YMMV / Age of X-Man

• Rescued from the Scrappy Heap:
  • Under Leah Williams’ pen, Blob went from a fairly one note fat joke brute to a beloved caring bookish Big Beautiful Man.
  • Many of the premises of the series seem to be this in the Krakoan era, to the point where Age of X-Man almost seems like a mixture of a Poorly Disguised Pilot to the Krakoan era and what it might have been reacting against (e.g. the Free-Love Future in response to the no relationships rule).
• Spiritual Successor: Its structure and format and the fact that X-Man is the cause makes it one to Age of Apocalypse. That it's an alternate-world story spinning out of a "Disassembled" story makes it one to House of M.
