Monkeys Fighting Robots - Brandon J. Griffin
Jan 13, 2018Part three of this story was going to be the make-or-break issue, tilting the scale heavily onto the positive side. Cullen Bunn is doing his finest X-Men work with an art team hellbent on keeping the explosive and bright spirit of X-Men drama alive and well. Read Full Review

Jan 11, 2018There is a certain amount of running in place to pad out the storyline. But once the pretenders stand revealed, this "meaningless" tale feels a lot more important in the long run. Read Full Review

Cullenn Bunn finally bounces back with a great X Men Blue storyline. After hus great, underrated Uncanny X Men run, Bunn gets the chance to play to his strengths with a complex multi issue run which makes good us me of the X Men history to move the story forward in an interesting way. The best time displaced X Men story since Bendis left. Hope it doesn't fall apart at the conclusion.

The time displaced X-Men finally make it back to their time and find out what is really going no with the X-Men who have taken their place. I am not sure if it was meant to be a twist but the culprits seemed pretty obvious. This is a time related story after all. It does find a way to throw in a surprise when the team decides to take on an unlikely ally. The dialog in that exchange was a lot of fun. I absolutely love Silva and Benedetto's art. This has been an enjoyable arc.

The team returns to its Silver Age-ish home time and the local X-Men stand revealed as imposters. The nuts and bolts of storytelling are handled well here. The dialogue is in-character and entertaining; the art is gorgeous. Cullen Bunn's strategic writing decisions leave me cold, though. On the single-issue level, he's using the "final page cliffhanger villain reveal" trope for what feels like the millionth time. The arc as a whole suddenly turns into a sequel/homage/ripoff/fanfic for Battle of the Atom, ground I am definitely not interested in re-treading. This arc has been a long journey to a destination I don't much like. While the car I'm riding in is starting to feel comfy, that doesn't justify the trip. Maybe I'm coming down with Stoc more
