![]() ![]() The story is that Jubilee is heading back to the school with a baby she’s rescued from an orphanage and named Shogo. I guess Marvel don’t want to differentiate too far from the branding but still, I feel it’s a missed opportunity, especially as you have to explain it’s the X-Men book that’s all-female which X-Women would adequately do instantly. I don’t know, seems a little obvious maybe but it’s accurately describing the team’s makeup of only women mutants. So let’s start with the title – this is the all-female X-men team which is for some reason simply X-Men, rather than X-Women. ![]() I just don’t think you’re getting value for money with this book, not least because it’s terrible. 4! They round out the book to 5 by including a reprint of a 1989 X-Men comic by Chris Claremont and Marc Silvestri which features Jubilee’s first appearance, and pad it out further with extensive artist sketches and variant covers. In adjective-less X-Men you’re only getting 4 issues. For some of their hugely popular titles like Superior Spider-Man and All-New X-Men, Marvel have only bundled together 5 issues which is a bit cheeky but for Superior, you’re paying for quality over quantity. ![]() How many issues do you expect to find in a collected edition? For me, I’d say 6 is reasonable and anything above that is a bonus. ![]()
