What else can I say? Exiles is now the latest addition to my pull list. Take a chance with the first issue, I think you will be more than pleasantly surprised. Read Full Review
Exiles does not abandon Jeff Parker's underlying comic philosophy. Comics should be fun. The art by Salva Espin and Anthony Washington complements this attitude. Recommended especially for fans of super-heroics unladen by continuity or Big Stupid Events. Read Full Review
There's definitely a charm to Jeff Parker's back-to-basics approach to Exiles and the recognizable band of new heroes. The underlying questions of the setup coupled with a friendly, inviting attitude towards the concept results in an enjoyable first issue that's a good indication of the rest of the series. Time will tell if this will be more successful than the last outing, but Exiles is shaping up to be a good time. Read Full Review
In all, this issue has some appeal, with a collection of characters -" Blink, Witch (a variant of Scarlet Witch), Polaris, Forge, Beast, and Panther -- who are popular in smaller, devoted circles of readers, but overall, there is no one character that shines or sells the book based simply upon their inclusion. Fans won't be flocking to yet another Wolverine appearance, nor will they be picking this book up for the big "Yet Another Brand New Day" reveal. This is a bold move by Parker and Marvel, but it worked for the original iteration of Marvel's "Exiles." Maybe this volume will get a boost from its first storyline, which calls upon the Exiles to help Wolverine overthrow Magneto. Read Full Review
Next month I will give the second issue a shot, but this is not a good start. Read Full Review
