X-Men #11 offers a satisfying mix of teamwork, action, and humor, showcasing Cyclops as both a leader and a flawed hero. Netho Diaz's expressive, high-energy art style perfectly complements the story's stakes, while Jed MacKay's script maintains momentum with tense confrontations and strategic plays. Read Full Review
X-Men #11 begins a solid, fun, complication-free adventure when the X-Men respond to an alert about alien invaders. Jed MacKay's script is well-paced, well-constructed, and well-executed, only suffering from a mildly annoying plot hole. Plus, the art team's output is outstanding. Read Full Review
X-Men still maintains its unique, high octane energy and craziness, and I am definitely still into that. Read Full Review
MacKay's continued to improve his voice for the characters and Diaz's art is fantastic and so much better suited for the main X-Men book. Really hoping they become the main artist for the title.
The “humor” just isn’t funny…like the recent movies, it is trying too hard. Magik fighting with Juggernaut makes sense. The two of them fighting like 8 year olds doesn’t. Scott, who is a master tactician, won’t even listen to his dad when his dad is like “wait, this part is important”. Not believable. But the bones of the plot itself are good, which keeps me reading.
Corsair gets to Earth to warn the X-Men of some danger from outer space for the nth time, but at least the resulting weirdness makes this the most fun issue of X-Men so far.
Anyway, that just means that this wasn't a complete disaster as basically any issue before it.
