In the six previous books, there has apparently been enough time passed for the X-Men to fully go through prep school AND their specialized mutant power training. Ridiculous. I really wish they hadn’t just skipped forward for no apparent reason. The just lost the ability to let us watch them grow. Now, if you’re reading All-New X-Men in 2012/2013 then this little skip in time is perfect, because the X-Men from the 1960’s are pulled into 2012 by Beast. Not sure that all of those dates are accurate, with comic book time and all.
