DIVIDED WE STAND CONCLUSION Cyclops and Emma battle Iceman, Warpath, and Angel in far-out San Fran! Plus, Colossus, Wolverine and Nightcrawler go toe-to-toe with Omega Red!
*Interestingly I typed Jean and Scott in my first draft without realizing it. This can be seen as a compliment to the writing team for recreating the old-school X-Men comic dynamic in this issue. Of course, it might also mean that it is time to bring Jean back from the dead. Read Full Review
In the end, "Uncanny X-Men" #499 finishes up with a bit of a whimper, but here's hoping that next month's #500 kicks it off with a bang. Read Full Review
I pine for the X-Men I grew up reading about... The outlaw mutants, saving a humanity that hated and feared them. Not the X-Men who allowed Sentinel's to stand guard on their own front lawn... That idea was so ludicrous that I can still barely acknowledge it... ####ing Sentinel's protecting the X-MEN!!!! Insane... Hopefully the upcoming issue's, including #500 can bring some of my interest back to my former favorite comic book. Read Full Review
As a whole this issue is really nothing special, but it's still a decent read. Brubaker fits in some genuinely funny character moments and the art teams, different for each storyline, make this a nice looking book. As a whole, this issue's the same solid we come to expect from the X-Titles, but also completely forgettable. Read Full Review
Better times are most definitely ahead for what's effectively the flagship book of the X-Men franchise, and it's without much sadness that I bid Brubaker's solo handling of this book adieu. Most would be wise to skip this one and just wait to see what crops up next month. Read Full Review
