You can probably blame Mr Law for Jude jumping from 174th to 88th place. But Logan makes an even more impressive leap from 158th to 28th place since 2000, just before the X-Men films began.

Wednesday Comics Review: Uncanny X-Men 538 and Generation Hope 8
I'm not that enamoured of SWORD either. So Uncanny X-Men #538 has that strike against it from the get go. Especially since it embeds the Breakworldians into the X-Men Universe in terms of being repeated guest stars in the future They'll probably be a big part of Schism too Please no. So bear all this in mind, I'm[...]

Uncanny X-Men 537 And Action Comics 901: Wednesday Comic Reviews
Two comics out today, both seem to be telling stories already told. Reading Uncanny X-Men #537, the silent, intangible Kitty Pryde being pursued across Utopia by Kruun of Breakworld, unable to summon the help she needs, I immediately flashbacked to another X-Men comic from almost thirty years and five hundred issues ago Uncanny X-Men #143.
