I'm hard-pressed to go on a tirade about enduring the franchise that had Claremont pee circles around the X-men, but it's taxing and I can only use so many swear words. But the minute i read Fraction's first issue in the run, it was like he took a knife to the turkey and gave me the juiciest part of the bird; the slice I've been waiting for all my life.
Case in point: Uncanny X-men 512. Bearing in mind that it's practically a filler issue, what with the looming Dark Avengers/X-men Crossover, it's one of the best issues I've read in a long time.
Proof, you say? How about I give you three:
1.An H.G. Wells Sentinel
2. Or a deconstructed laser cannon from a turn-of-the-century car.
3. Dr. Nemesis going back in time to deliver his infant self.
If you don't find that awesome, then you're doo-doo head who hates fun.
