      It's a cool promotion. I don't know that I could use it, though, without an iPad... could I?

      Yup, you can read them on your PC screen.

      But this screen is about as un-PC as you can get...

      (Nah, seriously, it's a PC; and cool, thanks.)

      They're all in the vault that went on tour with the Blue Öyster Cult in the mythical Imaginos tour of the outer ring of the galaxy?

      They each gave a papercut to Batman in his clumsy phase?

      They all have Alpha Flight characters in them? (X-Treme X-Men v2 #1? Who? Northstar? Is that a recent series?)

      Ding ding! Winner! We had a thread on X-Treme X-Men - it's Greg Pak's series that ended recently with the events of X-Termination.

      So they changed the title from Madison Jeffries In X-Treme X-Men? Laaaame.


      Yeah, sorry, I even posted on that thread. But we have so many, especially with 'X's abounding, it's hard to keep track.

      They are all issues # 1 ?

      Berf, seems my #1 issues are no more. Can't complain for a freebie but still, it's weird that they are totally gone now.
