The Super Powered Fancast - Deron Generally
Feb 12, 2020Oscar Bazaldua offers some beautiful art in this issue. Domino looks awesome and the art complements the story well. The action is fantastic, especially all of the assassinations. A great looking, detailed issue. Read Full Review

Comic Watch - Ross Hutchinson
Feb 12, 2020X-Force #7 is a brilliant balance of James Bondesque shenanigans and emotional introspection and continues to be the best book in the line in my opinion. Read Full Review

AIPT - Ryan Pagella
Feb 12, 2020If you are a fan of espionage films, or straight up just Domino, this is a great comic for you. Even if you don't know much about the X-Men, this is an easy self-contained story that any reader can follow. Aside from the spy bits, it deals with trauma and PTSD. Being a superhero is hard, and some really messed up stuff can happen. This comic doesn't shy away from that. In conclusion: I want more Domino and Sage, 007 style. Read Full Review

You Don't Read Comics - David Harth
Feb 12, 2020X-Force #7 is a great comic. Percy uses it to keep playing with his theme of PTSD that has been running through the book, using Domino and her tragedies to show readers that not everything on Krakoa is sunshine and rainbows and that being a superhero is hard work. Read Full Review

The Daily Fandom - Alex Smith-Petersen
Feb 21, 2020Percy works great in tandem with an array of artists, and Bazaldua and Guru make for an easy transition from series regular artist Joshua Cassara. X-Force maintains a consistent gritty style and tone that distinguishes it from the other current X-books. As long as the art team never loses sight of that, I'll continue to be largely pleased.

Feb 12, 2020Overall, this weeks installment of X-FORCE simply wasnt as flashy, tumultuous, or loud as it has been. I found myself interested but not on the edge of my seat like in the past. Read Full Review

411Mania - Jeremy Thomas
Feb 13, 2020It's effective storytelling, with fun over-the-top action that Oscar Bazaldua, taking over this issue, captures well. Percy and Bazaldua also capture the quieter moments well, including an appearance by Colossus that hints at all is not well there. Read Full Review

Comics: The Gathering - Ryan.L
Feb 14, 2020Overall this is an alright book. It focuses on just a couple characters, and give us a pretty interesting cliffhanger. Hopefully the series will pick up, but this still is still not a terrible installment and you should be able to find something to enjoy. Read Full Review

Prelude: X-Force has been wonderful so far and with what look's like an issue focusing on Domino, one of my favourite mutants, I'm hoping for another great issue. The Good: Love how the abnormally lucky assassinations were shown. Likewise I enjoyed Domino and Colossus' conversation. Interesting cliffhanger. I enjoyed the art here. The Bad: Nothing. Conclusion: An issue that just works wonders for me. Everything I wanted when I heard about it.

X-Force 7 did a lot of things right, but ultimately isn't as good as some of the previous issues have been. Percy writes a great Domino, even though I'm less impressed with his interpretation of Piotr. I also loved the action scenes, especially the ski battle at the end between Domino and the assassin. The data pages were pretty horrible this issue, but overall the good far outways the bad. Great art too.

I'm interested to see what happens with this book. The intelligence branch is always the most interesting part.

A fun spy vs. spy adventure starring Domino!

I wasn't the biggest fan of Bazaldua's art here, especially with Joshua Cassara and Stephen Segovia both previously doing art for this series, but I really liked Percy's story. I thought it was a nice Domino-centered issue with a well-written interaction with Colossus. I also wanted to add really quickly that, honestly, the target in Toronto probably deserved to get shot for getting a pineapple-and-bacon deep dish pizza.

It's a great setup for Domino and Colossus's stories to be explored and Percy delivered a good comic book but to me the art of Bazaldua took some off from it. Cassara needs to implant another set of arms to draw all of the issues of this book because his art makes this so much better.

I love Domino, and this might be the best take on the character. While I am not a huge fan of most of these new X-Men titles, X-Force is different.

X force is always enjoyable. Not a bad issue so far in the series. I like the Domino story they have built up.

Domino tangles with an assassin targeting pro-mutant advocates. The baddy has a suspiciously familiar knack for lucky sniping. Neena also bonds vaguely with Colossus; they're both struggling with PTSD in a way that makes them unable to appreciate Krakoa's utopian spirit. I felt like the writing (particularly in the Colossus scene) was a little too flowery; there's lots of navel-gazing but little real insight. I recognize that the art isn't up to the standard Joshua Cassara set at the start. But Bazaldua and Guru-eFX are definitely trying to stretch in that direction; this issue is exceptional when compared to much of their past work.

"Can't sleep either?" It looks like XENO took more from Domino than just some of her skin. Good issue, with a nice story and some good action. The ending, though a bit predictable, sets an exciting stage for the future.

When I was done reading this I felt I didn't care whats worse is I thought this issue was corny. The art was not for me. It felt too Saturday Morning with the silly smiles drawn on characters to compliment cheesy lines..."Guess Im your Snake Eyes", Or the eye rolling finale when Old Granny wins her last dollar .The whole thing felt like a big misstep. I mean we had that bad ass Beast episode with Issue 6 and then the same Writer gives us this shit? Guess Percy just ran outta luck with issue 7.
