Last time in GXS we were about to hit Fall of the Mutants, and while we *will* read that (eventually, please bear with me), I decided to do something a little different to celebrate the release of FX's Legion show.

So sit back and enjoy the first arc of Simon Spurrier's X-Men Legacy.

>>89765291
thanks x-anon

didnt you leave your storytimes close to when Psylocke voted to kill Havok? right before the outback era?

Ill check to see if I can watch Legion in my country, I think it will be shown in Fox

Unfortunately, Tan Eng Huat's art isn't up to par with the writing, although I don't think it's *that* bad, just bland and forgettable mostly.

I honestly think this might be one of the best covers for an X-Book. Perfectly encapsulates Legion during the series as he clashes with the ideologies of more established characters.

>>89768860
Mike Del Mundo is great, and one of the best art finds of the 2010s. I've actually been considering following Waid's Avengers for his interior art.

And yeah, X-Men Legacy was the shit. Spurrier really knocked it out of the park in most every regard. Character voices, running plots, emotional beats, everything was nice and tight and worked very well.
>>
>>
>>89765291
I've been wondering this for literal years...

Who is the bottom left face on this cover? Legion, Logan, Nathan and Mags are obvious, but that one I've never been able to determine. Scott?
>>
>>89769654
Shame Del Mundo keeps getting wasted on shit writers.
>>
>>89769688
I pulled Elektra just for him, and while the plot was eh it was still very worth it.

It's a damn shame he didn't follow Si to go do bizarre british sci-fi, and become a rebirth of Milligan/McCarthy
>>
>>89769683
Probably, yeah.
>>
>>89769683
Yeah, Cyclops.

>Nathan
I'm not sure. Might be a weird pic of Xavier. It would make a lot more sense and line up the major leaders of mutants of then and now.
>>
>>89769726
...I hate you for putting that idea in my head. God fucking dammit.
>>
>>89769781
Nah, look at the shoulders and crazy veins in his neck. That's totally Cable.
>>
>>89769781
You can see the white hair, the '90s shoulderpad, and come on, the glowing left eye is Nate's schtick.

>>89769804
Seriously! These two would go so goddamn well together. It's an absolute shame that they got this close at this point, but never went and did the full partnership.

Si deserves an artist he can let loose and trust.

What's he been up to nowadays anyways? Last thing I remember was an image book, Cry Havoc.
