Given the thing was a rip-off of Age of the Apocalypse, but other than Xavier being dead and Wolverine suddenly remembering he&amp;#39;s this boring guy named James simply by waking up I can&amp;#39;t remember much of anything happening in the 7 issue thing. I can&amp;#39;t imagine this getting beyond the proposal stage. Plus, the ending was just a pointless magic thing that had only a few mutants left... for some reason. No explanation other than the Scarlet Witch said so. I have to be honest, that is really lazy writing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...and it got worse the next year...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for Spider-man #1. Yes, I was a big McFarlane freak and this was his big book. One page was drawn on a big huge page so it looked even bigger. The story... It looked great!&lt;br /&gt;But even though McFarlane wasn&amp;#39;t the greatest writer in the world, he did alright and had a couple good ideas in there. Unlike today, it actually was written like Peter Parker actually was. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It even teased the return of Kraven. Man, I hope they never bring that guy back. Bringing Kraven back to life would be the worst idea ever.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1817961213743889523/4035109805959904789/comments/default/2209887311414323972'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1817961213743889523/4035109805959904789/comments/default/2209887311414323972'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.comichron.com/2010/07/june-2010-flashbacks-to-past.html?showComment=1279070459656#c2209887311414323972' title=''/><author><name>alex</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07872723090714920226</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://blog.comichron.com/2010/07/june-2010-flashbacks-to-past.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1817961213743889523.post-4035109805959904789' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1817961213743889523/posts/default/4035109805959904789' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-357944839'/></entry></feed>
