I picked up #1 on your guys reccomendation and liked it a lot, I'm officially interested. I'll stick with the book for a bit now, although I'm debating on whether to pick up the back issues. Possibly when I get some extra cash. So far, an excellent read that left me wanting more.

And best Wrecking Crew appearance in too long to count!

I tracked down 1 and 2 from the first run... if I'd read these when they came out, I would have been a die-hard fan from the beginning. D-mn Marvel, for hiding all their gems (RUNAWAYS, SHE-HULK) amidst all their other garbage!

but didn't julie power make a mistake...she wasn't lightspeed and starstreak. her sister katie was one. i think she's on craaaaaaack.
wonder what her power is now?

Judging from the cover to #3, she's back on her original light'n'flight powers (conviently mirroring Karolina, oc..)

And, apparently, she was "Starstreak" (II) in the last PP mini.

Not getting the digests? The whole first series is out now as three digests (i.e., six issues per digest)

My comments on the new #1:

I love how the gang "schooled" The Wrecking Crew, they're one of my least favorite super-villain teams. Nico's fight with Wrecker really shows that you don't want to get on that girls bad side. [Big Grin]

I'm enjoying Excelsior and I hope Phil will finally take up the mantle of the Blue Wail that Spider-girl has teased us about.

It's awesome that the new "Hostel" at the La Brea Tar Pits Museum since I have many found memories going there.

Future-Gert (if she is the real deal) was intriguing and I hope at least one thing she mentioned comes true (Hisako joining the X-Men). I really felt for Chase there at the end.

Oh and FYI Disaster Boy, Julie was telling the truth. The Power's often share codenames with there siblings along with there powers.

Eh, I'm a monthlies kinda guy. [Wink]

I'm not having any trouble finding these for cover, so I'll probably just buy the entire first run out of the back-issue bins. But I'm picking up the digests to share. [Cool]

Yeah, but someone in the background doesn't look happy. Is this another Kitty/Lockheed?

Awesome cover! Although one wonders what's up with Old Lace with that look, unless that's a just a smile. [LOL]

What do you mean by "Is this another Kitty/Lockheed?", FerroBoy? If you're just refering to their relationships to each other, then no. Lockheed decided to join up with the X-Men because he thought they (and Kitty in particular) were fascinating. While Old Lace has yet to be shown as more then a designer pet/bodyguard raptor for Gert with a psi-link "command system". I'm not dissing Old Lace it's just currently we don't know "The Way She Works". [Wink]

A bunch of people I know think that Lockheed had more than a casual interest in Kitty. Plus, he thought he was human. Old Lace seems jealous, so I was making a link between this situation and the one with Kitty and Lockheed.

AL, come on, I know you like the Trial of Lockheed:
"...and I confess, with the youngest [Kitty], I was instantly smitten"
"In deep space we met. In that moment I knew a love truly true"

Plus the "leaving fianceé at the altar thing"

Fairly clear really [Smile]

He never thought he was human though.

Yeah he does love her but it's still friend-love, not any other kind. The way I read the whole leaving at the alter thing was basically he thought he could do more good for the universe with Kitty then just protecting his people.

Rad, "smitten" is not a word you use for friend-love. Nor is love at first sight ("we met. In that moment I knew a love truly true")

Not often perhaps, but I have heard both used (all be it rarely) for friend-love. It could be refering to just a simple crush, IE one where you don't really want to date the person, you just have a certain admiration for them.

I do admit that the humanoid Lockheed as seen in the Crosstime Caper did have romantic feelings for Kitty. That ended up annoying 616 Lockheed and made Kitty blush.
