Some of this stuff is just so silly. I think that's why so many of us just don't like the X-Men. Some of the best characters in the MCU, but everytime I try to get back into them I'm just astounded at the poor writing and the silly direction they're being taken in.

It's too bad, really.

They showed a pencil of a future WatXM issue and Evan is still Evan and not Apoc

@dwaynejohnsonsfromundahcheesepanini

That's quite a name.

what the hell! i thought daken was dead?!
longbowhunter - 8/28/2012, 7:16 AM
Off beat, yeah but silly, hardly. There is a reason UXF has been one of Marvel top books for the last couple of years. Setting up Evan as the new Apocalypse doesnt come as a shock to anyone who's been on this title from the word go. I'm incredibly excited to see how this all ends.
kirynthemighty - 8/28/2012, 7:18 AM
have any of you been reading remender's x-force? its by far the best comic out right now. you guys are freakin delusional. Now some of the other X books I totally agree with you, but definitely not this book. If you haven't read this than you have no idea whats going on and you shouldn't comment on what you don't know.
imnotwearinghockeypants - 8/28/2012, 7:26 AM
How do they keep this ridiculous continuity straight? What the hell is going on here?
Bark4Soul - 8/28/2012, 7:34 AM
The problem in the X-Men universe is that they are all overly "revive" happy, they kill someone and under a year they are back like nothing happened. I think every member of the X-Men has died at LEAST once. Same with the villains. Same thing in the Avengers except it's always the Avengers fighting each other, that shit is getting old too.

Grimfoe- My thoughts exactly bud. I miss the days when X-Men comics were good.

And what is with the art? Why can't Marvel hire a good artist for a change?
def28 - 8/28/2012, 7:42 AM
That panel is a dream sequence or Shadow King in Evans head. As others have said its one of the best current comics out there and without a doubt the best X book in a very long time.
JustDame - 8/28/2012, 7:49 AM
You guys don't like uncanny xforce? Whaaaaaaa..? :/
SageMode - 8/28/2012, 7:51 AM
That pic of Apocalypse is extremely creepy........
marvel72 - 8/28/2012, 7:54 AM
uncanny x-force is the best x-title,best marvel book & the best comic from either of the big two.

if you haven't read issues 1-30 you're missing out big time,x-force killed apocalypse as a child knowing what he becomes in the future but in a secret lab fantomex was growing his own en sabah nuir.

when archangel became dark angel heir to apocalypse,he went into battle against a young en sabah nuir aka genesis.

fantomex believes if he leads genesis down the right path he could aid mutantkind not hinder it,but there is a new brotherhood of evil forming & they want to get their hands on their very own apocalypse.

inbetween the those stories i've mentioned,we've had deathlok nation,age of apocalypse & otherworld.

yeah definetly the coolest shit in comics at the moment.
skidz - 8/28/2012, 7:56 AM
I like the direction they've gone with Evan and Fantomex. Evan could easily be written off a just another Apocalypse knockoff (Like Stryfe is to Cable), but they gave him a completely different personality.
Bark4Soul - 8/28/2012, 7:56 AM
Doesn't change what I said above...Marvel loves reviving people left & right, especially the X-Men
ATrueHero1987 - 8/28/2012, 8:00 AM
I'm surprised at some of these comments from some of y'all. Based on what everyone else says about Uncanny X-Force it's one of the best x-titles(and one of the best marvel titles) out right now. This is the first time I've seen negative comments about UXF.
Mrsinister - 8/28/2012, 8:01 AM
Best comic out right now
LAWLZY96 - 8/28/2012, 8:10 AM
why are people complaining? this book is incredible
skidz - 8/28/2012, 8:10 AM
Bark4Soul: How often do characters in comics actually 'die'? This is not a new concept. And considering how many people Xforce hacks to death, they'd run out of badguys if none of them came back.
enemyisyou - 8/28/2012, 8:34 AM
Jean Grey's stayed dead for a pretty long time (2004/2005??). They're bringing the character back in the comics, but not in a "back-from-the-dead" kind of fashion. Just sayin'...
kirynthemighty - 8/28/2012, 8:40 AM
Remender I think personally is one of the best writers that Marvel has. Aaron was up there, but I think he has to have a certain kind of book to be awesome, for instance his Ghost rider run was amazing. I read these comics and I am actually taken back...from a comic! Its great stuff and if you haven't read this from the beginning you are missing out. I personally had remender sign everything I had from this run plus my HC. He is a cool as guy on top of being a bad ass writer. Read this now or you'll regret it. :)

PS. After these new Deadpool guys end up making more of a laughing stock of the comic than it already is I hope they give Remender the reins and show them what a real Deadpool book should look like. Funny distorted personality but just a genuine bad ass, not Whiley Coyote in a ninja outfit.

Rant over
OtakuPapi - 8/28/2012, 8:46 AM
In Daken Dark Wolverine...Daken died explain to me how he is back? Not to mention his healing factor was gone! I read every book i want this explained asap
OtakuPapi - 8/28/2012, 8:51 AM
btw way its funny to read comments of people that definitely don't read the comics. So out of touch with the current Mcu,but so judgmental
figuresmaniac - 8/28/2012, 9:23 AM
One of the best, fact
RSDhillon - 8/28/2012, 9:36 AM
I liked that Kid Apocalypse is a Superman spoof/homage.
Unless I'm thinking of someone else.
kirynthemighty - 8/28/2012, 9:52 AM
Hes designed off of his father, Gladiator...which is Superman with a mohawk and cooler personality. :P
kirynthemighty - 8/28/2012, 9:53 AM
I meant Kid Gladiator is. Kid Apocolypse is not, his name is Genesis.
jimpinto24 - 8/28/2012, 10:23 AM
Uncanny X-Force #307 is another must have comic!
ATrueHero1987 - 8/28/2012, 10:37 AM
I would love to see Apocalypse in a movie one day.
astromerc - 8/28/2012, 10:56 AM
Okay you sold me I am going to buy the TPB's from 1-30 . What other #'s should I read to get me caught back up? I'm serious gimme a list! I want to believe in Marvel again!
ATrueHero1987 - 8/28/2012, 1:41 PM
X-Force is still kept a secret from The Avengers(and the other X-Men), right?
Luminus - 8/28/2012, 1:59 PM
@marvel72: If X-Force killed Apocalypse as a child, doesn't that undo every Apocalypse story ever written, including Cable?
jasonicus - 8/28/2012, 2:13 PM
That drawing of Apocalypse in the final panel is terrible.
Luminus - 8/28/2012, 2:34 PM
@Stigmartyr: is that directed at my comment, because if it is, that makes absolutely no sense.
Luminus - 8/28/2012, 2:37 PM
Nevermind. I thought they killed Apocalypse as a child in the past, not the present.
nowtheresaBATman - 8/28/2012, 7:26 PM
that's not Apocalypse.

oh how I miss the 90's.
ThePowerCosmic - 8/28/2012, 8:38 PM
Wow! Good call Apocalypse does look like Panthro.
