Uncanny X-Force (Marvel NOW!)

review 1: Given he's basically Danger: Diabolik with superpowers, I've always liked Fantomex. But the one way to make him even better is to split him into multiple components, two of whom are shagging but still miss their ex, and so embark on a madcap ninja caper to get her back. Of course, she's embroiled in another mess involving a psychic demon bear, a teleporting drug dealer and a drunk Canadian... This is less a superteam book than a story about an assortment of profoundly odd and frequently damaged characters trying to manage the chaos left in their wake - but then, that's more Sam Humphries' area of expertise anyway. For that most baffling of projects, a second X-Force book, this is better than it has any right to be.
review 2: Sam Humphries' Uncanny X-Force cente... morers on Betsy Braddock, the purple-haired telepathic ninja assassin who goes by the codename Psylocke. Storm, Puck, Bishop, Spiral, and all three Fantomex feature heavily, as well. The plot was pretty straightforward and not altogether original, but I just love these characters - particularly Psylocke and Storm. Humphries seems to have a pretty good handle on Psylocke, especially. less
