It wasn't great. But that Thor note was very instrumental to his arc and then War of the Realms.I've read Original Sin within the last year and do not remember anything about it other than Thor losing his hammer and something with the Watcher.
the event driven run at marvel is legendary to me. All my favorite villains are involved and it's the precursor to marvel goin more sci fi. Nice lil bookshelf for the mancave. I gotta folding chair on the floor so I can veg out and read.Looking at @Mowgli ‘s setup got me thinking of trying it out in the future. I have too many boxes.
I have have siegeI'm interesed in What the prelude and tie-ins are. Because you could consider the whole "Time runs out" story as a prelude and a lot of Battleworld books as tie ins Though "Siege" was the most important one, imo.
Not enough pouchesRob Liefeld returns to X-Force in 30th Anniversary special
On this day 30 years ago, X-FORCE #1 debuted and took the comic book industry by storm! Created by Rob Liefeld, X-FORCE #1 was a blockbuster success, selling over 5 million copies to become one of the best-selling single issues in Marvel Comics history.
Commemorating the anniversary of this groundbreaking issue, Rob Liefeld will return to the X-Force saga this November with a new chapter in X-FORCE: KILLSHOT!
The special one-shot will feature an explosive adventure starring Cable and his mighty militant mutant squad, taking readers back to the beloved '90s heyday of the X-Men franchise. Cable and his counterparts will assemble five separate X-Force squadrons – from various points in time – to converge on Asteroid S for an all-out assault to defeat Stryfe once and for all.
“X-FORCE was a huge gamble that paid off big for Marvel, paid off big for retailers and it changed my life forever.” Liefeld states, reflecting on the impact and legacy of the title. “I’m thrilled and honored to share KILLSHOT with everyone. Thirty years in the making, I intend to make every page a huge kick for fans new and old.”

His art is still horrendous.
Liefeld without Louise Simonson or Fabian Nicieza to actually write the book is guaranteed to be awful trash.
It's also wild that Marvel would hire Liefeld considering he has been publicly shytting on their books (especially the new X-Men stuff once Hickman took over).

AIPT: OK, as we wrap up, let’s try to resolve two issues of great concern for fans of Jonathan Hickman’s X-Men era. X-Fan My mutant power is spell check asked, with the Hellfire Gala ending this week and Inferno on the horizon, where are we in the grand scheme of this mutant epic? The first act? The second? Neither?
Jordan: You know, I think the answer is that those terms are obsolete at this point, that we’ve moved past that idea so far that we’re not really charting it on that map.
AIPT: Yeah, I see a lot of people bring this up and I assume Jonathan mentioned the acts initially?
Jordan: For sure. What it is is that Jonathan came in with plans. Jonathan came in with plans like he always does, but working with everybody changed his plans and they have changed to a degree that trying to apply his original act structure to it — it doesn’t work. That’s not the structure we’re following right now. It’s a new one and it’s one that he likes better. So the answer is, we’re not in an act…
AIPT: The answer is don’t worry about it.
Jordan: We’re in X-Men for all time, forever, eternally.
AIPT: And then X-Fans Miguel2004, Griffin and AdamTheUncaring are all concerned that Jonathan Hickman’s time with the X-Men is ending after Inferno. Should these X-Fans keep worrying or should they relax?
Jordan: They should relax, but you know, you’ll see. The answer is you’ll see where we are and big things are going to happen in Inferno in more ways than one. And you’ll get more information about Inferno pretty soon — relatively soon — before it comes out for sure. But don’t worry. We do have a lot of stuff mapped out. We do have a lot of plans that Jonathan has been working on with everybody and yeah, you’ll see. And you’ll find out more very soon.
Welp, thanks to X-Factor #10 (final issue of the series btw) we know who Magneto is going to be on trial for killing.
How fukking predictable from the moment she showed up
