I've An excellent history of the New X-Men can be found in the most recent issue of Amazing Heroes (#55). The Old X-Men were covered in the previous issue. The author, R. A. Jones, makes a few slips, but gets most of it (i.e. don't rely on it for a trivia contest, but it's usually right). Ignore the last half page, where Jones goes off into his own little world and suggests Storm's love for Kitty is homosexual. There's also an interview with Bill S-word, where he generally expresses contempt for drawing the new mutants in a recognizable fashion. I'm being a little harsh, but I wish he'd go back to Moon Knight and leave the Newts in peace. He does mention Ralph Steadman, and any fan of Steadman can't be all bad. Carl ..!ctvax!uokvax!lmaher
