The X-Men have battled valiantly against their powerful psychic foe, Cassandra Nova, since the moment she framed Jean Grey for murder on the world stage. They have been hunted. They have been hated. And now...they can fight no more.
Rated T+
X-Men: Red #11 has been a ride that you wish never stopped. I remember when Cassandra Nova popped up as the villain and I was wary of what this could turn into using an old foe. Never more was I happy to be wrong about the way I felt. This was X-Men storytelling at its best when the fight for peace took on a whole new meaning. No twists, or need for shock value. Just a reflection of the kind of world we fight for today. It's never easy, and its hard not to make compromises, but someone has to take that stand for things to be better. Read Full Review
Tom Taylor and company ended the run of X-Men: Red perfectly. Read Full Review
This was a thoroughly satisfying and well done conclusion. Taylor does a great job of showing these heroes coordinating as a team and working together to stop the threat of Cassandra Nova. Everyone has their part to play and all of their strengths come into play. It shows the reader why this particular team of mutants is so special. Read Full Review
Jean Grey's time as leader of the Red team has come to an end, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. X-MEN RED #11 is an explosive issue, with tons of excitement and character development. As an added positive, the surprise ending offers something for X-Men fans to look forward to in future titles. Read Full Review
As unfortunately short-lived as it is, X-Men Red is one of the best X-Men stories of the past decade. Read Full Review
The best modern X-Men comic by a long shot.
A series that will be greatly missed
A very good if not premature ending to the best team book at Marvel. Tom Taylor understands what makes the X-Men great. He also showed a remarkable ability at writing the voice of Jean Grey and has positioned her as the clear leader of the X-Men and a voice we shouldn't let return into what many saw as boring and flat in previous years. The ending is just as high stakes as the lead up. If you have been reading you will likely keep reading, but as we transition into Age of X-Man and complete the weekly story of Uncanny X-Men I hope Marvel has learned something of what made this book work and to hopefully let Tom Taylor continue the spirit of this book in another X-Men title. We have ended al the color code X-men titles. I imagine that Weapon more
probably my favorite Marvel run from Tom Taylor, its either that or Friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. tom taylor is my favorite comic book writer, and any person who wants to get into x-Men needs to read this book. It's fantastic!
I liked the way they solved the problem and I want to know how they stuck an empathy in her brain. How did they do it?! Fascinating.
Rushed and a bit off but still enjoyable. Wish Taylor had time to play with these guys.
This issue felt rushed, but I still liked it. I think this series did a lot for making Jean Grey likeable again. At least for me it did.
I think "The Hate Machine" had terrific potential. If it were the backbone of a longer series, with some solid side-adventures salted in between its chapters, it would have been great. Told straight through, it got terribly repetitive. And I think that might be an even bigger problem if you read it all at once instead of month-to-month.
#11: It needed a *lot* more storytelling horsepower - better words and *especially* better art - to conclude the series in a properly triumphant manner. A few extra pages would have helped, too.
jean grey vs twitter trolls is a messy ride
Just fucking dumb
