed off and controlled by the demon sorcerer...

http://s11.postimg.org/6rxbhrkib/image.jpg

* meanwhile, Maria Hill and Phil Coulson talked... Maria muses over the mutant issue while analyzing the sentinel that attacked in Uncanny X-men #1... and she wants another approach on how to thwart Cyclops and his ongoing revolution... surprise!

http://s18.postimg.org/dcybrf5m1/image.jpg

* the battle begins in Limbo! X-men Assemble! 😛 and then... poink! poink! poink! poink! poink! poink! poink! poink! poink! poink! the sound of these gold balls crack me up! 😆

* as a Marvel Avengers Alliance player in Facebook, i kinda got thrilled when i saw some Mindless Ones...

http://avengersalliance.wikia.com/wiki/Mindless_One

* so here's the surprise, just like in Uncanny X-men #1 (when Magneto was revealed to be the traitor)... this mutant wants her race to be treated equally as well, but doesn't trust a team where Magneto is whispering into the ear of Cyclops (well, as if that's true)... and this mutant doesn’t trust Cyclops and his revolution... who's this? drumroll, please ---

http://s17.postimg.org/ka2kam76n/image.jpg

* it's Alison Blaire herself, Dazzler! she's the new agent of S.H.I.E.L.D... hmmm... Dazzler became an excellent team leader in her own right in her run in X-Treme X-Men... during the schism between Cyclops and Wolverine, she chooses to remain in San Francisco with Cyclops' side... then she gets sucked through a portal and is whisked away from Earth-616 universe, missing the events of AvX... i remember her visiting 616 briefly after AvX, teaming-up with Cyclops...

and now, she's the one who'll lead the S.H.I.E.L.D against Cyclops? and not to mention, in X-Treme X-Men, Dazzler and the black Cyclops (from that dimension) were lovers... this should be interesting...

All New X-men #12

* the confrontation ---

http://s9.postimg.org/8s85gi9nz/image.jpg

* and can i just say how much of an a$shole is Captain America in here? the cold-hearted bastard does not want Havok to share a moment with his time-displaced brother... what's the matter with you, Steve? what a douche...

* and since little Jean has this habit of peeping into others' thoughts, she managed to learn about the crime of Scarlet Witch... and she throws a tantrum like a little baby.... but who can blame her? Wanda almost wiped out an entire species or race (eventhough under the influence of Doom), and she still roams around as an Avenger?

* but Cyclops is under the influence of the Phoenix Force, killed Xavier and created a global utopia... and he is a freakin' fugitive...

http://s8.postimg.org/f4tmymqwl/image.jpg
http://s23.postimg.org/ypcr3lvkr/image.jpg

* meanwhile, the robbery continues... all by Mystique, Lady Mastermind and Sabretooth...

http://s22.postimg.org/744b1me4x/image.jpg

* they managed to calm Jean down... Cap and Logan talked, and they came to the conclusion that this is a work of a shape-shifter named Mystique...

http://s16.postimg.org/rlpl9o6it/image.jpg

* back to normal, but as soon as the Uncanny Avengers proved that the O5 X-men are not responsible for the robbery, they just left and let the X-men take care of the problem...

* O5 Scott pointed out that it is a mutant problem, so shouldn't mutants take take of it? but Rogue said they're trying to dissolve this "mutant problems" and "human problems", they are just "problems"... nice speech, they are the Uncanny Avengers, the combination of Avengers and X-men working together to solve all problems of humans and mutants alike... and yet they left... they should've help them solve the problem with Mystique, because that's their purpose... but they left...

http://s16.postimg.org/h1ouikgsl/image.jpg

* Cap told them to go back to the school... but Logan have other plans...

* Jean brought up the issue again about Wanda... and the best answer Logan can muster up is: "it's complicated", yeah like the relationship status in Facebook...

http://s24.postimg.org/bhnirvt45/image.jpg

* and they're going to battle Mystique!

http://s12.postimg.org/kxnuevrod/image.jpg

* i'm not entirely satisfied how Jean managed to freak out when she learns about the crime of Wanda, and Bendis not mentioning the exact parallelism and hypocrisy that there are two crimes committed, the other one was pronounced a fugitive, while the other one was made to be an Avenger... sigh...

kinda late but here it goes...

this is dedicated to All New X-men and Uncanny X-men, but i'll give the all-female X-men a try...

