X-MANHUNT - COLLATERAL DAMAGE!
With Charles Xavier on the run, EMMA FROST and KITTY PRYDE reckon with their own dreams and fears for the future of mutantkind. AXO feels pushed away from the team and pulled closer and closer to charismatic technologist Sheldon Xenos. But is Xenos who he claims to be? (Spoiler: He is not!)

Exceptional X-Men #7 excels in character-driven storytelling, balancing Emma Frost's stylish and reflective opening with Axo's emotionally charged arc. Eve Ewing's writing makes Axo's predicament feel painfully real, and the art enhances every moment, from Emma's glamour to Axo's descent into uncertainty. While the pacing stumbles slightly in transitions, the issue's powerful ending ensures readers will be eager for the next installment. Read Full Review
