    This issue is more of a highlighted, slow-mo action scene with dire consequences happening in the end. Nonetheless, this is just another issue of X-men Legacy! It's nothing but great. I could never recommend skipping it. You get to watch Charles Xavier's crazy child attempt to take on Cyclops, Xavier's...legacy, I guess. Pham's art won't let you look away, and Spurrier's writing might just teach you a thing or two. Read Full Review

    Will this be the end of mutant-kind? Will this lead to Legion's death? Or has this all been another one of Legion's long term plans to set things right with the world possibly leading to the restoration of a more powerful, or at least confident, Blindfold? Damn you Simon Spurrier for giving us such a great book that always leaves us wanting more! Read Full Review

    Weekly Comic Book Review - Hugo Robberts Lariviere Sep 22, 2013

    It could have been another traditional fighting issue, yet the smart use of this series theme along with the strong voice and identity provided by David Haller makes this issue a surprisingly potent one. With the work of Koi Pham and Rachelle Rosenberg adding to the effect of Simon Spurrier's writing, this issue is very solid. Read Full Review

    Population Go - Chris Lemmerman Sep 25, 2013

    Another month, another stellar issue of X-Men Legacy hits the stands and reduces my brain to a pile of mush as I try to work out what's going to happen next and couldn't be further from the truth. Spurrier continues to turn out exemplary plotlines, whilst Pham's addition to the creative team seems to be a definite step in the right direction too. If my love for this title isn't obvious yet, I'm not sure what else I can possibly do. Maybe buy you all a copy to read for yourselves? Read Full Review
