You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff
Jun 19, 2019NextGen would have worked quite a bit better on its own outside of the confines of a rigid multi-title event. There are a lot of subtle moments in and within the student body of a totalitarian state run by superhumans that could have carried tremendous impact with this particular group of characters. Too bad it wasnt given a longer timeline. Read Full Review

Jun 19, 2019Well this miniseries did have some good issues! And if we do get X-men books besides the ones that are already been announced, really hope we get Ed Brisson back on to write this young team. That Uncanny run, at one point I was hoping they would kill off these young mutants, but now I enjoy them! Now only did I enjoy this team but also Department X, a team who I have yet to enjoy in their own book. The art really made the issue enjoyable as well! Read Full Review

Jun 19, 2019Overall this is a very underwhelming close to what was the highlight of Age of X-Man. The final issue was rushed and the mini-series could have done with another issue. Also it feels like the over arcing story plan of Age of X-Man stunted the growth of the mini-series inside the event. This is unfortunate but it is what it is. Read Full Review

While rushed, I do like the idea of this final issue. Unfortunately, it didn't exactly hit the mark. This series was fun though and probably the best of the Age of X-Man stuff.

A solid ending, I liked that it was a bit of a downer, This one was for sure my favourite.

While Glob retains his memory of everything that's changed in the AoX, his attempts to share his insights with his friends end in tragedy. It's an excellent story and it enjoys some surprisingly strong art, but the script could do more to fulfill the sad ending's emotional potential.
