The Art is good and solid. I felt the visual contrast of Krakoa to the “normal” world showed the excitement Carmen had being there. David Curiel’s colors knocked it out of the park. Paco Madina and Walden Wong nail the emotions with the characters’ expressions and postures. I thought that this book had a lot of potential, and was proven right. There is a lot two wrap up. Ayala does a great more

RGrayson reviewed Way of X #1 Apr 27, 2021

Since House of X and Powers of X I have wondered if they were going to get around to looking at the ethics of the new Krakoan mutant “Paradise.” The problems there have been so blatant that they couldn’t be ignored. Way of X looks like it’s going to be navigating through these issues. Very promising first issue. I hope they stick with asking these moral questions throughout the series.
