There is a reason that this title is the best mutant title on the stands today. This issue just confirms it. What a great story. Logan makes a wonderful narrator. He really sets the tone of despair and angst. His pain clearly jumps off the page. Read Full Review
While this return to the AoA is to the dimension and presently surviving characters (as opposed to a return to the era of the 1995 event), this will probably be of some interest to fans of the classic story--though there's little more than a glimpse of a handful of characters in this issue. Fans of this version of X-Force and this title itself will likely feel right at home. This isn't the greatest jumping on point ever, but it would not be insurmountable if you know anything of even a couple of the characters and have an interest in trying the story. Read Full Review
Mark Brooks artwork proves an excellent foundation for Dean White and co-inker Andrew Currie and a refreshment from last month's dabble in mediocrity. Brooks' character models are fantastic and his action sequences are fluid, heart-pounding, and dynamic. This is as good as it gets when considering a good ol' fashioned comic book romp.

The last few issues of X-Force have generally struggled with the restrictive single issue format, and it's pleasing to see a longer arc help push the series back into top form. Read Full Review
Even if you've not read anything Age of Apocalypse related, you'll still really enjoy this issue of what is by far the best X-book on the stands. Read Full Review
With its mixture of strong characterization, continuity porn, and plot-focused storytelling, "Uncanny X-Force" is undoubtedly the X-Men book for X-Men fans. With Kieron Gillen on "Uncanny X-Men" and Mike Carey on "X-Men Legacy," the line is under the auspices of some fantastic writers right now, and Remender sits comfortably alongside them. Let's hope he sticks around. Read Full Review
A great start to a new story arc, and I cant wait to see who the new big boss in town is. Wouldnt it be ironic if it were Cyclops? Read Full Review
While I’ve never read any comics that take place in the Age of Apocalypse universe, I still really enjoyed this issue. Although the art wasn’t my favorite, telling this comic through Logan’s point of view was fantastic.
