EXTEMRINATION #3 looks, once again, absolutely stunning thanks to Pepe Larraz and Marte Gracia. Ed Brisson adds in some fantastic characterization to the mix. It continues this bombastic miniseries with panache. Read Full Review

Extermination #3 is a must read for any X-Men fan. Read Full Review

Very few questions are answered in this chapter but the threat of the villains gets stronger. Ahab is becoming a more menacing presence. Nathan Summers is an interesting time cop. The art is just as strong as when the team worked on Avengers No Surrender. This issue gets a recommendation. Read Full Review

Extermination #3 is the middle point of this journey. The X-Men already aren't the same as they were prior to the first issue. Heck, they're not the same at the end of this issue as they were at the start except there's still two more issues left! Brisson, Larraz, Gracia, and Sabino do good work here, and it's more than enough to keep my attention on Marvel's (not-so) merry mutants. Read Full Review

The event continues at a breakneck speed and delivers excitement that's not expected and very welcome. It's another example that events can work and work really well. It brings together so many different threads and delivers weaving in old and new. Add in fantastic art and you've got an X-event that's one of the best in recent years. Read Full Review

Extermination #3 easily hurdles the high bar set by the previous two issues, adding some interesting ideas and keeping the plot moving. Read Full Review

Ed Brisson, Pepe Larraz, Marte Gracia and Joe Sabino deliver another action-packed, chapter in Extermination #3. It's the kind of adventure Marvel mutant fans have loved throughout the years. Read Full Review

For a limited series, Brisson is doing a great job with the pacing of this issue. Even though there are some plot details that haven't been revealed yet, there is enough action and mystery left in this story to keep me interested in the next issue. Read Full Review

Extermination gets another strong chapter that isn't quite as jaw-dropping as its first, but avoids the pacing pitfalls of its second. Read Full Review

X-Men fans new, old and lapsed need to be checking out Extermination. Brisson and Larraz have made the X-Men exciting again. Read Full Review

This is an action packed, well-written (slightly familiar) story told and illustrated with style, verve and more than a few hidden jokes. Read Full Review

Time for the Original X-men to go home and Kid Cable is collecting them, however Ahab has an agenda and wants one of them for himself.Will the X-men return home or will this all end in disaster. Read Full Review

Extermination #3 was a big improvement over the first two issues of this event. That is not saying much but the quicker pace and elevation of Ahab as a viable threat helped make this a much better issue. There are still parts of Extermination that need improvement in order for it to be a must read story. If Ed Brisson can turn those things around and keep the momentum created by Extermination #3 going than this could turn out to be a successful X-Men event. Read Full Review

I loved this story. Even if I find it laughable the ex/future X-force telling they do thing more brutally & will kill Cable ... How did we pass form that too ... "Join us " ^^
I also have a trouble with Tabitha telling Domino & Cable had a thing. Because in X-force that wasn't Domino but Catseye taking her place. And when they find the true domino the team have to split from Cable just before X-cutionner song.
But that tell I liked how ahab control X-man (I wonder what will be the fallout for them).

Cover - The connecting variant. Not very good & a little related because young jean as a huge part in this issue. 1/2
Writing - Love how that was made. 3/3
Arts - Love the layout & the panel even if some don't have background. 2.5/3
Feeling - I eager for more. 2/2 more

Enjoyed it but a bit of a quick read and that's with me admiring the beautiful art by Pepe Larraz wonderfully colored by Gracia as usual!

Exciting, action-packed and still room for decent character work. Pretty great mini so far.

Feels like a filler, but nice moments and great art.

It is a bit difficult to keep track as we jump between teams rapidly, I'm starting to lose interest.

THE GOOD:

-The art is great. Those who have read more than 1 review by me know that this is no rare occurrence.

-This series has a great cinematic feel to it. That is a very important element of a big-event style series that is done well here.

-The action scenes were really well done. This is mostly due to the art, but there's no denying the obvious quality present in that area.

-The deaths are still really felt, which I appreciate, especially considering this series is named, "Extermination."

-The series will definitely read as an excellent epic-event, due to the epic feeling that mainly Larraz captures, but Brisson chips in here as well.

THE BAD:

-The writing doesn't have me. It doesn't add any depth to the series, anything more than basic dialogue. Very disappointing.

-The characters aren't good enough for me. I think that's mainly because there's too many of them, but still, they don't compel me enough.

-The plot isn't really that interesting to me. It is just too bland for me.

-This issue isn't very memorable. I think it reads way better in trade, but it still should stand out as a single issue more. more
