THE ONE TRUE KING RETURNS! And he’s here to exterminate the witchbreed! King Arthur and his army turn Otherworld into a battlefield—again. Backed into a corner, Betsy Braddock makes a desperate choice that will reshape the realm—and mutantkind—forever. The fate of the Starlight Citadel is at stake, and if the Citadel falls…so falls all reality.
The final few pages are breathtaking and leave us with a fantastic cliffhanger. But as we get reminded of in the issue. Betsy Braddock always comes back. Read Full Review
'Excalibur' continues to dig deep to show love to all the magical and fantasy continuity and lore from Marvel's past as the war for Otherworld takes a decided turn. Not an ounce of page space is left unused as the artistic team brings their A-game as usual, giving us one of the most gorgeously detailed books around. Read Full Review
Im very curious how this end scene sets up an issue of Betsy and Saturnyne being separated from the team. Its no secret that Excalibur still has their suspicions about Saturnynes intentions. Maybe the two being stranded is what they will need before going forward. Read Full Review
There are notable shifts in the power dynamics and a thrilling story is laid out ahead, but here it's a matter of arranging the pieces of that story as performed by magic, both literal and metaphorical, which isn't nearly as exciting. Read Full Review
This was a fantastic story with tremendous art. This was the kind of book where as soon as i finished it i wanted to read it again. There are a couple panels when captain Britain was with Saturnyne that were so beautiful I had to take a moment to admire them
This is a good, exciting issue.
This issue has a dense, wordy script, but I appreciate how skillfully the choppy scenes are woven together. The STRIKE scene feels a little filler-y. The art is pretty strong for characters, but I get the sense that the action could be more spectacular. Overall, it's an ambitious issue. Not wholly successful, but well above average.
