Emma's? Her relationship with Scott? Maybe the death of Jean? Or the extinction of 16 million mutants? Could it be not using any characters Morrison created like the Stepford Cuckoos, Dust and Beak? The only thing retconned - as yo go re said - was the Magneto/Xorn story. And yes, it was done bad.

The only thing retconned - as yo go re said - was the Magneto/Xorn story. And yes, it was done bad.

It's been a while since I read it, but wasn't pretty much EVERYTHING from NEW X-MEN thrown out?

After that, I can't say I have much enthusiasm for the second issue. Again, I like the idea of this mag, but in practice it was pretty bland.

There were many other rules, most of them funny, but I can't remember what they were. I can't read them from the magazine, as I didn't bring it home with me. I bought it, and then immediately loaned it to a guy who was enthused that it was a magazine about comics that wasn't juvenile and wasn't trying to be too cerebral. He said he had enough of that cerebral stuff when he wrote for his Master's degree in literature. What I did see of this issue was MUCH better than the previous issue, except for the emphasis on Bendis and his Marvel posse.If I never see another picture of Bendis, that will be great. Not that I hate Bendis, I just don't want to see that head again. "Take a drink any time Batman grins or laughs maniacally."
