I enjoy reading the occasional issue where the talking and socialising take precedence over the action, however, it seems that not much is happening in this title at all, since I started reading it a few issues ago (yes, because of Storm).I’ve never been a big Avengers fan, but they have had several great runs over the years that I enjoyed, with great art and writing and interesting character dynamics. This isn’t one of those.
The art ist very average in my opinion - readable, but very sketchy and just not very beautiful.
And the writing - let’s just say X-Men and Avengers are my least favorite books right now, and it can’t be coincidence that McKay is writing both of them. Yes, something is happening, but it all feels very underwhelming, almost like a half-assed attempt at reviving a corpse. more

I was always a Dazzler fan, but this is just identity cult indoctrination with some disco make-up. The art is decent, but I have to give the worst rating for this shameless sham.

I never read a Wonder Woman issue before, so I was hoping for this issue to be a great jumping on point, but this wasn’t it. The story definitely feels ambitious, but I understood literally nothing about what’s going on or who the characters are. Apparently WW’s lover died and it’s told in a way that is maybe very artistic, but not very welcoming to new readers. The art in this book is simply amazing, but it didn’t help making me care for the character. more

A solid story, but I’m not a fan of this Manga-influenced art, especially not for Superman

I haven’t read a DC title in many years, but with Marvel going downhill, I decided to give the competition another chance. The art in this book was the best I could find in the current DC titles, so I decided to start with Detective Comics 1090. Let’s just say, it blew me away. A perfectly written, perfectly drawn comic.I hope this team stays on the title for a long while.

This issue was torture. While there is an attempt at actual storytelling, nothing really works. It’s particularly frustrating when Simone sets up an important character moment for Calico, but then makes her change her attitude completely out of the blue. Rogue credits Gambit’s people skills, but he did nothing to cause such a dramatic change from one panel to the next. Weird!
There’s also a lot of hugging and cutesy victim mentality stuff that obviously caters to the younger woke generation of readers, but will most likely p*ss off older readers. I certainly have had enough of this title. more

I really enjoyed this first issue. It has some great character moments, good dialogue and an intriguing story that makes me want to come back for more. Something about this series feels very nostalgic and charming, despite the fact that it’s an almost completely new team of West Coast Avengers. The biggest problem for me is the inconsistent art. It’s great in some places and quite horrible in others. Something tells me that with some more practice, Kim could become really good though. more

Waid and Samnee perfectly capture Batman's broodiness and Robin's youthful exuberance. The book feels cinematic, atmospheric and nostalgic, but not dated, which is a huge feat to accomplish. I haven't read a Batman comic in decades, and this was a wonderful re-introduction.

If this is what came from the ashes call the crematorium and tell them you got got a turd in your urn.

Woke identity crap disguised as an X-Men comic. At least the art is solid.

The concept of Rocketfellers (horrible name by the way) reminds me of Mark Millar‘s Chrononauts, but the writing and art are not on the same level. I like the family though, and with a more capable artist, it could draw me in.

I must be reading a different book than everyone else. I thought the writing here was extremely lazy. There are far too many characters, which dilutes the entire story. The Outlier team is too big to be added to an already large team. The entire story hinges on that trip to the hospital. If Rogue had not held that child's hand, she would be dead. The child handed her EVERYTHING she needed to fight Sarah Gaunt. She did nothing on her own. There was no arc for her that allowed her to beat this superior foe - she was simply handed everything. Horrible, horrible writing. Not to mention this is a book that is bi-weekly. Why? No one can answer that question for me. It's not selling well and yet it comes out twice a month. I'm going to be dropping it soon myself.

What the heck is happening? Marquez's art is great as usual, but I don't get this story at all. What am I missing here? How did the Hag become what she is now? Who are these creatures suddenly appearing to fight the X-Men? For a conclusion to the first story arc, this issue doesn't provide a lot of answers.

Both the writing and art are sub par. The art especially is just atrocious to look at.
No. Just no.

NYX is just as preachy as Exceptional X-Men, but where that book is dull and depressing, this one at least has some fun and excitement.
