It's called THE CHAMPIONS. It needs to be supported so it brings about appearances by the original THE CHAMPIONS.

Nobody on the New Champions was even around when the original version was dreamed up!

There will be an exciting crossover event when the new The Champions meet the original The Champions. Mark my words.
Ralph needs The Champions classic back in print after he lost his softcovers.

just read this months Wolverine and Deadpool, the X23 stories are just getting more and more filler crap its beyond a joke, the teaser for next months makes me think its run out of steam already!
On a side note theres a full page spread about Civil War 2 coming soon, maybe earlier than we anticipated then?

It was, about the point the X-Men film came out last year.
The covers are homages to previous Apocalypse apoearances.
Not read these yet!

first one was really good, I'm quite impressed actually, makes a change from recent issues that felt a bit filler-ish

X-Men is in the doldrums right now.
Will come back to PaniniVision again for Blue and Gold.

What is Apocalypse Wars. Was it terrible?

Post by Philip Ayres on Feb 12, 2017 20:54:20 GMT
It's a three storyline X-Men event. One set in the past (All New), one in the present (Uncanny), one in the future (Extraordinary).
Only just read the first parts so can't comment.

What is Apocalypse Wars. Was it terrible? Yes. Only decent X-Men I've read recently was Worst X-Man Ever mini. Read that.

Silver Surfer to return in MWOM 7 Ms Marvel *AND* Black Widow dumped for Silver Surfer & Guardians of the Galaxy. I think I might be done with MWOM for a while.

I am not happy with GOTG returning (is it still Bendis pish?) though am pleased to see Silver Surfer back. I was enjoying Ms Marvel and Black Widow. Not sure it's a good idea to lose both female starring strips at the same time. Unless they'd run out of material?

2 months back I said: The one I picked for the boot stays! Will check GOTG. Is the new film due soon par chance?

The Doctor Strange movie was a big hit so I can see the sense in keeping it. GOTG makes sense as there is a new film in April.
Puzzled why both female-led strips are being booted though. As much as I enjoy Silver Surfer it could have waited for a while. I also think having a Muslim superhero strip is something that should stay in these horrible racist times we now live in so I think Ms Marvel should have been retained. I also think it's a good all-ages read and balanced out the overall book well.

The Doctor Strange movie was a big hit so I can see the sense in keeping it. and is about to hit on dvd GOTG makes sense as there is a new film in April. So definitely a film tie in then. From the cover it appears to be Guardians of the Galaxy v4 #1 which is a long way on from the last GOTG to appear in MWOM which was in the previous MWOM volume, issue 7, and GOTG v3 #10 marvel.wikia.com/wiki/Guardians_of_the_Galaxy_Vol_3marvel.wikia.com/wiki/Guardians_of_the_Galaxy_Vol_4Since then GOTGv3 11 & 12 were printed in Essential X-Men 13 & 14 (Trial of Jean Grey) and GOTGv3 24 & 25 were printed in Essential X-Men 23 & 24 (Black Vortex). Two GOTG issues separate this story from that. Puzzled why both female-led strips are being booted though. As much as I enjoy Silver Surfer it could have waited for a while. I also think having a Muslim superhero strip is something that should stay in these horrible racist times we now live in so I think Ms Marvel should have been retained. I also think it's a good all-ages read and balanced out the overall book well. -Ralph Both say "Will Return" on the end of their strips but I think it's sending the wrong message out to younger female readers. I won't be surprised if Ms Marvel ends up in Hulks with Champions

And where has X-Men got to this month then? I almost bought last month's again today by accident.
Or is my local Smiths now just deliberately withholding issues of magazines I'd like to buy for a laugh.
