Don't get me wrong, Wolverine vs Cyclops is always cool, especially when it gets this brutal. But the comic is just... It's not great.

A bunch of edgy kids as villains... It's so cringeworthy. Awful. When I was reading the prelude, I thought it could be an epic event. But 3 issues in and it's still just totally forgettable. I bought this book when it was released in my country, but I read it once and couldn't remember a single thing from it. Now I understand why. It's just bad.

Another origin story retold + it repeats some scenes from the previous 3 issues and also repeats the same one message again and again so... Not really good. Not bad either, pretty motivational, but... Not like it was needed at all.

I don't know, it's just boring. It throws in these origin stories of charaters I barely care about. It would be better if it was just one dumb meat grinder. It would still be pretty bad then, but at least wouldn't make me wanna sleep.
