It's the best X comic.
• Something is lurking in the shadows of Central Park...
• ...a monster that steals mutants in the night.
• And when GENERATION X takes it upon themselves to investigate...
• ...they might just find themselves face-to-face with an all too familiar threat.
Rated T+
GENERATION X #3 has a certain unerring charm with its focus on the new team's dynamics. With a deeper focus on the psychometric mutant, Nathaniel, each of the mutant misfits gets a time to shine. Narrative hiccups do distract a bit, but with hints of plotlines to come, bright days are ahead for GENERATION X. Read Full Review
"Generation X" #3 promotes a new team of X-Men to the forefront! Read Full Review
This issue lays the ground for what will seemingly be the book's modus operandi: Interesting characters in relatively mundane situations. Read Full Review
Generation X is a fine comic and I hope it finds an audience, but I just don't think it's for me. The teen dialogue is a little stiff, I don't particularly care for any of the characters and it's going to be more pure superheroic than I'd like. But that's all on me. Read Full Review
Moving forward, we may finally see the series finally take off. While this new threat may keep our young team close by in the neighborhood. We'll see how the teams attempt to handle the issue on their own. Jubilee being portrayed heavily in the covers has taken a back seat and doesn't get much to do. With a cool unique art style, the pages still suffer from off-putting facial expressions and similarity face designs making it hard to pay attention. Read Full Review
I think I've made my feelings pretty clear by now, but overall I am very disappointed with this title. Uninteresting characters, uninspired storylines and pretty shaky art all add up to a huge let down for this Generation X fan. Maybe I'm just stuck on what this title once was, I don't know…but is that a bad thing? Why not just do a Generation X 2.0? Have Chamber, Husk and Jubilee back together, maybe out to find and help M who's been infected by her brother Emplate (minor spoiler if you didn't read that latest volume of Uncanny X-Men). Anything to have this live up to what Generation X was and is remembered for, not just throwing some random young mutants together with former Gen X members popping up now and then. There was great potential here, but this title has really missed the mark. Read Full Review
That was an unbelievable improvement on the series. The writing is a bit darker, which put the characters in a more nuanced light. And the very strange art of the series finally showed its purpose, as it played its role in the oddness of the story. I'm now very excited about this series.
Getting better every issue.Glad i gave the series a try cuz it's been interesting so far
👍🏽👍🏽
Alright finally mission time! I love the mix of characters in this group. Each voice is very unique and entertaining. The art is ok nothing really to pine over. I am excited what Strain is going to do with the new old "villain."
Strongest issue so far, this series is improving as it goes. The characters are growing on me...
The Generation X class assembles on its own to confront a mysterious threat in Central Park. Nate's powers get some excellent spotlight, Nature Girl gets a rare chance to talk, and we even find out what janitor Andre's Deal is. Amilcar Pinna's art is getting more consistent but it's still aggressively odd. That might be an asset with a stronger, more confident script, but Christina Strain's work isn't quite solid enough to carry the unconventional visuals. This issue is the start of the heartwarming "come together and exceed expectations" story this title needs so desperately, but it's handled in a strictly by-the-numbers fashion.
I say goodbye to this series right now. I don't like the art und the story isnt going anywhere in my opinion. There are better x comics out there to spend my money.
