Learn the secret origin of the proto-mutants How long can Storm keep Cyclops from taking control of her team?
David Lopez's art for this series has been consistently high quality, and he doesn't let up here. Colossus might be the bruiser on the team, but Storm's icy expressions make her far more intimidating than a muscular metal man could ever be. Lopez ramps up the visual intensity right in step with Wood's increasingly dire plot, making for one of the best X-Men stories on the shelf. Read Full Review
I don't know if, post-Marvel NOW! we'll have more "X-Men" comics from Wood and Alvarez. I hope so, for our sakes.
