(For reference sake: I've only seen issue #1.) Yes, it has problems, but the overall idea is not so bad. My main complaints are the continuity problems; the plot's okay. I don't exactly like the idea of a new, more-powerful-than everyone being showing up, but if we have to have that, the reactions, particularly Doom's, were okay. And along with Evelyn, I like the X-Men/Magneto interactions. Magneto is one of my favorite characters. I really like the mutual respect stuff between the X-Men and Magneto that has shown up from time to time: his "eulogy" for Phoenix, the team-up in the X-Men graphic novel, the situation in the alternate future when the Sentinels had killed off most of the superheroes and imprisoned the remaining mutants. You might be pleased to hear that, based on comments in this group, I'm col- lecting the first issues of American Flagg and may start reading it regularly. >From the (comics) desert of Nashua, NH, Marta Greenberg, Software Innovations, ittvax!decvax!sii!meg
