Honestly, though, and in their defence, I do believe the creative teams I've been seeing on UXM are mildly competent. They just all insist on making alienating choices - so much so, I suspect it's more executive meddling than artistic choice.

'cept the teeth thing.
Eeeeh, I see very, very few redeeming qualities in anything Fraction or Land have done on the title, I wouldn't apply the competence label to any part of their run. Whilce Portacio, on the other hand (Dr. Teeth as it were) is actually a really great artist, but he's had a lot of health problems that have affected the quality of his work, so while I really don't like his stuff on UXM, it's definitely not as grating as Land's traced porn stars or Fraction's ridiculous out-of-character dialogue. As for Fraction's new co-writer Gillen, I have liked the other stuff of his that I've read, so time will tell to see if the writing improves any.
