X-Men Day? Again? Not that I'm complaining


Apparently Marvel is declaring today X-Men Day... again.
I think about 7 months ago (when issue 1 came out) it was X-Men day.
Today issue #7 comes out, so yeah, its X-Men Day again
While its odd to celebrate a seventh issue, they are promoting the fact that Spider-Man is joining up with the group. I also think they're changing the line up of this team. Which is odd, since I don't think of this X-Men book as a particular team book.

X-Men Legacy has: Rogue, Magneto, Hope, and a bunch of new people. Not a lot of the main X-cast.

X-Force has Wolverine, Psylcoke, Arcangel, Deadpool, and Fantomex

UnCanny X-Men has Emma Frost, Cyclops, Wolverine, Kitty Pryde, Colossus and the doctor team

Astonishing X-Men which doesn't seem to need to follow continuity is Cyclops, Emma, Beast, Wolverine, Storm and Armor

There are so many X characters missing from the teams its crazy.

Where's Iceman? Gambit is hanging out with X-23
Here's the Wikipedia line up, we are missing so so many people, Cyclops needs to get his butt in gear and start putting some schedules of teams together, and enough of these new guys like Sanchez or Sancho, whatever the big rock kids name is, come on!

Anyway, Happy X-Men Day.
