All-New X-Men, Vol. 2: Here to Stay by Brian Michael Bendis

4.0

Volume 2 of All New X-Men picks up right where volume 1 left off with the original X-Men team trying to adjust to living in the present (their future), and attempting to come to terms with what their future lives become.

I’m really loving these X-men comic books! The banter between the characters is amazing. Young Bobby and older Bobby are both hilarious and I absolutely love Kitty Pride. She continues to be my favorite X-Men. I love how she has taken on a leadership role and how she takes her job of training the X-men from the past very seriously. I love how she shuts young Bobby up by kicking his ass during training. I also love how she tells Jean to stop abusing her powers by listening in on people’s thoughts without permission. I still continue to dislike Jean Grey. She has never been a character I've liked all that much and I don’t see that changing any time soon, although I will say that she hasn't annoyed me too much in this series.

I also seriously love Wolverine and think his interactions with young Cyclops are so entertaining to read. The art in this series continues to be amazing and I can’t wait to read volume 3.
