I love Lanzing and Kelly, and NYX was a pure delight. That said, this comic feels a little too fast and a bit incoherent to me. I’m very intrigued by all the developments regarding the Phoenix and the White Hot Room, but this book was tough to follow nonetheless. I don’t regret buying it, but it was on the weaker and more confusing side in my opinion.

Boring comic book with flat characters. The art is fine, but the writing is incredibly dull. You’d expect a comic about an 80s toy line of metal-covered cyborg bird people to be fun, but this just isn’t. Dynamite’s other licensed comics are straight-up better than this.

I’ve loved Silverhawks toys from the 80s all my life, but this comic feels so lifeless and uninspired that’s it’s made me apathetic toward the franchise. I doubt Ed Brisson will create any new Silverhawks fans with this slow-moving, decompressed origin telling.

Words cannot express how offensive and horrendous I find this post-Krakoan era of X-Men. The battles and events of this issue feel out of place and utterly unbelievable, if not incomprehensible. The writing here is just poor, and it makes no sense to me why Scott would just abruptly give up his pursuit of Xavier between panels, more or less negating the plot of this entire story arc. If this story is just to line up a better upcoming comic by Jonathan Hickman, that’s fine, but on its own it is a dreadful failure. This feels like a story meant to promote and empower the rest of the X-line, but with literally half the books already cancelled in the next few months, it even fails at that. Abhorrent. more

If Jonathan Hickman wrote an issue of Star Trek, it would be this one. A brilliant, complicated masterpiece.

Insulting to anyone who loved the end of the Krakoan era. A blatant and sloppy hack job to retcon away one of the most poignant portions of the Fall of X. Reeks of editorial mandate to sweep the Fall of X under the rug at any cost.
