M-Day has passed and 90% of mutants who had powers no longer do. Sally Floyd, a human journalist, tells their stories.
Overall, Jenkins and company provide a satisfying and well crafted tale in the post M-Day chronology. This comic is not as decompressed as most Marvel titles, and it will be interesting to see what directions this book takes. Read Full Review

The entertainment value of Generation M is a sum-of-its-parts kind of thing. Its got a couple strikes against it, but the story carries the day. The post-HoM Marvel universe has so much to explore and so many facets to examine. Generation M takes on the political and social ramifications of M Day, and cannot help but satisfy. Read Full Review
It's a shame, as Im sure that this book would probably sell more as an arc in The Pulse than it will as a separate miniseries. And it would deserve to. Jenkins writes Jessica and Phil very well, the plot is quite compelling, and as mentioned above, the art team do a wonderful job. The visuals have a detailed and sumptuous look to them that is based on actual detail and texture, and not unnecessary crosshatching or overly enthusiastic rendering, and the more down-to-earth look suits the tone of the story perfectly. All in all, Generation M is a fine effort, but I cant help but feel that Marvel are blindly scuppering its chances at success. Read Full Review

Fans of the X-Men and other mutant-related titles will probably get more out of this book than casual readers like me, but its testament to Jenkins skill as a writer that he still manages to engage me in a plot and character in which I had absolutely no interest before reading this issue. Whilst I probably wont continue to read the book myself, its definitely shaping up to be one of the stronger spinoffs from the House of M event. Read Full Review
