THE BOOK OF EXODUS!

Bennet du Paris was born in the 12th century. Exodus marched forth with a sword in his hand and a shield in his heart to protect what he believes. It's now the 21st century. What's changed? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. and the Eternals who dared attack Krakoa are going to discover what that means.

Exodus spotlight issue in July

Finally! Exodus and Selene have both been criminally underused during this Krakoa era. Glad to see both getting some spotlight now.

I've been saying from the onset that the villains' adjustment to the new status quo has the most story telling potential (either for redemption or fukkery). Just look at Hellions.

Amazing Spiderman by Zeb was aight. I didn't read anything from the Spencer run so I ain't as upset as others by the MJ stuff. The spoilers for the Hellfire Gala though... :mjlol:

Sabertooth was the best issue from the book so far, story is taking shape right in time for "chapter 1" to finish. I hope Lavalle gets to write the other two arcs he has in mind.

Knights of X was Tini Howard's best book in a long ass time. Glad someone told her using narration boxes would help her out with her tendency of not explaining anything and making her books confusing as fukk. Ever since she dedicated her stuff to Otherworld, her stuff has gotten better. It still a book that you can totally skip but it looks like it's gonna be fun to read.

Exodus spotlight issue in July

Every book has been delayed significantly due to shipping issues across the board. We are getting Immortal X-Men #2 in May, so unless they start shipping twice a month in June, issue #5 ain't coming out in July.

There are certain artists that do and have done great work but if I see their names on a book I'm like :unimpressed: because their styles are too dated in today's era:

John Romita Jr.
Doug Manke
Scott Kolins
Howard Porter
Brett Booth
Brad Walker
Ethan Van Sciver :scust::trash:

I still like Doug Manhke's work but I agree with the rest. Especially Booth who is still doing that early 1990s Image style.
