uncanny x-men 511 and 512
• Minotaur didn't have Uncanny #511 so I had to download it and omg Land's art in his part of the book is ugly. Even beyond the annoyance of the extreme photo-referencing, a lot of the panels are flat out ugly. I do like the writing, though, especially the intro captions. I remember CBR forums hated this issue but I like the way Fraction is writing the team and just hate Land's art on UXM. The Dodson pages were nice, though, and I really love Beast in that last scene of the issue.

#512, though? Flat out awesome all round. Gorgeous art, awesome story, and omg steampunk sentinel! Best ever. I may have to dl it so I can make a desktop wallpaper out of the pretty.

• Panicking about flat inspection on Saturday. I suck at cleaning so it'll be a hard slog on Thursday & Friday nights getting it up to scratch. Understandably, they are pissed because the carpet in the hall had to be steam cleaned after the plumber came through on the weekend and that is expensive.
