Well, let's see what's in the bag...

X-Men:	A very interesting postscript to the story.  A *lot* of character
	development for Storm, and Peter finds out about Illyana's, umm
	talents. So, Jean Grey was Rachel's mother....Did anyone notice,
	that in the 'flash-forward' (our time), that Amanda appeared to
	be pregnant?  Or was that just Romita's art?  I take it that
	Marvel has just decided that the story wherein Amanda tried to
	become Dr Strange's apprentice, and it was revealed that she
	and her mother were actually 'posessed' by the wand of Margali,
	is to be ignored, or something.
	
Beauty/
Beast:	ARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHH! (okay?)

TNTT
#49:	Is Wally going to spend the next ten years or so busily dying?
	He is currently appearing in the 'one year from now' version
	of the mag.  Looks like Fran may be up to something interesting.
	Is it my imagination, or do the characters look a little 'scrawny'?
	Nice Infantino art for the mid-section.
	
Flash:	The *TRIAL*, finally. I hope this doesn't last as long as the preamble.        Why has DC decided to make the Flash the whipping boy?  He always had
	one of the more upbeat books.  Now it's like reading a soap opera.
	

Did anyone notice the blurb in the DC plug-zine for the JSA mini-series next
month?	And Dr Fate? Now all they have to do is bring the Spectre back, and
I will be very, very happy.  The Aparo stuff from a few back (oh could it
actually be ten years?) had a perverse charm to it.  Gangsters being eaten
by huge ducks, murderers being turned into wood, and being run through
jigsaws: great fun.
