Does anyone read the current versions of Uncanny X-men, or X-men? Which do you prefer, and why?

I read both. X-Men is pretty good, but Uncanny is one of my favorite books right now. Love what they are doing with Cyclops and the new team. I think the first 10 or so issues are available in TPB.

Wolverine and the X-Men, on the other hand, is almost unreadable.

I went to a comic book store today, and bought a book for the first time in 20 yrs. Was talking with the guy and asked him which of those two was more popular/better reviews, and he said X-men without hesitating.. So I picked up the first few issues of that. Haven't had time to read them yet though. I guess i should probably look into Uncanny X-men too. Do you have any trouble keeping storylines straight when reading both? Do you have a subscription, or do you go to a shop each month?

They're mostly self-contained storylines that are about different teams/characters, so it's not hard to keep them straight.

The newest 'X-Men' run is about an all-female squad of the mainstream X-Men who are now led by Wolverine. Some members are Psylocke, Storm, Rachel Grey, and Jubilee. Uncanny is about a militant splinter cell that is run by Cyclops, and has people like White Queen, Magneto, and Magik.

A loose analogy would be that Wolverine is the new Xavier and Cyclops is the new Magneto, if that makes sense.

I have a local shop I usually go to for my can't-miss titles, but other stuff I try to wait until an collection or an omnibus comes out.

They would turn him inside out.

Superman's as strong as they come, but if he fights somebody who can create a black hole with their mind, then there's only so much you can do.

Any superhero with super physical powers will lose to anybody who can simply make anything happen with their mind.

I remember reading an issue where Zeus went to war against Hulk. Hulk lost soundly -- you simply can't beat somebody who controls reality.

For that reason alone, there are a ton of entities in the Marvel universe who can beat Superman.

As for earth-bound characters, the number falls dramatically because few earth bound characters have that ability.

Physically, against earth characters, only the Sentry really has a shot at beating Superman, which he most certainly could provided he keeps his psyche together. Hulk would put up a damn good fight, as would Hyperion. But that's it.

I have sold comics for years, so I am fairly good at grading. Only one came back significantly less than what I expected, and I think I damaged it putting it in the bag after getting Scott Snyder's signature.

The books are gone (unless you pay for Fast Track which is $10 a book) around 4-5 months. If you FT the book, it'll be around 2 months. Each book (modern only) will cost around $40 +/- WITH the Fast Track service.

Feel free to PM me if you want more info.

Can someone explain to me how flight is supposed to work?

Like, Superman. Has it ever been explained how he flies?

Is it all mind control?
