Generation X
However, it says something that is in fact another comic featuring a classic Gen X cameo (X-Men: Blue #7 features Mondo, who I was pretty certain was dead, right?) that actually causes more excitement from the part of my heart that holds Generation X so very dear, and not the new Generation X book itself.

X-Men Gold
[rwp-review-recap id="0"] X-Men Gold #7 is the comic series' first Secret Empire tie-in Thankfully, it avoids all the troubling and perhaps negative aspects of the event it's tied to by locking itself in the New York/Manhattan location that is of course in the event trapped in the Darkforce Dimension.