X-men #1

http://s21.postimg.org/tkr494o0n/image.jpg

* the start...

http://s24.postimg.org/dc7o814mt/image.jpg

* now we see Jubilee with a baby... the narration goes on to say that she is going back to the X-men, she is going home...

http://s14.postimg.org/rzg2ylu41/image.jpg

* in the Jean Grey Institute, we see Bilng and Mercury in a quarrel, and Rachel & Storm came in to break them up... until Rogue and Kitty comes in...

http://s13.postimg.org/qazdsb8c7/image.jpg

* so after arriving via plane from Europe, Jubilee gets on a train, and we see someone following her... so Rogue, Kitty and Storm tries to rescue her... with Jubilee being oblivious to the situation...

http://s16.postimg.org/efn7i3irp/image.jpg

* so Jubilee told them that the baby is an orphan, she rescued from a terrorist bombing and the only thing she thought to protect the baby is to go to the X-men... the baby cried and it seems the baby has powers...

http://s1.postimg.org/b7uj66b0f/image.jpg

* the drivers of the train are dead, and the train goes out of control... and Rogue tries to stop the train like the bruiser she is...

http://s11.postimg.org/u0scs70tv/image.jpg

* Jubilee's stalker was revealed to be John Sublime, and he immendiately surrenders... he was being interrogated by Rachel and Psylocke, and he says he needs help from his sister whose power is possessing machines the way Sublime possesses people...

http://s8.postimg.org/ua75oyo0l/image.jpg

* Jubilee arrives at the institute with the baby, she gets a warm welcome from her fellow X-men and a nice clean room... Sublime makes clear that his sister is dangerous and he's not equipped to handle her... the baby used Jubilee's cell phone to pull off more mischief...

http://s13.postimg.org/g7f99wgzb/image.jpg

* the baby ends up using Jubilee's cell phone to access Hank's lab... then, Sublime's sister with a billion-year grudge emerges in the body of Omega Sentinel... a perfect host!

http://s4.postimg.org/tc4vurc3h/image.jpg

to be continued...

All New X-men #13

http://s11.postimg.org/kqvhr6l8j/image.jpg

* as from the last episode, Team Wolverine here are going to confront Mystique... O5 Iceman talks about how O5 Angel left them and that O5 Scott has a brother in this reality...

http://s17.postimg.org/681eebcdb/image.jpg

* and to where they were going to, they needed to be cloaked just like the plane they are in... and Wolverine tells Jean that plan... and Kitty helps Jean on how to project her thoughts on others so it would appear that they are invisible...

http://s11.postimg.org/908dibdoj/image.jpg

* Jean seems to be getting the hang of it at first, but eventually, the guards were able to see them...

http://s7.postimg.org/g72cpvzy3/image.jpg

* Mystique has a plan... it goes with a drama that Xavier died and it opened her eyes to something... and Silver Samurai arrived with someone...

http://s18.postimg.org/n257y3eex/image.jpg

* back in the X-men's plane, they heard Havok's speech and about the "M-word"... what in the blue hell is Havok trying to pull? he is a mutant, and making the term "mutant" as something synonymous to discrimination, that's treachery to your own race in my book... at least O5 Scott and Jean had some moment, because Jean was demoralized on what happened earlier...

http://s24.postimg.org/ixz5evdbp/image.jpg

* pissed off at Havok, Kitty's speech says it all... it effectively draws a line between what the All New X-men are doing and what the Uncanny Avengers are doing... it shows that the Avengers and the X-men still don't see eye-to-eye when it comes to addressing mutant issues...

http://s17.postimg.org/5djg60twf/image.jpg

* Silver Samurai arrived with Madam Hydra who controls Madripoor, and Mystique offers her the money to buy it from her... hmmm, is Mystique trying to pull Cyclops' Utopia here?

http://s13.postimg.org/6goi24cxz/image.jpg

* the X-men arrive to the party...

