The X-Men are a superhero team of mutants founded by Professor Charles Xavier. They are dedicated to helping fellow mutants and sworn to protect a world that fears and hates them.
We just got another new X-Men series, Generation Hope is just around the corner, and the New X-Men are going to feature in X-Men: Legacy... No more new titles.
Don't get me wrong, I'd rather see the New X-Men than the new X-Men or generation Hope... but I can't stand Marvel ripping off it's fans with endless titles.
They wont make another cause young x-men was a flop. I miss having a book that was just about the kids, not Rogue drama with a hint of teenagers. Legacy has become a TV Drama, "A young counselor (Rogue) learns to adjust to her new way of life (touching) while dealing with her long time love (Remy) and the reappearance of her love long ago (Erik)."
Legacy and Generation Hope already have most of the x-kids (that are worth anything) in them. Astonishing has Armor and random appearances by other kids. It would be nice if the New Mutants added someone like Surge to their team.

I love seeing more titles, but my wallet can't handle anymore.
" There is only one New X-Men, and it is the best book Marvel has ever published. MAGNETO WAS XORN, DEAL WITH IT, PEOPLE! (gets dragged off by orderlies) It's the truth! They just want you to forget! "
I went back and got the trades for New X-men after enjoying Kyle and Yost's X-Force relaunch.
Gotta say, it was a real letdown. The Roger Cruz-ish artwork made all the characters look the same, some of the dialogue was pretty irritating or stilted, and it overall was extremely, monotonously depressing for a book about kids. I'm aware the mutant's world is not a happy one but this was too much.
Also, Kyle and Yost do some great things with the core X-men characters but their Emma Frost is awful. Always over-the-top bitchy and blatantly manipulative to the point where it conflicted with her portrayal in the other X-books.
So, I vote "No" and am more looking forward to Gillen's Generation Hope.

I was kidding :) Though I do love some of the newer mutants, particularly X-23, Hellion and Elixir. "
Sorry, sometimes it's just so hard to tell on the internet. I loved both series, although the Morrison one was seriously hampered for me by what some people like to refer to as Frank Quitely's "art".
