While I was lukewarm at best to the opening issue of A+X, I have to say this second issue really shows me that Marvel has what it takes to make this comic not just sell, but excel. This is exactly the showcase for established and rising talent that we've been waiting for " A+X #2 is an equation that should be a no-brainer for fans of the Marvel Universe. Read Full Review

When your daily allocation of free time feels like it's ever-dwindling, praise be for comics like this. Stand-alone in nature, small in page count but big on talent, filled with riotous fun from cover to cover " a more enjoyable use of 10 minutes I think I'd be hard pressed to find. I've previously made sure to check the creators headlining each issue before putting down my $3.99, but no more. No-one's phoning in their A+X performances, and as such this is one team-up book that I'll be sure to always make time for. Read Full Review

As earlier mentioned, this series is basically all in good jest and just overall fun to read. There's no serious plot, and it's kind of nice to see our favourite heroes a bit more on the happier side. And for light reading, A + X is genuinely a pleasure, though maybe more of a pleasure if you actually like the paired up characters, seeing as the so called villains have been pretty harmless so far, you have to like the heroes beating them up.

This was a greatsecond issue for A+X, and yet another reason to check out more Marvel NOW! titles. Read Full Review

Overall, the art was, for the most part, really pretty but the plot just didn't make much sense. I liked the way that Rogue was portrayed, but I was not a fan of the way Bachalo wrote Black Widow. Read Full Review

A good second issue for "A+X" and -- like many of the Marvel NOW! launch titles -- convincingly better than the first. Your interest may vary depending on the creators and characters involved, but technically, objectively, this is a good comic, and one I'm looking forward to seeing more of. Read Full Review

Though A+X has its quirks and weak moments, the series can't be accused of not delivering on its simple premise. Even Marvel readers tired of the event machine might want to look beneath the AvX-style cover page and enjoy the simple, lighthearted tales within. Read Full Review

So, don't pick this up expecting anything deep and meaningful - but it is fun. Read Full Review

Oh well, time to leave Wonderland and stop talking to myself in the mirror. Until next month then, an the return of the real Geoff, I bid you all a fond adieu. Read Full Review

Speaking of bad ideas, this comic... See what I did there? Anyway, yeah, this comic was all around terrible. I should have just reviewed Thor and FF instead of this one, but what's done is done. The Black Widow/Rogue story had Widow acting oddly out of character, while the Kitty/Iron Man one just wasn't funny, which is shocking since it was written by Peter David, who is probably the best comic writer of all time when it comes to stirring humor into a comic. In other words, I would highly recommend skipping this one. Read Full Review

A pretty solid issue from Chris Bachalo. Story was witty at times, bland at others.

The art is a definite booster.
