Age Of X-Man: The Amazing Nightcrawler #1 |
Feb 24, 2019 |
This looked and read like everyone involved in the creation couldn't wait to get this homework done. I try to find SOMETHING nice to say about it, and it's that Meggan is featured in this book. Not the character from Excalibur but some alternative version of her, completely free of personality and/or inner conflict, but still: the name and costume were correct! |

Cardboard characters playing out info dumps. This is what happens when you get your news from sensationalistic websites and news shows: superficial and undifferentiated hyperbole and phantasies about hyperviolence and civil war. Though it's a clever business move by Ales Kot to drop this at a time of peak-alarmism and Trump-Tweet-journalism. I can feel the hate, alright. (Not to say this can't turn into something more interesting, but the first issue isn't very promising) |

It's tragic that the AMAZING art by McCrea (and the colors by Spicer) got wasted on this. While the writing itself is not bad, the story idea seems just so bland and predictable. And I also don't get, why the writers used such a slow pacing and so much exposition for the kick-off of a mini-series. But they did write the characters well and I guess it will be a decent collection when done. |

Love the unique pacing and the fantastic art on this. It's the right kind of confusing, where you want to find out more. And it does feel a lot like old school Vertigo, which gave a series the time to get going, instead of creating a sales pitch with the first issue. |

I am astounded about Prince’s capabilities. The mix of complexity, psychology and straightforward genre storytelling reminds me of the best moments of Vertigo in its heyday. And Whenever I think I got Prince worked out, he surprises me anew. Must be the most exciting author working in comics today. Just wish he would expand beyond then anthology format and would start a long form series. |
