What are people thinking to All-New and Uncanny X-Men then?
I really like Immonen's art on All-New but I'm afraid that where it ends for me. Bendis has always been a slow plotter but niw it's just getting rediculous.

I like both books a lot. All New X-Men is the best of the two. In fact, I'm still surprised it's so good given the concept.
I was worried when I found out Bendis was taking over the X-Men books because I've never enjoyed his team books a great deal, but he's really doing a good job on them.

What Andrew said.
I was skeptical about Bendis' monthly work because I always find it ridiculously decompressed and reads much better in trade, but All-New and Uncanny have both been exceptionally well paced. I disliked the fact that Uncanny #3 and All-New #9 ended in the same place with the same cliffhanger however.
The artwork on All-New is excellent, Immonen and Marquez are both wonderful, and even Bachalo has been doing good work on Uncanny bar a few odd slip ups. I'm also a fan of Frazer Irving, so him being the other artist on Uncanny works for me.
So yeah, surprisingly good. I never thought I'd be pulling one Bendis books monthly, let alone three, if you count Guardians.

I'm going to also disagree with you Britanix. >.<
Really enjoyed All-New X-Men so far, although I haven't read the first couple of issues.
And I've only read #1 of Uncanny so far (I think), and that was decent enough. I've got the rest in the pile atm.

I also shall come down on the Pro-Bendis side. I have enjoyed All-New alot but find it has gotten better since the cast was split across two titles. I recall liking NA v1 #1-6 more but unlike New Avengers the second arc has proven equal to the first.
Not such a big fan of Uncanny on the other hand as a had mixed feeling on the writing of #1 and found Bachalo really repetitive which normally isnt my problem with him.

I agree with everyone else that's Pro-Bendis. I've been really enjoying All-New X-Men and Uncanny X-Men, although I prefer All-New on the art front, I've never been a big fan of Bachalo's style. Even though Bendis is notorious for slow plot paces, I've actually found, particularly with ANX that his plots have moved with a little bit more pace behind them than they ever had when he wrote Avengers books all those years, which surprised me.
