Jun 12, 2025Eve Ewing and Carmen Carnero has crafted one of the best X-books on the stands now. These two ladies has brought a level of sophistication and style, while making sure these characters have depth, and pathos, at a level that I havent felt since Claremont. Mixed with the lush art of Carnero, these two are quietly becoming the MVPs in the X-Office. Read Full Review

Jun 11, 2025As I said earlier, I'm disappointed that this is the end of the Exceptional X-Men run. I loved meeting the new characters and seeing Emma Frost and Kitty Pryde take the young mutants under their wing. Can't wait to see where these new mutants end up! Read Full Review

Jun 11, 2025Exceptional X-Men #10 is a brilliant Emma Frost focused issue that demonstrates how far she is willing to go "for the children and prove that she is a bonafide hero. The tender moments in the issue between Emma Frost and Axo highlight Emma's humanity and empathy. Ewing perfectly captures what fans love about Emma: a fabulous and fashionable icon with cutting one liners and an icy demeanor, but beneath that impenetrable diamond form exterior lies a beating heart bursting with love and adoration of her students.

Although this issue was rightly focused on Emma, there were a few panels that acknowledged the conflicted feelings that Kitty must have been experiencing as she saw Emma laid flat and near death. Just because Kate is my favorite character, I wish she had been given some more space for those feelings, although in the middle of an emergency she seldom wastes time emoting. Perhaps in the next issue, Emma and Kitty will get a moment to process and reach an understanding closer to that which they reached on Krakoa before Kate was appointed captain of the Marauder.

The action works much better here than in last issue and Carmen Carnero's art really shines. However, the mindscape scenes are not so great. Emma's self-gratuitous monologues are so tiresome at this point and Federica Mancin's art is, well... let's just say, most of these new artists, unlike Carnero, have never learned proper anatomy. The result is an uneven book that I half enjoyed, half hated.
