New Mutants #6, by writer Zeb Wells and artist Diogenes Neves, begins the series's Necrosha tie-in arc. In spite of my dislike for previous issues, I have given this new chapter a chance to again spark my interest in the series. I had no idea what I was in for.

Picking up after the events of issue five, the team heads to the base on Utopia where they reunite with Charles Xavier. During this suspiciously upbeat moment, however, a virus-infected Doug Ramsey (messed with by Selene) watches from the shadows outside. While I am unfamiliar with the character, I found myself—temporarily—fascinated by Ramsey as he gives the reader an interesting insight into the true meaning of the words spoken by Xavier and the others. He reads their body language and facial movements, translating them into the statements they imply. I found this to be the most interesting part of the entire issue, though it was jarring at first.

With new mutants being added to the mix, specifically Tattoo and Greymalkin to Young X-Men, here at X-Men Natiion we thought we'd remind the writers of the X-Books not to forget some of our favorite under used mutants and also remind them and you, the readers, about some great mutants that were created in the history of the X-Men Universe that we think are pretty cool.  These characters would make excellent additions to any X-Team.
