Well, it is an obvious superlative that has just never been used before. Well done.

Marvel announced this yesterday, and again... it's Jeff Lemire with Humberto Ramos on art. This is a license to print quatloos.

Marvel has clearly NOT turned their back on the X-Men.

The raccoon's in charge? Of course he is. He sells the most merchandise.

But notice that The Thing has joined the Guardians, as rumored for a couple of months. As my favorite time with Ben Grimm was after the original Secret Wars when he was "Rocky Grimm, Space Ranger," I appreciate the callback and don't care about the internal politics.

I loved when Keith Giffen tried this a few years ago. Can Frank Barbiere make it work this time around?

It looks like a stronger, better-known cult-appreciated cast. Hitmonkey, Man-Thing, Werewolf by Night, Zombie Jasper Sitwell, not Zombie Dum Dum Dugan... and is that Elsa Bloodstone, aka Marvel's own version of Buffy?

I'm going to try this one, Marvel. Please don't break my heart.
