Preview of Astonishing X-Men #25

Here’s a preview of Warren Ellis’ first issue of Astonishing X-Men. If you didn’t know, the previous 24 issues had been written by Joss Whedon and had enjoyed the rabid fan base that comes with it. There’s a lot riding on these first few issues of transition, and I’d say from this preview, things look like they’re going to be A-OK. Bianchi’s pencils looks nice (although I’m not a huge fan of the colors), and it seems like Ellis is already trying to work out some of the sillier aspects of Whedon’s run (Armor Girl). The full thing will be released on July 2nd!
