"APOCALYPSE WARS" CONTINUES!
The ALL-NEW X-MEN's entry into "APOCALYPSE WARS" starts here! The ALL-NEW X-MEN are on a mission to step out of the shadows of their predecessors and write their own futures. And none are more determined to forge their own way than Evan Sabahnur, who is allegedly destined to one day become the genocidal villain APOCALYPSE. But now, by way of an unintentional intervention by his teammate Beast, Evan is brought face-to-face with Apocalypse himself...and also brought face-to-face with the question he's been running from: Can you escape your destiny?
Rated T+
It's a solid kick-off for this title's coverage of the Apocalypse Wars (whatever that is). Read Full Review
Overall, the issue is a fantastic entry into Apocalypse War. While the last few issues of ALL-NEW X-MEN have been somewhat lackluster, this one picks up the pace regarding character and action. While the art may not be overly outstanding, it is still easy to call this book great. Read Full Review
All-New X-Men might just be the most vital addition to the growing Apocalypse wars crossover, given the fact that one of the core team members is a teenage clone of the world's oldest and most evil mutant. At the same time, it's unfortunate that this series is covering the same ground as its sister X-books. Read Full Review
I've been hoping to see "All-New X-Men" up its game, and "All-New X-Men" #9 feels like a step in that direction. The rest of "Apocalypse Wars" is full of possibilities, and -- with such a strong character portrait of Evan -- it looks like Hopeless, Bagley and Hennessy are heading down the right path.

As much as I have love the duo, they are losing me with this series. The characters are so similar that it becomes hard to really care about them individually. There is a bit of mystery as to what is going to happen and a bit to grasp on to there. The art sticks to Bagely's fun style so there is not much there to be upset about. It is the writing that doesn't seem to have a lot of heart in it. So it really does not make this book something you want to get excited about.
