Prefer Jed Mackay’s X-Men series to Simone’s Uncanny
I’m catching up with X-Men after dropping off for a while. I’m loving Mackay’s X-Men run, love the art by Ryan Stegman and Netho Diaz (these 2 pages by Diaz in issue 10 knocked me out). I’ve read some of the newest X-men as well going into DNX, which I also like. However, as much as I loved Gail Simone’s Birds of Prey and Secret Six, I can’t get into her Uncanny run. Even despite her including guest appearances by 1970s horror characters, who I love. Why is that? Is it the bayou setting, the new mutants who don’t seem interesting, or both? Jubilee is one of my favorite characters, Monet just showed up. If more attention were given to them, I might be more into it. For those folks who like the current Uncanny series, what do you like about it?