http://s23.postimg.org/obq4h5ijv/image.jpg

* and the entity we thought was "no more" at the end of AvX, is again manifesting... with Lady Mastermind showing her wrath at it, because of his father...

http://s21.postimg.org/eift725nr/image.jpg

Uncanny X-men #7

http://s11.postimg.org/yqteoyeir/image.jpg

* we see Magik sitting before Dr. Strange... my goodness! Strange, Dormammu, the limbo... this should have been awesome if the artist very good... so this is somewhat a pattern here... like in the very first episode, we see the current events and contents are all flashbacks from the past event that transpired...

http://s10.postimg.org/cpz8fl2cp/image.jpg

* so this is Magik telling Dr. Strange to story of what happened with the X-men while in limbo with Dormammu...

http://s21.postimg.org/gq2vxblev/image.jpg

* while the rest of the X-men are taking on Dormammu's minions, Magik takes on Dormammu himself... and Magik figures that since Dormammu draws so much of his power from Limbo, she might as well harm it even more to harm him in return...

http://s15.postimg.org/jwfind2pn/image.jpg

* but what should have been a triumphant ending, turns into a circus when the broken powers of the tenured and the lack of experience of the newbies get the better of the team...

http://s18.postimg.org/rasy3f2yh/image.jpg

* the team is losing the battle and although i think it's very uncharacteristic in Magik's part, she sacrificed herself and absorbed an entire dimension and imploded (or so it seemed)...

http://s23.postimg.org/bmdwxvzu3/image.jpg

* Magik managed to teleport the team back home, with Benjamin the shape-shifter being the casualty of war...

http://s7.postimg.org/wkwg39sqj/image.jpg

* Christopher the healer managed to save Benjamin's life, with the help of Emma and the Cuckoos...

http://s24.postimg.org/r9ihx0ldh/image.jpg

* Fabio the poinker of gold balls went into a tantrum and wants to go home...

http://s24.postimg.org/n1sb209bp/image.jpg

* since Magik is able to teleport through time and space, the Dr. Strange she was talking with might be from a different dimension or reality... and they begin their therapy sessions...

http://s24.postimg.org/yab33jcj9/image.jpg

X-men #2

http://s22.postimg.org/rp6msolbl/image.jpg

* John Sublime's sister, Arkea, arrives possessing the body of Omega Sentinel... her first move is to beat the sh!t out of Beast (serves him right) and hack the files of the school...

http://s22.postimg.org/z1dblbgr5/image.jpg

* Arkea activated the Danger Room Triple-Dark Security protocols... wow, what the hell is that? and Rachel tried to override it but to no avail...

http://s18.postimg.org/evbapogdl/image.jpg

* Rogue arrives and although she got the better at first, Arkea came back with hand blast, literally...

http://s8.postimg.org/su5c56j05/image.jpg

* they need to protect Jubilee and they all need Sublime's help to win against her sister...

http://s18.postimg.org/n61pb91bd/image.jpg

* Arkea has already taken down Rogue... Kitty tries to reach out to Omega Sentinel... and threatens her by saying that if she phases through her, she'll effectively kill both her and Omega Sentinel... so Arkea left...

http://s9.postimg.org/ha0ywqw4f/image.jpg

* so Arkea is on the loose... east, over the Atlantic... they reluctantly needs Sublime now...

http://s8.postimg.org/9g93j8gxh/image.jpg

* and reluctantly, Storm allows Jubilee and baby Shogo in the Blackbird jet to battle Arkea... weird...

http://s24.postimg.org/tphf3v35h/image.jpg

* a moment with Sublime and Jubilee... where Sublime called the baby as "Jubilee's son"... oookkkaaayyy...

http://s13.postimg.org/yzhiqbes7/image.jpg

* back at the institute... something's about to go boom!

http://s17.postimg.org/f0r1mxlin/image.jpg

so that's it... whew! 🙂

Total mutant implosion. This story is brilliant. Wanda is my hero. Hank is a hero. Scott is a criminal and should be in prison.

/truth

^ X-Men is currently piquing my interest to levels I haven't had in a long time. 👆

X-Men by Wood and Coipiel is probably the best mainstream comics on the stands right now.

