IT'S A PERFECT DAY IN MADRIPOOR...OR IS IT?
Of course nothing can ever go right for the X-MEN - even when they're exploring the streets of MADRIPOOR! But, then again, what did they expect? Sunshine and lollipops? It's freaking Madripoor, guys!!!
Rated T+
Though not the best entry of the series, X-MEN BLUE #6 is certainly an entertaining one. Read Full Review
Cullen Bunn slows down the pace so we can get to know Jimmy Hudson, but this series deserves more consistent art. Read Full Review
No sunshine and no lollipops to be found in X-Men: Blue #6. Is it ever really a perfect day in Madripoor? That is the question you have to ask yourself here and still it is just another day in this crazy place. You're either looking for a good time or you're looking for some trouble. Hank, Jean and Jimmy got the best of both worlds here and this was worth the issue to enjoy. Read Full Review

X-Men Blue #6 was a pretty good comic. It didnt do anything to astonish me, and it does have its flaws. However, the flaws are drowned out by the books charms, and the overall experience was a good one. Read Full Review
Long-time readers, collectors, and completest will want this issue, but it's disappointing the interior art fails the way it does here. Although the writing is improving, I wouldn't be surprised if casual readers passed on it, which is frustrating. Read Full Review
This issue feels very much like a fill-in, even though Bunn offers some small advancement for Cyclops and Magneto's shared antagonism towards each other. But when it comes to the X-Men, I want more than just filler. Read Full Review
I understand peoples criticisms with the art but I for one actually love it, this is such a great series so far, can't wait for more.
The writing is good, the artwork is excellent. But Cullen Bunn has yet to dive into a strong narrative unique to his book.
I am not sure if this was a filler title used to help the team get caught up, but this was a rare weak moment in this X title. There is some thrown in exposition to explain some of what we already knew. A night on the town bonding moment that did not have enough chemistry to make it convincing. The art seemed a bit rushed and not very thought out. In all it felt like a piece that would have been cut if the story ran too long.
Jean, Hank, and Jimmy kill a boring night by running into the Raksha, Madripoor's edgy new Patch-inspired superhero squad. Horrendous filler like this makes a double-shipping schedule hurt twice as bad. The art by Ray-Anthony Height & Ramón Bachs is an incredibly jarring shift from the book's established style, and Cullen Bunn's script barely even tries to convince us that this isn't completely skippable - it certainly doesn't succeed.
Felt way too much like the characters, writer, and artists were trying to kill some time, so my time felt waisted.
Poor art, I really don't like it at all. The story is OK, but nothing more. Worst issue of the he reboot so far.
Wow the art was terrible. Story was just ok.
