W0rldtr33 #16

By: James Tynion IV, Fernando Blanco
Released: Aug 6, 2025

There’s no hope left at the end of time. The Undernet knows everything Ellison Lane knows—and exactly how he intended to defeat the scourge against humanity. But contact from the last person Ellison expected to see may hold the key to preserving life on Earth.

I'm still having trouble imagining this fitting into Marvel continuity. It probably would have worked better as an alternate reality story. Anyhow, I'm enjoying the character differences of the two Captains (actually, I'm more intrigued by the new Captain, David Colton) and it feels like Zdarsky has something to say about the nature of war. This is definitely not your grandpa's Captain America.

I started to feel that Void Rivals was meandering and going nowhere until this issue (21). Right off the bat we are jumping into the beyond bizarre Skuxxoid story, really fleshing out this character … or rather characters. Then it’s back to the main story and in just a few pages there is a quick status change for one faction. What we really came for was the story of Darrk and Solila - their r more

TBH, it was brave of North to pick up what could be considered a poisoned chalice - a project that was built up with months of hype only to fall flat and get swept under the rug. Seeing him offer a bit of cheeky meta-critique through Mia's impatience with Wyn is somewhat rewarding (Wyn does get gradually less sympathetic through the course of G.O.D.S. #1-8, and the final issue spotlighting him doe more

I thoroughly enjoyed this issue. I'm not usually a fan of the magic side of Marvel. Don't care about Dr. Strange or any of that stuff. I somewhat enjoyed GODS, but more for its potential than what it actually was. I'm not a big fan of Doom either, but I appreciated the character building this issue did with him. The dialogue was fantastic, the art was solid and the story was interesting. I e more

This isn’t Jed McKay‘s worst writing, however we‘ve seen it all before. Age of Revelation is nothing new. In fact, it’s a rehash of Age of Apocalypse, a concept that didn’t work for me in the 90s and doesn’t work for me now ( or the half a dozen other times Marvel has tried to shock us with an alternate version of the X-Men). I’m not interested in other versions of the X-Men and I do more

Pretty decent, although it doesn't feel like an X-Men book. This feels very YA/teen (I would say 'New Mutants' instead of 'teen', but this group doesn't hold a candle to the OG New Mutants). Trying to be patient in allowing the new characters to breathe, but we really just need 1 book with new teens, not 2.

I could write a detailed review, but I just don't know where to begin. Everything about this issue is horrible - the story, the art, the dialogue and especially the forced shipping of characters. Let's not even talk about Ororo's pregnancy test. It's as close to a saccharine Manga comic for girls as a superhero comic can get. You'd have to pay me to read another issue of this poor quality.

Yeah. I think the crowd that loves the current X-books doesn't really exist. They are trying to cater to a demographic that doesn't actually read superhero comics. And you can't trust the professional reviews anymore. I don't believe that any of the pro reviewers actually think this is good.
