Uncanny X-men #4

Really enjoying it so far.

The art isn't great. I can't help but feel like it would be so much better with a different artist. The book is still really good, though.

My second complaint is that issues seem really short. I guess this is just a problem I have with modern comics on the whole, though.

@john_valentine: Ken Lashley's art looks fantastic in the previews for the upcoming issues. I just hope he stays on after Apocalypse Wars.

I agree about the pacing. Everything is so decompressed.

Yeah, there seems to be few comics out today that takes over five minutes to read.

Great so far. Land has not been that bad, but I'm sure the book would be more popular if he was not on it.

Yeah, it looks really good actually.

It's a shame, but I'd rather have shorter and sweeter than longer and lower quality.

He's not awful, he's just not that great. And it's a shame as I feel like it brings down the quality of the book overall.

I mean more people would be reading it if he was not on it. Some people seem to be refusing to buy it simply because it has Land's name on it.

Land is tolerable which is an achievement from him, but Lashley's sketches for Uncanny are friggin lovely. Can't wait to see him doing Apocalypse Wars... speaking of which, we have no clue what is there for us.

As for the story, Bunn continues to touch the untouchable with Xorn and I fear it may not end well lol

Agree with everything you've said on the matter.

Even BKV, whose writing I adore, reads very short month-to-month. I'm glad the story cuts to the chase, but I constantly wonder if I should just trade wait everything.
