One of the few big two books I'm willing to pay $5 for. Aside from Ultimate Spider-Man, this is the best series Marvel is putting out and I'm afraid it won't get the recognition it deserves because everyone is buying shit like Amazing Spider-Man and X-Men instead.

This was really creative in pretty much every aspect.

The premise itself is an interesting twist on an old formula, and the presentation makes it where you're seeing something that would normally be reserved for a live action/animation hybrid but instead its just Dave Wachter doing a very cool blend of different art styles, and also delivering some gorgeous colors here.

The book takes a surprisingly serious approach to its inherently wacky premise, but there's an undercurrent of good humor to the everything. It manages to feel grounded but also fantastical given what happens in the issue.

I've been looking forward to this one for a while and it didn't disappoint. This is a comic worth picking up. more

This series hasn’t missed a beat. I was disappointed to learn that Daniel Warren Johnson was no longer drawing the series anymore, but Jorge Corona’s style is nearly identical to my eyes.

The story is really good, but I just wished the art was better. If the art was by Nic Klein, then this would be a lot higher.

A good ending for the creepy Frozen Charlotte arc. A pity about the art, but the story is still good.

Reviews of this book are getting ridiculous

This was a confusing hodgepodge that was the latest disappointment in the Fall of X. Gerry Duggan's script throws various plot elements at the wall, hoping some will stick, but ultimately leaving us with a disjointed mess. The issue lacks focus, bouncing from scene to scene without a clear narrative flow or explanation. Characters randomly show up from out of nowhere when they have either been MIA completely or are part of other ongoing stories.

One glaring weakness is Duggan's portrayal of the female X-Men. Gone are individual, complex personalities. Instead, they're reduced to one-note stereotypes, trading snarky quips with little to distinguish them from each other. Its as though he's writing these characters for meme-potential and its infuriating. This shallow depiction is a disservice to the rich history of female mutants, especially for an issue released so close to International Women's Day.

Perhaps the most frustrating aspect is the X-Men's casual approach to violence. Duggan portrays them resorting to a "kill-first, ask-questions-later" mentality, a stark contrast to the core principles of mutants, even prior to Krakoa's laws. The most egregious panel in the issue sees Magik "relaxing" in room of blood-stained walls left in her trail. This willingness to take lives, even in the face of extreme situations, feels like a betrayal of everything the X-Men have stood for for decades.

Phil Noto's art, while generally stylish, doesn't fare much better. The action sequences lack the dynamism needed to convey the power and energy of mutant combat. The panels often feel static, failing to capture the urgency of the situations at hand.

X-Men #32 is a disappointing issue through & through. I'm not expecting much from this series before Krakoa ends, but I'd at least like to enjoy reading an X-Men comic until then. more

While I did see this as an improvement over last month's issue, I'm still not entirely invested in this. I feel as though this series is just coming out to give readers something until the new relaunch as opposed to just ending until the summer. Don't get me wrong, this is a solid read on both the writing and art fronts. However, I just feel as though this could be something more.

This is really a great series. Joshua Williamson doesn't shy away from the violence. Though I wish the connection with the Transformers would finally emerge. With only one issue left, I doubt that is going to happen. If they hadn't made that the driving force of Duke's motivation, I would have been fine leaving it out, but it doesn't seem as if Duke's arc is going to be even partially satisfied in this series. I do like the introduction of the GI Joe characters here and giving us the reason for Major Bludd's patch. Great GI Joe action.

High octane action, massive fights, Bludd survives (that sob), but is mutilated, Baroness and the crew make a break out and we end on a cliff-hanger. The issue was jam packed but didnt feel rushed to me. What more could have been added? Art was great, very kinetic. We get some great plot advancement here as well.

All in all, couldn't really have asked for more. This issue was just what was needed. Williamson is doing a great job here. more

To summarize, this comic establishes two groups of beings who are governed by their god, who behave like police organizations in their respective fields:

THE-POWERS-THAT-BE (The powers that are/that define us): this group of beings ensure the correct magical balance of our world, that is, their powers are based on magic. We will call it TPTB. Allies in the Marvel Universe: Doctor Strange, Clea Strange, Voodoo, Wong. Members Wyn, Dimitri
THE-NATURAL-ORDER-OF-THINGS: This group is responsible for keeping at bay any threat that is governed by logic, physics, that is, science. We will call it TNOOT. Allies in the Marvel Universe: Reed Richards, Black Panther. Member Aiko.

Plot
Aiko asks The Wolf for help to take her to The Living Tribunal because she feels guilty for having turned Mia away in THE-NATURAL-ORDER-OF-THINGS/TNOOT, cutting off her magical opportunity and thus her future can never be linked to THE -POWERS-THAT-BE/TPTB.

Aiko had to make key decisions to be able to have her interview, which included important sacrifices, but the decisive one was losing her eyes. Wyn hates that they treated her like this and wants her to teach a lesson to the Gods who punish them mercilessly but never assume the consequences of her actions.

This comic shows a different version of mythology, with touches of intense and raw science fiction and fantasy, this journey of Aiko is shocking, this new version of The Living Tribunal is very fresh and chilling. Reading this comic, even though it is complex at times, ends up being a delight and attracts more and more.

Art
Full of details that are elevated to another level of quality with different textures, where they show a universe of places, beings, designs that are as overwhelming as they are amazing.

Summary
Aiko seeks to be tried by The Living Tribunal and the sanctions applied to her are harsh and disproportionate, Wyn does not accept these types of punishments that continue to go unpunished. more
