    While I'm feeling that the on and off again control of his powers is getting a little old at this point, I still have to say that Spurrier is writing one of my favorite current titles. Read Full Review

    IGN - Jesse Schedeen Oct 16, 2013

    The art on this series has always been haphazard at best, and this arc in particular ranks among the weaker ones. Khoi Pham's art is never consistent in terms of detail, but in this issue it isn't even consistent in a basic sense of style. His characters vary from plain to distorted, and not just because the issue bounces between the real world and Legion's mind. The pages are too often muddy and unclear, failing to take advantage of the escalating conflict. Read Full Review

    Another arc comes to a close, but like this week's Superior Spider-Man, it just means that more tories have started rather than one coming to a conclusion. Spurrier has always said that he knew how X-Men Legacy would end, and he seems to be getting ample opportunity to move the pieces around and make sure that it ends under his terms, which is good news. More fun is still to be had, and this issue is a prime example. Read Full Review

    Weekly Comic Book Review - Hugo Robberts Lariviere Oct 20, 2013

    There is an interesting conflict at the center of this issue, with some terrific dialogue as well as some good characterization and concepts, yet the contrived plot twist along with the weaker art makes the issue suffer a bit as a result. It's interesting, yet it could have been better. Read Full Review
