So, I never wanted to read a current x-men comic. Their continuity is all over the place, they have like five books going on at the same time, and in my mind it's just a mess. But, the other reason why I didn't read it was because of Brian Michael Bendis was the writer, and I usually hear nothing but bad things from him. I was interested in how bad all new x-men really was, and to my surprise I liked it. No, wait, I loved it! It does a great job of filling you in on key moments without really going into the past, the dynamics are really interesting, and the art is actually not that bad.

I really like the aspect of the younger generation dealing with the older generation. This series also sets up a few other x-books. For the most part I haven't found that much to hate on the x-men. Each character is interesting and has a fair amount of screen time. Although, there are two things I don't like about this:

1. Sometimes, once in a while, the writing dips and it either feels awkward or just a bit out of character.

2. Jean Grey. Oh my stars and garters. I hate Jean so ********* much! She started out alright, but when her powers came in it was like a nightmare! She's switched from being poor and innocent to a dictator God. She literally has no boundaries and will read everyone's mind and even control them so that they'd do what she wanted them to do, and then apologies to everyone saying it's not her fault. **** that! She promises not to do it and then she breaks it at least three times at a time, and it starts all over again. I hope this will go away, but seeing what she did to iceman in the latest comics controversy, I'm stunned that she's still a *****.
