haven't downloaded it yet, but i heard today's excalibur wasn't terrible.
Edit: oof. nvm. well, everyone is entitled to an opinion, and if they think this issue redeems the book, i’m glad they’re happy. admittedly haven’t read most of the series, so if this one is “good” i don’t want to read the “bad.” the dialogue is so bad as to be nonsensical. it’s cringe. i read xm #1 too, and the dialogue is bad there, too, but the plot is still good. i can’t say the same for excalibur, nothing makes any sense. it could be I just don’t like high-fantasy, with the boring politics/factions arguing with people with unpronounceable names questing to un-spellable places. then inexplicable spells accomplishing conveniently random things. this issue has all of these things. Pete Wisdom is the only remotely interesting person. <—now there’s a sentence I never thought I’d write.
ooo, i love those panels. the two hottest x-men duking it out.
gambit's super fast. 'nother example from xmen 34:
