Rated T
Surprisingly, Black Vortex has been pretty great, with only one issue to go. I say "surprisingly" because the past few events and cross-overs and floundered towards the end of the story, but Black Vortex still has my attention. The writing is delightful and the art is near perfection. The only problem with this chapter is that is services the story between Kitty and Peter more than the story for the Black Vortex. Regardless, you should still check this one out. Read Full Review
The Black Vortex crossover has been far longer and more drawn out than it needed to be. But the good news is that things finally seem to be moving along at a faster clip now that this storyline has reached its penultimate chapter. Read Full Review
Though there are a lot of problems with the issue, it's hard to fault the creators; it's more of a problem with the schedule. From a sales perspective, it's understandable to want to throw together the X-Men and Guardians of the Galaxy for as long as possible. The problem is that a story that is this long needs to really justify its existence. Though the people of Spartax are the victims in this chapter, the book itself the real victim of "The Black Vortex." Read Full Review
Weird dialogue at times, but pretty decent.