* ah, no... wait, you're joking, right? 😄

Uncanny X-men #8

http://s11.postimg.org/rc6f9dusz/image.jpg

* oookkkaaayyy... the cover is Cyclops getting a punch from Magneto...

* so after Fabio the "poinker" went into a tantrum and wanted to go home, he gets his wish... no hard feelings... Scott and Emma even gave him good advices... but there's someone spying on them...

http://s24.postimg.org/67a76620l/image.jpg

* after their stint with Dormammu, the team is in dire need ot training, obviously... but no one can blame them since they have just started recently...

http://s7.postimg.org/l6bervg1n/image.jpg

* remember him? the guy who just lost his girlfriend and finds out he can control cars? well, here he is again...

http://s23.postimg.org/61d3458az/image.jpg

* and so it happens... another mutant discrimination...

http://s23.postimg.org/ffj0nxoi3/image.jpg

* Magik and the Cuckoos are here to save the day... the guy's name is David Bond, and he was now offered a place in Cyclops' X-men...

http://s16.postimg.org/rbu2dbhut/image.jpg

* the Cyclops-Magneto chit-chat...

http://s13.postimg.org/hg39u7fkn/image.jpg

* the X-men welcomed David...

http://s15.postimg.org/fo5izdauz/image.jpg

* unfortunately, Fabio's welcome party is not as good as David's... his family can't even understand that he's now a mutant... and the gold balls does not come out from his butt... 😂

http://s12.postimg.org/t4xugwtjx/image.jpg

* enter Dazzler! so if Emma, Magik and the Cuckoos are not enough, they add another blonde bombshell to the mix... and she wants to know where is Cyclops...

http://s16.postimg.org/93x8cfep1/image.jpg

* well, i find this pretty awkward since she already teamed-up with Cyke in Xtreme X-men after the events of AvX... or an alternate of hers at least...

* and in that dimension/reality, she and a black Cyclops dude were lovers (Xtreme X-men #11)...

http://s2.postimg.org/lcr2h0z15/image.jpg
http://s7.postimg.org/5e14wb5rv/image.jpg

All New X-men #14

* the cover... ugh! why do they always make misleading covers???

http://s9.postimg.org/9i7xpn4bz/image.jpg

* so we go on from the last episode... the Dark Phoenix emerges!

http://s21.postimg.org/50g26l4fb/image.jpg

* and as if his claws can really do something, Wolverine does what Wolverine does best, and that's charge and attack... well, only to find out that Jean wasn't really being controlled by Lady Mastermind... Jean was the one who created the Dark Phoenix projection and it was intended only for the enemies... talk about spoilsport... but hey, it gave them enough time to kick the enemies' butt...

* my only problem here is that, as skillful as Mystique, and with decades of experience in her resumé, the novice Jean was able to tag her square in the face with a vicious kick...

http://s23.postimg.org/9udlh2i23/image.jpg

* Lady Mastermind tries to project her own illusion, in Professor Charles Xavier, to distract the X-men, but to no avail... but it pays off when Mystique managed to shoot Wolverine with a gun... good job, Raven!

http://s7.postimg.org/nrhy5i817/image.jpg

* but Jean retaliated, giving in-depth comparison of their powers... Lady Mastermind = illusion... Jean = reality... the action continues...

http://s24.postimg.org/95gcrtm05/image.jpg

* this is one of the most embarrassing moments of Victor Creed... Jean makes him whine and sleep like a baby, just like Wolverine in the early issues...

http://s24.postimg.org/ygpnm2jz9/image.jpg

* Lady Mastermind's desperate move was to project an illusion of the Uncanny Avengers, but Kitty Pryde made her pay... only to find out the the real deal did arrive on the scene...

http://s17.postimg.org/3uh7m9v9r/image.jpg

* this makes an awkward but funny moment on O5 Iceman and Thor... it also shows a good moment on Havok and O5 Cyclops...

how i wish that the mainstream Cyclops can also have a nice moment with his teenage counterpart...

http://s24.postimg.org/r5u59y3l1/image.jpg

* and ooh-la-la... this may count as a funny out-of-context comic scan, but Mystique is just plain hot in here, and considering the question on what am i going to do with her? well, who in the blue hell knows?

