Parental Advisory
Magneto #11 may not be the best entry in the series, but it's far from the worst. More to the point, it's much better than the first two issues of Avengers & X-Men: AXIS, with Magento's reality check being very intriguing. Highly recommended. Read Full Review
On premise alone, Magneto #11 is pretty cool. The Master of Magnetism compiling a super team of Marvel's most illustrious villains in order to take down the newly resurrected Red Onslaught for the sake of humanity?! It sounds like a fan-fiction fever dream come to life and it reads much the same, writer Cullen Bunn delivering a rousing Axis entrant that'll leave you pumped for the bad guys. Read Full Review
Overall I liked the concept for the issue I just have some major complaints in timing of when things are happening and how long they happening for. Mix in the fact that two of Magneto's recruits don't seem to be people he would care to recruit, let alone care about, and what could have been one of the best installments in this series fell pretty flat for me. I don't blame the writer or the artist for the issues here but the event itself. Read Full Review
Magneto #11 reads like we skipped over the end of Act 1 of Bunn's play, and into Remender's script. Axis' formulaic elements push Bunn, and Erik, out of his own story. Read Full Review
Bunn really gets Magneto's character
Completely skippable issue, which does not give us any new details in terms of the event.
Another series derailed by an event...
so in the marvel universe, you can just go around rounding up super-villians and you know exactly where to find them and they all agree to help even though they may hate you or have never met you before?
And it only takes like an hour because the fight is still going on at the same place?
and most of them aren't mutants, which is Magneto's whole thing! Very out of character. Seems like Magneto didn't pick the characters, some writer did based on what would sell comic books.
It just seems a little too...I don't know, easy.
good concept, poor execution.
This is where I drop this series. Fuck crossovers, man. You can't make me buy another series to know what is happening in this one. You just can't. Poor Bunn, he must be pissed off. Besides, what Magneto does in this chapter is ridiculously unbelievable.
