"As I said in Interviews, I wanted this to have a sort of bedsit indie feel. This isn’t a floorfiller of a comic. It’s really low-key for the most part. Hell, it’s constructed like a slice-of-life comic until… well, it isn’t." -- Kieron Gillen







David gets to know one of the few co-workers at the place who's around his own age:









During the night, someone wearing Patriot's costume robs their workplace.

This is wonderful. Why the Hell isn't Gillen given more work?

he does pretty well between his Marvel series and his indie work.

I was going to say, generally he's pretty busy as is.

Throw Victor Alvarez into the mix, and the goggletasticness would only increase!

I'd be for that but him and White Tiger are going to be in the Mighty Avengers. Although would like to see him and Miss America interact.

Aw you didn't put in the bit where the ninja calls him for customer-support against Elektra.

"Ninjas. You just can't help ninjas."

Gillen just gets Prodigy so well, he should have used him more during his Uncanny X-men run

Why wasn't Prodigy on the Extinction team or the X-Club?

not the best fit for Extinction team; but would have been neat on X Club.

Wasn't sure if I was totally in love with this series even though I was interested but issues 6 and 7 sealed the deal for me. I must make a request though. MORE PRODIGY!

Which organization was he with that could be called 'mutant separatist/terrorist'? Not the X-men?

Hm, but *most* mutants were X-men, and many of them are in good standing at the moment.

I think he's just on the paranoid side... which, frankly, being a New X-man, makes a lot of sense.

I think he's a little bitter, I can see why - Cyclops and Wolverine have an argument and his quality of life goes a little haywire.

It might be more specifically that he was one of the Utopian X-Men, as opposed to one of the Scholar X-Men. It's easy to view them as separatist, and I doubt the Phoenix Five's actions really did anything to endear them to anyone.

Also, do the sides from Schism have actual names? I used Utopian and Scholar above, but never saw anything like that in the comics. People just refer to them as Wolverine's side or Cyclops's side, but they did have an actual difference beyond leadership.

Just the leaders or 'School vs Utopia,' I think.

I'm so happy Prodigy is in this, after how much he got screwed over post M-Day.

"Imagine me sending a gif of someone being fed into a cow shredder, David."

I now picture Hopeless, Yost and Kyle reading that, smacking themselves on the forehead and saying "Knew I forgot something.

Laurie Collins aka Wallflower? Dead. Then her corpse was mutilated, turned into a bio-Sentinel, and then it was vaporized. Yeah...

Having pheromone powers is a quick way to get written out of an X-Book.

If you mean Transonic? She's not even registering as background anymore. Only Oya gets screen time when it comes to the Lights.

Ah, after being very unimpressed with Ghost Box I didn't read the rest of his run, so that'd explain it.

Transonic as a matter of fact and damn. Seems like no love for the Lauries in Marvel.

If these two wind up together, then we've determined David's type: speedsters with unusual hair colors.

Yes, I know Noriko's comes from a bottle.

I like how Speed refers to rest of the YA as kids. I wonder if he does consider himself older, owing to experiencing the world so much more slowly.

I love the little touches here-- like the number of sugar packets Tommy used for his coffee.

Speedster+caffeine+sugar rush can't be a good combination.

I am just hating Brown's artwork on this.

I wanted this series to be good so much (love the Young Avengers, and Jamie is a friend from way back), but it's largely bored me to tears. Loki and Miss America Chavez are the only two characters who are jumping off the page for me. And not making me like Kate Bishop and want to see more of her in a book she appears in represents a tragic waste of resources.
