Gays & Straights Agree: X-Men From the Ashes Sucks

Marvel Comics has done the unthinkable: they’ve brought the entire X-Men fanbase together... to agree that From the Ashes is awful.

From die-hard Claremont readers to modern slashfic shippers, everyone sees it — this isn’t a bold new beginning, it’s a creatively bankrupt relaunch aimed at no one. Wes and Dok break down exactly how Tom Brevoort and company managed to alienate every faction of the fanbase with this uninspired mess of a reboot.

Gay, straight, old-school, new — if you care about the X-Men, you probably hate this. Let’s talk about why.