http://img545.imageshack.us/img545/1433/y54p.jpg

* so, anyway... after drooling on the unconscious Mystique, what happened next was, they decided to put her to S.H.I.E.L.D prison camp... and without missing a heartbeat, Mystique escaped using the very same trick she did when she infiltrated the S.H.I.E.L.D premises in the earlier issues: shape-shifting into Maria Hill... so that's it, S.H.I.E.L.D is now bombarded by bonafide idiotic agents...

http://s12.postimg.org/p64b90yz1/image.jpg

* lastly, eventhough Jean was a bada$s in that mission, she's still in emo mode...

http://s11.postimg.org/qr9mb7s37/image.jpg

* ooh! looky here... the next episode is "Love is in the air", and this is the preview cover:

http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130516205036/marveldatabase/images/c/ce/All-New_X-Men_Vol_1_15_Textless.jpg

* sigh! can they just stop hurting poor O5 Cyclops' feelings? that dude has had enough... i would like him to be in mainstream Cyclops' team, and just be with one of the Cuckoos, or Tempus, or even Magik...

* this is the cover that i want to be misleading...

Uncanny X-men #9

* the cover ---

http://s12.postimg.org/tey21vej1/image.jpg

* so here we see Dazzler going to Fabio the poinker's house with his family... it does not go well, and went to the point that Fabio's father pulled a gun at her... but Dazzler demonstrates the physics of flashbang...

http://s13.postimg.org/gj85ln6hz/image.jpg

* at the New Xavier School for the Gifted, the team is out on the field and David demonstrates his mutant power... his mutant power is not limited to cars, by the way... it extends to all machines, and this time... a jet...

http://s13.postimg.org/jh54fce5j/image.jpg

* the Stepford Cuckoos quarreled... Irma cut and dyed her hair black, and Celeste was irate... Phoebe quipped that maybe she'll go for red... Triage (Christopher Muse) seemed to like Irma's hair and she smiled... she got the attention of the boy she likes (it seems)...

* Magneto heard the news, S.H.I.E.L.D picked up Fabio...

http://s16.postimg.org/u5c6aryr9/image.jpg

* Dazzler interrogated Fabio... she plainly asks how Cyclops kidnapped him, but Fabio retaliates that he did not and it was her who kidnapped him...

* S.H.I.E.L.D panicked when they realized that Cyclops' X-men has Cerebro and they can detect their whereabouts in no time...

http://s9.postimg.org/eg9eaexfz/image.jpg

* pretty soon, the X-men arrived and one time bubble after (courtesy of Eva Bell a.k.a Tempus), Magik teleported Maria Hill to a beach, and meet Dazzler...

http://s14.postimg.org/iyl0ymipd/image.jpg

* Dazzler never put on a fight physically, but they engaged in word war... with Scott, by refusing his offer to join the team, telling Alison that she would look like the Uncle Tom of mutants... and Alison retaliated that Cyclops is the Sirhan Sirhan of mutants...

* they eventually rescued Fabio without a sweat...

http://s7.postimg.org/q1brinxkb/image.jpg

* Scott baptized David with his monicker: Hijack... and his first test is to control the whole S.H.I.E.L.D flight deck helicarrier (as in the flight deck in the Facebook game: Marvel Avengers Alliance)...

http://s22.postimg.org/7be7lvehd/image.jpg

* meanwhile, Dazzler shared a cup of coffee with Agent Coulson... the only problem is, that the coffee isn't a coffee and that person she's with? isn't Agent Coulson...

http://s14.postimg.org/mv3erqa0h/image.jpg

All New X-men #15

* the cover ---

http://s23.postimg.org/tgegw4wvv/image.jpg

* so Rachel comes back to the Jean Grey School... too exhausted, she avoids conversation with Storm, and meets her time-displaced mom...

http://s11.postimg.org/p236um51v/image.jpg

* no talks, just walks... nothing happened...

http://www.comicbookresources.com/assets/images/preview/ul/ANXMEN2012015-int-LR-3-56b23.jpg

* meanwhile, O5 Scott is busy composing a love letter to Jean... and O5 Iceman arrives...

