Dust settles over the rubble of Tokyo. What emerges, for better or worse, will define the next generation of mutantkind. PLUS, as the survivors return to Utopia, there is a reckoning between Wolverine and Teon. One way or the other, it's another unforgettable issue of Generation Hope.
Overall, then, "Generation Hope" is fast succeeding at molding a group of all-new characters into interesting additions to the X-Men stable, and this issue emphasises their unique qualities and sets up the directions they'll be heading in, both individually and as a team. If the three issue fight scene the book opened with made you worry about the book's pacing and balance, this issue should allay those fears. In many ways, it reads like a first issue. With the status quo established, we can now look forward to seeing some stories told in it. Read Full Review
For every step forward that this issue takes, it takes several steps back. I have faith that Kieron Gillen can do some really great things with these characters, but I'm not sure how much longer I want to stick around to see what these things are. With greater focus in both the writing and the art, this would be a dynamite book, but as it stands, it just isn't living up to its potential. Read Full Review
