Sorry to be a complete noob but what does the "Uncanny" actually mean. I've never actually bothered to find out but I quite like the look of this.
Uncanny means "familiar, yet strange."
Remember, knowing is half the battle.
It's Freudian expression. The German word unheimlich (that can be translated with uncanny or eerie) means "familiar, yet strange, and frightening", and makes you feel uncomfortable while being attracted to something or someone.
Mina Harper's perception of (Bram Stoker's) Dracula is a very good example.
Sorry should have made myself a bit more clear, I know what the literate meaning is but whats the story with the team? What makes up the Uncanny X-Men??
