The classic New Mutants is yet another great inspiration for Masks shenanigans. Warlock the Outsider (or maybe Newborn), Rahne the Transformed, Doug the Joined/Beacon, Amara the Nova (or maybe Outsider), Sunspot the Star (or maybe Bull), Cannonball the Bull … all good stuff, with plenty of soap opera.
As long as nobody tries to get our team into common uniforms …

So is anything from the Liefeld era or later worthwhile or should I just read the earlier stuff? That first panel is great, I can see “GOD being a teenager is rough” on half the faces.

New Mutants is a mixed bag. The early stuff is pretty solid, but it’s Chris Claremont, so it goes on particular melodramatic / cute-tastic / obsessive jags at unpredictable times. Liefeld amps up the 90s costumes (and the big explosions and big guns), introduces Cable, and feels very Image-like (for obvious reasons); it loses, though, from my recollection, a lot of the “teens” feel (except as a weird gun-punk Teen Rebels vibe).

I was a fan of volume 2 (which eventually became the New X-Men somewhere around 2010) but that’s probably because it was my first X-Men book more than the quality of the stories–though the kids going to Limbo to resurrect Magick was a fun little adventure.
