three issues in and we still haven't resolved anything except Cable and Bishop are like cockroaches - they're both pretty hard to kill. it's only in this list because of a mysterious figure bursting in on a helpless stranded Cable. it sure looks like Cyclops but he has two eyes. i swear to God, Lone Wolf and Cub wasn't this grating.

#5 - Blatant Invasion
okay, this would have worked better with Alex Ross doing the artwork. seriously. i'll forgive the gimmick of bringing back Captain America to torture Tony Stark further. but if you were going to do such a 12 issue storyline, you better make it worth our while. the Ross/Krueger team has always been successful, but i don't know if the Stephen Sadowski art is going to be worthy of the story. and yes, torturing Tony is always interesting.

#4 - Child's Play
Cyclops starts training the young X-Men how to take down their former teachers. except we still don't know why Cannonball, Sunspot, Magma and Dani have formed a "Brotherhood of Evil Mutants" (snicker). this better not be a dream. or a scam to "let them kids grow up". wait, i think that's what this is.

#3 - Generation Next
taking advantage of the cash register-busting movie, Marvel rolls out another Iron Man title (i wonder how long this'll last), and puts hot writer Matt Fraction in the driver's seat. in a tangential arc off the movie itself, Obadiah's son Ezekiel is gunning for Tony, with better tools and simpler goals: worldwide chaos and revenge. Tony might want to have a drink before this is all over.

#2 - In the Army Now
Nick Fury is back, baby! and we get more of the backstory of what he's been doing all this time. with Secret War's Daisy Johnson as his proxy, he recruits a bunch of seeming misfits to combat the Skrull infestation. is this the new Skrull Kill Krew? and i've been transported back to my DD days as Alex Maleev (Alex Maleev!) weaves another gorgeous tapestry.

#1 - Taking Names
back to being a space cop, Nova is dispatched to help evacuate a planet currently being the $5 buffet special for Galactus. he has also has to contend with an evil psychotic entity preying on the panicking citizens. to top it off, Nova wants to get Galactus' attention, but the Silver Surfer is playing the uncooperative bouncer. oboy.
