  Newsarama - Draven Katayama (loudlysilent)

  Fans new and old will appreciate how Carey writes characters' personalities, particularly Wolverine, Cyclops, Storm, and Beast, true to their depictions in current titles, with added classic tones: Cyclops shows more level-headedness than his belligerent, Bendis-written self, and Beast shows more caution than his Battle of the Atom experimentation. While Cyclops, Wolverine/Storm, and Magneto will remain at odds for the foreseeable future in X-Men comics, this self-contained No More Humans event is one these characters will reminisce about for their unlikely unity in the face of crisis. Carey, Larroca, and Ponsor deserve applause for not only bringing fragmented characters together, but doing so with dialogue, tension, and attractive panels that keep us wondering what's next.
