This is easily a must-read for any Emma fan or X-Men fans of previous iterations, it's both nostalgic and current in a way that's wonderfully balanced for a satisfying read. Read Full Review

Definitely the strongest of the X-Men Black one-shots so far, and hopefully the beginning of a long career for an up-and-coming talent. Read Full Review

Bachalo and Williams tell a rollicking and satisfying story that, most importantly, understands the nuances and complexity of Emma Frost. Theres a lot here for Emma fans to enjoy. Whatever flaws the issue may have, and it has at least one, isnt anything inherently attributable to the issue itself, but rather to my expectations of what it should have done and where its end will lead for Emma in the future. I hope my fears on that score are unfounded, but only time will tell. Read Full Review

It's a short one-off, but 'Emma Frost' is a great story starring the White Queen. You do not have to be an Emma Frost fan to enjoy it. Read Full Review

It can not be emphasized enough how essential this issue is for anyone with a soft spot for Emma, and its plenty enjoyable for everyone else as well. Read Full Review

Emma Frost is a wonderful look at the character and is the strongest entry in the X-Men: Black series. Despite the shaky art, it's a fun read, with an expected but satisfying twist in the end. As the only issue in the series to really bring something new to the mythos, this is a great issue for new readers and Emma Frost fans. Read Full Review

It's a mean-spirited first feature with a mostly incomprehensible chapter of Next Big Thing crossover as a second feature, making for a a mostly unsatisfying read. Read Full Review

Solid. This makes me want to revisit Bachalo's older issues of X-men.

Again, I was not looking forward to this because of the writer. But I really love Emma Frost as a character and I absolutely hate the Hellfire Club, so this was enjoyable for me. Plus, the callbacks to Uncanny X-Men and X-Men Blue is something I'm always a sucker for since continuity being acknowledged makes the universe feel real and lived in.

The whole series gets 7,5

Like for the other I didn't like the apocalypse story. But this team I really enjoy the story of the character on the cover.
Yeah I did like Mojo, but Emma play at another level. It was intelligent and well written.
Ok there is only one thing missing where the hell is Wade's Hellfire club ?

Cover - The variant not bad for once. A little related to what we learn about Emma origines 1.5/2
Writing - Emma is fun, smart & well written. It's a pleasure to see her like this. But I didn't care for Apocalypse 2/3
Arts - Il love Bachelo, I can't tell that the Apocalypse art isn't good. But I find many flaws in some panel, sometime the character, sometime the inking, and not much of background. 2/3
Feeling - If Apocalypse had no part the feeling would be 2/2 because I really enjoy my feeling. But the price is too expensive for only reading one story. 1/2 more

I thought this was good!
