This series is very.... it's not very typical of superhero story in that so far it's been very focussed on characters reacting to one another and very much not on a plot revolving around fighting supervillains. Very chatty, very Bendis - but well written as such. It uses the set up of the old X-Men pretty cleverly to question the evolutions in modern comics and comics characters and the history of the X-Men and at the same time make it pretty accessible to newcomers. There are times when the characterisation are a bit shacky, but overall it pulls through. I think it's been very, very good.

Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