http://www.comicbookresources.com/assets/images/preview/ul/ANXMEN2012015-int-LR-4-b84ea.jpg

* only funny part here is how disgusted O5 Iceman is when witnessed his adult self making out with his Professor Kitty... he really hates his mentor... and they decided to go out of the school...

http://s21.postimg.org/4oynhjno7/image.jpg

* now Jean turned to adult Beast to help her pratice her telekinesis... and destroys Wolverine's motorcycle by accident... oh, O5 Scott and O5 Iceman just stole Wolverine's jeep...

http://s18.postimg.org/x7n7wmqih/image.jpg

* so O5 Scott and O5 Iceman went to the county fair and meet some ladies... with Wolverine's cash, of course... fresh from killing...

http://s10.postimg.org/9ab90my7d/image.jpg

* now here comes the scary part... since Jean has this habit of intruding other people's thoughts, he read adult Beast's mind and learned that he was in love with her when they were young... and he just hid his feelings, buried his head in books and let her pine after Scott...

http://s18.postimg.org/gl5nnjxkp/image.jpg

* meanwhile, at the fair... O5 Scott and O5 Iceman are having good time chatting with the ladies... and they even revealed that they are the time-displaced X-men...

http://s7.postimg.org/4yplc2qdn/image.jpg

* now here's the disgusting part (at least, for me... i don't know about you)... once Jean finds out that adult Beast had a crush on her before, she confronts his teenage self and they have an awkward chat... but this chat gets downright sickening because O5 Beast admits that he's in love with her, but left her to O5 Scott... then Jean, in a move that could make me puke, says she's not in love with O5 Scott and freakin' kisses O5 Beast... eeww!!! (the cover did tell the truth! and i was hoping it was not... i was complaining about the misleading covers in the last episode, but ironically, i was hoping it was a misleading cover this time, but no!)...

http://s23.postimg.org/8gu8a9mrf/image.jpg

* back to O5 Scott and O5 Iceman... they played heroes for a routine car chase...

http://s11.postimg.org/4cznjkob7/image.jpg

* Wolverine arrived and told them that it's going-home time... not before the ladies gave them their numbers... where we see a familiar figure who just graced Uncanny X-men... we see Dazzler/Mystique...

http://s9.postimg.org/6dv2l4m7j/image.jpg

* so we get another awkward moments of Jean and Rachel, again no talks... then she takes out the wedding invitation that O5 Scott gave her at the end of All New X-men #7 which hasn't even been mentioned until now... given what she just did with O5 Beast, it's not even clear what it means at this point... what? she's torn between O5 Scott and O5 Beast? d@mn, you just kissed O5 Beast, remember? stupid teenage Jean...

* so here we see Dazzler going to Fabio the poinker's house with his family... it does not go well, and went to the point that Fabio's father pulled a gun at her... but Dazzler demonstrates the physics of flashbang...

* at the New Xavier School for the Gifted, the team is out on the field and David demonstrates his mutant power... his mutant power is not limited to cars, by the way... it extends to all machines, and this time... a jet...

* the Stepford Cuckoos quarreled... Irma cut and dyed her hair black, and Celeste was irate... Phoebe quipped that maybe she'll go for red... Triage (Christopher Muse) seemed to like Irma's hair and she smiled... she got the attention of the boy she likes (it seems)...

* Magneto heard the news, S.H.I.E.L.D picked up Fabio...

http://s16.postimg.org/u5c6aryr9/image.jpg

* Dazzler interrogated Fabio... she plainly asks how Cyclops kidnapped him, but Fabio retaliates that he did not and it was her who kidnapped him...

* S.H.I.E.L.D panicked when they realized that Cyclops' X-men has Cerebro and they can detect their whereabouts in no time...

* pretty soon, the X-men arrived and one time bubble after (courtesy of Eva Bell a.k.a Tempus), Magik teleported Maria Hill to a beach, and meet Dazzler...

* Dazzler never put on a fight physically, but they engaged in word war... with Scott, by refusing his offer to join the team, telling Alison that she would look like the Uncle Tom of mutants... and Alison retaliated that Cyclops is the Sirhan Sirhan of mutants...

* they eventually rescued Fabio without a sweat...

