So has anyone picked up Young X-Men?

How about X-Force? So far I'm really liking X-Force, but I'm not sold on Young X-Men.

Thoughts???

I didn't follow Young X-Men before the relaunch. I picked up the first issue & based on it, will not be picking up any more (RE: Art/Story both sucked)

As for X-Force, I'm a big fan of the art, even though it suffers from gratuitous use of Wolverine (He leads X-Force while starring in two solo ongoings, Uncanny X-Men, Astonishing X-Men, & New Avengers (As well as all the Ultimate books).

Yeah, Young X-Men art is not great. On top of that, the writer doesn't really handle Blindfold very well. I'll give it #10 issues, and then make a final verdict. I'm hoping that the New Mutants will be mainstays in the title, and that might sell me on it.

As far as X-Force, that book is amazing. I hear you about Wolverine, and the fact that there's a female Wolverine in it is kind of annoying, but so far the book has been great. I'm a huge fan of Wolfsbane and Warpath, so they help me get over all of the clawed ones.

See, for me "Young X-Men" was better when it was called "The New Mutants" and later on, "Generation X".

I loves me Bachalo's art.

Yes, Generation X was amazing. I have that entire run (love Husk since I'm from the same area, it was nice to see her not be a stereotype, for the most part) and most of the run of New Mutants v 1.0 That series was great too.

So...X-Force #4 hit the shelves this week. Thoughts? I don't want to spoil anything incase you haven't picked it up yet.

I though the return of Archangel was kick ass.
