Era #9, Part 14: Generation X #59-62

Grade: C

Jay Faeber's run ends with some more run-of-the-mill stories. We finally get some answers about Mondo's relationship with Black Tom and Juggernaut, but I am not sure I could explain it accurately. Monet left the team to attend a private boarding school in the Swiss Alps -- run by a vampire.

This is another case in which it is probably a good thing that I am a neurotic completionist. I would have dropped this title, but I really liked the characters and hoped that things would get better. It does, but not here.

[3-Stars] Generation X #59 - "Artie & Leech's Day Off" It is a field trip to the Big Apple that goes a little awry when Artie and Leech sneak away to find their friend Franklin Richards.

[3-Stars] Generation X #60 - "Christmas Fear" Cordelia Frost crashes Christmas with Mondo hot on her trail.

[3-Stars] Generation X #61 - "Christmas Fear Part Two" Generation X versus Mondo, Black Tom Cassidy and the Juggernaut.

[2-Stars] Generation X #62 - "Prey" It is a Monet solo story as she looks for ways to eliminate a vampire that preys on the boarding school students. This is more Buffy without the fun dialog or character development.
