The lettering in these panels is genuinely, I think intentionally, overwhelming. The three different balloon and font styles, but three discrete speakers in a single panel, two of them unattributed. It all works to put us in the same position as Jean.pic.twitter.com/7WoLgjhetI

Similarly, I really like the final balloon here. It’s a simple trick, but having to squint (or, in my case, zoom in) to see what it says makes you a more active participant.pic.twitter.com/A8yJRi7RTB

This is more or less my first experience of Nature Girl, but … based on this one issue, she seems great?pic.twitter.com/Sux6E8iZmR

The key rule of X-Man’s world is: no relationships. The prologue one shot last week went hard on the romance angle of this, but it’s actually more affecting to see how it stops them from forming a family.pic.twitter.com/AaU2kCh7I7

There’s something inherently wrong about seeing the X-Mansion, a centre for this community that has been the target of so many supervillains' schemes, just... replaced, with these individual single-person homes.pic.twitter.com/nNLasOlN42

2. X-Man sez: No more sexual reproduction! Which ties into the part of the mutant concept that’s about evolution, and sets up a nice contrast with, say, the natural selection obsession of Apocalypse (who is playing the freedom fighter role here).pic.twitter.com/30JmEk2J2U
