New Mutants #27 is yet another wonderful chapter of this story. Ayala, Reis, Duursema, and Redmond are saying goodbye to Magik in epic fashion. This is a great story, and its sad theres only one issue left. Read Full Review
The penultimate chapter of "The Labors of Magik" is a wonderful and creative chapter ahead of the finale. Read Full Review
All the pieces are coming into play in an organic way, with little bits of information also being drip fed to allow us to consider the positives and negatives of the decision Magik has come to and the possible consequences of her actions. Read Full Review
NGL I cried a little at "I would be proud to grow up to be you". And full marks for taking poor Madelyne's character-wrecking, editorially-mandated fall from grace and making a meaningful and insightful discussion about repentance out of it. Add Reis's typically exquisite work and this is a perfect issue.
Honestly this Magik arc started uneven but im really digging what vita is doing. They've crafted an interesting narrative and managed to harken back to some older canon. The old stories still matter when given a good writer.
Id like to see more of the like other roster though. I miss chamber and mondo.
I always enjoy Ayala's writing and absolutely marvel at Rod Reis's art.
