Mar 13, 2024Dead X-Men#3 is a beautiful and fun book that acts as a meaningful companion to Rise of the Powers of X while diverging into its own important plot to protect Xavier's mission from behind the scenes. The series continues to feel inaccessible to more casual readers - one would need an intimate knowledge of HoX/PoX andRoPoX to truly understand the details of their mission - but remains a powerful homage to the iconic nature of Hickman's revolutionary reboot. An enjoyable issue overall, due to Foxe's strong characterization, the varied art styles, and the introduction of an exciting new X-Men team, Dead X-Men #3 is worth checking out as the end of the Krakoan Age comes to a major climax.

I like this, probably more than I should. As I noted before, this is a plot-driven story, not a character-driven one. That means that an issue that seems to dwell on the team re-explaining the current situation to Rachel and the readers for half its length has a serious pacing problem.
And yet, I'm still enthusiastic. The dialogue is never flawed and occasionally great--though there is too much of it. And while collaborative art performances usually drive me nuts, I found each of this issue's artists impressive. They all seem to be working toward a common style, easing the transitions between them.

I liked this more than the second issue, but I'm still not all that invested in this. I did find the art better this time around and I also thought the story was a bit more coherent. However, it's still just not coming together in an incredibly effective way, in my opinion.

Bland characters, confusing writing even for a fairly straightforward story, and mediocre art all make this comic wholly forgettable.
