My X-Men

Hi Erin!  How's it going, my lovely American Princess?  You are MY girl, and I love you so much.  I suppose you are busy being the Sports Princess.  But you can't be a real nerd if you weren't into comic books for some reason at some time.  Ah comic books, the portal where undesirable and lonely male geeks get to fantasize over superheroine bodies...  That's where the purity is!  I have long since abandoned comics for my preference for real women, but I was so happy when they put out the first X-Men movie.  Since then, Fox has totally screwed up MY X-Men, even though brilliantly cast.  But now that Marvel has regained control of the X-Men (and the Fantastic Four), I'm hoping they would reboot the titles.  I would love to see the "Days of Future Past" retold properly (it was Kitty Pryde who timeshifted to her younger self, not Wolverine!)  As with many of the stories I remember from the 80's retold properly.  Now that Avengers:Endgame is over and done with, I am hoping that Marvel would restart the X-Men and the Fantastic Four, then place them in the MCU timeline to culminate in the next massive epic.  Like the Secret Wars and Secret Wars 2.

Just the ramblings of a former comic book geek...
