All in all, this will be the best book you read this week Read Full Review
Uncanny X-Men #14 is a plot-heavy chapter but is able to squeeze a lot in and not feel bloated or boring. Rosenberg knows when to cut around, giving all of these plot threads an excellent sense of momentum that keeps things moving while still setting things up for the future. Larocca's art looks great, but his action scenes could use more fluidity and a feeling of movement. All in all, this issue continues the streak of quality this book has been on since X-Men Disassembled ended and maintains it's pitch-perfect rehabilitation of Scott Summers. Read Full Review
Rosenberg and Larroca put together a great issue that will please all X-Fans. Let's hope this is just the beginning. Read Full Review
The art by Salvador Larroca is gritty, intense and beautiful. An amazing looking issue. Read Full Review
UNCANNY X-MEN #14 is an extremely satisfying read for anyone who's ever enjoyed an X-Men comic. Matthew Rosenberg is a treasure X-Men fans should cherish. Read Full Review
Some resoundingly satisfying payback against enemies of the past. As well as touching base with familiar faces and resolving some old issues. Not even one single complaint here. Read Full Review
The team has been killing it with recent issues and this is an example of that. The X-Men are back to desperation and feel like they're fighting an uphill battle, like they should. They're no longer over powered to the point they have a mutant for every solution and now have a vision as to where they should be going with clear goals and something of a plan. This is the beginning of something that feels great and after a long time with some detours, the X-Men are back to greatness. Read Full Review
Larroca provides stellar artwork and Matthew Rosenberg writes the team with a sense of camaraderie the infuses each scene with joy. The issue ends with the team toasting to small victories, and that's an apt reaction to this issue. Read Full Review
Uncanny continues to right the sloppy wrongs of the past few years of directionless X-Men stories. If Cyclops' hit list is any indication, then at least the next six months of X-Men stories should be something all new, all different, and definitely exciting. Read Full Review
With a clear, confident vision for what "This Is Forever" is supposed to be Matthew Rosenberg crafted the best issue of this Uncanny X-Men relaunch. Both the pacing and character work were on point throughout Uncanny X-Men #14. If you are an X-Men fan I highly recommend picking up this Uncanny X-Men story arc. It is a good starting point for both new and older readers. Read Full Review
Even if you aren't totally sold on this book, the confrontation in its closing pages is one that many X-fans have been waiting for, and like any good cliffhanger, it's a powder keg of potential. Read Full Review
Rosenberg and Larroca struggle to deliver an entertaining and comprehensive story in UNCANNY X-MEN #14. The timeline of the issue is too complex and disjointed for readers to easily grasp -- even though everything that happens in UNCANNY X-MEN #14 is fairly basic stuff. UNCANNY X-MEN is looking more and more like a filler series made to keep Cyclops in the spotlight while the other X-Men endure the Age of X-Man. In order to reorient this series, Rosenberg needs to give the current arc a stronger goal that will keep the storyline and the characters on a more definitive track. Read Full Review
I'm not a big fan of all "Disassembled" story arc. I don't hate it but for me it was kind of disappointment in some aspects but I understand the necesary of its existence for the future that is already Rosenberg building to the franchise. Being said that, after issue 10 the things are getting better and better and issue number 14 is the living proof of that. This comic book has everything. A stunning intro, plots that already care us, good action secuences, characters development, panels that shows the X-Men in all their glory, the art of Larroca is so good, maybe it has faults but for me is just good as the story and the colors used by Guru-eFx fits very well. The chemistry between all characters is great and I already said this from issue more
Mathew Rosenberg is hitting the right notes in this new X-men iterarion, can't wait for the next issue!
This was still really good. I love the tone of this series.
Good good, everything is good here.
It's good to be back on track. The boys are back baby!
THE GOOD:
-This series is still really good. I love where Matthew Rosenberg's taking this series.
-Artwork continues to be excellent.
-I thought the beginning of this issue was good, if a bit staccato.
-Dark Beast continues to be one of the more interesting characters in this series.
-This issue had a solid storyline that I really enjoyed.
-I think Jono makes a solid addition to the team. I'm excited for more of him.
-The end looks like it'll lead to interesting things.
THE BAD:
-Is it just me, or does Cyclops' hair look really bad this issue. Like, distractingly so? Like they were going for the nostalgia factor, but just made it awkward. more
