THis is weird - as soon as you get into comics I didn;t read as a kid I go "my gad these are terrible!" whereas before it was all "awww, it;s soo sad" :)
Did the writers actually KNOW they were being so slashy by this stage?? (WE're past Claremont here, right?)

It's worth doing Morrison for his White Queen she is a-MAZ-ingly sarky :)