* Scott baptized David with his monicker: Hijack... and his first test is to control the whole S.H.I.E.L.D flight deck helicarrier (as in the flight deck in the Facebook game: Marvel Avengers Alliance)...

* meanwhile, Dazzler shared a cup of coffee with Agent Coulson... the only problem is, that the coffee isn't a coffee and that person she's with? isn't Agent Coulson...

All New X-men #15

* the cover ---

http://s23.postimg.org/tgegw4wvv/image.jpg

* so Rachel comes back to the Jean Grey School... too exhausted, she avoids conversation with Storm, and meets her time-displaced mom...

http://s11.postimg.org/p236um51v/image.jpg

* no talks, just walks... nothing happened...

http://www.comicbookresources.com/assets/images/preview/ul/ANXMEN2012015-int-LR-3-56b23.jpg

* meanwhile, O5 Scott is busy composing a love letter to Jean... and O5 Iceman arrives...

http://www.comicbookresources.com/assets/images/preview/ul/ANXMEN2012015-int-LR-4-b84ea.jpg

* only funny part here is how disgusted O5 Iceman is when witnessed his adult self making out with his Professor Kitty... he really hates his mentor... and they decided to go out of the school...

http://s21.postimg.org/4oynhjno7/image.jpg

* now Jean turned to adult Beast to help her pratice her telekinesis... and destroys Wolverine's motorcycle by accident... oh, O5 Scott and O5 Iceman just stole Wolverine's jeep...

http://s18.postimg.org/x7n7wmqih/image.jpg

* so O5 Scott and O5 Iceman went to the county fair and meet some ladies... with Wolverine's cash, of course... fresh from killing...

http://s10.postimg.org/9ab90my7d/image.jpg

* now here comes the scary part... since Jean has this habit of intruding other people's thoughts, he read adult Beast's mind and learned that he was in love with her when they were young... and he just hid his feelings, buried his head in books and let her pine after Scott...

http://s18.postimg.org/gl5nnjxkp/image.jpg

* meanwhile, at the fair... O5 Scott and O5 Iceman are having good time chatting with the ladies... and they even revealed that they are the time-displaced X-men...

http://s7.postimg.org/4yplc2qdn/image.jpg

* now here's the disgusting part (at least, for me... i don't know about you)... once Jean finds out that adult Beast had a crush on her before, she confronts his teenage self and they have an awkward chat... but this chat gets downright sickening because O5 Beast admits that he's in love with her, but left her to O5 Scott... then Jean, in a move that could make me puke, says she's not in love with O5 Scott and freakin' kisses O5 Beast... eeww!!! (the cover did tell the truth! and i was hoping it was not... i was complaining about the misleading covers in the last episode, but ironically, i was hoping it was a misleading cover this time, but no!)...

http://s23.postimg.org/8gu8a9mrf/image.jpg

* back to O5 Scott and O5 Iceman... they played heroes for a routine car chase...

http://s11.postimg.org/4cznjkob7/image.jpg

* Wolverine arrived and told them that it's going-home time... not before the ladies gave them their numbers... where we see a familiar figure who just graced Uncanny X-men... we see Dazzler/Mystique...

http://s9.postimg.org/6dv2l4m7j/image.jpg

* so we get another awkward moments of Jean and Rachel, again no talks... then she takes out the wedding invitation that O5 Scott gave her at the end of All New X-men #7 which hasn't even been mentioned until now... given what she just did with O5 Beast, it's not even clear what it means at this point... what? she's torn between O5 Scott and O5 Beast? d@mn, you just kissed O5 Beast, remember? stupid teenage Jean...

http://s18.postimg.org/yhq38sqm1/image.jpg

* next issue: X-men: Battle of the Atom... the first major X-Men crossover event in over three years... three X-Men universes will collide... we already seen the O5 X-men of the past, and now the X-men in the future! they've traveled back in time with a warning: the O5 X-Men need to go back to their rightful time or they will be the final nail in mutantkind's coffin... they risked everything to come to the past and won't leave until they are back in the past...

* what a way to start the Battle of the Atom... with Jean kissing O5 Beast still lingering in our minds... and here's the preview:
