You Don't Read Comics - David Harth
Jul 21, 2022New 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

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.

It's a shame Ayla's run doesn't go much farther from this point. Here we may just have the definitive Magik story arc.

I can't lie: this was touching and emotional. Little Illyana was a very cute character and I liked the story. Thumbs up!

This issue is kind of an alternate take on the premise of the last one: another Young-Magik-Old-Magik team up. For me, this one hit way harder and was much more impressive. The structure of the script is elegant; some of the prose is labored, but some of it is wickedly sharp (and funny). A lot of the art is gorgeous, and even the sketchier panels are powerfully expressive. There's terrific character work all through the Rasputin family here. Though I'm not clear on all of the callbacks and foreshadowing, it all combines into a fully satisfying story between the covers. It's done so skillfully that it really boosts my confidence in the author's big-picture plot; I'm sure that they're sure exactly where this story is going.

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.
