Resurrection of Magneto #1 takes on the perspective of the iconic character, Storm, and humanizes her in a way I haven't seen in a while within recent X-Men Comics. Read Full Review

The Resurrection of Magneto starts and ends on a visual of Magneto, a man struggling, a man on the edge. But the story is just as much about him as it is about Storm, and the incredible connection and camaraderie between these two powerful mutants. It is a comic you do not want to miss if youve been on the Krakoa and Arakko train since day one. Read Full Review

Resurrection of Magneto #1 promises to provide a well-crafted if perfunctory saga starring two of Marvel's most beloved characters, and that's enough to maintain interest. Read Full Review

Focusing on Storm attempting to bring Magneto back from the dead, unless you're really into that aspect, this one's a pass. Read Full Review

Some may find the Resurrection of Magneto #1 intriguing, however, I dont think it will be people who simply want a fun, action-packed, exciting, escape from reality for 30 minutes. I know this is hard to say after one issue, but Im out. It was too hard to understand, too hard to follow, and way over the top in order to bring Magneto back. And for what purpose? We dont know. Hopefully, Ewing can bring this ship back down to earth as the series continues. Let me know what you think, have a great week, and God bless! Read Full Review

This is phenomenal art, as well as a compelling start to this story

Ewing says goodbye to the X-Men with a big swing that offers up a Storm/Magneto story unlike any either character has ever had.

A fantastic debut issue for this miniseries. This acts as a nice continuation of Ewing's amazing X-Men: Red series, and it was also cool to see Blue Marvel and Taaia from Ewing's Defenders: Beyond miniseries. Back to this issue, though, I know the point of this is to bring back Magneto, but Ewing does another outstanding job of writing Storm here. He truly "gets" the character and I'm always blown away with how great of a job he does writing her. Plus, Vecchio's art was also really nice in this issue and I enjoyed just looking at very page throughout this. All things considered, this looks like another hit from Ewing and I'm really looking forward to seeing how the story unfolds.

The commitment to Storm in the Ewing-Verse is strong even in a story about Magneto. Enjoyable with potential and phenomenal art by Vecchio.

Art: 4.5/5

Much like RotPoX #1, I found a lot of the in-story explanation for what was happening to be mediocre at best. Its barely explained how Storm enters the Waiting Room (might be for the best), and then once she’s there, Tarn & Ashake basically inform us we’re in a world of magic and there are no real rules. It’s a bit of a lazy way to allow for this limited series to unfold, but I can’t blame Ewing as this wasn’t a story he came up with himself. This was all Marvel setting up the pieces for the post-Krakoa relaunch.

Where Ewing’s fingerprints are evident is in the amazing character moments for Storm, who he had written better than nearly any writer in the character’s decades long history. Seriously, give Ewing a Storm solo series and we’ll likely get a masterpiece…an Immortal Storm treatment perhaps??? A guy can dream.

The rules-less magical world did allow Luciano Vecchio and colorist @davcuriel to craft some truly jaw-dropping panels, particularly during Storm’s confrontation with Tarn. Paired with Ewing’s perfect writing for the character, every artist who has been paired with him throughout his time with Storm during the Krakoan era has done an amazing job visualizing Storm’s personality and power.

Overall, the stakes in the first issue didn’t fell high as there’s almost no chance the series doesn’t end with Magneto and Storm back in the real world ahead of this summer’s relaunch, but that doesn’t mean we can’t savor the last few issues of Ewing’s time with the Goddess of weather. more

Meandering and a lot of pointless conversations that could be just a page or two, but are pages and pages.
