last I checked both of Fairchild's daughters (Fairchild and Roxy) were still around, Lynch's son was still around, Changs son was, as was sarah rainmaker. Now Lynch and Fairchild themselves had bit the big one.

At the end of Captain Atom's latest mini series, they pressed the big restart button(literally...was fucking hilarious how they tried to go "No, it's not a shiny red button")
So literally they are restarting Wildstorm completely. Whether they keep any history is completely up to the perogative of the writer.

I remember a big storyline leading up to Anna's evil "sisters" and this giant gen-active bomb that caught the entire team unawares...Jason von Evil wrote:Gen13 died?
The last two issues were a time-accelerated fantasy telepathically shared by the team (or at least, Fairchild thought it was) where they had the best day of their lives...
It was very sad, even with the silliness that comic got into.
Ceci n'est pas une signature.
I was never planning on getting this comic. I read the small thing they did on Free comic book day with it and while i didnt think it was rubbish it didnt even cross my mind to start collecting it.
This does of course change that. Iam now fully intent on getting it just because Joss is attached. Hell joss is the reason i started reading comics in the first place it was his (painfully delay-ridden) Fray book that got me hooked.

#25 came out today, starting Whedon's run. Has anyone read it yet?
I liked it a lot, really. He definately seems to understand the characters, which is good. I like Astonishing X-Men but some of the x-men seemed to act a little out of character at times in that, so I was a bit worried. Turned out to be nothing I actually liked Xavin in this issue as well, which is a first. Usually s/he is just irritating.
I'm sort of wondering how the bejeezus they got away from Iron Man and his cronies at the end of the last issue. There's a teeny tiny bit of confusion there.
Also, The Punisher showing up at the end was a total WTF. And that big ol' angel monster thing. I never got round to reading the first Runaways series, so is that something from there, or is it entirely new?

I probably won't get there until tomorrow, but I can answer some things
And that's all I can answer.
They just did, it's sort of explained in the "Runaways Saga" issue.Manus Celer Dei wrote:I'm sort of wondering how the bejeezus they got away from Iron Man and his cronies at the end of the last issue. There's a teeny tiny bit of confusion there.

Reviewing movies is a lot like Paleontology: The Evidence is there...but no one seems to agree upon it.

It's a New guy. Never saw him before in anything else, so he may be a new villain.Manus Celer Dei wrote:Also, The Punisher showing up at the end was a total WTF. And that big ol' angel monster thing.

I finally read it today, and I can't help but wonder if the Punisher will try and kill Molly.
