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 al more

I'm not following the Beast World storyline, so that part was worthless to me, but I did enjoy the Brother Enternity portion. We got a few good scenes with Raven here and the artwork continues to be good. I thought it cut a little too short, which is weird to say about a Tom Taylor book. I would have liked to see this battle continue for another issue. He was Tamaranian, which was a good twist, bu more

A little bit of a step down from Issue 2, but not by much. The story presented here is still intriguing, especially with how it ended. Of course Church of Eternity had something shady going on, this was expected. I'm really interested to learn more about it, though, and what that aforementioned last page was about. As for the art, it wasn't my absolute favorite here, but it was still pretty solid more

I actually enjoyed this issue better than the others thus far. The fight scene with Sarah and Rogue was good. I'm not sure about the index finger and pinky in - that was weird. Not sure I liked the whole backstory for Gaunt either and I have no idea what's going on outside with the cultist. The best of these is when Simone focuses on a smaller number of characters. I remain with the opinion that i more

This continues to be a flawless book. Great character moments, especially with Rogue's internal dialog. The villain is very interesting, I still like the new kids even though they didn't get much to do this issue. Rogue, Gambit, Wolvie, Nightcrawler all were written excellently and their personalities shone through. Great art as well, Marquez is a fantastic choice to pick up the torch left by more

Very well drawn and written. The plot is mostly unique in the X-Men world, but still leads to some annoying situations. I'm assuming Havok either didn't realize his jacket also had a camera or forgot because I don't think he'd intentionally spy on Polaris, but that's a bit dumb and annoying. The dude had JUST SHOWED him the jacket cam. Minor quibbles like that aside, I'm enjoying the book. An more
