    At this point, I just can't recommend X-MEN LEGACY enough; it's a complex, challenging story of mutant destiny, peppered with real-world ideas presented in a shocking and occasionally hilarious way. It's a battle cry against stagnation, and it promises and fulfills the idea that the superhero genre can tell any story worth telling, even mature ones. If you aren't afraid of it, X-MEN LEGACY will absorb you. Read Full Review

    Issue #7 is the most purely enjoyable installment of the series so far. Is it too much to hope that will translate into higher sales for once? Read Full Review

    X-Men Legacy is nothing like any other comic book out there. I love the bravery of this creative team to push away the known quantities and head into unexplored territory. It is not easy to do something unique and creative with characters like Legion and the X-Men, but Spurrier and Huat are managing alright so far. This series won't be for everyone, it isn't an easy read, but it is very rewarding, very silly, and very strange. If you ask me, comics need more of all three. Read Full Review

    X-Men Legacy #7 is fun times, folks. Hop aboard this weird-ass space coaster. You get a tale of a young dude trying to find his place in the world mixed with the inner-mind story of a man trying to carve a path to sanity, or at least stability. Read Full Review

    As I've said in the six previous issues, X-Men Legacy is a strange, weird, and wacky title that stands out among its X-Men brethren by having a very individual approach to the characters and situations that mutants often find themselves in. Whilst books like All-New X-Men and Uncanny X-Men are dealing with the bigger problems, X-Men Legacy is nipping them in the bud before they grow to the level that would require the intervention of the bigger X-teams, whilst being an altogether more personal book. Add in scathing sarcasm and hilarious plot developments and you've got a title that easily deserves your attention. Read Full Review
