Do you think it's really cool to use almost only 1 and 10?
Through the mysterious powers of a young girl named Layla Miller, a group of heroes have been shown the truth about how life used to be. Rocked by the revelation of what has occurred, the heroes head to Genosha to face Magneto in a do-or-die mission, with the fate of the world hanging in the balance.
All in all, its a mixed issue, and one which has not gone to any great lengths to win me over on the whole House of M event. Whilst I admire the way Marvel has handled such a large crossover (I admire the way the core title subtly references events from tie-in issues without ever making them feel like essential reads), my simple reaction is that the House of M concept just isnt enough to justify such a huge ballyhoo. What might have made for a neat Avengers or X-Men story has been ill-served by the amount of hype and marketing which has gone into its creation, and perhaps this has made a certain degree of disappointment in the series inevitable.
