All-New X-Men #36 Review

Ultimate Dr. Doom's energy blast sure has a lot of kick. All-New X-Men #35 ended just as Miles Morales launched a sudden attack on Doom only to be countered by a devastating blast. Issue #36 continues from that super-ultra-combo finisher with a double-page spread of the Doctor surveying his victory. Two sets of X-Men and... Continue Reading →

All-New X-Men #30 Review

All-New X-Men #30 takes a break from the norm to develop and work on some character-to-character issues. Picking up at the swell of a whirlwind romance between Laura Kinney and Warren Worthington III after a night of clubbing and, well, clubbing (literally!), the two go through an impromptu DTR that challenges their notions of each other, especially...

All-New X-Men #28

During the Battle of the Atom crossover, one of the questions that lacked a critical answer was: What made the future Brotherhood of Evil Mutants so angry? Last issue, we got some real answers as Xavier's origin story was revealed along with the beginnings of his partnership with his half-brother Raze. Without a father to teach him...

All-New X-Men #27 Review

The future has returned with an attack on the New Xavier School by the Brotherhood of Evil X-Men. With Raze preoccupying the All-New X-Men in the cafeteria, Xorn takes out the Stepford Cuckoos by hijacking Mindee's mind. That leaves Emma Frost, Scott Summers, and the young Jean Grey to stand up to the mauraders. With... Continue Reading →

All-New X-Men #23 Review

A few days ago, I imagined what I'd ask Brian Michael Bendis if I could get one question in for an interview. "What is it about you that Marvel would put their X-Men franchise in your hands?" Bendis is talented, obviously, and he's shaping up to be the Chris Claremont of this generation. But that... Continue Reading →

All-New X-Men #20 Review

Laura Kinney -- Wolverine's genetic clone -- wakes up in her birthplace, the new home of the classic X-Men who have joined forces with Cyclops' Uncanny X-Men team. Waking up in Weapon X, the facility that created her, immediately puts X-23 into a defensive mode, and it doesn't help that her senses tell her she's... Continue Reading →

All-New X-Men #16 Review

Try saying this all in one breath. The future X-Men have come back through time to correct the current X-Men's mistake of bringing the classic X-Men into the present in All-New X-Men #16, the second chapter of the Battle of the Atom crossover event. Professor Charles Xavier's grandson Xavier, Deadpool, Kitty Pryde, Iceman, Beast, and... Continue Reading →

All-New X-Men #15 Review

Probably the biggest reason X-Men fans should pick up the All-New X-Men series is Jean Grey. Though she's died several times -- at least three by my count -- Grey, aka Marvel Girl, has a special place in the hearts of comic readers the world over. When All-New X-Men launched, it was a chance for... Continue Reading →
