The more I think about these new developments, the more I think that, while many of the characters are different, Marvel has effectively hit their reset button and sent them back to the '60s status quo.

Don't forget the '70s. Bendis won't let us. Spider-Woman, Ms. Marvel, Power Man, Moon Knight, etc. All in all I think this series was a success. I'm not a Bendis superhero fan and I dug it. I like the less number of mutants.

First a mutant massacre, then a mutant plague, then this ... marvel does a culling of the mutant population every once in awhile as a regular "event" just to throw some secondary characters as fodder for the grinder and shock us.

Well they do it as an "event" but I think it's because writers get out of control. During the Mutant Massacre there was already too many mutants. There has to be stronger editorialship that doesn't let it get out of control. I mean whenever I read an X title there was atleast 2 to 7 new mutants popping up. ohwell I'm glad about the little number of mutants...except for one guy...i'm very sad about losing his powers.

Other than Olivier's art -- which was OK, but not his best -- this whole series was a complete waste. And the one tie-in I read, Uncanny X-Men, was muddled and had an absolutely wretched conclusion.
Other than random minis like Power Pack and New Warriors, I think I'm swearing off Marvel after this...

I pray, pray, pray that folk like Pietro, Wanda and Lorna see the error of their ways and turn back to the "angels" they once were...Only Magneto is better suited for "evildom", his "goody-goody" act during the Claremont-Romita-Green run didn't fool me one bit
