the writings so goddamn bad and unengaging, wtf has happened to x-men
DOUBLE, DOUBLE TOIL AND TROUBLE! A Wanda divided cannot stand……but there are many other things she can do. Chaos comes to Krakoa.
Werneck and Messina deliver some great visuals throughout the issue. There are so many great character moments and characters in use. Every page has some great visual details to go over and enjoy. Read Full Review
X-Men: The Trial of Magneto #4 tries to do a lot of complex things and has a hard time juggling all their ideas within the page count of this miniseries. Read Full Review
I almost hate how gorgeous The Trial of Magneto #4 is, because it feels squandered on this lackluster script. I hope this reads better as a trade paperback because so far, it's not the best. Read Full Review
X-Men: The Trial of Magneto #4 makes the baffling choice to sideline its titular character to the point where the series should have been given a different title. With only one issue left, I at least hope the series ends on a high note and puts the focus back on Magneto while resolving the identity of the Scarlet Witch's murderer. Read Full Review
This is not the Trail of Magneto, this is yet another convoluted Wanda Maximoff story, and we are just the spectators. We are running low on time for answers. At this point, Im seeing this through to the end, and I hope that the end is worth it. Read Full Review
In X-Men: The Trial of Magneto #4, Magneto's almost nowhere to be seen. The real focus is on the Scarlet Witch as she struggles to get herself together in the middle of all this chaos. However, the comic raises more questions than it answers, and the process of how Wanda resolves it, especially with her sons, is poorly executed. The only interesting thing left in this series is finding out who the killer is. Read Full Review
Trial of Magneto #4 is a great comic for someone who hasn't read a Scarlet Witch comic since House of M. Read Full Review
X-Men: The Trial Of Magneto #4 is certainly a choice. This one definitely isn't it anymore for anyone who wanted an X-Men story. It's yet another piece of apologia for Scarlet Witch, but it does have some good moments. Williams is a good writer, but this book is just mystifying. The art is the best part of the thing, at least. Where it goes next is anyone's guess. Read Full Review
Unless the upcoming final issue has some major reveals or retcons in store, nothing else about Trial of Magneto has been worth the price of admission. Read Full Review
This trial is more Salem than Krakoa, and a plea bargain won't save this book from the verdict that it should not be purchased under any circumstances. Read Full Review
Simply one of the messiest ventures to come out of the X-Men's Krakoan era. Read Full Review
Wow I gotta say I sure am glad I didn't have the same reading experience as others. I loved this! From page one I was really impressed with the writing style and great character moments for Wanda. The story was deep and rich with emotions. Wanda grew as a character learning a lot about herself. The artwork was phenomenal! Every page warranted a pause to just take in the beautiful images and sticking colors. This was my favorite issue of this series so far and I look forward to the next one
I didn't dislike this as much as others seem to, but it is paced poorly...
I feel like this series should be titled "The Death of Wanda Maximoff" or something instead of "Trial of Magneto". The latter seems a tad misleading for how much Magneto is actually in this story.
Also, I feel like Williams was on a time crunch when she wrote this issue. Everything feels sloppily thrown together. There are some cool moments, but the pacing kept me from enjoying them.
Honestly, the single biggest problem with this book is its title. It's not really a trial in any conventional sense of the word, Magneto is almost assuredly innocent and was never believably a suspect to begin with.
It's really more of an exploration of Wanda's psyche, her role among the mutants and whether or not they can forgive her for M-Day. And those elements of the book have been pretty good! The Krakoan era has positioned her as an unforgivable monster, a literal ghost story, among the mutants and it would be nice to see Wanda move forward as something more than a punching bag. This series feels like it's trying to reconcile her entire past all at once, and while I think the execution has been clunky in parts, the idea is more
To call this above average requires an almost slavish buy-in to Leah Williams' eccentric interests and more eccentric storytelling style. And as others have rightly noted, "The Trial of Magneto" is one of the biggest misnomers in modern comics.
Ouch!
I feel like this is an issues from another series I missed the first 6 from.
Pointless
Hard to believe issue #1 could be as good as it was and three issues later, we have… this. “Trial of Magneto” is definitely false advertising. Should really be called “Scarlet Witch: Making It Up as We Go Along.”
It’s not that it was terrible. It was just kind of pointless.
Even worse than Issue 3. Wanda is the worst character I've ever seen and this event is a pathetic apology. Also, the pacing is dreadful!
lots of yelling
I remember when Exodus was telling the story of Wanda around a campfire with young mutants. She worked so well as a ghost story in the age of Krakoa, but leave it to a Disney+ show to come along and force a redemption arc.
I liked how this story began. It seemed like an interesting detective story and utilized X-Factor in a way that I think Williams initially intended. Now that we know everything going on with Wanda was because of magic, that just goes and undermines everything X-Factor could have contributed. I just can't understand the reasoning or motivation in this story.
One more issue and this book with Magneto in the title that has nothing to do with Magneto will finally be over.
honestly one of the worst "events" or story that has happened this year. Why is this called the Trial of Magneto when he's barely the main focal point? This should be the "Mystery of Scarlet Witch"
This is very horrible.
This series went from being good to so bad its good
What the fuck did I just read?
it gets worse with every title. I've never seen a screenwriter as incompetent as Leah William, the writing is boring, the script doesn't make sense, Wanda is looking like a slob with no neurons in her head. the way she has no idea what character she's writing. if it had an award for the worst comics ever made, this comic would be champion
Trash
Over the top characterizations, it was so funny when Wiccan exploded at Wanda saying he defended her his whiole life.
It's incoherent stories and charcterizations. Wanda doesn't remember doing bad things because she was ressurrected with only younger memories. Wanda already accepted responsability for her actions and move on.
This mini isn't adding anything interesting to Wanda.
Also Magneto is so bad on this mini
