    My only complaint about All-New X-Men #11 is the cast – or lack thereof. This is a team book, and yet this is the fourth consecutive issue that has focused solely on the Beast, or the Beast and Kid Apocalypse. What about the rest of the team? Having read this title from issue #1 of volume #1 up until now, I can honestly say this book is at its best when it includes the whole cast, or most of characters – I believe the same can be said of any team book. When a team is deconstructed, in some cases that signals changes in the team or a change in the direction of the book. When members of the team are present only part of the time, we readers begin to take this as a sign that some of these members may not remain a part of the book. Hopefully, issue #12 will bring us back to a full cast and a story that will revitalize the direction of this title. Read Full Review

    I just can't help but feeling we just wasted the past... what was it, sixteen months telling this story.  The very definition of an anti-climax, this would not have been satisfying as the end of a one-part story, much less the All-New strand of the Apocalypse Wars "epic".  Mark Bagley still delivers, and gives the overall package a far less lackluster feel.

    There's a sense of inevitability to all the events that occur in this finale, and it's not even a "tragic" or "beautiful" kind of inevitable but a more or less boring one. Read Full Review

    All-New X-Men #11 is still much more vibrant than some of the other dour X-titles at the moment, but this month's installment can't avoid ringing hollow. Read Full Review
